El Achiote Vacations from $788

The property was nice for a large family to stay. It fit our entire family which was nice but it’s not shiny new. Road noise at night is obnoxious but we were near the front. The photos make it look perfect but it’s not. The area around is kinda sketchy but it is Jaco Beach. The hotel is walking distance to the beach and the main strip. The staff was the best part of the property. They were super friendly and the activities director was amazing. I would stay at this property again given the cost we paid vs other name brand hotels / properties. Overall I enjoyed our stay but it was because of the people that worked there.

The place was great we loved everything about it

Everyone was very friendly. However, the pool was very dirty full of debris leaves trees. The one pool was shut down. The rooms were not overly clean showers were a bit grumpy I was a bit disappointing for the cost per night

The Riu Palace was awesome. We had a great stay, the staff were friendly and helped in any way. The hotel was kept immaculate the grounds lush even thou it was the dry season. All the restaurants the food was delicious. Definitely will be going back.

This resort was amazing. The hotel staff were so friendly, we loved all of the pools, loved the spa and restaurants. The view of the volcano was amazing from our room. We celebrated our 25th anniversary here and it could not have been better. They upgraded our room and gave us a bottle of wine. The massage I had here was the best I’ve ever had. I would definitely stay here again!
