I booked my trip and was completely happy with all aspects of my week at Casa Caletas. First thing I did was take my watch off and didn’t put it back on till the last day of my trip. The road in wasn’t bad at all (Really no lie!) I used a car service that the hotel booked for me. I thought from reviews I would be going in pot holes the size of a car but the road into Casa Caletas is no different than any other road I was on in the area. If you have never been on a dirt road then maybe it would be a surprise to you. Rent a 4X4 or take a car service your in Costa Rica not downtown LA.

My room was very nice and the AC worked great against the humidity. They have mango trees all throughout the resort and if you are quick enough you can get one before the different lizards, green iguanas and black iguanas get then first when it falls off the trees. I had Breakfast & Dinner each day at the hotel and was not disappointed at all. If you enjoy wine like I do just ask for it and they will hook you up with a great bottle of wine.

Lunch if I was at the resort I had pool side and again the food was never disappointing. The wait staff is very nice and helpful and understands English which is good since my Spanish is very limited. I went for a jog/walk each morning on the beach in both directions. (Right and left) Both ways are worth the time and much to see either way you go. I saw so much sea life and if you go at low tide you can see a lot in the tide pool and rocks. I used wet shoes and tennis shoes but did walk on the beach without shoes in the water. I guess the area is famous for this dark blue sand but it is starting to wash away I was told by another person staying at the hotel.
