Came here to celebrate our 10th Anniversary and spent 6 days/5 nights at O&O Mandarina. By far the nicest resort we’ve ever visited and best vacation we’ve ever had. Here a a few highlights: 1. The panoramic ocean treehouse. We splurged and got one of the best rooms at the resort. 180 degree gorgeous views of the ocean, beach club, and jungle. Spent a TON of time hanging on our deck, sunbathing, and dipping in the plunge pool. Room was just perfect. Worth the extra money. See attached pics 2. Our host Tomas was incredible. He booked us a wonderful itinerary when we arrived, scheduling a magical dinner every night. The highlight was eating at Chukker at the Equestrian Stables during a lightning storm. We opted for the 4 course tasting menu with a wine pairing. 3. The spa. Had two treatments here and loved it. If you are going with a partner, definitely get the Rainforest Romance treatment which includes mud bath, foot scrub, aromatherapy, and 60 minute massage. Worth every penny. Spa also includes a beautiful steam room, sauna, cold plunge, relaxation room, and private pool immersed in the jungle. 4. Private Transportation from the airport. We opted for the private Mercedes van provided by the hotel. We were greeted at the airport, offered complimentary drinks the entire ride, and wonderful conversation with our driver. What a great way to start the vacation! 5. Service - the hotel staff was incredible. From the reception desk, to the drivers, to the servers at the restaurants, every person we met was kind, humble, and went out of their way to accommodate our needs and make us feel special. For a special occasion, this hotel can’t be beat. Yes it’s pricey, but you only live once and in our opinion it was worth every penny. We will never forget this trip. Thanks to the O&O Mandarina for making our anniversary so memorable!
