My wife and I spent 2 nights at Los Altos de Eros in early February, 2008. We came in from Playa Junquillal after 2 nights near Arenal Volcano and 2 nights in Playa Junquillal.
The resort is several kilometers up a winding track from the main road outside Tamarindo, which added to the great secluded feel. Once inside, the property (both rooms and common areas) is so luxurious that one can forget about the wilderness just outside. We were greeted with fruit smoothies and a tour of the property, including a spa, yoga ashram, infinity pool and our queen poolside room. The room was simple but elegant, with a nice bathroom, outdoor tile shower and A/C. Perfectly lovely for us. The sounds from the kitchen outside our room were never really a problem.
As others have said, be prepared for some minor interaction with the local wildlife. We found this to be a cool aspect of the property. We had little (and harmless) tree frogs in the outdoor shower and numerous lizards came out at night to eat bugs. Also saw a large iguana poolside one morning. These events give Los Altos de Eros a "camping luxe" feel - a great juxtaposition of luxury accommodations and nature.
The staff and owners were all wonderful. I came to Los Altos de Eros nursing a stomach bug from drinking the water in Junquillal. While the staff catered to me with drinks and special food requests to soothe my sensitive stomach, owner Jackie had her driver pick up medication for me in Tamarindo. All this special attention was without additional charge. Jackie even refused my request to pay for the meds.
The hotel also put out a complimentary Super Bowl Sunday spread of different pizzas for the guests to enjoy during the game, even though it was not an evening when dinner is generally served by the hotel. Classy and impressive.
My only regrets were that I couldn't do the couples massage with my wife (canceled w/o charge) or truly enjoy the Saturday evening dinner and drinking because of how I was feeling. She had to do the massage alone. Oh well!
Guests should remember that breakfast and lunch dining, and the 2x weekly dinners, are served community style with all guests sitting at one large table. We found it enjoyable to dine and converse and laugh with the other guests and Jackie and Calvin, all of whom were sympathetic to (and a little mocking of!)my plight. However, be advised if you are not the type of person that enjoys meeting and dining with cool new people.
Thanks again to Los Altos de Eros for all the TLC.
