We booked our holiday as a special treat for our tenth anniversary and had never travelled to Costa Rica before, so we were not sure what to expect or the standard of the hotel as it was rated a mere two and a half stars on Expedia. We thought that we would take a chance and book 5 nights at Casa Chameleon Las Catalinas as the description and images looked amazing, however we left on our travels expecting it not to live up to expectations as per many hotels that we have booked and stayed at, you...

The hotel w as better than we expected, well worth the prize tag. It us away from the main town and the access to the beach is great... Easterbrook you see the sunset from the private beach. You will be blown away. The road to get there is a dirt road in the last kilometre but do not let this deter you. A piece of advice, try the shrimp hole nearby for lunch or dinner.

A beautiful stay in Guayacan. Staff very helpful. Grace was our favourite, she spent time teaching our children Spanish and made us feel very welcome every time. We had an issue with the water but this wouldn't put us off staying here again. A unique experience that we really loved. Food was delicious, go half board if you can. The rooms need an extra air con unit on the bunkbeds side, but if you have the unit on all day and shut the curtains it's fine. Don't be put off by the drive up to the...

Staff were super friendly and helpful. We arrived early for check in but they were very accommodating and allowed us to check which was super helpful.
Michelle, Stephanie & Deijan were the front desk staff and they were all great. All the staff were. The hotel has access directly onto the beach, secure parking and a lovely little pool. Beds were comfortable and rooms had everything you might need.

Just had the most amazing stay at this beautiful villa in Tamarindo! Everything from the modern design and cozy atmosphere, surrounded by nature, made it the perfect peaceful getaway. The pool was a dream come true! The whole vibe was incredibly relaxing, and although it's close to town, it felt like a true escape. I can't recommend this place enough!

A beautiful, quiet, romantic hotel on a rugged but stunning tidal beach. Located 5mins cab ride or 20minutes walk from the main town Tamarindo, a busy young but vibrant town during the evening.
The service we received from all the staff at Cala Luna was outstanding, Luz it was a pleasure to meet you.

The view matches the name of the hotel. Beat ifully maintained by Sandra and Florian. Access to the small parking area is up a steep hill. There is a bit more parking on the road. Great breakfast, we preferred the 'Organic'choice - recommended. Small pool perfect for morning swims. We stayed for three nights, exploring the area by car, and had our lunches and dinners en route. This strategy worked well for us as we were not interested in any nightlife.

Our stay at Nekajui, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, was truly exceptional. The resort is spectacular, with breathtaking views, beautifully designed facilities and an incredible sense of privacy and tranquillity.
The facilities are outstanding. The **gym is amazing**, while the **spa and hydrotherapy pools are truly sensational** — perfect for relaxing and recharging.
What really sets Nekajui apart, however, is its people. The staff were passionate, professional, warm and exceptionally courteous....
