Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Barú?
The best area to stay in Barú is along the coastal stretch near Playa Dominicalito for a balance of convenience and natural beauty.

This area offers easy access to the main coastal road, Route 34, which connects you to other attractions. You'll find a selection of high-top hotels located into the hillsides, often providing stunning ocean views. It's a slightly more secluded feel compared to the busier Dominical town centre, yet still close enough to amenities.

For couples seeking a refined and tranquil escape, this area is perfect. Many accommodations here cater to a discerning clientele with private villas, infinity pools, and personalised services. You can enjoy the sounds of nature, relax by the ocean, and still be a short drive from excellent dining options in Dominical or Uvita.

Families looking for a comfortable and accessible base will also appreciate this location. The calmer waters of Playa Dominicalito are suitable for swimming, and properties often feature amenities like spacious grounds and swimming pools.
When is the best time to go to Barú?
The best time to go to Barú is during the dry season, which typically runs from December to April, offering the most consistent sunshine and pleasant weather for exploring.

During these months, you'll experience less rainfall, making it ideal for outdoor activities like surfing, wildlife tours, and relaxing on the beaches. The ocean conditions are generally calmer, which is great for swimming and snorkelling. While it's a popular time, and you might encounter more visitors, the excellent weather ensures you can make the most of your trip without worrying about daily downpours.

If you're keen on seeing nesting sea turtles, particularly the Olive Ridley, the peak nesting season is from July to November. While this falls within the green (rainy) season, the rain often comes in short, heavy bursts, and there's still plenty of sunshine. This period offers a unique wildlife experience, and you might find accommodation at slightly better value.

Ultimately, for a classic beach holiday with lots of sun, December to April is your best bet.
Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?
You can cancel your hotel reservation on Expedia, though it depends on the cancellation policy of your booking. Most bookings are refundable if canceled within 24-48 hours of the scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. If free cancellation is available, you can cancel directly through your Expedia account by logging in, going to "My Trips", and selecting your reservation. To find flexible deals, filter your search by "Fully refundable property" for hotels in Barú.
How much is the nightly rate at a Barú hotel?
Prices for hotels in Barú often vary, but you can find a great deal from £25 on Expedia. All sorts of factors affect price, such as the time of year or the days of the week you choose for your stay. Find the best deals by being flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for the cheapest rate.
