Loved the food options. 2 different pools, one with a lot of activities and one more quiet. The staff was outstanding. Big shout out to Gina, our server in the Cafe and Alba our hostess. Drivers Heiner and Nelson made our transportation around the resort personable and enjoyable. We were treated as friends rather than guests. The head concierge Josue was attentive to our every need and the ultimate professional.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Secrets! The views are incredible and the staff are lovely. We enjoyed our Oceanfront room, however, there is quite a bit of noise transfer from outside and other rooms. The room was clean and beautiful! The pools were amazing and the drinks were great! Great entertainment and music. This was our first time staying at a Secrets resort and we would definitely return.

Gave this property a three because the staff could’ve been a bit friendlier, kind of just referred us to an app that wasnt very user friendly, there was no hot water in the shower the first day, the gift shop was insanely expensive, and communications with room service and

Property overall was really nice. Great tropical aesthetic, landscaping well taken care of and pools nicely designed. The rooms though could have been nicer. They’re nice but quite small and not sealed off from outside apparently. I was stung by a scorpion on my first night and response for this should have been faster. They just gave us free massages for the inconvenience.

When it rained the roof in our room leaked pouring water into living, we were told that they had made several attempts to impair this, but that it's still leaked every time a heavy rain came. The staff left towels and buckets from when it rained to the end of our stay. It was not a $1500 a night room because water pouring in.

We absolutely loved our stay! The lobby was very far from our room and required transportation to reach, and with such a short stay, we didn't get back there for our VIP benefit. In my opinion, they should have had it ready for us when we arrived so we wouldn't have to chase them for it.

Great hotel and spot in Costa Rica. We loved the staff and activities. Ronnie the bartender at the Aqua bar makes the most amazing drinks! Our house keeper Olga was excellent. Our room always looked like we had just checked in. Great food, great drinks, great location!
