Barrio La Guaria Hotels near Liberia

"rooms were clean and spacious. Pool was excellent. Fitness centre was well equipped. Sometimes a language barrier in communicating with staff but they were always friendly and helpful. Free airport transport was a nice feature. Breakfast buffet was adequate but many things were not hot and the pricing varied considerable depending on who you spoke with. Expedia website suggested 17 USD pp but some staff were suggesting 36 USD pp. "

"Very close to the airport and coinvent to have a restaurant on property. Gives a very Costa Rican feel. The road noise made sleep a bit difficult but our kids loved the pool, iguanas on property and the fresh mangos falling out of the trees. "

"Room was well appointed, comfy and clean."

"Very nice peoperty. My mountain view cabin was amazing! No view of mountain but there's a great view 2 mins walk away at the Miraflores Restaurant. Rough road getting in. Hotel arranged a taxi for us to the airport in Liberia, $100 US cash. The road conditions are an issue. I personally wouldn't drive my own vehicle on this path. Hotel should get this paved. It’s not an issue that it's gravel per se, the issue is more like how uneven it is and the hilly parts have pot holes that were reminiscent of my atv jungle tour. Included breakfast buffet - but had limited options and food wasn't hot. 4/10 both days. My son opted for cereal and he's not a cereal kid. Fruit was fresh and delicious. If ordering a coffee at one of the restaurants, ask for milk separately. I like a little milk (still mid brown colour but staff adds too much and makes it a light beige. No longer tastes like coffee). Miraflores restaurant used a sad, old pineapple slice for my Pina Colado. Had a perfect one at Jaguar Restaurant (next to reception). Pool is nice but no changeroom/washroom. Closest is at hotel reception. Can easily renovate one of the rooms that's right by the pool. Bar menu at pool is limited and again, without a washroom I wasn't keen to order more than one drink. And only ordered 1 total. Change this "one thing" and sales will increase dramatically"

"Peacocks are fascinating but loud. Front desk staff were rude to other guests and seemed like they had never checked in guests before "

"All of the staff were so friendly and helpful! It was an amazing place to stay!"

"The building was run down. The beds were hard and uncomfortable. When trying to check out to go to the airport to catch a flight, they wanted us to wait until they searched our room to make sure we didn’t steal anything. We would not come back to this location. "

" Don't do it. Spend the extra money."

"Upon first glance, this is a beautiful property. The grounds are well maintained and the staff couldn't have been nicer. But the food made me violently ill. Nothing I ate during my time there was outstanding (which is to be expected at an all-inclusive in this price range), but it was the seafood soup that put me over the edge. Other guests reported having similar stomach issues. Needless to say, I won't be going back. I mean, the least an international resort can do is not poison its guests, right?"
