“"Another Hotel"”

The staff tries to make the best for the guests. The room had a problem with the air conditioning and they couldn't solve it. The beach is not suitable for swimming and staying in the sand. Excellent restaurants and very good service. People from the staff very kind and polite.

“Love the staff”

Our stay at Doubletree was definitely a memorable one. Although the hotel is lacking in some areas i.e. beach, nightlife etc. the staff is incredible. They are warm and welcoming. We felt safe and had a great time. The location of the hotel is not the best. Yet it is accessible to the major tourist spots i.e. Manuel Antonio, Jaco beach etc. So book plenty of tours. There is only so much alcohol you can drink before you're completely bored. I'm not sure I would go back to Doubletree but I fell in love with Costa Rica and the ticos. Pura Vida Costa Rica!

Area recommendations

Try to book plenty of tours see the real Costa Rica and don't stay at the hotel. Costa Rica is a beautiful country go explore. My favorites where Manuel Antonio and La Fortuna. Definitely worth the drive.

“Bring boardgames.. and book tours!”

The menu did not vary much especially during breakfast time. My favorite night had to have been Costa Rican typico night where typical Costa Rican food was served. Service was great! Employees were friendly. I stayed in building #1... the room wasn't all that clean and we discovered a small lizard in our room. At least it wasn't a cockroach. Funny enough, it was comfortable. Pools were pretty good. Beach was volcanic and not the white sandiness I'm use to. Nightlife was pretty much dead... so if you're in the 20-30 range... bring lots of boardgames. There were a lot of kids... A LOT! We use the services of Odyssey Travel. Definite recommend!!!! Their employees were respectful and professional. Always on time and courteous... and cheap! They took us to the Manuel Antonio Natural Reserve Park, the Arenal Volcano, and ziplining (our absolute favorite).

Area recommendations

If you are looking for white sandy beaches.. try to book a hotel near Jaco Beach, Playa Hermosa, or the Manuel Antonio Natural Reserve Park. They are all relatively in the same proximity as the Doubletree.

“"No useable beach, will not be back."”

The beach was strewn with driftwood that wasn't cleaned every morning. The sand was volcanic rock, the water brown and black and when waves receded they pulled large rocks smashing against your ankles. The food was the same every day, not very good, the disco was empty every night.

Area recommendations

None.

Comment from the hotel's management

Thank you for writing about your experience at Doubletree Resort Puntarenas. We take all feedback seriously, and sincerely regret that we did not meet your expectations. The central pacific area where the resort is located is well known for its dark volcanic sand beaches. Costa Rica offers a wide variety of geographic landscapes which stand apart from other popular beach destinations like the Caribbean. Some customers choose the resort for touring nearby attractions and then re-charge energies at our facilities after an intense day of adventure. We are sorry you did not enjoy your visit to our resort at a quite time. Everyday we have different food themes at our main restaurant, plus we offer all our guests the opportunity to dine in three other restaurants (some require reservation). Our concierge desk personnel is available to assist with dining options. Once again thank you for providing your comments.

“Nice resort but poor customer service”

Overall the resort was very nice, especially for a family with children. The pools were beautiful and warm the the resort was well kept and clean. The food choices were limited to a buffet and a snack bar if you didn't stay for a minimum of three nights. Reservations at the other two restaurants were very hard to get. Customer service was not so good. We had quite a few small things come up that the staff was not too eager to rectify. For example, my friend's room was on the first floor facing the parking lot. Small children and car alarms don't mix during the middle of the night. After much complaining they offerend to switch her room. The safe and the TV in her room also had to be fixed/replaced. My room on the other hand was beautiful and had a great patio to look out on. It was after the first night though that I discovered the bed sheets my children had slept on were DIRTY! Although the sheets were changed promptly we also brought all of this to the attention of a manager and it took an hour of waiting for her to tell us the the supervisor who could do anything for us was not available. Not acceptable. Eventually we spoke to him and he promised us something for a future visit. What that something is I don't know. I guess we'll find out if we ever go back. With so many other beautiful places in Costa Rica, I don't know if we'll take him up on that.

Outdoors or beach

The beach here is not beautiful. Huge brown waves, black sand (almost dirt like), lots of sticks and stones on the beach. We went to look and put our toes in twice for a few minutes. Stay in the resort, the pools are great!

“Hmm”

This was my first time in Costa Rica.. Staff was GREAT... Beach was not what I expected the water was not blue at all!.. Rooms were very clean, shower was luke warm you would be lucky to get hot water.. Food at the restaurants were delicious.. As far as food from the buffet and snack bar it was mostly the same every day which you get bored of.. As far as tours a must do hotel charges 20 dollars more but if you go across the street very reasonable prices and very well worth it.

Area recommendations

Hot Springs tour alot of relaxation and get to see the volcanos Arenal.. Ziplining through 25 cables and 11 waterfalls was awesome!

“good value in Costa Rica”

Food at buffets really wonderful, enjoyed our stay tremendously. Rooms well maintained and clean. Very crowded Easter weekend but other wise fine. Only problem, day of checkout since we did not leave the property right at noon, they charged us $20 per person to use the pool! Never had that happen before at any resort in U.S. or abroad, thought it was a bit extreme. Concierge very helpful in planning day trips.

Comment from the hotel's management

Thank you for choosing Doubletree Puntarenas and for commenting about your stay in Costa Rica. We are happy to hear you were please with our dining options and our facilities. Because we are a full all-inclusive resort, we apply the extended stay charges when our guests wish to hang out a little longer on property. The fee entitles you to use all resort facilities as well as being served food and drinks at any of the restaurants until departure. This is typical at many all-inclusive resorts in the country. We appreciate your comments and hope you visit us in the future.

“Great Hotel in the boonies”

The Doubletree is a wonderful resort with great service, food, staff, and facilities. We have stayed there many times in the past and are always happy with the friendliness and courtesy of the staff. Great place to stay to travel from or just float around one of the swim-up bars. It is located in the boonies but is near a major highway so access is easy. Basic shopping is also nearby in Puntareanus, a very colorful Costa Rican town. Ask the front desk about feeding the monkeys at a local woman's home nearby!

Area recommendations

Feeding the monkeys was a thrill. Located within 10 minutes of the resort, a local woman and her family invite anyone to come by their home and feed the numberous cappuchin monkeys that she calls promptly at 0700 everyday. No money is asked for but nice to leave a tip. Wonderful friendly people in a truley gorgeous environment.

Traveler's tip

Best time to travel? Anytime although the dry season in jan-mar is busiest, Oct- Dec is great also. Temperatures remain the same yearlong but it does rain in the tropics.
