La experiencia que tuvimos fue 10/10. El personal amistoso, siempre dispuesto a ayudar. Las instalaciones limpias, en perfecto estado. Tiene una ventaja enorme, está a 2 min del embarcadero del ferry. Recomendado 100%

Hotel Belmar
Rooms were exactly as advertised and very clean. The service went from great to average to great again. The restaurant staff seemed a bit inexperienced. The food was very good. The presentation and service was just above average. The staff attempted to address the issues and I would recommend giving ...

Eco Boutique Hotel Vista Las Islas Reserva Natural
This is our third time at the property. The view is unbeatable. Howler monkeys come by close. Comfortable apartments. Friendly staff. The only reason for 4 starts vs 5 is that the apartments are a bit tired and outdated.

Vida Mountain Resort & Spa - Adults Only
What an absolute gem of a place. I didn't want to leave! After a 2 week road trip, we wanted somewhere an 'easy' drive of SJO airport before our longhaul flight, and this place was perfect.

Villa Verde
The property grounds are incredible, offering an abundance of options for guests to explore and have access to. All staff encountered were kind and helpful. It was also a complete benefit that the Cloud Forest shuttle is literally right across the road! We would definitely stay here again!

Hotel Cerro Lodge
Wonderful staff. Convience of a restaurant. Excellent breakfast and pizza. Had a pool. Excellent birds around and we heard monkeys most of the night and finally got to see them at sunrise. Definitely off the beaten path.

Hotel Cayuga
Parking in the street is sketchy. I would highly recommend knowing how to speak Spanish if you are staying here. Not a lot of surrounding restaurants. Staff are very helpful, AC works well, pool is great, community hotel vibe with updated rooms. Power went out twice, but they had a company fixing ...

Fiesta Resort Central Pacific - All Inclusive
If you are visiting for your first time to Costa Rica this is not the place. When we checked in at midnight we walked to our room, that was farthest from front desk, and the keys did not work. Had to walk back to get keys that worked then the door latch on the inside caught so we had to Jimmy it ...
