The Poseidon in Jaco was sweet! Very cool. Awesome staff. My Spanish is poor and everyone was very helpful and patient with me (at the hotel and in CR in general). Seemed like everyone at the hotel spoke English too. I took a surfing lesson, and ATV tour arranged through the hotel (Fernando) and I recommend both. Went swimming at... more

This place might be a little pricey but the cleanliness and service more than make up for it. It is very close to shops and lots of restaurants. The food at the restaurant downstairs needs a little work but the waitresses and the bartender are wonderful. The posiedon has air conditioning and our room even had a little balcony over... more

We stayed at the Poseidon Hotel for three nights but we were a bit disappointed because considering the price that we paid for we expected more. The staffs were friendly and rooms were very clean but though the room has a patio, there was no view. The drain in the shower was not good and the TV remote didn't work... more

My husband and I stayed at Hotel Poseidon from May 12 to May 18, 2008, and we were extremely satisfied with our experience there. Our room was very clean and ALL those working at the reception were extremely nice and helpful. They recommended activities and booked them for us, and they explained how to get to certain places to which... more

My husband and I had a great stay at this hotel! Everyone was so very nice and friendly. Bolivar at the front desk was very helpful and set up a bunch of activities for us. The sports bar upstairs was also a great place to hang out. We also loved the food in the restaurant! We would stay here again.... more

On a lengthy trip to Costa Rica we decided to see Jaco. Fortunately it was only for two days. The city is filled with drugs and prostitutes in plain sight at all hours of the day. Everytime we left the hotel we were offered drugs from someone on the street. The Posiedon itself was not as advertised. The owners claim... more

Definitely THE place to stay in Jaco (if you want to stay in Jaco, that is). Hotel has friendly staff that are able to assist you with all kinds of daytrips and activities. The pool, although small for lap swimming, is a welcome amenity in the heat and humidity of the coast. This hotel has a restaurant on the premises... more

I stayed at Hotel Poseidon the first week of March. This was actually my second time staying there. The first trip I did a surf camp package with Third World Surf, which was a blast. This time I decided I would surf and venture out on my own. Even though I didnt do a package, Third World was great with... more

The Hotel Poseiden sit's along a side street in Downtown Jaco steps from just about everything you would need. Upon arriving it looked pleasant enough, one of those open air Lobbies. Then the problems began. The guy behind the desk insisted on helping me to my room with my bags. After a half an hour, I realized my main carryon... more
