Beautiful property and views. Condo is new, comfortable and comes with w/d. Easy access to many beautiful beaches or watching the sunset by the pool. Friendly and helpful people on site for advise and recommendations. One week is really not long enough here to capture the entire scope of the opportunities to relax, play golf and take in all the adventures and things to see. But no matter how much time you have, it is a wonderful and perfect spot for vacationing!

Came for the Golf
We travelled to Central America from Canada, to escape the winter and the major plan was to bring along our golf clubs and to book places with golf privileges included; San Buenas being the 3rd of such bookings. We rented a 2 wheel, drive car in Jaco ( mistake) and set off for San Buenas. We travelled off the main highway, following the well advertised signs for San Buenas, drove through a small dirt road village, met up with Lou, The Property Manager ( fantastic, by the way) and proceeded up and up and up, a long, completely dirt road, into the isolated forested hills and mountains of the property.
Upon arriving at the 2 building Condos and nothing more, we were a little worried , what we had booked. The advertised SanBuenas Golf Resort and Spa is a little misleading; we arrived in plenty of time on Super Bowl Sunday, and thought if we didn’t watch the game at the condo, we watch it at the Club House bar and restaurant. Wrong; No Bar and Restaurant and no tv signal up here.
Now the positives; the 2 bedroom Condo, we stayed in was totally top class; very large and modern. It had 2 bedrooms, wrap around covered balcony, fully equipped kitchen, very nice, comfortable living room, 2 bathrooms, fully air conditioned and plenty of kitchen supplies.
On the grounds between the two condos, is a well maintained, large swimming pool, that on most occasions, you have to yourselves.
Back to the golf; they offer with your rental, access with Free Golf, to a 9 hole, surprising, well maintained full par 37 course. No water holes on the course and unfortunately the bunkers are not maintained and are all treated as GUR, as their is no sand; rock hard and liners all exposed. However the fairways and greens are beautifully maintained and cared for a very pleasant surprise. We golfed nearly every day, mostly early morning, break after 9, then 9 more late afternoon.
The course is walkable; which we did most rounds, as the only other complaint, is that they charge by the seat for their golf carts, not by the cart. Sort of silly and a little disappointing.
DEFINITELY, need a car, way up here and strongly advise a 4 wheel drive, to not only get up and down the access road, but to also get in some area sightseeing and to the best High- Up-In the Hills, excellent restaurants.
All in all, would give a 5 to the accommodations, swimming pool and to Lou the Property Manager; a 3.5 to the golf course and 3.5 to location, as although beautiful property,

Gorgeous condos
My husband and I stayed here for a week, because we wanted to do some golfing on our month long vacation. We wished we would have stayed longer not only can you play golf on a beautiful course but there are many beaches, tours, restaurants and other attractions to explore. Larry was so helpful and so personable. Happy hour at their top rated pool to watch the sunset was absolutely stunning. I highly recommend staying here, my only regret was that we didn't stay longer. Thank you Larry and hope to see you on our next trip.
