Had a great time- I went with a group of 13 which worked in our favour because I would have been bored out of my skull if I wasnt. The resort is drab but it wasn't terrible. Only 1 bar was open while we were there and there are no day time activities offered. The non motarized sports was open... More

People make any experience and the people working for Puntarena, many, have been there for years. Arturo and Mayelin at the front desk are fantastic. If there is a problem, speak to one of them...it will be fixed asap. I have been back to this resort seven times and each time I am welcomed with open arms. Staff can not... More

I was very pleasantly surprised when I walked into this resort. My only comparison is Mar Del Sur, but really the lobby is very beautiful, my room was amazing; very clean and updated, and the staff were very professional and nice. So, the beds are cheap....... My bf jumped on his, and it broke. We joked about it for the... More

So all I can say, is i'm booking another trip and taking everyone. I miss it so much, including everyone at the 24 hour bar Steven, Jose, Jorge, and C-Lo If you get the opporituity to actually talk to them, they will tell you lots. Always leaving a tip at the beginning of every night, if you want amazing service... More

Hotel Puntarena was clean friendly and fun! Staff amazing and if you couldn't find something to eat you werent looking. Had the time of my life! More

The Ocean gets deep very fast, and the beaches are hard to walk on as they are sloped sharp. The place was clean, very friendly staff, and no reason to be disappointed. Try to ignore the rude french Canadians, as nothing will ever be good enough for them. Great place for a short 7 day getaway. Beautiful people! More

as posted in the title.... if you are going to complain about food, smells, cold water, noise, rudeness, etc... then I have no idea where you stayed because i just came back from an excellent trip over there... I met Linda the masseuse and she is great at what she does, we got along fine and she invited me on... More

I was at Gran Caribe Puntarena from Ap 9-16th. I paid $500 including taxes so made the best of it. The hotel was rated 3.5 stars but it was a 3 star in my opinion. I went with no expectations. I had a great time but also realized at the end of my trip that you get what you pay... More

I was there for 7 days and I was sick before my trip and the staff was always helpful and checking on me. Not in a "give me a tip " way.. Arturo was really nice. Especially. There were some harassing boys and he kept them away from the girls when they got too much. The staff by the bar... More
