Lodges in Guanacaste

"Remarkably well run airport hotel with convenient airport shuttle and all modern conveniences. Pool area was a surprisingly nice and attractive amenity. "

"This is the sixth time we have stayed at Condovac. If you are looking for an economical place to stay in a stunning location this may be a property worth considering. The all-inclusive food is healthy Costa Rican-style fare (if you want a more North American buffet, you'd be better off at the Riu). The beach is amazing and we often snorkel at the south end. We always feel safe in Playa Hermosa and appreciate that it's only a half-hour drive from the airport in Liberia."

"Beaches were BEYOND pristine. Bars at multiple pools."

"Excellent place for families, Dinner options are excellent, first-come first-serve, buffet not so good except for breakfast"

"I am very through when it comes to trips. If you are a solo traveler or even looking for a family vacation . This is a good place to stay. Pros: - The hotel staff is very kind and helpful. Even the workers fixing up the hotel. Easy to show you where to go if needed. - It is safe ! The resort is gated and there is security that checks cars and vans coming in and out. I saw a comment about someone losing money from their room. The resorts’ gate security checks employees belongings before leaving work. - Food choices are pretty good for all inclusive. They have an omelette bar in the mornings where you can pick your choice of fixings for the cook to make. So yummy !! - I did not book excursions prior to my trip because I felt I would get better deals at the resort and I did !! There are different companies at the resorts that offer many excursions. I went on the volcano sight seeing / hike with a mud bath . It was an experience I will never forget. - Souvenirs: The resort has amazing shops to buy souvenirs, however I love how the local merchants were allowed on the resort on the beach. You are able to negotiate prices with them. Some can be more aggressive to sell than others. Con’s: There’s no true nightlife at the resorts, except a mini club on the outskirts and the shows the resorts have a 9pm nightly. - BUGS ! I made sure to lock my screen door at night because the creatures come out at night. I still ended with a beetle in my room. Overall a good vacay spot "
