Check-in was smooth and they originally had us on a second floor but changed it to a main floor room upon our request. The rooms are large and comfortable. The pool looked lovely and the restaurant was a good size. The included breakfast was fine. The only disappointment was the restaurant wasn't open for dinner as indicated on the website. We would definitely recommend a stay here."

Top Playa Tárcoles Hotel Reviews

Nomad Living CR

10/10 Excellent

"El lugar es muy bonito y limpio. La piscina muy rica!"

Santa Lucia Jungle Hacienda, Costa Rica, Autograph Collection®

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was amazing! It was during the week so very quiet but regardless it was very peaceful. The food was also really good."

Akua Ocean View Suites

10/10 Excellent

"This place was nice for the price you pay! A trek from the Airport , about $250 spent on round trip and an hour and a half each way . The space was nice .. room looks exactly like the pictures. The second night tho the lights , which include the AC went out for about 3-4 hours .. it was so hot ! Eventually it came back on but just a little annoying trying to sleep in that . Aside from those things , the space itself was definitely worth what you pay for and Uber was readily available and was how we got around for the most part. The gate closes and locks at a certain time so we felt extra security with that feature."

Hotel Cerro Lodge

8/10 Good

"Great place for the price."

Luxury Villa w/ Ocean, Mountain Views, King Suites & Hot Tub - Sleeps 10

Tarcoles Birding Lodge

"This place is a gem! The view up in the mountains, overlooking the sea. A birder’s paradise. The value is incredible. My kids wept when we left. Loved our stay. Thank you"

Sunset Villa, Pacific Views, Private Pool & Gym, Near Carara & Jaco, 1hr to SJO

10/10 Excellent

"We had the best time ever in this gorgeous home. The views are amazing. We had coffee with toucans and macaws, evening visitors like coatimundis, and so many other birds. Stargazing was fun sitting by the pool at night. We loved jumping in the pool after a day of adventures, and even swimming in a pop up rain storm. We were able to easily travel down to Play Herradura and Jaco beach for activities and restaurants. Having the grill on the deck was great for when we just wanted to relax and have some burgers. Edgar was a wonderful concierge. Extremely attentive and communicative. Adam and Maurice were so easy to chat with and figure out all the booking requirements.I give this a 10/10 and already recommending to friends and family who saw our amazing pictures and want to go.
