We arrived for a 5 day stay and would have loved it but for a few Inadequacies. You don't want to leave as you are 3/4 hr. down a bumpy jarring washboard road. Who wants to go over that if you don't have to. We decided we had to because of the poor service in the restaurant. When we arrived... More

the best thing: there were only 2 or 3 other groups staying so it was like a private resort. But that also meant half the menu wasn't available. The dinner food is pretty typical of costa rica, bland and minimal. on the other hand, the included breakfast was one of the best we had during our trip. The beach is... More

Spent two weeks here. About 45 minutes from nearest real town with bank and grocery. Grounds are lovely. If you don't have a car - don't worry. Taxi to nearby great beaches very reasonable. Only one restaurant at the hotel, but the food is good. Recommend getting your own groceries for breakfast/lunch, and then dinner at the hotel. Be sure... More

We spent 2 days at the hotel and decided to stay at the beaches as most as we could. The food is terrible, the rooms are dirty and the facilities are the worst. Its a shame, because there are gorrgeous beaches around. This is suppose to be a 4 stars hotel, hahaha, it is 1star top. More

First I want people to realize that Ecoplaya is not a 5 star resort but I enjoyed it more than any vacation I've ever had! The landscape is beautiful and extremely well maintained. We received excellent service, the employees were all very friendly, prompt and treated us in a first class manner. Our rooms were clean and room service did... More

This was the worst place we ever stayed - thankfully for only one night, The hotel is located in a very remote location, close to the border to Nicaragua with virtually NOTHING around. The hotel had virtually no guests - the rooms were fairly clean, but without well functioning shower, coffee-maker or fridge. The surroundings looked beautiful, but the hotel... More

The staff at Eco Playa are very friendly and helpful. The resort is on a beautiful beach, and other spectacular beaches are very close by. Our guide to Nicaragua, Humberto, was an absolute joy. His friendly demeanor is infectious. A great place to relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery and warm, friendly people. Highly recommended. More
