There are not enough stars to give this property! Beautiful villas, breathtaking view, animals just out our door! We stayed 7 nights in Suite 1, toucans, macaws, kookaburras, iguanas, hummingbirds and a Pizote all viewed from our pool deck. Wonderful indoor shower that could be open to outside, also had an outside shower, private pool with lounge chairs. Very clean, grounds well maintained. Would stay here again happily, honestly it was the best part of our trip!

The host was more than accommodating throughout the booking, arrival and even allowing us late checkout time, which we needed because of a tour at the nearby Carara National Park. The room was beautiful with an amazing ocean view, clean and convenient with a kitchenette. We saw macaws fly by! Loved everything about Akua!

We stayed for one night in chalet no.1 and loved it. The property is well appointed and pretty isolated with a lovely outlook over the Gulf of Nicoya. Being close to the River Tárcoles and Carara NP, there is plenty of wildlife and we saw scarlet macaws flying overhead in the evening. Laura met us at the entrance and showed us round our chalet which was clean and quite luxurious with two large beds, kitchenette, large bathroom with pleasant, natural views yet private and secluded, and a patio fully across the front and side with a clean, cooling plunge pool, loungers, tables and chairs. Other reviews have criticised lack of cleanliness, hot water and reliable wi-fi but we had no problem with any of these. Because there are only a handful of chalets here, there is no bar, café or restaurant nearby so we self-catered, though there's a variety of options in Tárcoles (a short drive away) most of which offer online ordering and delivery. The location is fairly quiet, but traffic on the main coast road can be heard during the day at varying levels of intensity. Akua Suites was the perfect final night for our Costa Rican tour. We got up early for a 2-hour birdwatching tour in Carara Park but we still had time afterwards to get a reasonably priced breakfast at the Crocodile Bridge and return to pack up before leaving the property shortly after 11am.

Great view, nice apartment

This is a great place to be on your own. Amazing views from the balcony with a private pool. You need a rental car, and the town nearby is quite small, but it's a lovely place to spend some time.

Looks just like the photos. Place is beautiful and staff is super helpful and accommodating. They even let us check in early! My only gripe is the visit from salamanders at night, but that’s what happens when you’re in the jungle. I would stay here again.

This was a beautiful property. The personal pool was an absolute dream! There are plenty of places nearby to eat, but you almost certainly have to drive. I would recommend having your own transportation if you stay here - 4x4 since the hill is STEEP. Little to no bugs in the room, which is quite rare in Costa Rica. Minor issues we had: our room did not have hot water in the shower. You can hear the traffic from the main road (but this is likely unavoidable wherever you stay), and the walls were very very thin. You could hear anything above a low whisper in the room next over. Also, I don’t believe there was a rule against smoking on the porch, so we had to deal with heavy cigarette smells most times we wanted to relax outside. Overall, it was a good experience. I’m not sure I would stay here again if I came back, but I like to try new locations. The hosts were great. Would likely recommend to a friend!
