    The serene atmosphere created by the tropical landscaping complemented perfect mornings with coffee on our porch. The almost private pool felt like a retreat, enhancing our experience immensely.

    breathtaking views
    tropical landscaping
    beach access

    Double Room with Balcony and Sea View offered breathtaking sunset views from the screened-in porch, perfect for morning coffee. The relaxing atmosphere created by the tropical landscaping made it feel like a haven.

    The pool, while pleasant, could use more lounging options for those busy afternoons. Additionally, the slight difficulty in accessing the beach may not suit everyone’s preferences.

    outdoor swimming pool
    screened-in porch

    cozy, cozy, cozy

    We spent 5 nights in a Double Room with Balcony and Sea View, and it was absolutely perfect! The outdoor swimming pool felt like our own oasis, with only a few guests sharing the experience. Each morning, we sipped coffee on our screened-in porch while the sunset painted the sky in the evening—a breathtaking backdrop to our getaway.

    totally recommend ❤️🌟

    surfing point break
    breakfast options

    Staying here with the kids and a friend was awesome! The big game room kept everyone entertained, and the onsite pool was a favorite hangout spot. We enjoyed access to the gardens, too, for some relaxing family time after surfing at the impressive point break nearby.

    My wife says that the breakfast options could be improved.

    tropical vegetation
    screened-in porch
    private oasis
    rocky beach

    This secret part of Costa Rica is very much off the beaten path, but worth every mile down the beautiful west coast! The landscaping at La Ponderosa features intricate tropical vegetation, making it feel like a personal paradise. The upstairs room had a screened-in porch perfect for sipping coffee and enjoying fabulous sunsets. The pool was often like our private oasis with just a couple of guests sharing it.

    Rocky beach.

    A hidden gem for relaxation and stunning views!

The lush tropical landscaping created a tranquil atmosphere, and the screened-in porch was ideal for enjoying morning coffee and evening wine while watching the breathtaking sunsets. The pool often felt like a private oasis, which made our afternoons incredibly relaxing. I would have liked a bit more variety in the dining options available.

    game room

    This place was a proper fit for a rapid stop in Pavones with good price-value balance. The big game room kept everyone entertained, making our stay enjoyable and lively. Grab a coffee early to catch the beautiful morning light outdoors.
