The food is not the best. Check in was terrible. So is the wife ##### Juan Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Eric 10 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Room: 6.5/10 (Our room was cleaned well, decent view, but sound echoes throughout hallway make it hard to sleep) Restaurants: 2/10 (First come first served.. want to eat dinner at 6pm.. show up at 5pm to get in line, food is mediocre at best) Staff: 7/10 (Our interactions with staff was warm and friendly) Amenities: 5/10 (We enjoyed the close proximity to the beach) Overall: 5.5/10 - The hotel and surrounding area is absolutely beautiful, the locals are friendly and helpful, but we really felt like there was nothing else spectacular about the resort. We came as a part of a wedding party and they had their own issues with the entire process. ##### Eric Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Isis 13 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel staff at the Riu Guanacaste made our trip super comfortable. They were timely in meeting all of our needs. The “Michael Jackson” show is a must see, as we were thoroughly entertained. And you have to visit the onsite steak house restaurant! The salmon is the best thing in the menu. However, there were two things that took away from our stay; (1) the check-in process. It took us over 2 hours to check-in. We thought that after flying over 5 hours and then catching a 45 minute taxi that the check-in process would’ve been more streamlined. However, this was not the case. The Riu has to do better with their check-in process. (2) The food. Aside from the steak house restaurant, the food onsite was mid at best. We found ourselves longing for McDonald’s, which is something we rarely eat. All in all, this trip was a success but we are not sure if we would revisit this location again. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4cec85dd-529f-462d-b70e-dd3efc65fd9a-1763070122283.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8282b3f3-0894-42cb-a113-c2290a694118-1763070126796.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1ff7b6ec-6029-4702-a779-e444ce6775a5-1763070126679.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Isis Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Yolanda 28 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Friendly staff.

The staff was beyond friendly , always went above and beyond. The pools were great and loved the pool bars. Drinks tasted great and kept on coming. Excursions around the area were so much fun. Only down side about this hotel is the restaurants they have are soooo small and super annoying to make reservations for. We ended up only trying two of the restaurants. The buffets however were tasty and offered good options!! ##### Sabrina Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeremy 13 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The beach was amazing.
