Frommer's Review
This place has definitely upped the ante along this stretch of coast. A sister to the popular, upscale boutique Xandari Resort & Spa in Alajuela, this beachfront boutique resort is very similar in terms of design, style, and aesthetics. All the accommodations here are large, private villas, with high, curved ceilings and loads of artistic touches. I especially like the open, mosaic tile showers that let out on to lush gardens. The Maxima villas here are the top option and come with their own private plunge pool. Most of the villas are beachfront, but those that aren't have large gardens and a wonderful sense of seclusion and romance. Note: In order to encourage the enjoyment of the villas, beach, and surrounding nature, the rooms have no televisions. The open-air seafront restaurant serves excellent international fare, with an equal emphasis on healthy fresh ingredients and creative cooking combinations. By early 2008, they expect to have a full spa built and operational, again, similar to their wonderful spa in Alajuela.
