    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!!!!!

    The location was a bit difficult to find, as we had to drive on a street that didn't look like a street and was not marked. The photo from the listing helped us to identify the property. The house was light and airy and nicely furnished. The swimming pool was just right after a day of traveling. Large backyard with furniture and grill. Close to the beach.

    Jasmine and her husband were absolutely wonderful. They really made me feel welcome. The apartment was spotless. Inside parking. It's not on the beach (near) and a 10 minute drive to Puntarenas, but I highly recommend staying here and using it as your base. The breakfast was delicious. Would definitely go back. Very good service and room for the price

    The Villa was perfect, we had everything we needed and the location was ideal to visit famous surfer spots and national parks. The owners of the house are super helpful and kind and always there if anything is needed. We felt very safe and comfortable and recommend it to everyone who is planning to stay in the Puntarenas/Jaco area!

    Staying here was the best possible decision I could have made for my time in Puntarenas. The location was minutes to the beach and the hosts could not have been more helpful and supportive going so far as to drop me off for my bus. Highly recommended!!!

    The location is right at the beach and it is runner by the family. We felt welcomed and private at the same time. The patio of the room is just incredible - you can see the birds, parrots, a life of the jungle.The sunrise is incredible!!

    We have family in the Barranca area and have stayed here before. We really enjoy the oasis of calm in the middle of the Roble area of Puntarenas. The pool is beautiful and the grounds are well-kept.

    We used this hotel as a cheap pit stop to break up the car journey from Quepos to Monteverde. It served this purpose by the skin of its teeth. Food was good for evening dinner.

    The only reason we stayed here is because we planned a trip to Playa Tortugas, so location was a plus. We were not big fans of the town. Hotel was just ok. Staff was friendly.
