Top Cartagena Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Palace Costa Rica - All Inclusive

6/10 Okay

"Very friendly staff and a beautiful location. The female staff in the resort were particularly friendly. A special shout out to Marta who was amazing. I traveled with a group of 9 people. Five out of 9 people got violently sick during our stay. Holding procedures for the food are not up to par. Cold food was held well above temperature and hot foods well below. I am a chef and no a thing or two about food safety. Be prepared with some immodiom and some Pepto bismal. We originally thought the palace was an adults only which it is not. Not a huge deal, but for my wife and I we enjoy the peace of a child free environment. It's definitely worth checking out but the amount of food bourne illness we seen really spoiled the trip. That being said the staff was amazing and really made us feel at home."

Hotel Riu Guanacaste - All Inclusive

8/10 Good

"Upon arriving after a red eye flight, we didn’t have a room. I had emailed and called the front desk prior to be sure my check in was held for the day before so that we were able to get into the room very early in the morning(8 am). As in, I explicitly paid for the rooms a day before arriving and then spoke directly to them so they were aware of when we would be there. First, front desk couldn’t even find my reservation, then nonchalantly said they gave them away. Long story short, we couldn’t get into the rooms until 1pm and by the time they put our luggage away, there was no food available except for a few pieces of fruit and small snack items in one of the lounges. We got no instructions about the layout of the hotel and where to go for anything and so we just wandered around a bit. That was all disappointing. Once in the rooms, and deciding to figure out the resort by talking to other patrons and staff- everything was very good! Pools are open 24 hours, which is amazing to go for a late night dip before bed. The buffet is set 3x a day and they mix up the items enough to stay interesting. Steakhouse is reservation only through their app-more people had issues with that but we never went. The sushi/japanese restaurant is also buffet style and absolutely delicious. Short walk to the beach, which is public- and you will be deluged constantly by people selling the usual items but they are all friendly enough. No servers come by at the pools or stage areas. Would go again."

Occidental Papagayo - Adults Only - All inclusive

8/10 Good

"Resort was clean and property was well maintained. Staff were friendly and helpful. Great views and a nice beach with shade and a breeze for the hot afternoons. Food was good, but options were a bit limited. Lots of hills and stairs to walk around the property, but there was a readily available shuttle if you didn't want to walk. Overall a nice resort."

Wyndham Tamarindo

2/10 Terrible

"exerything especially the cleanliness was perfect for the stay except the last couple hours when someone stoled my guests wallet containing credit cards and ID. Within in one hour of checkout the thief was making three different location purchases in Santa Cruz, one hour away from Tamirado, totaling over $250, The bank stopped and deacatived cards, insurance protection will possiblly cover purchase loss. the cash $200 and Costa Rica ID will not be recovered. The only person that we know was the coffee/bar counter lady who arrived 10:55 to account for bar consumption. A great stay was tarnished by the resulting loss. ALAN HUDSON"

Hilton Garden Inn Guanacaste Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was extremely helpful and pleasant. The hotel is a perfect launching point for a Costa Rican vacation and the pool area and restaurant are terrific. For in and great food and drink choices and options and very fair pricing. The property is extremely clean and the rooms are spotless with modern updates."

CC Beach Front Papagayo All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"This resort was a pleasant surprise. My husband selected the hotel & I was not excited about having one restaurant on the property. All I can say is WOW!! The menu changed every evening (Italian, Caribbean, Mexican) , the protein was prepared fresh upon request. Typically you had the choice of beef, chicken, fresh fish or pork. The breakfast had an omelet chef, fantastic fruit/pastries & AMAZING coffee. The hotel was a small boutique hotel. The pools were well maintained, staff was constantly asking if there was anything they could do, making sure the grounds were spotless. The concierge arranged a private fishing charter that picked us up right on the beach in front of the resort. The beach was soft sand & waters calm enough to hang out in. We'd definitely come back."
