Aguas Claras Vacations from ￥130,808

Another great stay it In The Shade, even at the peak of rainy season :) I was traveling solo and this place is nice and quiet but not far from the main road where all the shops and restaurants are. They also have great food and coffee and smoothies in the morning. Check-in is easy and the staff is so very kind and accommodating. My favorite place to stay in Tamarindo and I have tried many places. Will be back again!

This property offers gorgeous views from all sides of the resort. They are known for having the best location to view sunsets in the area. The staff are top notch, service is impeccable. We especially enjoyed the wine tasting experience, and poolside service was great. We visited during the rainy season but were lucky with the weather, all mornings were clear and sunny except one. This resort is a great place to rejuvenate. It is a bit secluded so if you wanted to visit the local town you need a taxi. They offer a host of excursions, including hiking, adventure tours, and fishing. The location is walkable to the local beach, in a small town under development. Just a beautiful location. Highly recommend!

My recent stay at the Hotel Riu Palace Costa Rica, nestled right on the beautiful Playa Matapalo, was truly fantastic. The all-inclusive experience here is top-notch, delivering both luxury and a wonderfully relaxing atmosphere with incredible value. The all-inclusive concept is seamless. It was fantastic knowing everything was taken care of, from the wide variety of dining options to the drinks by the pool. The thoughtful minibar service was a great included perk—having the refrigerator stocked with several bottles of liquor and a selection of refreshing beers made the stay feel truly premium and convenient without any extra charge. The room accommodations exceeded expectations. I especially loved the jacuzzi in the room, which was the perfect way to unwind after a day in the Costa Rican sun. Dining was a highlight, and while the resort offers several great all-inclusive options, the Italian restaurant was definitely my favorite! The food quality and service there were exceptional, making for a memorable dinner experience. Beyond the food and the stunning location, the staff made all the difference. Everyone I encountered was incredibly nice and helpful, contributing to a warm and welcoming environment throughout the resort. For a great blend of beautiful beachfront, outstanding service, luxury amenities, and unbeatable all-inclusive value in Guanacaste, I highly recommend the Hotel Riu Palace Costa Rica.

Beautiful community!

The property is in bad condition. The rooms are nice, but need maintenance our room had some holes in the gypsum. The bed very goodThe bathroom also very good but could use a shower curtain.Because water goes everywhere when taking a shower. The grounds are very very nice. The beach can be accessed with a small taxi that goes from the rooms to the beach and back.This service is all throughout today. The reason for my low evaluation is the food. This hotel is all inclusive, but the food is very, very substandard.For an international hotel, breakfast is basically local food.Every day, the same thing. For international travelers, there is not much variation in the food.Everything looks and tastes like "gajitos" food that you can buy in the street for very little money. As and all inclusive resortThe drinks were free and were in abundance. I recommend trying to use a small exclusive restaurant which is sometimes included at no x.Additional cost where they serve you very, very good and tasteful food.The food that you receive for lunch or dinner again is very substandard.It's just very local, very cheap.Costa rican food, in my opinion, not suitable for foreigners. I would not recommend this hotel for international travelers
