We spent one night at Hotel Domilocos in route to Playa Matapalo. We felt it was a great deal for the price. Our room was quiet and comfortable with air conditioning. We arrived around 10pm and restaurant was closing but staff was very cordial and stayed to serve us a cerveza which we greatly appreciated after our long trip from... More

This is a great place to stay while in Dominical. Can't get closer to the best surf spot and the staff is very helpful. Restaurant is great for groups and dinners were terrific. I would stay here again.

I've traveled all over the world and I've never experienced beds as bad as this hotel had. We're talking sink in the middle, squeaky, can't walk in the morning beds. worst beds ever. Don't stay here unless you are desperate or too cheap to care about being able to walk the next day.

A very good location close to the beach, restaurants, and surf rental. The room was basic but very convenient and defintely worth it given the price. The breakfast delicious and staff very nice. Maybe lacking a bit of air and space in the room but it was OK for 4 nights. Anyway in Dominical, you stay on your surf board,... More

We arrived in Dominical for what we thought was going to be for 5 nights to do some scuba diving. The pictures on reviews reflect this hotel when it was new. Not sure what has happened here but it has become dilapidated and undesirable. We knew that Dominical was a small surf town but we just could not bring ourselves... More

It was a bit dark in the room as one of the lights was out over the sink area. AC worked fine once I figured out how to work the controls, too many buttons! There was breakfast with the rate which is always nice but again pretty basic, mostly because of low season and low number of guests. But for... More

We chose Hotel Domilocos because the signs in town offered incredibly inexpensive rooms. They were somewhat higher when we negotiated at the desk, but by skipping the a/c (not necessary in October) we kept the price to a minimum. The hot tub wasn't operational in the off season, but the hotel grounds are well kept and rooms are clean. The... More

We enjoyed a 3 night stay at this fine hotel. Room was clean, had cold AC, and plenty of hot water. We needed reliable wifi for some online school that needed to be completed during our stay. We were pleased to find high speed wifi access in the room. Many hotels claim to have wifi, but often the service is... More

This was a fun place to stay. The town of Dominical is tiny, but the reputation of the hotel is large. And everyone who has stayed there knows the owner, Michael. From his first firm handshake you know this is a well run business. The rooms are basic, but we didn't come to sit inside. The beach is a 5... More
