“Highly Recommended”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 18, 2012

Just returned from a week at beautiful Jaco Beach and staying at the Daystar Diamante. The property was fantastic and exceeded our expectations. A couple of things really stood out for us about it. Firstly, the location was exceptional. It is located right in the middle of town so you have quick and easy access to all of the various restaurants and nightlife, this was so convenient. Secondly, had to be the service from the staff at the condo. Everyone from the cleaning staff to the front desk went out of their way to make sure we had an awesome time. Among the most notable was the actual Manager named Lisle, who gave us tons of helpful advice and went well above and beyond to help us with some pretty cool daytrips and excursions, which proved to make this one of the most interesting adventures we have ever been on. We would definitely recommend these condos to everyone, as it was key to us having such a great vacation.

Room Tip: I liked the higher rooms, the view is beautiful.

“A truly amazing experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 13, 2012 via mobile

Our stay with you was the best experience I have had in the 16 years I've been coming to Costa Rica. Our rooms were very clean and beautifully decorated. The beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms were spotless. The staff was professional and very attentive to our needs. Sharing a bottle of wine on the beach by the edge ocean under starlit skies is a memory that dreams are made of.

I will definitely be back.

“Good experience”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 27, 2012

You can book these through several sources: Daystar themselves, VRBO, or through Best In Jaco. Management was accommodating when we had problems. We stayed in 2 bedroom 3 bath unit, 402N. You must clean up well after cooking. Ants will appear regardless. Not the fault of management, it is the nature of the area. Spray the countertops and oven area with Windex to discourage the extra guests. Take them up on the offer to grocery shop in advance. You won't regret it! You'll need to run AC continuously to keep musty smell down, again it is the price you pay for staying in an extremely humid area! Washer and dryer was an unexpected plus. Management was very helpful with booking transportation and Jaco area events and excursions. Restaurants and nightlife only a short walk away. Read up on Jaco area in Trip Advisor for good advice on restaurants and activities. Unit is accurately shown in pictures, but could benefit from minor maintenance (paint job). Electronic safe available to secure valuables. Wifi worked well. Security so-so. Beach is not private as description may imply. Next to muddy river, so be ready to see surf turn brown after a heavy rain. Based on what other properties we saw, this appeared to be the nicest in the Jaco downtown area.

Great experience at this beautiful resort. The management went above and beyond. Lisle was more than accomodating while setting up all our daily activities, restaurant reservations and nightlife experiences.

“Amazing place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 18, 2012

My friends and I went to Jaco for a 5 night stay and the hotel was amazing. 4 bedroom and 4.5 baths with 3 balconies with amazing ocean front views, you can not ask for more! Property manager goes beyond normal job to take care of his guests to make sure we get the best experience possible. Highly recommended!
