Parador Nature Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful resort, I couldn’t recommend it more. You will definitely see tons of animals. If you have a balcony room, they have amazing views. Truly, you don’t even need to leave the property to get a wonderful look at the wildlife of Costa Rica. The staff were so friendly and helpful. Finally the food was absolutely amazing! I’m a vegetarian and there was always something I could eat. Pools were great too. It’s a great place for couples or families."

JW Marriott Guanacaste Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"Ok, so after spending 8 days here we can give a very thorough review and comparison to the W that we also stayed at nearby for 3 nights. The staff was amazing!!! Beware!!! The road is ridiculous into the property!! It is a dirt road that has random animals, atv’ers, parked card and other fun surprises. Apparently they are working on a permanent paved road but this one is definitely a problem. It almost made you not want to leave the property. It was exactly 42 min each way to Tamarindo. The grounds were not kept to the jw standard. The gardens were dry and overgrown, the pool chairs had bird poop all over them, and the staff only cleans up the pool area at the end of the day. All the food and drink cups sit out all day. In addition, the elevator had mold all around the top rim, and the food was sub par. We did the all inclusive so we ate everywhere. The best restaurant was the Azul restaurant by the beach. The pool was huge. My kids had a blast. The ocean has full on waves and rocks, so it can be dangerous. There are no water sports like the W has. Also, the JW is in a dry area, there was little go no wildlife (monkeys, bugs, frogs, etc), a plus for me! The W is in a mangrove so its crazy buggy and filled with howler monkeys, lizards, etc. with all that being said the vibe at the JW was better. The W is built on a hillside and its a shlep everywhere and its not a hotel feel. We loved the W’s room (we had a suite with a jacuzzi outside) we would still choose the JW."

The Royal Corin Thermal Water Spa & Resort - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"After a recent visit to La Fortuna, my friends and I stayed at the Royal Corin. I initially set up transportation with the resort via expedia messaging. They accidently sent the wrong driver. We got a taxi instead. However, as soon as we got to the resort everyone was so nice and apologetic. They immediately took care of us. The resort was beautiful, clean, and in a great location. It was a calm resort and several couples and small groups. Our room was so pretty and spacious. The daily free breakfast was delicious. The pools were so warm and the jacuzzi was amazing. Pool food was very good as well. We had dinner at their restaurant Lava and it was gorgeous and provided the most spectacular volcano view. The food was very delicious. I have no complaints about this resort! it was such a treat to stay here! Unfortunately I do not remember everyone's name but every staff member here was beyond kind. The front desk, the man that took our luggage upstairs and greeted us when we arrived, the restaurant, pool bar. Some of the nicest people ever! Thank you so much for your hospitality and making us feel so welcomed."

Hotel Tamarindo Diria Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"The resort is beautiful, especially on the ocean side of the street. The pool at the other side is large with a swim-up bar and very pleasant. Front desk and site personnel were great. Concierge not so much. I could tell they just book with the companies they have an agreement with, without any concern for what we are looking for- they were on autopilot and just pointed to whatever was shown on their iPad. I wouldn't recommend doing the ATV forest tour through them. It was mostly farmland with some forest, and saw zero animals. The estuary mangrove tour was excellent, and I would recommend going as early as possible. The breakfast buffet was excellent, with seating overlooking the ocean. The rooms are as expected and clean. The view from the oceanfront rooms is gorgeous. No toilet paper allowed in toilets, just fyi. The restaurants on the "Boulevard" had extra-long waits for food. The servers were all pleasant but either short-staffed or highly disorganized. DO NOT TRY THEIR SUSHI restaurant. Worst sushi ever eaten in our lives. The hotel's gelataria was great and reasonably priced. The lines look long, but they are well-staffed and go fast. The Bar is good about having pitchers of water to refill water bottles, but otherwise, there isn't a dedicated water refill station. There is a liquor store near the hotel where you can buy bottled water, Gatorade, soda, etc. Location is NOT secluded but near shops and restaurants, which is what we wanted."
