4 outdoor pools, free cabanas, sun loungers

"We stayed for 5 nights. The first night - Tuesday February 25th- we left our swim clothes out on the chairs of our porch to dry. I woke up early and was getting some work done on my computer, I watched from my window as a landscaping male employee walked pass our porch where our swim clothes were drying, picked up my husbands swim trunks and walked off with it. I went out shortly after to get the rest of our stuff and he said good morning to me like he didn’t just steal from us. I didn’t address...

"Excellent views, food options are lacking as only one basic buffet for all meals and very limited choices. It could be so much more with the fantastic views. Our unit was a good size but was located far away from main pool and restaurant which is not what I expected, it was infested with ants and cockroaches. We had ants in our king bed!!! Service was great when we told them and came out right away to spray unit but never should have happened in first place. "

"Our stay at the JW Marriott Guanacaste Resort was nothing short of perfect! The property was beautiful & well maintained, the staff was friendly, the food was delicious, & the excursions were well organized & fun. Our room was cleaned & restocked to perfection each day & we were so happy we’d thought to reserve a room with an ocean-facing balcony. Each night, the sunset was an event not to be missed! In addition, the serpentine, infinity pool was large enough to provide guests with varying...

Breakfast, lunch, dinner served; international cuisine, pool views

"Nice hôtel- very comfortable but not as luxury as one would expect from a 4 star hotel. For example- no bathrobes, no amenities unless requested, super dark rooms that were outdated, constant miscommunication, and very polite staff but not the high customer service one would expect. The breakfast was good- mix of buffet and made to order. The beds were comfy although there were some dips in the bed. The staff were nice but not quite what I would consider hospitality although it could also be the...

"Unbelievable property!!! A complete Oasis. Staff was incredible-Kaylin, Scarlet, Jeremy and Santi were attentive, kind and made me feel at home. My “tienda” was spotless and comfortable. I highly recommend this property for its tranquility and amazing pool area. You won’t be disappointed."

"Our group of 18 had an excellent stay the week that encompassed New Year's. The property is beautiful and very well maintained. Lani and Matt are responsive and helpful, but not at all intrusive. Would highly recommend for a large group that is looking to have the whole place, like we did. We did the breakfast and dinner package every day, which worked out well from a value perspective (and was tasty and great for socializing), but in retrospect I would have had us eat dinner in town a night...

"We had a fantastic stay at this property. The condo was large and had more than enough space for our family of five. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed to make meals and then could go out and enjoy the access to the pool, kayaks, and mountain biking through the Beach Club. Julie was an amazing host and probably had the best communication of any owner we’ve ever rented from. The welcome information was really useful, and she was quick to answer any questions we had. Would...

"We had to leave a day early. There was construction going on next to us which we were not told about ahead of time. They are building more bungalows. Between the open netting at the ceiling and windows without curtains, it was noisy and we had no privacy. In addition we waited 15 minutes and didn’t get hot water for the shower the last two mornings we were there. The beach was not walking distance as advertised. You would have to walk a dusty and busy road to get there. I was honest with...

Deluxe Villa, Multiple Beds, Private Pool, Ocean View (16 Calle Virginia | 4 BR | 4.5 BA) | Living room

"The view from my room was beautiful! The room was perfect for a couple. I would give it a five stars rating if the bathroom didn’t smell like mold. I told the front desk; they said they would look into it; but nothing was done. In addition, the TV didn’t work on the third day that we were there. They could not fix it 😕 The construction noise started from 07am to 10 pm. There was only one road to get in and out of town. It was very very bumpy! Food was expensive at Las Catalinas and...

"We had the 2 room poolside apartment, it was very nice and clean. The included breakfast in the morning was amazing, probably the best included breakfast of anywhere I have ever stayed. The hotel is right outside from the supermarket which was awesome and super close to the center of Tamarindo. 10/10, we will be back!"

The Westin Reserva Conchal, an All-Inclusive Golf Resort & Spa

5/5 Excellent

"I loved this resort! 1. The food was great for resort food 2. The staff was very accommodating and friendly. 3. We always felt safe even at night 4. The resort was full of monkeys, iguanas, macaws, birds 5. Lots of entertainment for kids The only downside was the beach. Don’t go here For the beach. It’s pretty and the view is great but the locals bug you to get massages as soon as you step foot on the sand and the current is strong I would go back and recommend this place every time. "

"We stayed at this resort for my sisters birthday and it was amazing. It is a small resort and you will get to know the staff and other vacationgoers really quickly. Danny Boy (staff) helped me to get a birthday cake to surprise my sister and helped us get a taxi to CoCo Beach where I had the drivers name before he even came to pick us up (also had a way to communicate with the driver via WhatsApp and he came and found us at our meeting point so we weren't searching for a random car). This is a small resort, don't go here expecting to party the night away, it's not the place for that. It IS a place for relaxing, swimming in the pools, having a couple drinks, and enjoying the buffets. Rooms were wonderful and everything was in good order. Would definitely stay again. "
