10/10 Excellent

"Top location to stay at for views and peace while visiting Nosara."

JW Marriott Guanacaste Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"Ok, so after spending 8 days here we can give a very thorough review and comparison to the W that we also stayed at nearby for 3 nights. The staff was amazing!!! Beware!!! The road is ridiculous into the property!! It is a dirt road that has random animals, atv’ers, parked card and other fun surprises. Apparently they are working on a permanent paved road but this one is definitely a problem. It almost made you not want to leave the property. It was exactly 42 min each way to Tamarindo. The grounds were not kept to the jw standard. The gardens were dry and overgrown, the pool chairs had bird poop all over them, and the staff only cleans up the pool area at the end of the day. All the food and drink cups sit out all day. In addition, the elevator had mold all around the top rim, and the food was sub par. We did the all inclusive so we ate everywhere. The best restaurant was the Azul restaurant by the beach. The pool was huge. My kids had a blast. The ocean has full on waves and rocks, so it can be dangerous. There are no water sports like the W has. Also, the JW is in a dry area, there was little go no wildlife (monkeys, bugs, frogs, etc), a plus for me! The W is in a mangrove so its crazy buggy and filled with howler monkeys, lizards, etc. with all that being said the vibe at the JW was better. The W is built on a hillside and its a shlep everywhere and its not a hotel feel. We loved the W’s room (we had a suite with a jacuzzi outside) we would still choose the JW."

"We had an incredible 8-night stay here for our honeymoon, and it exceeded every expectation. My wife is pregnant, so we were looking for a peaceful, relaxing getaway, and this was the perfect place to unwind. From the moment we arrived, the hospitality was exceptional. We were welcomed with a handwritten note signed by members of the staff and a complimentary bottle of wine to celebrate our honeymoon. Halfway through our stay, they surprised us with a thoughtful baby gift, which was such a kind and meaningful touch that made us feel truly cared for. The atmosphere throughout the property was calm and relaxing, and the location was ideal with the beach just a short distance away. The beach shuttle was convenient and made getting back and forth effortless. Our room was exactly as pictured—beautiful, cozy, spotless, and very comfortable. Everything was well maintained, and we always looked forward to coming back after a day out. We also loved dining at Almar. Every meal was delicious, and the cocktails and mocktails were fantastic. Most of all, the staff made this stay unforgettable. Everyone we interacted with was genuinely kind, welcoming, and eager to make our experience special. We honestly have no complaints. This was the perfect honeymoon, and we would absolutely love to return in the future. Highly recommend!"

The Gilded Iguana Surf Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulous property and location. Staff were awesome, especially Francisco. Lots of restaurants and bars close by, if you want to try something outside the resort. Very safe and quiet area. A couple of things, one the roads are not all paved and the dirt ones are very rough. Two, great for families, but a few too many kids during our stay. Next time, we probably go adults only."

The mVillas with Exclusive Beach Club Access

10/10 Excellent

"So, I loved it so much I came back for another stay. I started my 3 week tour of Costa Rica here in this villa and at the end of my trip I adjusted my plans and made sure to return back to Tamarindo and stay a few more nights because I enjoyed the stay that much. We are already taking about returning next summer with more friends and family. The pass to the beachfront club is a great bonus for staying at this villa. They really do take care of so many little details that are appreciated like soap for laundry, beach towels, umbrellas, yoga mats and even a beach bag! This was my absolute favorite place we stayed in my 3 week trip."

The Coast Beachfront Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was extremely helpful throughout our stay. Luckily our villa happened to be ready a little early when we arrived. Breakfast was delivered promptly to our room at the time we requested. We were even able to get breakfast pre-packaged the night before one of our tours that had an early pickup. Being steps away from the beach was one of the best perks as well. The location isn’t too far from the central part of town, but a good distance away where it was nice and quiet during our stay — until nature sounds woke us up every morning, which wasn’t a bad thing."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in San Juanillo?

The best area to stay in San Juanillo is near the main beach, particularly around the intersection of Calle San Juanillo and the road leading to the beach.

This area is the heart of San Juanillo and offers convenient access to the village's primary attractions. It's a small, walkable cluster of local eateries and a few shops, all within a short stroll of the picturesque white and black sand beaches. The main fishing cooperative is also located here, providing a glimpse into local life.

For couples seeking a quiet and romantic getaway, staying close to the main beach is ideal. You'll have easy access to the stunning coastline, great for peaceful walks, swimming in the calm waters, or enjoying a sunset. The limited development here ensures a secluded experience, allowing for relaxation and connection.

Families will also find this central area appealing. With the beach just steps away, children can enjoy building sandcastles and playing in the gentle waves.
