I stayed at the Hotel with 8 other friends and the only thing that's worth it, it's that it is on beachfront. The rooms are outdated, they smells like mold and there is no cleaning service. The ceilings have holes all over and water dripping out of them. The pool doesn't work with a pump so the water was hot.... More

A perfect setting for a hotel. Nice room, clean sheets, towels, etc. Loved the pool. Just a few minutes from Jaco—which is a good thing. Cheapest place for laundry in Costa Rica—a tip for the maid. I had no problem with any hotel in Costa Rica regarding reservations and prices. Did it all in advance, online, and paid. No confusion... More

This place was beautiful and perfectly located! Great service and very friendly. Anyone going to Costa Rica to surf, this is a great place to stay! There is a killer beach break right out front! More

We had the best time in costa rica. We went for A week on new years and had plans to travel all over. Once we got to the hotel we ended up spending our entire trip there. The staff was great. The pool was incredible for us and the kids, basically the pool was located on the beach. Oh and... More

My friend and I were traveling and had a reservation made online with this hotel for New Years Eve. We received an email telling us that our reservation was made. When we arrived, we were told that our reservation was never placed. Since it was New Years Eve, getting another reservation on incredibly short notice was going to be hard.... More

We stayed in this hotel during Spring Break. We do not recommend Beach House at Hermosa Beach. My teenage daughter got a severe ear infection from their pool water. The room was missing towels, the fan was broken, the A/C did not work properly, the tv remote as missing, and others. More

My boyfriend and I decided to stay here because it seemed like the cheapest option with the most offered in the room. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The pool was perfect for relaxing and getting some sun. All rooms came with a sink, refrigerator, freezer, microwave, cups, plates, and silverware. Each room had private bathrooms with hot water!...

The hotel was on the beach with an excellent view of world class surfers.( our surf teacher was a world champ). We were the only ones staying during the rainy season. The staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. We had... More

This hotel is right on Playa Hermosa, which is a beautiful dark-sand beach that is great for surfers. Caution-not a beach for beginner surfers.... Nice rooms. Mine were equipped with refrigerator, Air Conditioning, coffee maker, television, hot water, electronic lock box etc... I stayed in a few different rooms and the management upgraded us when the AC wasn't working very... More
