Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was truly amazing. The rooms were comfortable with great views, featuring a private terrace and spa. The spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated room had a gorgeous, unobstructed view of the ocean and mountains. The housekeeping staff kept everything spotless. The service was exceptionally attentive and knowledgeable, with a touch of personal warmth. The location, though a bit underdeveloped, offered spectacular views of the ocean at sunset and breathtaking mountain sceneries. The dining experience was a wonderful start to every day with fresh tropical fruits and a variety of breakfast choices. The facilities were top-notch, enhancing my overall experience.
I had an amazing time at this hotel! The rooms were spacious and beautifully decorated with stunning views of the ocean and mountains. The service was top-notch and very accommodating. The location was simply breathtaking, offering panoramic ocean views to the west and misty mountain views to the east. The dining experience was delicious and varied daily. Overall, a great stay with just a few minor drawbacks.
Staying at El Costillo was an incredible experience. The rooms, absolutely free with a magnificent balcony view overlooking the ocean below, were immaculate and offered breathtaking views of the Pacific. The service, thanks to the very friendly and accommodating staff, made us feel like family in no time. The location, although a little remote, offered spectacular panoramic sunset ocean views to the west and misty mountain views to the east. The dining experience of fresh tropical fruits and choice of eggs was excellent. It was a true gem that offers great value for money.
