It was what we expected. A pretty downtrodden area. So not surprised, but we had intended to stay for 6 days and moved out after 2.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

Puntarenas isn’t somewhere I’d come back to. We were only here to catch the ferry bright and early to head to Santa Teresa

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveler

I thoroughly enjoyed Puntarenas! Nice people, good food, positive vibe.

1/5 - Terrible

Just a pass by place

3/5 - Okay

I don’t recommend Puntarenas, unless you have specific business there. Not a tourist area
