My stay was unreal. The service was so friendly, warm and accommodating. The room was spacious and stunning. We were a quick walk from the beach and Casa Lamia’s restaurant was fabulous - the dishes and drinks were amazing! breakfast was always new each day and so delicious. Can’t wait for an excuse to go back! The stay was amazing from start to finish.

Owner was friendly through text , workers were great !!! Until my little one broke a drinking vase & the lady tried to get over on my husband & charge him $80 for it. Meanwhile the cook in Spanish was laughing & saying it’s no more then $20 10,000 colonies! That rubbed us the wrong way , we tipped every worker the whole stay! The room was great , they should kill some of the animals nest around the property & also huge iguanas we heard all day/night on top of the ceiling! There needs to be some maintainace done for sure! But otherwise very nice unique stay!

The perfect weekend getaway for our last min escape from the city life. Food and drinks were fantastic, staff extremely attentive and accommodating. Can’t wait to visit again!

6/10

We stayed at this hotel for 1 week in the lower priced room. The breakfast was included and was delicious every day. The few other times we ate there were not very good and very much overpriced so we ended up eating in other restaurants for dinner and lunch. The view is probably one of the best for sun sets and bird watch (parrots, toucans, etc.) Location is between Manuel Antonio and Quepos but on top of a high hill so I would recommend to get either a car or scooter to avoid walking up and down in the burning sun (physically hard) and/or paying for a taxi every time. Also not walking distance from anything, you need to take the bus, taxi or your vehicle if you have. Not much entertainment there, rarely any music or people so not a party place at all. Our room was nice and clean, but located right beside the dining area of the restaurant which is unusual (the 2 lower costing rooms are there, otherwise the huts are further away

The view from the front of Casa Lamia is hard to beat. The first night we sat and watched the sun go down with a sailing yacht in the foreground. Breakfast was included every morning and was homemade and delicious

This property provided breathtaking views of the expansive sea, offering a sense of tranquility and connection to nature. The soothing sound of waves crashing against the shore was a constant companion, creating a relaxing atmosphere throughout our stay. The proximity to the ocean allowed for easy access to beach activities like swimming, snorkeling, and beachcombing. Waking up to the sight and sound of the ocean waves just steps away was a highlight of our experience. Overall, the property's prime location by the ocean made for an unforgettable and rejuvenating getaway.

Anthony and Brandon were wonderful and very hospitable. The view from the restaurant was spectacular. The food was magnificent. We had the seafood platter. The sounds of the jungle birds from the back deck were magical. We saw wild horses and iguanas everyday. I would recommend this location to anyone who wants a beautiful view, who loves nature and who is okay to be a two minute drive from the main road.

Beautiful restaurant and hotel. It has a fun relaxed feel. As soon as you enter you feel transported. The rooms are beautifully decorated, they are specious and have all amenities. We truly enjoyed our stay. We ended up having dinner every night at Casa Lamia since it was the best restaurant we tried in Costa Rica. The service was friendly and impeccable. The staff made you feel at home. We were waken up everyday to a delicious breakfast made by Yeimy. Our fondest memories of Costa Rica were at Casa Lamia, can’t wait to go back.

I wish I could have given this a higher rating, but unfortunately, many of the past reviews ring true. We stayed in a luxury tent, but the experience didn’t match the description. The door was unsealed and insecure, so we had to seal it ourselves to keep bugs out. We arrived to half a roll of toilet paper and had to wait two hours the next day for more. The shower fluctuated between scalding hot and freezing cold — staff attempted to fix it, but the issue persisted. Several things were in disrepair, including broken knobs and damaged framing around the toilet entrance. The jacuzzi was also dirty when we arrived and wasn’t cleaned until we requested it the next day. While staff were friendly and responsive, more proactive check-ins would have improved the experience. On the bright side, the location is magical, the breakfast was fantastic, and the bed and temperature in the tent were very comfortable. This place has so much potential, but it needs more attention to maintenance and guest experience, as echoed in other reviews.

This was our twelfth anniversary and we wanted to do something really special and Casa Lamia’s was it! The staff first welcomed us with a fully decorated room, a bottle of champagne and a welcoming sign wishing us a happy anniversary. Make sure you book in advance! We were lucky to not only experience their beautifully spacious Bungalows but we also booked a few days in their exclusive Luxury Tent rooms fit with your own private jacuzzi overlooking the rainforest. Each morning we were able to eat the included breakfast by the Jacuzzi. The Air Conditioning (which is always important to me) kept the room nice and cold. The water pressure was excellent as well! The restaurant was amazing, the best we had throughout our entire stay in Costa Rica and as foodies, we really appreciate the fresh ingredients and five star presentation! The sunsets overlooking the ocean From the elevated view are a dream and the specialized drinks just make for the perfect end to every day. We were able to take a brisk walk to what was basically private beach and uber 5 minutes into the city of Quepos or to the big beaches in Manuel Antonio where you can do horseback riding, parasailing or just relax on a beach chair and order a light lunch. We are already planning on coming back for our thirteenth anniversary!

The property has a beautiful view and within a very short walk you reach a wonderful and almost virgin beach. Our room was spacious and had a big terrace with a view to the beautiful jungle. Guest attentiont and hospitality was poor. One night we wanted to stay in the lobby and chill with friends but the night guard turned the lights off at 10 pm. It´s a very nice and new place but don´t expect a hotel, its a bed and breakfast.

I wish I could give this hotel zero stars. From the moment we arrived, it was a nightmare. We found blood stains on our bath towel, which is absolutely unacceptable and disgusting. As if that wasn’t bad enough, in the middle of the night, someone tried to break into our room. It was terrifying and left us feeling completely unsafe. To make matters worse, the balcony reeked of sewage, making it impossible to enjoy any fresh air. When we raised these serious concerns with the staff, their only solution was to offer us a dinner—as if that could make up for the horrific experience we endured. I cannot stress this enough: avoid this place at all costs! It’s unsafe, unsanitary, and completely unprofessional.

We enjoyed our stay overall but they describe it as beach front and that is not entirely true. The view of the sunset is spectacular but it is a long walk down a rough road to a small beach. We were not happy with the smell of mold in the unit. We tried to air it out but that just allowed more humidity in. The staff were great, the food and drinks were great and they did a small amount of laundry for us at no charge.
