The view from our place was great, and the room was large. This room has a bathtub on the balcony, but it had no stopper. We requested a stopper. The extremely friendly staff said they would get us one. That never happened. We were there 3 nights, and there were never beach towels available. The very friendly staff said (both in the morning and in the evening) the towels were in the laundry. We asked multiple times and pointed out they’d told us that before. Again they were very friendly but we never got beach towels. We ended up buying some in town. Our room was cleaned once in the three nights we stayed there. All of this would have been more understandable at a lower cost hotel, but our room was between $500-$600 a night.
Stay somewhere cheaper for the same experience. The staff is great but apparently have no power to help with ways to make the stay better.
Also, I expected bugs, but some people may not. Tons of ants all over the room and a big scorpion in the shower.

Let’s just start by saying that the hotel is great and the staff are just amazing. Would come back. The location of the hotel is right next to the beach and so easy to grab a free surfboard rental and head to the water. The free yoga was definitely a plus as well. See photos of some of the wildlife we saw from our balcony.

A negative is that there was 153 stairs to get to our room. If you are active it’s fine just something to note! We had some bugs in our room during our stay mostly millepedes and a cockroach (possibly came up the drain?). Our room was also advertised as a jungle view but half of it was jungle and half construction of some kind. Just felt a little misled with the photos online.

Total disappointment! 🤨 The accommodations (La Costa) were NOT at all like the pictures, much less what was expected. The advertisement described it to be one of the better establishments in Saulita: it wasn’t! It definitely was a waste of our money. The furniture was dated and dirty. You couldn’t even enjoy the view from a sitting position.. you had to stand at the counter in the kitchenette. What was the point of having an ocean view room? The room wasn’t very clean, especially, the bathroom. The worst part were the centipedes, yes, the centipedes that were crawling all over the floors and on the walls. It was disgusting and uncomfortable. So much for relaxing! When it was brought up to the establishment they were very matter of fact, and responded by saying that the grounds are sprayed routinely but they (centipedes) come out seeking moisture. During the night, you had to be careful and ensure to put shoes on for fear of stepping on them. 😬. In addition, our room didn’t have a hair dryer, I asked for one and waited 2 hours to get one, and this was only because my husband had to go downstairs to request for it, again. The rooms didn’t have phones. Finally, music played ALL night long - you couldn’t sleep. 😟 We checked out a day earlier- it wasn’t worth staying the last night when things weren’t even close to what was expected. We lost $ and time. Your best bet is to consider all options.
A total disappointment!!! 🙁
