"Beautiful resort, the staff was very friendly "

"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. "

"Snorkeling wasn’t any good because the water was so murky! Otherwise enjoyed our stay!"

"We have just returned from a 5 night stay at this resort and we had an absolutely excellent time. The location is stunning, and our premium ocean view villa was a perfect choice for travelling with our three boys (two university aged and on reading break as well as our 13 year old). We chose the all inclusive option (after much debate based on some of the reviews) and are so happy we did, the food was amazing! Definitely a quieter resort with a very laid back atmosphere and we really enjoyed both the staff and all of the other guests we met. The resort has less of a commercial feel and provides more of an authentic Costa Rican experience. We booked a few offsite activities, one of which was surf lessons in Tamarindo, definitely a highlight of our trip! We also enjoyed the use of the kayak and paddle board, but note that they are only available for use between 9:30 and 11:30 and never had any trouble booking (just mentioning this for planning purposes). It may also be of note when booking a tour to make sure that one of the guides speaks English if you do not speak Spanish. We booked a snorkeling excursion and we’re lucky enough to have a local couple on the tour that were able to translate for us. It is also very easy and inexpensive to head into Coco Beach for a bit of night life if you wish or to shop and explore for the day. While the shuttles are a great option to get to the beach, my preference was to walk and sneak a stunning hike into the day. Perfect stay!!!"

"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 levels of enjoyment. A water volleyball game at one end of the pool went unnoticed by guests looking for quiet relaxation in another area. Over the course of our week-long stay, we got to experience the warmth & friendly service of the resort staff. We looked forward to being greeted each day by hostess, Karen, who greeted us by name & easily recalled our dining preferences. In addition, Josue and Gustavo, stand out for their exceptional service & sincere interest in our comfort & enjoyment of the property’s many amenities. As vegetarians/pescatarians & coffee lovers who do most of our own cooking, we were concerned that the resort would not meet our dining preferences. The opposite was true: the breakfast buffet at the resort restaurant, Pimento, had something for everyone. Local fruit, along with the biggest buffet we’ve ever seen, including egg & quesadilla bars, provided a substantial start to each day’s activities. Servers were friendly, attentive & refilled our cafe con leche until "

"Beautiful location. Great beach and quiet sleeping hours "
