8/10 Very good

Nice pool, friendly and helpful staff, some notes

Very helpful staff. Absolutely beautiful grounds and building among the nature! Great location, easy parking, secure. Really enjoyed our stay. Couple notes for them to consider: They could do a better job at keeping the hawkers from harassing guests at the beach and every time coming/going between hotel and the beach. They camped out and would often bother. Also the restaurant options and pricing could use a re-work, though I'm sure the food was good. There was no mattress in the pull-out sofa, and despite multiple attempts it just kept getting replaced with regular mattresses (so you couldn't fold up the couch). I saw staff carrying around fold-out couch mattresses outside, so they were around, dunno why it was such a challenge.

Great time in quiet Playa Hermosa!

This is a great property and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff is super helpful with special call out to Diego who helped us find surfing lessons in Tamarindo on our last day at the last minute! We loved our stay here. I highly recommend it. I would say just a smidge pricey for not including breakfast...but all in all, no complaints!

David, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The pictures of this hotel do not do it justice. The cove is beautiful, the design of the rooms is so lux, and views are remarkable. The food and drinks were a bit too pricey, but there is a grocery store nearby and there are some cheaper dining options down the beach. I would come back to this hotel every year if I could. So unique!

Amazing property and amazing staff

Amazing property and amazing staff. Everyone went out of their way to help and make us feel welcome. The property is in a prime location on the beach. Walking distance to a few beach front restaurants or on site restaurant.

Very nice property. Beautiful pool and beach. Monkeys were an added bonus as they were fun to watch. Loved the relaxed vibe and soft music of this little jungle /beach resort.

The staff is so friendly and helpful. The property is clean and in a fantastic location. We were literally on the beach in one hour after landing in Liberia. We have already booked a return trip to Hotel Bosque.

Clifton, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was a great place to stay on a very nice beach. The room was very nice. Pool was ok but also kinda what we expected, still refreshing at 85 degrees. Same temp as the ocean. The sand is scorching hot so wear sandals. We walked down the beach to other restaurants for dinners because the food was better / different. Pitch black walk on the beach was interesting and the “path” was also oddly populated with people in the dark.
Mark, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place to stay

Beautiful hotel with environment that really makes it seem like a tropical rainforest, especially in the dry Guanacaste region. Friendly staff, delicious food that is reasonably priced for the area and hotel. Monitored parking across the street. Fantastic quiet and low key beach. And you have to love the sound of howler monkeys in the morning. Would definitely recommend to friends.
Alan, 6-night trip

Magical place to stay

This hotel is a magical blend of forest, ocean, and accommodation. Highly recommend. The staff is professional and very helpful.

The staff was beyond helpful!! Extremely kind and accommodating. Everyone was exceptional but two people stood out: Shirley and Diego! I will definitely be back to this hidden gem of paradise!! We went with our whole family (12 people and 5 rooms) this resort gives you the best of both worlds.. walk in pool and amazing beach. The restaurant was amazing especially breakfast and as expected the coffee was delicious. I could go on and on. Great memories made and I can’t wait to go back!!
