Whether you're sticking a toe in the water or just chilling out on the shoreline, Avellana Beach is the perfect place to spend time with the family. Why not bring a picnic and a rug and make a day out of it?

Avellana Beach is free to visit, so you can have a fantastic time in Guanacaste without taking out your wallet. When you're done wandering around this stretch of coastline, pay a visit to some of the area's other popular locations. Hacienda Pinilla Golf Course, Grande Beach and Casino Diria are our suggestions.

The property was gorgeous, nothing but jungle as far as you can see. The unit was equipped with top of the line everything. Best choice for a jungle adventure!

Unique “treehouse” experience. Amazing forest/mountains view. It was quite of a delight to stay in such of eco-friendly environment. Great food at the Hotel Taru restaurant. Excellent customer service. Kudos to the entire staff but specially to Carlos Guzman for going above and beyond. Thank you. Pura Vida!

Had a wonderful time but rooms are outdated and dirty. Grounds are beautiful! Smaller RIU resort. They are rebuilding so should be perfect in a few years.

Great for surf - make sure to stop at Lola’s . Good food and drinks .

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

There seems to be only one restaurant- Lola’s. The food was good and the view is great. The staff are also very friendly and attentive. Rent surfboards from Avellanas Surf School (we met the owner at Lola’s). The owner is very nice!
