Pablo and Brandon welcomed us to a gorgeous, dreamy place surrounded by greenery and tranquility—an excellent "Suitree" in Guanacaste, in the middle of the forest. Our room was spacious, spotless, and well-appointed. It is a fascinating place... very well maintained and with unique details. There is an excellent view of the entire hill complex. When we have the chance, we will stop again at this oasis of tranquility. It is a beautiful experience that I wholeheartedly recommend.

Incredible value, you could easily pay twice this for the stay, don’t let the low price pit you off, you are getting a bargain! location very close to beach, lovely owners who went the extra mile. The owner, who works very hard to keep the property in good condition and customers happy, very kindly did a load of washing for us at no charge which was very much appreciated. Beautiful breakfast which was also plentiful and served to order. Beach supplies such as beach towels, bug spray, body boards and deck chairs also available to borrow which was very useful and kind.

Beautiful grounds and swimming pool, amazingly clean and welcoming. Several nice beaches nearby. All guests were quiet and considerate, within their accommodations and in public spaces, allowing everyone to enjoy the serenity of the lodge and natural sounds of birds, geckos, howler monkeys, cows, and waves crashing nearby. This said, if you don't care for "the all of nature" including an occasional gecko, lizard, or small insect in/around your accommodations, this may not be the place for you. :) The managers are wonderful to speak with and provided excellent recommendations - understandably proud of this beautiful eco lodge.

We loved our stay at Tuki Tuki. It’s a small resort located walkable to the beach. The staff is sooo friendly and really treat you like family. We LOVED our stay at Tuki Tuki and wish we could have stayed longer. Rooms were super clean and spacious! JP the owner/host goes above and beyond to make your stay incredible. Hazel the cook/ cleaning lady makes delicious breakfasts and does an amazing job keeping the place clean. We loved the small resort atmosphere and meeting the other guests. It truly felt like coming home to friends at the end of each day.

Generally quiet, even next to the highway. We were greeted by the owner's two teenage sons. Clearly managers in training. The kitchen beside the pool was well equipped for our breakfast of cold cereal. There is a hot plate and BBQ which we did not try out. Both beds were pushed against the walls. We were able to move the double bed away from the wall and use the side chair so both sides of the bed could have a bedside table of sorts. Towels are thick, soft.and absorbant. Shower is slow to heat but then warm.

Tamarindo has everything you need.

Tamarindo has everything you need. Crazy expensive advice is to buy duty free at the airport. Stop outside of Tamarindo and buy water and snacks because you will pay double inside Tamarindo. We love Dragon fly bar and Grill!

Liberia is a good jumping off spot for the northern half of Costa Rica. It's worth spending a couple of nights there if you stay at Hotel Liberia which is downtown. Although Liberia itself doesn't offer much in the way of tourist attractions, it's a good central spot for some of the nearby parks.

Great town great beach.

Great town great beach. Good supermarkets and friendly people in general. We met some locals through some friends and we were made to feel at home quite quickly. Nice place. Go to the Burger Window, (Google it) its in an open bar which has a few other eating stalls as well. A great curry shack too. But the burgers at Burger Window really are SUPERB. The service is quite non committal. There are few smiles and you can get put off by that. But listen, the burgers are worth the grief. Also try the crepes both savory and sweet at the little Ahora Si shop and then try the big Ahora Si restaurant further up the street. Both owned by the same family. Both very good choices. Ask for Antonio at the little Ahora Si crepe place

It is a good place to find a restaurant and nightlife.

It is a good place to find a restaurant and nightlife. There are much nicer beaches close by if you are looking to enjoy the water and a nice sunset. Unfortunately the rising costs in Costa Rica are making it less desirable to visit. It is getting run down in many areas and the costs are climbing dramatically.

A nice beach town which has most conveniences but is not too big. We had visited in 1988 so the development since then was breathtaking. We visited during the off-season (October) so it was very rainy but had clear periods each day. The advantage to visiting this time of year is hotel prices are generally lower, but many businesses are closed so for example a restaurant you wanted to visit may not be open and I had more difficulty renting a good surfboard than I thought I would. As mentioned before, the rain can be a problem during the off-season but I understand the period from December to April is mostly rain free. I would imagine the town is much more crowded in season which could affect the experience.

We stayed at Hotel Velero right off the beach in Playa Hermosa. It was relatively quiet (in the best way!) compared to the neighboring Playa del Coco. The beach was clean, the sand was soft, and the temperature was great. We saw dolphins and great sea birds from breakfast at Hotel Velero. We also had dinner at Roberto's and La Casita del Marisco. I would highly recommend Playa Hermosa to everyone and would love to return!

Playa Flamingo was one of our favorite stops on our 10-day trip. It's scenic, relaxed, and incredibly fun to explore. Driving along the coast was a highlight in itself, with beautiful ocean views and plenty of little spots to pull over and enjoy. Getting around was super easy with a car or motorcycle, though you do have to watch out for the many potholes and speed bumps. Where we ate: Coco Loco- Incredible food right on the beach, and the piña coladas were honestly some of the best we’ve ever had. Gracia La Vid- Amazing pizzas in a casual, open-air setting. Fun vibe, great for dinner after a day in the sun. Playa Flamingo is perfect for groups of friends looking for a mix of adventure and relaxation. We enjoyed a sunset catamaran tour, horseback riding, ATV tours, and jet ski rentals. All are easy to book and great ways to experience the coast. If you’re looking for beautiful beaches, great food, and plenty of activities, Playa Flamingo is definitely worth a visit.

The resort was nice, pool was refreshing.

The resort was nice, pool was refreshing. No premium drinks, a bottle of Crown was $90, and only 1 brand of beer. The food at the buffet wasn't the greatest. Fish was dry, salad dressings were odd or just oil and vinegar. One day I had a poached egg and the yolk was hard and the whites were runny. French toast was hard and tough on the outside and soggy on the middle. You could only eat in the specialty restaurants once for every 3 days of stay.

I was in Potrero for 3 nights alone on business. The location is quite and off the tourist map. There are a few local restaurants and bars, but not a lot going on. Its a great place to get away and relax, but pretty remote from all of the major destinations. There are other even more remote beaches just north of here that are worth visiting, so a few days here can be worth it.
