The staff was so polite and eager to make our stay exceptional....they made our trip so easy with children - Mom and Dad was able to relax!!!
The food was so fresh and delicious that we looked forward to each meal. The kitchen staff would make everything from scratch with local foods and make anything 4 hungry children under 6 yrs. desired (what a treat for parents!).

I read some of the reviews on tripadvisor so I was expecting a very nice place, but even so, I was amazed by this beautiful hotel. That other reviewer could not have said it better - five stars is not enough! I have stayed in places twice as expensive that weren't as nice.

The best part is the tranquility. Although only five minutes away from downtown, it feels many miles away from any city or hustle bustle of any kind.
--Invertigo
Another bonus is the very knowledgeable staff. They know the area, they have Costa Rica dialed. Just ask, whether it's music, food, surf, sights, fishing. They will steer you clear of the tourist traps and point you to the real deal, and thats important if your out to get the true flavor of CR.

When we drove into the resort compound we were overtaken by the sheer beauty. I felt like I was in an adult version of Charlie's chocolate factory. The landscaping was perfect! And the scent of fragrant flowers filled the air.
The best part of our nights were sitting outside with everyone and just enjoying the warm air and star filled sky.

The hotel is a tropical rainforest haven!

So many fragrant flowers and brightly colored birds of paradise surrounded us it was almost too much to take in at once: this is all for us?!
--brad mendelson
It's like being in well-kept forest or one big wild garden. It can't get any more Costa Rica than this.

The grounds are absolutely gorgeous.

The afternoon overflight of scarlet macaws adds to the the real world experience.

Outstanding property, hillside, well manicured with special touches such as rare orchids and a variety of vegetation including edible fruits and the most colorful array of plants and animals. Eco-friendly doesn't sufficiently describe the closeness to nature you experience at Docelunas.

The first thing that brought a smile to our face was the fact that at Doce Lunas you can drink the water directly from the tap.
I cannot say enough about the size of the room or the view of the incredible grounds outside. While in our room it felt we were in this paradise all by ourselves, with that view. Not a day passed that I didn't see butterflys and all kinds of birds on the grounds.
There were fresh little flowers on our towels and steps leading to shower each day.
My wife is a clean freak...and she was even surprised at how clean everything was....ALWAYS!!!

Try Our Delicious Food
My husband is a big foodie and to please him is difficult. Yet each meal was terrific. It was like having our own private chef!
--enfromcalvert
All the meals served were exceptional.

I highly recommend their thatched roof open air bar and restaurant, it was small, quaint, and delicious.

The staff learned I loved Soursop so they made sure when ever I entered the restaurant/bar a fresh drink was prepared from me.

Everybody Likes Chris, the Owner
Whenever we needed anything the staff- and sometimes even the property's owner, was happy to oblige. He is always making sure you have a good time day or night. I think he used to be a high-end celebrity party planner.
--brad m
Chris the owner was there and provided us with taxi numbers as well as an extensive personalized list of activities, restaurants, adventures and sceneries to explore. Keep in mind that this was a impromptu handwritten note that Chris wrote for us while talking with us at the bar to see what our interests were. Everything that he put on the list was right up our alley and he even included next to each description, what to bring (i.e towels, sunscreen, camera, change of clothes).

Feel safe, be safe
The sense of security at this hotel is outstanding.

I've never been to a country of such modest means where everyone was soo happy wherever we ventured.

The first day we met other families by the beautiful pool. Everyone was friendly and relaxed. It felt like we were all one large group of friends having drinks and sharing information on local activities.
Walking around the town was amazing as everyone knew the owner and would shout Ola as we passed. By the end of our week there, many of the towns people recognized us as well and would call us by name.
We travel a lot and this was the fasted we have ever been welcomed into a community. Most hi-end resorts have staff who will remember one's name, but a town too! It was an Amazing experience.
--encfromcalvert
There seemed to be a nice core of travellers there each night...with ideas of things to do and places to see.

Enjoy a Family Vacation
My young kids enjoyed exploring the property's awesome flora and fauna (iguanas, butterflies, tropical birds, and some very friendly cats) and the older kids enjoyed wifi in the rooms and surfing at the nearby beach (2 miles away, an easy cab ride) and the canopy zip line tour arranged through the hotel.
--liftqueue family with teens from anapolis
Unlike some bar areas that throw the typical wild parties, Doce Lunas had a really fun yet relaxing party that wasn't crowded and above all it was classy.
