We were at this place at the beginning of june. My familly and I intended to stay there longer, but only spent one night. The rooms are not well kept, the food is ok. The drinks were not that great, they had a funny taste. I love to go swimming in the ocean, but this beach is the ugliest beach... More

Terrible service, food and hospitality. The staff should be trained in Hilton customer service and hospitality for guests coming from other countries, not only for locals. The food is worst than cafeteria food with flies all over it.Thank you for ruining my long weekend!!!!!!!!!!!

We just returned from Costa Rica, where we spent 4 nights at the Doubletree Resort. While the rates were fabulous, and the room included all meals and drinks, I would not return to this Hilton property, specifically because the rooms were less than adequate. Considering the humidity level, I can understand the reasoning behind a lack of carpeting in the... More

We enjoyed our stay, only one night, as the rates for the next night were over double. Enjoyed the Iguana's roaming the grounds, plenty of swim-up bars however the drinks were mostly juice. Meals are buffet style only unless staying 3 nights or more.

My husband and I were scheduled to spend a week by the beach for his birthday week. And as soon as we arrived, we wanted to leave. This is NOT at all like the Doubletree in the US. The rooms were dark, musty, old, smelly, and run-down. Since we booked this hotel using our time-share, we requested for other rooms.... More

Very relaxing and fun place. The staff is very courteous. Beautiful location and awesome food. All Inclusive and great entertainment too in the evening. Three different Pool locations. One for smaller kids too. Nice lawn and relax by the beach, or the pool.
