2/10 Poor

No so nice, wish they invested a little bit more
The bed is hard as a rock and for someone with a bad back it’s not the best place to sleep. They gave me two towels. One was hard as a rock like it had been sitting there for years. The second one was very rough and very inexpensive and smelled terrible before I used it to shower.. There are no nightstands to put your stuff. There is a shelf in the corner of the room that is very small and it’s across the other side of the room from the bed.. There is nowhere to put your luggage so I had to use the two chairs that went with the very small table that was in the room so if you want to eat, and you have two bags that you wanna leave open to get things in and out of you’ve got nowhere to sit. The room is very bare. There’s not much in the room other than bed, drapes shower very small sink. The view is beautiful. I do have to say that, but if they just invested a little bit more in the amenities of the hotel rooms, this place would be a hit and I would stay here most likely every trip I go to Costa Rica and I travel to Costa Rica about every other month. The hallway to get to your room is very dark at night. There our lights, but you have to get to the end of the hallway before the lights turned on because they are set up for motion detection. The staff was very polite, except for the receptionist when I was checking out the security guard was awesome and very helpful and the gentleman who checked me in was very nice and helpful as well

6/10 Good

The location is safe and close enough to other beach towns. The rooms are pretty outdated but it’s perfect if you plan on being out most of the time. Definitely a 3 star hotel. The views are amazing, staff was friendly. It was unfortunate that their laundromat “did not work”, Expedia should really remove laundry from the description. Definitely was not 24/7 concierge service, when we would get back at 11pm all the lights were off in the lobby / eating area and NO ONE was at the front desk. There was 24/7 security - nice man who let you through. Do not take “monkey trail” on your way there, if you do you’ll have to cross a small river - stick to the main roads.

10/10 Exceptional

We loved our stay, the staff was extremely helpful and the view from our room was extraordinary. I strongly suggest getting a swim up room that's what we did, which made accessing things convenient. Customer service was top notch couldn't ask for a nicer staff. The cleaning crew was fantastic are room was left spotless every day. We really enjoyed the food. If you are not in good shape it's a long hike down to the tiny beach would suggest it for families with small children or elderly people to walk. The shower wasn't always hot but the good far out ways the bad for this place. The price was fantastic and we enjoyed the spectacular view

ROACH INFESTED! DO NOT STAY HERE! Norwin the guy who checked us in proceeded to pick up the biggest roach I’ve ever seen in my life with his bare hand from our bathroom and threw it into the hall way where another dead roach laid. Toilets had a ring around them like they hadnt been used in months and dust all over the towels and bathroom showing no one had been in this room for a while. Moved us from the 3rd floor room to a 4th floor room and saw another roach! Norwin said the roaches are normal there in Costa Rica, that they would be in every room! Hotel had no one at the pool, bar, casino or restaurant and only two cars in the parking lot. It was like a ghost town. They also didn’t check us in with ID or credit card and everyone left at 9 all lights off in restaurant, bar, main, lobby so when we decided we weren’t comfortable staying there after an hour and a half of being there just scared we were going to see more roaches we left and couldn’t get ahold of anyone to let them know. We had to leave to another hotel after a long day of traveling to get away from this dirty place! The new hotel had no roaches or any other bugs the entire time we were there! So no, roaches are not normal in hotels in Costa Rica! Now in the process of trying to get our money back as the general manager told Expedia no refunds! I understand if it was a customer just canceling to cancel and not getting a refund but not on account of a roach infested hotel/dirty rooms! Again DO NOT STAY HERE!!!

We stumbled across this gem after being canceled the night before our flight at another resort (CONDOVAC LA COSTA). we were panicked with very little time in such short notice. Dunama was amazing. Easy to book and what a pleasant surprise when we arrived. Extremely convenient location with excellent views around the whole resort. Plenty of lounging areas. The beach was down below a couple flight of stairs. With great snorkeling and black sand beach. I recommend water shoes if you want to explore the area around. It is also around the best beach we thought with a fantastic sunset. 3 minutes away, Flamingo beach. You can also rent cabanas and chairs on thus beach for $30. We had the swin up room and I loved it! This resort exceeded our expectations. We are well traveled and this resort helped our experience and vacation to Costa Rica be a fantastic trip. Great shops, pharmacy, medical care and restaurants in the area. Brit cafe, Angelina's, rest monkey jungle, coco loco and hazels near the marina were a few of our favorites. The new owners have improved this place a ton and i only see it getting better. The food was just ok. Driving is a bit chaotic with narrow roads and steep hills. If you dont have a car you can rent a golf cart near by. For $59 a day. I encourage to do this in advance as the reservations fill up. Happy vacay planning :)
