I had researched our "family" vacation for well over a month. We went to Cancun last year and did the whole "resort" vacation, but this year we wanted something "different." My husband and I live and work in Afghanistan and our daughter's spring break vacation was soon to begin so planning had to be done. After reading MANY reviews on... More

The staff is amazing, the food is beyond perfection and the overall atmosphere is everything I needed in a vacation.

This is an awesome spot to stay in Guanacaste. I've been here 4 times, and I couldn't expect anything more. The room are really clean! The hotel itself is beautifully designed by the owners.

The restaurant was only open at choice hours due to the low season, but they were very accomodating. After mentioning that I... More

To best describe my stay at Cafe Playa Negra I would have to say, "I am so looking forward to seeing you alI again!" I cannot express how charming not only the hotel is but the town, locals, wildlife, the short walk down to the most breathtaking views of the ocean, eveything to the singing of all types of birds...
