Very run down.
Very run down. We went passed the local prison 2 roads away from place we had originally booked. No trees,no green, just run down building with barb wires and high gates, corrugated iron....not nice, avoid.

While the hotel and staff were lovely and helpful the common verandah didn't allow for much privacy. The hotel was also at least 5kms from the rest of the town with no shops or restaurants nearby, so a little isolated. But the beach just across the road was a bonus.FrancesAustralia - 8.0Scored 8.0

Plenty of restaurants, activities to explore, etc. For me, It totally depends on your hotel. I’ve stayed in Puntarenas many times, but my trip this week to Hotel Puntarenas Beach was, sadly, my worst hotel experience in Puntarenas.NormanCosta Rica - 8.0Scored 8.0

Nice city, you feel quiet safe, only at the beach and i the city a lot of agressiv beggers and seems like the police dont care, told they are not locals, but from the countries around Costa Rica, for the rest its a great place, easy to drive around in the region and see everything in max 3 hours drive away, locals drive nice, even the trucks.So will go back again

Puntarenas is only worth the visit if you're gonna take the ferry boat to the islands next to it. The beaches are not great, full of trash, plastic , i guess because of the location and the currents? Not a lot to see or do. Not impressed.SilviaUnited States - 10Scored 10
Friendly town with lots of friendly people.
Friendly town with lots of friendly people. Great spot to visit the smaller islands and their virgin beaches. Please visit the light house area and Isla Cocos restaurant. The fresh seafood is excellent and the staff wonderful.

- From € 83.63 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very goodRated very good· 883 reviewsIt is a beautiful little hotel, the lounge area is a perfect garden paradise with multiple seating areas and a bar. The people there are so nice and accommodating. The owner really cares and it shows... everyone there really loves it there. They even maintain the beach across the street and keep it clean and free of debris. They utilize solar panels for electric. They serve delicious meals at the restaurant, beautifully prepared, and complimentary full breakfast. It is only an hour and a half away from the airport.
Ruth MarieUnited States - 9.5Scored 9.5ExceptionalRated exceptional· 73 reviewsThe location was a bit difficult to find, as we had to drive on a street that didn't look like a street and was not marked. The photo from the listing helped us to identify the property. The house was light and airy and nicely furnished. The swimming pool was just right after a day of traveling. Large backyard with furniture and grill. Close to the beach.Mary JoUnited States
- From € 36.28 per night7.3Scored 7.3GoodRated good· 783 reviewsThe property has all the essentials of a hotel without the price of a hotel. The place is within walking distance from the beach. We booked a tour within the property to go to Isla Tortuga, which was very good value for the price. The staff from Puntarenas Bed & Coffee are very customer oriented, helpful and friendly!
RobertoFrance - From € 83.63 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very goodRated very good· 883 reviewsThe staff was lovely and the room had a decent size. A big plus is for the beach area that is arranged for the hotel clients across the street. We watched a lovely sunrise there. The pool is lovely but smaller than it looks and is right next to the street so there will always be some noise.

He prepare awesome cocktails and gives you a great time at the Aldea Pura Vida. The food was tasty, the rooms were clean and the location is - well, the pacific ocean is across the street, so - perfect.
NataschaGermany - From € 72.86 per night8.5Scored 8.5Very goodRated very good· 550 reviewsEverything was so clean, it was unbelievable, the room, the pool, the common areas, all clean. The staff was friendly and extremely helpful. I generally stay at private locations over hotels, but this place was perfect. I definitely plan on staying there again.
JohnCosta Rica - 9.8Scored 9.8ExceptionalRated exceptional· 28 reviewsWe loved our stay at D'Palm Villas! We felt really comfortable at this stunning property. It was perfect for our two young kids to run around and play. With the beach being so close by I would highly recommend anyone to stay here!! Thanks for having us.KrzysztofCanada

The location was minutes to the beach and the hosts could not have been more helpful and supportive going so far as to drop me off for my bus. Highly recommended!!!
cesarUnited States - From € 117.33 per night7.5Scored 7.5GoodRated good· 672 reviewsthe property itself is a false advertisement. the pictures from booking has nothing to do with the real hotel.
