Top Playa Grande Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Palace Costa Rica - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was clean, but a bit outdated. The staff was very nice and hospitable. Getting the mini-bar restocked was a challenge at times, as was getting more than one towel per person. The food in the restaurants, for the most part, was good. Restaurants don't take reservations, so you do need to be in line early to get a seat. They only do two seatings, one at 5:00 pm and one at 7:00 pm. The Monkey Bar is definitely worth the walk. You'll be greeted by the monkeys along the walk, and the food and drinks are definitely authentic. (Take some grapes or bread from the buffet to have a really cool monkey experience.)"

Hotel Bosque del Mar, Playa Hermosa

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed here for two nights and we really enjoyed our stay. The property is very well maintained and the rooms are well appointed. The beach is very safe and the water is shallow for a long time. Great spot for kids to play in the sand and water. The best thing about this experience was the staff - they were very helpful and went above and beyond in almost every interaction. Great property super close to Liberia airport."

Jardín del Edén Boutique Hotel - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"The views inside the hotel were amazing, especially the walkway towards the beach. The rooms are very clean and super comfortable. Staff was very helpful and super friendly, especially when it came to the free breakfast and free dinner at the location. Would definitely like to visit again!!!"

Occidental Tamarindo - All Inclusive

8/10 Good

"The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the food was good with plenty of options to choose from. The entertainment was enjoyable but could use some improvement, as it felt a bit slow at times. The resort itself could definitely benefit from some updates. Our blackout curtains didn’t work, and the regular curtains were ripped, which took away from the overall experience. Despite those issues, the staff’s excellent service and kindness made our stay Enjoyable"

Five Bungalows, Swimming Pool and Amenities Amidst a Beachfront Forest.

10/10 Excellent

"What a great trip or group of 5 families (9 adults, 9 teens) had in this property! Each of the bungalows was identical with a large deck, a small kitchen area, two spacious bedrooms and two expansive bathrooms. The AC in the bedrooms was perfect. We opted to have Alicria cook our dinners and some breakfasts for us and they were outstanding. She hit the quantities of everything spot on, and accommodated our mix of meat eaters and vegetarians perfectly. Sher, the concierge took care of finding us the best activities and vendors. We had surf lessons, an estuary tour, daily yoga and a sunset tour. All of the providers she worked with were fantastic. The pool was cleaned daily and started a wonderful temperature even though it was so hot outside. Manfred, the owner was responsive when we requested some fans for the shelter above the communal kitchen. Our group could not have been happier with this rental--the perfect blend of private and public space, great food at great prices, and beachfront on a sandy, deserted, beautiful beach with warm swimmable water. What more could you want?"
