The general consensus seems to be that the PRI is better between the two, but due to budgetary constraints, would you rather spend 2 nights at the PRI in either the butterfly room or treehouse room (with mostly views of the forest) or a nice suite at the Ventana?
I'd love to reserve a coastal view room at the PRI and be done with it, but $1000+/night is a little too much.
I actually prefer the tree houses to the ocean-fronts at PRI. They have a marvellous romantic feel to them and you can always ogle the views from the restaurant. PRI is by far the best option.
