Loved the place, great location, walking distance to everything in Guiones. Bikes available are a must try to move easier and faster around the area. 4WD recommended as roads are not in great condition. Would go back!

Guacamaya Lodge, hotel in Playa Azul

Offering an outdoor pool, tennis courts and massages services, Guacamaya Lodge is located in Paraíso, 9 minutes’ walk from Junquillal Beach. Free WiFi access is available in this lodge.

The location of the hotel was great, a little far from San Jose airport, so I would reccomend to land at Liberia airport, which is only a 90 minute drive. However, it was in a private area and very safe, with a 5 minute walk to the beach. Everything else was amazing and succeed and of my expectations.

Mundo Milo Eco Lodge, hotel in Playa Azul

Surrounded by the jungle and offering a wooden restaurant, palapa roof bungalows and a swimming pool, Mundo Milo Eco Lodge is located 350 metres from Juquillal Beach.

The hosts were so friendly and helpful! They made my daughter and I feel like we were visiting old friends. The pool is stunning, the meals were tasty, and the tips of where to go and what to do were so helpful. They lent us snorkeling equipment so we could explore the tide pools - a real highlight! We had a pair of adorable owls watching over us at, and a family of monkeys came through. The beach is stunning and very private - no crowds or peddlers. Nearby beaches are great for swimming and snorkeling...it was a great spot to explore the region.

Latica Lodge, hotel in Playa Azul

Located in Playa Negra, Latica Lodge features a garden and terrace. Both free WiFi and private parking are available at the hotel.

We were fascinated by the whole hotel complex. The rooms, reception and kitchen are designed with style and creativity. The pool is a perfect place to chill at any time of the day and kind of magic. There is a fireplace for the guests in front of the hotel which makes evenings even more cozy. The personal is very friendly. The neighborhood is a quiet one. There is a beach bar and several places to eat not far away from the hotel (20 - 30 min walk or 5 min to drive). The beach (playa negra) is not overrun and we like it due to its relaxed atmosphere.

    Very nice hotel, located directly at the beach. Excellent restaurant and pool bar. Friendly staff. The rooms have been large, newly renovated and clean, with fridge and kitchenette. I spend a week there with my adult kids and we had lots of fun.

    Traveled from Phila, PA with my older sister to visit my brother and his family who bought land to build upon. They are renting. The resort was not at all crowed during our stay and was beautiful in all aspects of our visit. Several pictures to compliment this write up. My sister stayed in an upper floor and I was on the lower. View of the ocean was gorgeous. Food was excellent and the staff exceptionally friendly and helpful. This place is a Diamond in the Rough.

    This place is amazing! The view from our balcony was incredible. Our family of 4 fit perfectly and the amenities were perfect for us. Fridge, small stove top, coffee maker, great pool and seating areas, swim up bar for watermelon batidas, and poolside service for snacks, access to the beach. Most of the staff are incredibly kind and humble. Joel, Yustin, and Jose we so kind to us and our children. Cool beaches near by for day trips. We totally recommend this place and we will stay here again.

    Our room was absolutely lovely, really big, very comfortable bed, outside shower was great and a hammock on the little deck out front, overlooking the sunset. Glorious. The pool was nice, and the swim up bar is a fun touch, if you can afford their prices. The beach itself is lovely to walk along, particularly in the morning, and we saw some great acrobatics form the pelicans. The swim up barman was really friendly. The food in the restaurant was nice and the sunset is really lovely here.
