Not at all the Pura Vida experience! I booked during the rainy season of Costa Rica (late July) with an anticipated 5 hour long commute from the jungle where I stayed for most of the month. Because of an extreme storm up north the road from my pick up location was blocked with fallen trees. I immediately reached out the day of my arrival (when my car was on the way and turned back) letting them know of the situation . No response. I requested pushing my date back. They thumbs up message - poor communication. So I assumed I would be okay. When the next day came they said they could not give me the days I requested & asked me to cancel (it was already one day into my original stay), they said they would refund me if they received another booking. Long story short they received bookings for my dates and beyond once I cancelled, and just took my money knowing well I had no where else to go and severe weather caused my delay. Super disappointed in the lack of consideration and communication

Everything is beautiful and modern. The shaded pool is a big plus. The shared kitchen is super well equipped. The staff takes care of the place during the stay. My only point to mention is that the bed was super firm (hard); otherwise, everything is perfect.

We stay 5 amazing days, the place is amazing, the pool, the common area and the privacy, and as well is close to the beach, you can go walking and also even close to the town, we are counting the days to come back. Lastly Julieta and Jordan were more than welcoming and were super helpful always asking what we need and how to make out stay better, our dogs truly enjoy staying at the house. Thank you and see you soon.
