Santarena Hotel is at the heart of the 1,000-acre car-free town of Las Catalinas, nestled between tree-laden hillsides on a crescent slip of beach.

Beautiful property and on the a quiet beach. The staff were absolutely fantastic and helpful. The area Catalinas is a tad remote since they are slowly building a small village which am sure will be beautiful as far as we can see. The food at the hotel was not great and the prices are insane. Catalinas is very expensive for being in Costa Rica n out of our whole trip the food was the worst on this part of Costa Rica. I would suggest going to eat at
Potrero beach down the road better food n reasonable prices.

Exceptional property! The place was very clean which isn't considered as a norm in Costa Rica. The place had nice pool and overall felt newish and updated.

got a collectivo to posh Flamingo for an ATM and walked back all the way to puerto viejo at the end on Conchal Bay. Beautiful beach. great quiet town. if you want an experience watch the sun setting and the locals dancing at Indiras. One of the great boozers.
Situated in Potrero, less than 1 km from Potrero Beach, Curiol Boutique Hotel & Lounge features accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a shared lounge.
It’s a quiet and relaxing area to visit. It’s very hot and very sunny and there’s not much shade on the beach. Be prepared to go through the sunscreen. The beach is clean, the sand is soft and white and the ocean is a spectacularly blue. The surf can be quite rough and it can be difficult to swim, so use caution.

The beach was beautiful.
The beach was beautiful. There weren't many seashells so this isn't a place for shelling, but they won't be crashing into shore and cutting up your feet either. Our kids played in the water for hours. The sunsets were amazing.

This is a beautiful facility with unbelievable views of the coastline! Close to many good restaurants and beaches. We had a rental car, but could have used the shuttle service more or rented a golf cart.

Idyllic white sand beach with turquoise water, perfect for swimming and boogie boarding. Sunsets are incredible! Coco Locos on the beach has the most delicious hot lava cooked tenderloin that can be ordered as a part of the surf and turf or without the lobster (but avoid eating here when a heavy rain due to sewer smell). Stay in luxury at The Palms Villas for top-notch service and beachfront perfection—well worth the price! Check out Monday Moonlight Market in Flamingo.

Playa Flamingo is a friendly and easy going area with good food options, a beautiful beach and amazing views. It is not too buzzy with tourist attractions which we very much liked about the area. The new marina area is very nice. There are a number of lovely shops, a new restaurant not quite opened and a bank. There are a couple of upscale hotels going up next to the marina. I hope the area can maintain it's small town charm which we found to be perfect for our vacation spot. We opted not to rent a car or golf cart (which is popular) and found the small town to be totally walkable and from town it is just a short walk to the beach. The fine sandy beach is gorgeous and not crowded and the water is amazing with just enough surf to enjoy but still be able to swim comfortably. All in all Playa Flamingo is a lovely, relatively quiet beach area that we highly recommend!

Great but relatively small hotel. Located just at the Pacific Ocean shore it offers amazing views and opportunities for a stroll on the beach. Staff was very kind and helpful. All-inclusive package is well worth its price, since both bar (drinks and snacks) and restaurant (a'la carte lunches and dinners + buffet breakfasts) serve their offer at a very high level.
There was no breakfast. And the nearby restaurant that had a breakfast was closed. The on site restaurant was very expensive and only had pastries and croisants . The marina is in very close proximity to the hotel. And the fishing was excellent. The pool was nice and security was good
This was the nicest hotel we've ever stayed at. The hotel is beautifully decorated with comfy chairs and couches in the lobby/bar area. The rooms are spacious, comfortable beds and nice cool temperature. The staff are friendly and hospitable. All in all it was a wonderful vacation.
The view is amazing. We sat on the balcony and watched the lightning storms. We walked to restaurants and Playa Flamingo. The pool is lovely. The in condo washer and dryer mean we can pack lighter.
