Great time in quiet Playa Hermosa!

This is a great property and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff is super helpful with special call out to Diego who helped us find surfing lessons in Tamarindo on our last day at the last minute! We loved our stay here. I highly recommend it. I would say just a smidge pricey for not including breakfast...but all in all, no complaints!

The pictures of this hotel do not do it justice. The cove is beautiful, the design of the rooms is so lux, and views are remarkable. The food and drinks were a bit too pricey, but there is a grocery store nearby and there are some cheaper dining options down the beach. I would come back to this hotel every year if I could. So unique!

This was a great place to stay on a very nice beach. The room was very nice. Pool was ok but also kinda what we expected, still refreshing at 85 degrees. Same temp as the ocean. The sand is scorching hot so wear sandals. We walked down the beach to other restaurants for dinners because the food was better / different. Pitch black walk on the beach was interesting and the “path” was also oddly populated with people in the dark.

We enjoyed our one week stay at Bosque Del Mar. The staff was very friendly and helpful especially Diego at the front desk and Alexis and Sofi at the restaurant. We did not have a problem eating at the restaurant each day as there was a variety of selections for our family (including a very picky child) and everything was fresh and delicious. We appreciate Alexis packing us breakfast one day when we had an early pick up for our excursion. Our room was spacious and clean. The beds were comfortable. The bathroom was spacious especially the shower area. The access to the beach was a big plus as well. The pool was small but beautiful. We just hope that they change or add paddings to their lounge chairs to make them more comfortable. We liked that the hotel gave us a relaxing stay and offered easy services to explore the area. Overall we highly recommend this hotel as it added to many good memories to our first trip to Costa Rica.

The staff was beyond helpful!! Extremely kind and accommodating. Everyone was exceptional but two people stood out: Shirley and Diego! I will definitely be back to this hidden gem of paradise!! We went with our whole family (12 people and 5 rooms) this resort gives you the best of both worlds.. walk in pool and amazing beach. The restaurant was amazing especially breakfast and as expected the coffee was delicious. I could go on and on. Great memories made and I can’t wait to go back!!

We've stayed here several times because it's a decent beach near the airport. The grounds are beautiful. The hot tub is not hot. The yoga class was nice. The music in the restaurant is horrible. I'd rather listen to the ocean waves than elevator music. Also they need new curtains. Sheer curtains where you can see out, they have these heavy blinds that cover the entire wall.

Great place to stay

Beautiful hotel with environment that really makes it seem like a tropical rainforest, especially in the dry Guanacaste region. Friendly staff, delicious food that is reasonably priced for the area and hotel. Monitored parking across the street. Fantastic quiet and low key beach. And you have to love the sound of howler monkeys in the morning. Would definitely recommend to friends.
