Tortuguero, Costa Rica
Positive section of review
It is a perfect resort, which has fulfilled our expectations. A lovely place - not on the main road, as you need to plan with a 1-1,5h boat trip (eg from Pavona with Pavona Jungle Expeditions - a fast & good service), but once you are there, you are in the middle of Tortuguero National Park. We enjoyed a morning guided boat trip to discover the park and attended a „turtle nesting“ evening offer (a very unique experience, which comes with a price of about 90 USD p.p. - well, there are not many places in the world, who offer such wildlife wonders). By our own - with a free boat transfer from hotel to Atlantic beach - we were lucky see a few young turtle hatching. Food and service was good - as in all Böëna resorts - also, thanks to the excellent roam service! On top, we liked an initiative of the hotel, who offered trash bags: we only walked 10 min at the beach und the big 100l bag was filled with plastic waste…

Nothing, but…(more a joke: all Böëna hotel seem to play the exact same playlist of chilled US cover songs…I know the playlist by now…music taste is different, but more diversity/variety would be cool or play local CR music)
Santa Teresa Beach, Costa Rica
Positive section of review
The villas are very nice, the bed was very comfortable and the open air shower a great experience. They organized a blender for us which was very kind and highly appreciated. Roy was very friendly and always available when we had questions. Above that he gave us a voucher for the hotel restaurant to compensate for the inconvenience that we had to experience due to bad management decisions. The property is very beautiful, well maintained and directly at the beautiful beach of Santa Teresa. In front of the hotel there are many options to eat and shop.

Before check-in they confirmed that we had booked the sea view villa. Upon check-in they said there was a problem with the hot water for which reason they gave us another villa. Turned out that the sea view villa we booked was occupied. We felt that they weren’t very honest with us. Fortunately the next day we were able to change rooms and get into the sea view villa. Unfortunately there is a big construction site next door for which reason it was quite noisy during the day. Also in the hotel they did some noisy maintenance of the villa next door.

The air-conditioning needs to be replaced, it made more noise than a jumbo on takeoff, but didn’t make much difference to the temperature (Room 102)

The A/C in the dorms is on only from 9pm-9am We had to ask every time to turn on during the day and felt uncomfortable, even though they did turn it on we had to argue and ask over and over. More over the website didn’t say that we have only 12h of A/C.
