The best hotels Costa Rica

Since 2001, Roxana and Fernando Carré, a former pharmacist from Buenos Aires, have been running this small 6-room hotel. Former customers, they ended up buying the building for which they had fallen in love. Nice little pool. The setting, although quite simple, is neat and charming. The hotel also offers beautiful meats thanks to its restaurant opened on the concept of a steakhouse where we also offer seafood.

José-Pablo and Natalia have taken over the estate since May 2017. The hotel offers beautiful bungalow and a house for up to 11 people. A specialist in permaculture, José-Pablo imagined the garden in this sense. This is how the garden abounds with butterflies, hummingbirds and red frogs. This is a very interesting place to admire birds too. A small farm is full of corn, ayote and frijoles. Man is also a nature guide. Inside the hotel you will find a small shop used for the sale of traditional Artisanat crafts, but also of artisanal cheeses, organic coconut oil, chocolate of Finca Loroco, etc.

A charming guest room, in full nature, 3 km from the beach of Cocles. Véronique and his team will be able to welcome you with professionalism in French. The six casitas, houses for one to four people, have a river or a lush vegetation. Comfortable and well equipped (kitchenette, terrace, hammock, etc.), they are carefully decorated, according to themed colours. The interest of being away from beaches is, of course, to be able to observe more easily the fauna (monkeys, lazy, toucans, butterflies, etc.) that evolve in the midst of majestic trees. And for swimming, a beautiful swimming pool awaits you. The breakfast is served under a typical rancho and a bar opens from to for convivial evenings. Finally, Véronique can organise numerous excursions in the region. In short, a place that will delight nature lovers.

Before the construction of this complex, we could almost say that Playa Panama had nothing to offer… The big complex is nestled in the heart of the Gulf of Papagayo. The lobby terrace offers a splendid view of the Pacific. An all-inclusive inclusive experience where scream vegetation and singes monkeys have a say. The gardens invite beautiful walks and meetings with the fauna of the area. The pool of three pools is very pleasant, pool bar and snack snack. Some rooms directly overlook the hotel, with children. Other bungalows are facing the sea, simply divine. There is a swimming pool exclusively reserved for adults looking for calm and privacy. The room was very clean and the room was very clean. The room was clean and comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful. Hilton Papagayo also has a beautiful spa. To get around this huge complex, a free shuttle bus will pick you up in less than 5 minutes, wherever you are. Several options for meals; The products used in both the kitchen and the bar are of very good quality. Overall, a very good value/price ratio - an all inclusive luxury finally!

Rooms with simple comfort in a charming property set on the edge of the forest and a 5-minute walk from the town centre of Quepos. A swimming pool nestled in the top of the property and lost in leaves gives a small touch of exoticism.

The Pagalù is distinguished from the other youth hostels in Puerto Viejo (and hostels in general) because it is a very beautiful establishment, in the style of the highest standard of Costa Rica, with wooded rooms distributed on a courtyard courtyard. It is quietly located, just a few hundred metres from the hustle and bustle of Puerto Viejo, and is ideal for backpackers who still want some fun. It is also popular with any kind of traveller, and one quickly understands why: beautiful dorms of 4 beds, beautifully decorated, clean bathrooms and design at a time, common spaces colourful and spacious, a common kitchen well equipped and well kept, and a very kind welcome. A good address from Puerto Viejo!

Two types of comfort, but for the sole purpose of offering the best quality/price ratio for heavily loaded passengers.

A simple address, without too much charm but clean, not expensive and comfortable in a quiet area far from pollution and noise. The owner, very nice, has a tourist agency and organizes outings at La Fortuna waterfall, butterfly garden, crocodiles farm, etc. He currently learns French to receive you better.

The wooden bungalows are quietly distributed in the garden and offer a view of the forest or the river Savegre. There are many possibilities for guided or non-guided strolls, bird watching (quetzales) through the beautiful virgin forest. You should not miss the visit of the National Park of Los Quetzales, which is a few kilometres away. Bikes can also be rented for a day excursion with lunch-box (USD 6). The lodge has a restaurant "El Quetzal" which offers an international and local map. But the chef's specialty remains trout. Freshly caught in the river that crosses the area, it's definitely the dish to test. Vegetarian menus are adaptable upon request. Finally a bar on the edge of the river makes it possible to spend a moment relaxing almost the feet in the water!

A charming bed and breakfast hosted by a Belgian French-speaking pensioner. The rooms are comfortable and well equipped (fridge, microwave, coffee machine). Their decoration, typically French with photos of Paris, is the most coveted. The room in Costa Rica is also dépaysante. Michelle, the mistress of the house, will be in care with you and you will treat a delicious and rich breakfast.
