This place has the million dollar view! It's very clean and well kept. You don't need a 4x4 to get up there. You can get up to the property in a regular SUV that has decent clearance because the road is bumpy, steep and narrow. It's close to everything you'll need during your stay.

Amazing views above a long stretch of jungle canopy straight to the ocean. Saw lots of wildlife. Swimming pool is beautiful. Peaceful, private decks with each room. Nice common area with tables and view. Owner could have been friendlier. Cleaning staff were very friendly and pleasant. Highly recommended.

Beautiful views!!!!
This small hotel is situated high on a cliff. It has spectacular views. The owner is very pleasant but has strict rules. For one you cannot put toilet paper in toilet or you will be charged $300 for any damages. I’ve never seen that before in all my travels. The road leading up to hotel is in terrible shape so make sure your driving a 4x4. Other than that it was lovely!!!! A free breakfast would be suggested as there is no coffee machine and place very isolated. Grazie Marco I look forward to seeing your new pool your planning to put in. That would also be an added bonus. Ciao

Amazing view
Let me start with the view which was priceless and our favorite spot was the balcony. This is a a boutique hotel with few rooms. Please be aware that the route to get to the hotel in the mountain is very rough and for somebody that is not familiar with the route then going out at night is not an option specially if it is raining. We went out of season so basically we were the only ones in the hotel. The decoration is kind of old and specially my husband complained about the smell of the pillow. It was construction going on in the hotel and improvements are in there way so most likely at least food and drinks can be found in the hotel in the near future. Be aware that no TV is in the room so basically is nature and you! Bring a book and enjoy the quietness of this place.

Good, clean property with Marco as welcoming host - fabulous recommendation to see the sunset and eat at Caracalas. The view was fabulous and jungle noises added to the ambience. Only downside is the property is about a 5 min drive up a steep hill. Think this is Expedia not the owner but not a 5 minute walk realistically, which is what we hoped for.

Beautiful property and view!
We enjoyed our stay in Mal Pais at this beautiful location with an awesome ocean view! The room was also beautifully decorated, very clean and comfortable! The covered patio is great to relax in the morning and at sunset. The bed was comfortable and the shower is large with hot water. It is a short distance from the beach, restaurants and shops. The owner was very helpful in directing us to restaurants and the beaches. We would stay here again and recommend it!

Positive: The place has an excellent view, nice balcony, about 3 min away from the beach. Marco was very responsive and helpful. I recommend driving a 4x4 since the way up is a little bit steep and rocky. The room is quiet and secluded surrounded by nature. Negative: The shower did not work properly.

We really enjoyed this place! Clean, like new, it was one of our favorite on our trip! We arrived in the early afternoon and saw howler monkeys, parrots and toucans, the view is breathtaking every time you look at it. We loved our stay and Marco (the owner) was awesome and very helpful with anything we needed. Highly recommended!!!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The hotel is located a thousand feet high, I drive my car and I could not get, after four attempts arrives, the road is full of holes with a depth of three feet, super narrow, only a car can go up or down, super dangerous to fall. The hotel has no light on the outside, we got to the room with the light of the phones, the key did not work properly, the room super old, no TV, very ugly bathrooms, the owner of the hotel received us in pajamas, no staff, no Lobby, no reception , not seen. This House that claims to be a hotel has more or less three rooms. I did not stay to not put my children in a dangerous situation, I asked the money that page $540 and the owner refuses saying that I should have read before booking. We went to Tropical hotel that is half a mile, a hotel with pool, breakfast, in perfect condition, restaurants, TV, etc. for $80 dollars a night, hotel in this area cost between 60 to 80$ and I paid 135$ the night. Don't make the same mistake. Expedia has to remove this Hotel! as soon as possible!!

Owner was less than welcoming. The property was beautiful however the location was difficult to .
No coffee, but a coffee pot, no soap but a shower. A pipe broke so the water was limited. The room was clean the furniture modern.

A true Costa Rican beach experience
A beautiful BEAUTIFUL hotel. The attention to detail in the building and the furnishings is exemplary, Marco the owner has done an amazing job. Secluded but with an amazing view, I spent 3 perfect days here and wished I had time for more. The walk to the beach, bars and restaurants is do-able and Marco is only too willing to help with your information. We’ll miss Italia at the World Cup Marco! Grazi mil
