We live in San Jose and anytime we have guests we have brought them to Canciones del Mar. At least 8 visits in 3 years. I am afraid that it is no longer the quaint little hotel we had come to love, especially after our last two visits. Most recently, there was a bachelorette party Friday night with loud music... more

The have a teenager working the front desk which gives horrible customer service, the rooms are old, the ac barely works, the towels are old and super stiff, and the breakfast is limited and not very good at all! There is a shdy alley you have to walk through to get to town, so you end up driving anyway! This... more

We stayed at the Canciones del Mar for 6 nights in May 2009, and had a great experience. The hotel is in a good location - right on the beach and a few minutes walk from the main drag in Jaco. We stayed in two rooms: #9 and #15 - both of which were two-room suites. Each had two baths,... more

I have stayed at Canciones del Mar three to four times in the past 4 years. I love this place! It is not the pampered, luxury in seclusion rather it is a safe, fun place right on the beach. I love being able to stash your stuff and run right to the beach, hanout in the tree house, or lay... more

5 years ago this place was probably wonderful...but time is showing. Jaco is not the safe little get-away that is described. The "rustic lane" that leads from the hotel to town is a dank alley that I would not recommend walking at night. The beachfront is rocky and full of trash. There was a homeless man sitting on the hotel... more

Ok, heres what you want to know: The hotel is on the beach, which is beautiful. Breakfast included-yummy. Nightlife starts late, but is worth it. As far as crime goes, just keep your eyes open and dont let people sweet talk you to anything. Our room was big and clean, with kitchen and huge balcony. Jaco was really a pit-stop.... more

Las Canciones Del Mar is a great hotel right on the beach in Jacó. It is about 100 metersyards from the street and it gets you just far away enough from all the other tourists to make you feel like you are at your own beach. The hotel staff was very nice and courteous. The guy at the front desk... more

Jan 21 - Jan 25 2008 Let me start off by saying that we really enjoyed our stay in Jaco. We plan on coming back in July, but due to how our situation was handled at Canciones Del Mar, we will probably be staying somewhere else. At least until ALL the construction is done and all the bugs are worked... more

Great Location. Hotel right on the beach and located near the strip of shops and restraunts, so you can walk there. A little hard to find initially (at the end of Calle Bri Bri but street signs are very hard to see or find in Costa Rica) Very helpful staff. They will make arrangement for many activities or give you... more

Construction of the 10-room addition should be complete by end of December, so there should be no more of the daytime noise. We stayed in #9, the two-bedroom, two-bath unit. It is very spacious with a long second floor balcony with several tables and chairs that overlook the pool area. There is also a complete kitchen and living room. The... more
