We chose this resort because it was only a 1/2 hour from the airport and we wanted to spend the night before we traveled else where. It has an amazing view. That and the proximity to the airport are the only reasons to go. Don't get stuck there without a car - you aren't walking distance to anything except the... More

The location of the hotel is great. The property has beautiful views and is considered beachfront property. I enjoyed the fact that we were at Ocotal beach and near Playa de Coco - which is only a $6 cab fare away. However, the property needs major up keep and renovations. Many local people that we came across also stated that... More

Stayed here Jan 2012 - we were in the Gunacaste area looking for a beachfront hotel which was to suit our budget of upto $150 usd/ night. We arrived here without a reservation and they said the room was $135 per night but said they would discount this by 25% to around $100usd per night including breakfast & taxes which... More

We just got back from spending an all-inclusive week at the Ocotal Resort, and it was the most relaxing vacation! The hotel is a bit old, and could use some fresh paint etc., but the service, great food and most of all the location more than make up for all that. It has a fantastic views, especially from the 400... More

This hotel was fantastic, it had beautiful views of the ocean and the staff was really friendly. We had an all-inclusive rate so all of our drinks and food were included the whole time we were there. The rates were reasonable and pretty much in line with other hotels in the area. There are plenty of activities to do around... More

We spent a week in Costa Rica and had a great time at Ocotal Beach Resort going horse back riding and snorkeling with some time in between on the beach. The views are amazing and the rooms are good. The hot tubs were not working on this visit but I've been there when they are and it's a wonderful experience... More

The views are amazing! The sunset mixed with the water, mountains, and trees is breath taking. That is the best part of this hotel. It is NOT a 4 star resort at all. The staff at the front desk are nice, they promise you things that do not hapen. At check in, we were lucky to get our room right... More

This incredible trip to Costa Rica started on the shore in front of the beautiful waters of the Pacific ocean in a place called Ocotal Beach Resort in Guanacaste. Upon arrival we were greeted in a friendly manner by the hotel manager and the friendly reception staff. We were excited to be on our first Costa Rican vacation to be... More
