Not only is the place beyond beautiful and peaceful (we felt like we had the place to ourselves because it's so big), but the staff was amazing (thank you for your warm welcome and hospitality, Yael :)) and the food was the most delicious we ate. Everything on their menu is worth trying -I'm still dreaming about the vegan shakshouka, the challah french toasts, the surprise salad & the avocado toast! Yael gave us a lot of recos on where to go, where to eat out, and it was always on point. The pool is amazing, the rooms are big and clean, and the wifi was the best we experienced during our stay in Costa Rica. We would definitely go back!

Tamarindo vacation
This place is very touristic and not cheap at all. Everything from food to souvenirs is expensive. Example: souvenir cup - $25, t-shirt -20-25, iced coffee (small) - $5. Supermarkets are quite expensive too. I don't recommend Las Olas and Las Palmeras. Super compro is better though. The beach/ocean is good for surfing, but not pleasant for swimming - the waves are too strong and high. If you are not a surfer, it is better to stay in other places in Guanacaste, where the ocean is good for swimming.

Potrero - amazing place off the beaten path!
Quiet community, not too many tourists, amazing beach and bay. Easy access to all other Guanacaste locations. We really enjoyed the food at Cristina's Bar - their chef was surprisingly good for such a small place. Everything he made tasted great! Best sunsets we saw were at Sugar Beach. A lot of expats live in Potrero, so it's easy to get around and communicate.

verdant paradise
We came from Guanacaste, which is brown and dusty and suffering from a drought. So Nuevo Arenal and the road leading to it and to Volcan Arenal was refreshingly verdant. In fact the views of the lake reminded us of some of the Italian lakes, Lago Maggiore, for example. There plenty of outstanding places to stay, as well as good restaurants.

Tamarindo is a lovely, if bustling tourist town on a lovely beach in Guanacaste province. We were there in the shoulder season, and it was still very busy. But there is a good choice of quality restaurants, shops and arts studios. If you visit, be sure to visit Guaitil, the indigenous community that produces hand-made pre-Colombian era pottery in family-run operations in this small community. There many attractions, beaches and communities to visit near Tamarindo.

Coco is best for the general vacationer, especially for longer stays. It has a long wide, sandy beach fine but not as pretty as others like Flamingo, Grande or even Hermosa. But these other places have generally fewer facilities than Coco ....supermarkets, restaurants, bus service, medical and dental services in case of emergency. Coco is not as busy as Tamarindo and far closer to the airport and other tourist attractions. It is easy to get around Coco... 20 minutes from the beach to the end of the main street but it is a hot 20 minutes at 30+C. Sunscreen is a must and so is insect repellent for the whole coastal area. There are many restaurants on the main street or on the beach but our favorites for quality and ambience were La Dolce Vita and Soda Mediterranea in the Las Palmas area a 20 minutes walk from town. Taxis are easily available and one way fares are around 5 US$. Many hire golf carts also. Coco is an excellent place for a first time visit to the Guanacaste coast of Costa Rica. Once you know what you really like your second trip may take you elsewhere or bring you back. Happy travels!

If you are going to Costa Rica you have to visit Tamarindo!
If you are going to Costa Rica you have to visit Tamarindo! Gorgeous beach but also has the Estuary right there and allows for boat tours to see lots of wildlife up close such as Crocs, monkeys etc...There are 20-30 restaurants and bars within 5-10 minute walk from any hotel. Lots of shopping opportunities and is a great jumping off spot if you want to take rental car up or down the Guanacaste region to see other Beaches....third visit in 4 years and already planning for next March.....95+ every day if you don't mind heat and every place is air conditioned....most restaurants are open air., but temp drops at night....oh the memories......almost ran over a Sloth one day and came to a stop for a picture and oh look there's 10-12 Monkeys in the trees above me!

Guanacaste has amazing beaches and Tamarindo is not the exception, there a lot of plazas with restaurants, nice hotels and everything you might need to spend some really nice vacations. To me Conchal beach is one of the best in Costa Rica and it is 30 minutes away by car from Tamarindo so I would highly recommend to go there.

W Costa Rica Resort – Playa Conchal
Playa Conchal
From Rp 10,553,005 per nightThe premises are fantastic, the surrounding breathtaking nature is unbelievable, as all of the nature in Costa Rica is! Of course, Playa Conchal where the hotel is, is the best beach in all of Guanacaste (northern province of Costa Rica) with its white sands and turquoise blue water, you can only be grateful that you are there and cannot ask for more! The room was awesome in every way. Magnificent ocean view, dual shower heads, a super comfortable king size bed, big balcony, big sized room! Friendly staff!

We were blown away by this property! Booked it last minute because we needed somewhere to stay before our flight out of Liberia Guanacaste Airport (LIR) and it was the perfect ending to our stay. The pool was large with lots of chairs and is surrounded by lush trees while iguanas and peacocks walk around the premises. The restaurant on property is pleasant and wholesome. AC works great and there is an ice machine in the hotel. The free breakfast is delightful and I appreciated the COVID safe precautions.

Loved the deer, agouti and monkeys freely roaming the property. Like an oasis once leaving the busy main road. We stayed two nights heading home via Guanacaste Airport. We were glad that we stayed two nights as location was perfect being next door to a river that provided rafting, which was excellent and on the other side of the hotel was the Puma Sanctuary, also worth a visit. Staff here are all very attentive and helpful. Altogether a great stay

I have always struggled to get a quiet and clean room in Liberia (Guanacaste) without paying a lot. This place met all my expectations. The room was extremely clean and the bed was very comfortable. The neighborhood was really nice and I felt really safe. Its a basic hotel but has all you need for an overnight (or perhaps a couple of nights) stay in Liberia. I strongly recommend this little hotel.

Hotel Cabanas La Teca

From Rp 1,599,134 per nightThe cabanas were clean and beautiful. The food was delicious and the hospitality was excellent. Katia and Jon who run the hotel went above and beyond for us. They made our unscheduled stay in Guanacaste a life memory and for that I am grateful. Beautiful place and beautiful staff, this family run business made us feel like family. Travel is joy and they made it even more joyful. Pura Vida!

Excellent hotel in a remote and private location in the north of Guanacaste. The room was much bigger than expected, and bed were very comfortable. The restaurant of the hotel is also very good! We enjoyed our breakfasts as well as some dinners there! You can easily access many other beaches by car in less than 20 min.

Hotel El Valero was in quiet, sleepy Playa Hermosa in Guanacaste. It's Right on the ocean so the dining room spills into the Pacific. The people were kind and warm (as the Costa Rican people are), the hotel has a 'local' Costa Rican ambiance with rich wood appointments and tile. I would go back again!
