My wife and I loved Clarita’s. The property is prestine and newly remodeled. The downstairs cafe/bar and sushi restaurant were excellent. The ocean views and sunsets were incredible either on the beach or the rooftop deck. It was truly a magical experience. Additionally, the rooms and bathrooms were roomy and super clean and the toilets! Japan style they were honestly a game changer. I don’t want to forget how superb the service was at in all areas of the property.We Loved our stay, highly recommended to anyone visiting Jaco.

The resort has a restaurant on the premises which I found to be very convenient and the room was cleaned. However, for a resort there were no entertainments. Furthermore, there was no microwave available for the guests if you want to warm up something and no iron in the room.

Best property we came across on Jaco beach! Each room has an amazing view with a balcony. The building is brand new and the infinity pool is very nice. My only complaint is the calamari was a bit tough but the fries, the smoothies and juevos rancheros were great. Staff is all very accommodating, would love to return!! PS I was a little hesitant after reading some reviews that people missed the old design… rest assured this renovation is leagues beyond anything nearby. Im certain rooms will be in the $400-$600 range next time we are here

The resort is clean, safe and beautiful. There are two pools overlooking the beach. The restaurant has great drinks, a wide menu and multilingual servers - we should've eaten here all meals rather than go into town. We stayed in a King Suite that sleeps 5 - it doesn't sleep 5, it sleeps 2 + 1 hard couch. They resolved the problem respectfully with an additional room for my two teenage boys - error's happen, but they made it right. The service was excellent. It's a guarded gate and there is security on site 24/7. My only complaint (that is not their fault) is that the beach was not safe to swim in out front. I don't know if it's always like that on the North Jaco beach so it doesn't effect my 5 star rating - but a short drive (or walk) south we were able to find calmer and safer waters...about 3 miles down the beach. Definitely one of the nicest resorts in Jaco from what we saw!

Dit hotel is pas een paar maanden open. Alle kamers hebben uitzicht op zee. Uitstekend ontbijt (niet inbegrepen in ons geval) en je kunt er ook prima eten. Nog wel een paar kinderziektes: de eerste avond hadden we geen warm water (werd wel snel opgelost). Op dag 3 deed de lift het niet meer door hevige regenval. Lastig als je kamer op de 6e etage is en je knieproblemen hebt. We kregen gelukkig wel een andere kamer is de andere toren, maar toiletartikelen en schone kleding hadden we op dat moment niet. De volgende dag was de lift nog niet gerepareerd, maar met hulp van twee medewerkers werden onze spullen naar de nieuwe kamer verhuisd. We sliepen hier vier nachten, maar op twee van de vier dagen was de kamer niet schoongemaakt en moesten we hierom vragen. Er werd wel heel grondig schoongemaakt. Van 16 tot 19 uur was er happy hour voor bepaalde cocktails, alleen op dag 3 bleek dat zonder aankondiging nog maar tot 18 uur te zijn. De rekening werd wel aangepast, heel netjes. We kregen ook compensatie vanwege de overige ongemakken, dit hebben wij zeer gewaardeerd. Als de kinderziektes verdwenen zijn, een prima plek.
