The owners, the service they provide is super. The facilities with the pool is actually very luxurious and the swing makes it v unique.

The location is perfect to the beach and park .

Excellent service here - good communication by what’s app beforehand and also help with booking tours (we did the whale watching). We were able to check into our rooms when we arrived at 1pm, even though check in was technically 3pm. Rooms are very comfortable with good aircon and nice balconies. Pool and jacuzzi facilities are wonderful. Very laid back place and great value.

Very spacious apartment with modern facilities and design. There's a small pool that I used practically everyday during my stay. Marino Ballena National Park is about 6 minutes away on foot. Along the way to the park, there are a couple of restaurants, as well as a mini supermarket for basic things. There were not a lot of tourists during my stay and I was practically the only guest in the complex, so it was a great respite from the hustle and bustle of travel.

There's an uplifted elegant energy throughout the grounds, from the security guard to the cleaning staff. Our two story unit smelled like rich wood. The layout was excellent design for safety, privacy, and super comfortable beds, chairs. AC was great in each bedroom, fans, curtains all clean and in great condition. The bathrooms lighting, hot water and linen quality were exceptional. It is worth mentioning that there we few mosquitos for Ojochal. The space is ample and well equipped for cooking or working remotely, even if there were several occupants. I could stay here long term. My 14 year relaxed. He enjoyed the pool, and commented on how intelligent the whole plaza was with a pharmacy, spa services, bar, store and restaurant all weaved together with hotel. We cannot say enough about the restaurant and we booked another night at end of trip because my son has to come back for more. Citrus is a gem. Families can relax and enjoy pool day, see many bird and plant species.

Everything was perfect, our host was very nice and available for every questions we had. The pool and the terrace have beautiful view to the sea and you can observe lot of birds from those places. Breakfast was delicious. The hotel is very well located, close to Uvita and Park Marino Ballena.
