    Very run down.

    Very run down. We went passed the local prison 2 roads away from place we had originally booked. No trees,no green, just run down building with barb wires and high gates, corrugated iron....not nice, avoid.

    While the hotel and staff were lovely and helpful the common verandah didn't allow for much privacy. The hotel was also at least 5kms from the rest of the town with no shops or restaurants nearby, so a little isolated. But the beach just across the road was a bonus.

    Plenty of restaurants, activities to explore, etc. For me, It totally depends on your hotel. I’ve stayed in Puntarenas many times, but my trip this week to Hotel Puntarenas Beach was, sadly, my worst hotel experience in Puntarenas.

    Nice city, you feel quiet safe, only at the beach and i the city a lot of agressiv beggers and seems like the police dont care, told they are not locals, but from the countries around Costa Rica, for the rest its a great place, easy to drive around in the region and see everything in max 3 hours drive away, locals drive nice, even the trucks.So will go back again

    Puntarenas is only worth the visit if you're gonna take the ferry boat to the islands next to it. The beaches are not great, full of trash, plastic , i guess because of the location and the currents? Not a lot to see or do. Not impressed.

    Friendly town with lots of friendly people.

    Friendly town with lots of friendly people. Great spot to visit the smaller islands and their virgin beaches. Please visit the light house area and Isla Cocos restaurant. The fresh seafood is excellent and the staff wonderful.

    This was the best hotel we had in Costa Rica. The two ladies are so nice and friendly. They even made us a little tapas plate to make us feel extra welcome. The hotel is even MUCH better thank you expect from the pictures; the rooms are really big and very clean and good looking, a little Ibiza vibes. We booked this hotel for one night but we are going back in two days because we had just such a wonderfull time over here. Nearby the ferry to Paquera, just a 5 minute drive. EXCELLENT!!!!!

    During my stay I felt at absolute peace. The property is in a secluded place where you can hear ara macaws, congos, parakeets and wind chimes, that's all. If you want to enjoy nature, this is the place you should go. You can also visit many beautiful beaches and national parks on one-day trips, the location is strategic.

    The property has all the essentials of a hotel without the price of a hotel. The place is within walking distance from the beach. We booked a tour within the property to go to Isla Tortuga, which was very good value for the price. The staff from Puntarenas Bed & Coffee are very customer oriented, helpful and friendly!

    We stayed in this hotel as an overnight before taking the Paquera ferry to the Guanacaste Peninsula. The hotel was clean and acceptable. Certainly no frills but all we needed was a bed to rest our heads before moving on. This hotel fit the bill just fine.

    We loved our stay at D'Palm Villas! We felt really comfortable at this stunning property. It was perfect for our two young kids to run around and play. With the beach being so close by I would highly recommend anyone to stay here!! Thanks for having us.

    The hotel is built like and old school US motel. The rooms are grouped around a pool. It’s pretty new and in really good conditions, very clean. The pool is beautiful and everything is kept nice and neat. Breakfast gets made to order, fresh.
