"Stayed in the Estrella room, it was beyond beautiful. Long scenic walk to the room, kitchenette, and filtered water in the full sized fridge. Staff was very kind and helpful, since the hotel was 6 hours from SJO we had to leave at 4 am and to our surprise there was a staff member there to assist with checkout. There are no key drop-boxes, so I was worried about how we were going to return it. Overall an amazing stay."

"Always my go to place to stay if it’s available. Wonderful staff, food and location! I love that I can never leave the resort but still have an amazing time after it rained the entire time my previous visit. And even better to come back to after a day out playing in the area and relaxing on the beach for sunset while enjoying one of their many cocktails. It is also reassuring to see the same people working there year after year."

"We had a great stay at Tango Mar. The owner always greeted us each day to see how we were or how our day was. The staff were so friendly and helpful, and the food was delicious! I took advantage of the spa and had an incredible massage. Gorgeous views of the ocean right out your window and the multiple pools to cool off in with the heat. Swimming beaches were a short drive away if you wanted to swim in the ocean."

10/10 Excellent
"We had an amazing 5 night stay at Sea Wing. It was in a perfect location, beachfront, on the main street but far enough away no noise other than the waves crashing nearby.The property is well maintained and we felt very secure, night and day. The house staff were friendly and available for assistance, and helped to coordinate groceries, excursionw, and a private chef for breakfast/lunch which was also fantastic and a great way to really unwind and relax while enjoying the house.We would absolutely stay again, and it has definitely spoiled our family and expectations for any future VRBO stay!"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Carmen?
The best areas to stay in Carmen are Santa Teresa and Mal País, two distinct yet interconnected communities on the Nicoya Peninsula.Santa Teresa is the more developed of the two, known for its long, sandy beaches like Playa Santa Teresa, which are popular for surfing. The main road, Route 624, runs parallel to the coast and is lined with a variety of restaurants, cafes, and boutiques. It offers a lively option with easy access to amenities and activities. This area is great for couples looking for a mix of relaxation and opportunities for dining and evening strolls.Mal País, located just south of Santa Teresa, offers a more secluded experience. It's characterized by a rockier coastline, tide pools, and lush jungle bordering the beaches. The pace here is generally slower, with fewer commercial establishments. It's ideal for nature-focused travelers or couples seeking a tranquil retreat, with properties often located into the hillside offering ocean views and a sense of privacy.
