Family friendly Hotels in Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica

"The hotel turns off water every night from 1 am to 4 am or so. It is inconvenient with no water. Also be careful with the charges even if you have paid upfront during the reservation. "

"Drinks were made with real fruit juice and you could order whatever drink your heart desired from the two swim-up bars or other bar.. Water in the pools and ocean were so warm and inviting for swimming. We snorkelled at the end of the beach near the rocks and were happy to spot a few pretty fish, sea urchins and were at one time engulfed in a school of small green fish. Food at the buffet was excellent with so much variety and healthy options. If you prefer not-as-health options, there was a special snack menu for burgers, fries and pizza etc. This is a resort that is close to nature and we will plan to return for sure. A 30 minute drive from Liberia and with our direct flight, it was an amazing resort to visit! A very relaxing mid-sized resort."

"Our family enjoyed the stay. The food was basic and the adults wished for a bit more of a local cuisine option but the kids were very happy."

"Words aren’t enough to describe the magical vibe of this place! If feels like we are in a jungle but it’s a luxurious resort. On our last morning, we saw a family of howler monkeys on the hotel property trees. About 5 pair of parrots flying by. Other people said they saw humming birds too. The food was gourmet! They have amazing vegan food as well. The garden path to the beach from the resort is an amazing idea. You have best of the both worlds - beach front and hidden jungle resort. The staff are all so nice and welcoming. We will def come back here. "

"The resort was beautiful! The service was outstanding! "

"Pool was great, the hotel was old, needed reno's"

"Breakfast was good and plentiful, Bryan at the front desk had excellent service and answered every question we had. The pool offers great views and has a pretty sweet bar."

"The worst hotel I ever been. Food was terrible, dinning room area disgraceful. The website lied about having 2 dinning areas. The place should be shut down. I'll give them -2"

"The good: Nice big pool. Nice beach Great clean property Nice big room. We had a 4th floor room with 2 levels so it was spacious and great view of the countryside. Excellent staff. The bad: Food was terrible. We stopped going except for breakfast by the 2nd day. Breakfast thankfully had a fresh omelette, and the italian restaurant was decent. Otherwise we simply couldn't stomach the buffet. Very few choices which didn't change and badly cooked. Thats just not right when you are paying $200 extra a night and could so easily be much better. I felt sorry for the kids that were there as the options were non-existant. They had a beach grill where you could get a hamburger cooked fresh a few hours per day, otherwise the food there looked like it had been there for days and nobody was eating it. The bed was terrible. Old and hard. straight sheet for a bottom sheet so was crumpled up within an hour. Pillows were different sizes and makes but either lumpy or flat. A shame really as they could make this place top notch without much investment."
