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 :)
