"The Silvestre is a beautiful boutique hotel, perfectly located in Guiones, just across from the beach and within walking distance of shops, restaurants, and cute grocery stores. The front desk staff is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and eager to help. The rooftop lounge, coffee bar, and pool are a great place to sit back and relax. Definitely deserving of its Michelin rating! They even give you a goodbye gift of delicious local coffee. Angel, Israel, and Paul are a joy to interact with....

"Unsure what makes this an eco retreat aside from the fact they ask you to bring your own water bottle to refill with water they provide and there is no hot water for showers. The property has a lot of potential but it felt maybe slightly neglected. There was a lot of debris on the ground, the kitchen area was really dirty and the room had rusty racks and shower curtains that allowed water to spray out all over the floor. With that said, it is the cheapest option in the area (a fantastic...

Top Playa Cocal Hotel Reviews

Azul Hotel & Retreat

10/10 Excellent

"A very nice place with friendly and helpful staff. The road getting there is a little rough but manageable. We were there in the low season but the place was still upkept very nicely."

TreeTops

10/10 Excellent

"Very private very secluded area . Jack and Karen are awesome. We loved hanging out and talking with them beautiful views beautiful beaches!"

Cocobolo Beach Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We very much enjoyed our stay at Cocobolo. Easy access to the water, watched the monkeys play in the trees from our deck, and it was quiet and low key. They did not have breakfast on site but there are other options close by."

Romantic Nature Escape

Hotel Luna Azul

10/10 Excellent

Luxurious Dream 5 bedroom Villa on Costa Rican Coast with breathtaking views

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at Villa Bianca was what dreams are made of! We stayed for 2 weeks with our family of 5 and didn’t want to leave! The house was spotless when we arrived and just as beautiful as the listing described. The location was perfect for a secluded getaway but with the accessibility of villages close by! The pool was amazing and the outdoor area only added to the experience. The views and wildlife were incredible! Kitchen was fully stocked and air conditioning worked great! Udo was an incredible house host with great recommendations for beaches and restaurants. Very great and easy to communicate with. We cannot wait to come back and enjoy this beautiful house again! "

A rustic lodge surrounded by garden, nestled in a jungle setting - double Room 1

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great little lodge, near to local, beautiful beaches. AC, hot water and pool, and full outdoor kitchen access are welcome amenities. I had some trouble finding it, but that was more operator error. Gary responded quickly to my questions when lost. Must visit playa San Juanillo for sunset, and Playas Frijolar and Coco are beautiful with a great Tiki Bar."

Buddha Retreat Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff were lovely and inviting. Room was clean and comfortable. This hotel and restaurant combination is safe, friendly, comfortable, and relaxing. Beautiful beach is very close walk. "
