Great location - right on the beach and an easy walk to restaurants, etc. Our room was comfortable and clean, and had a balcony with view of ocean. Great restaurant - Roberto's - on the premises. Food and menu selections were very good for both breakfast and dinner. One of my favorite parts of this hotel was all the varied spaces where one could sit outdoors: at the restaurant right on the beach (or up under cover out of the sun); on the upper level where there was a small pool and a great view of the sunset over the water; and at least one area on each floor with a couple of chairs/ loveseat/ coffee table. Highly recommend!

Great location to start your trip to Costa Rica, it's 30min away from Liberia. The hotel has a good restaurant right next door and a small store right after. Less than 10 minutes away from the beach.
The room wasn't anything special, but as shown. Nice pool area though.

A few nice beachside restaurants. Great sunsets.
A few nice beachside restaurants. Great sunsets. Perfect beach for relaxing and swimming as waves are moderate, not a busy place, but access to plenty of water adventures or outings away from the beach.
We used Juan from INFINITY TOURS to plan activities - highly recommend him. He set us up with a same day snorkel tour. Find him on Facebook or call direct at 508-8966-7107, you can also flag him down on the beach as he's often there organizing tours. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063937037776

Pretty beach...and waves ...I would have preferred calmer sea. The jet skis come in too close to the shore and are hardly ecological.
The fish restaurant on the beach is really good.. lovely staff and very fresh food at reasonable prices

The beach was a little disappointing.
The beach was a little disappointing. The access to the beach was piled with trash bags and recycling that needed collected. The concrete tables were in disrepair. Old tire laying on one of the broken benches.
The dinner and show at Villa del Sueno was great!

Really loved this calm, friendly beach.
Really loved this calm, friendly beach. The water was calm for swimming and lovely to look at. There are four nice open air restaurants facing it, we liked all of them, although Aqua Sport played very loud music at times, when the sound of waves and birds would have been much nicer.

Hosts were more than gracious, we had a small issue with the water heater and it was taken care of at our check out.

Playa Hermosa is a wonderful, small area with a fantastic, calm, sandy beach and a front row seat for the beautiful sunsets. We stayed here for our last night in Costa Rica since it's only a short drive to the Liberia airport. I would suggest spending 1 or 2 nights here at the start or end of your vacation. It's a nice alternative to staying at the airport hotel and it's very easy and quick to get to the airport by rental care or transfer (25-35 minutes depending on traffic). Just make sure that you chose the correct Playa Hermosa, there is more than one in Costa Rica!
An overnight stay after an evening arrival flight to Liberia airport. Hotel is conveniently located on the beach about 30 minutes’ drive from the airport. Hotel was quiet with only a few guests. Plenty of secured convenient parking. Very comfortable, clean and well-appointed quiet room with separate sitting area, outdoor patio with large bathroom and comfortable bed. Breakfast was wonderful, regional foods, served in the quiet exterior dining courtyard poolside. The staff were all welcoming, friendly and very helpful.
the best sunset in the world! 2 endless pools, awesome staff, we were always outside! except to sleep and shower! the apartment was great, the shuttles every 5 minutes or less were great as it is on a steep hill. Once down on the beach area, there was other hotels and restaurants to use if we wanted to. The beach bar, as it is out of the way, was always uncrowded, and so were the beach beds. They have a Ferris wheel and bumper cars with a churros stand on week ends, which is nice, churros are soooo good!
This super kool lil place is walking distance to the beach where there are several nice restaurants with awesome food..their pool is beautiful & all rooms have balconies facing it..your breakfast of several options is made when you order.after a couple days & speaking to both locals & extended stay tourists, I could walk myself because it is that SAFE..in that time also some of the locals & I were on first name basis!! Playa Hermosa is quiet, clean, & friendly..Im going to plan longer stays for sure.
Beachside location with an assortment of comfortable chairs to relax in during the day and enjoy beautiful sunsets at night. The onsite restaurant and bar and free secure parking were great. Got to see howler monkeys in a tree outside the hotel. Staff was wonderful especially Joshua in the bar who not only makes amazing drinks, but brings the Pura Vida vibe - amazing stay!
Right on the beach, nice restaurant and pool. Easy to walk the beach to find other places to eat. Love the sunset views, nice public balcony area you can sit and relax on second floor. Room is pretty basic and clean but everything you can ask for, for the price. Definitely check out Pescado Loco Bar And Restaurant right behind the hotel!
We had a lovely two days at this basic family hotel. We loved the closeness to the beach and the cleanliness. We didn’t use the pool but it was very clean. The furniture is basic and dated but the beds were comfortable and everything worked. Breakfast was basic and tasty. We appreciated that they let us access our room early.
The view from the hotelroom as well as the Villa and restaurant was phenomenal. The Villa was very spacious and clean.
The restaurant staff was very accomodating to prepare ad hoc Kid friendly dishes. The shuttle service throughout the property and to the beach was great. Free kayaks&paddleboards at the beach were a plus!
Diego, Palo,Shirley Jorge...all the staff did their best...free breakfast was always made to order and fresh off the menu All food was great though dinner menu a touch pricy...but Then again, always fresh!! House keeping was exceptional!!
Location tops! “HAPPY HOUR” a b0nus
Very well maintained property, friendly and helpful staff, quick access to the beach via shuttle (special thanks from the 2.5 year old traveller). The beach (Playa Hermosa) is picturesque and clean, all the facilities are right there.
Overall a great choice for a family vacation.
Great location to start your trip to Costa Rica, it's 30min away from Liberia. The hotel has a good restaurant right next door and a small store right after. Less than 10 minutes away from the beach.

Breakfast had various options and they all seemed to be pretty good
The room was spacious enough and comfortable
The beach was super close to the hotel, perhaps a couple of blocks
Dinner at the hotel restaurant was amazing! (Fair price)
The hotel is a beach front property. Playa Hermosa is quieter, less touristy than other beaches. The beach is very clean, and the water is clear. The hotel pool on the roof has one of the best views of the bay.
The hosts are amazing...kind and generous. Had breakfast basic in the fridge on arrival and was gifted a lovely lasagna dinner in the middle of the week. Joanie even brought me into Playa del Coco one day.
The location is the hotel's main forte and attraction. It is set right on the quiet southern side of Playa Hermosa. The staff in the restaurant and front desk are attentive and pleasant.
Excellent place to stay in Playa Hermosa. I love the junior suites, each with a nice terrace overlooking the garden. The restaurant is a bit pricey, but the food is excellent.
The owners and staff were so friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was excellent! The pool was great to come back and cool off in after a hot day on the beach.
