We stayed at the Las Brisas Resort for a week and we couldn’t be more pleased with our experience. After having spent a good amount of time in Costa Rica, this was by far the best hotel and services experience we had. We also talked to other people who stayed in hotels close by and hearing their experiences, we feel even more confident in recommending this place.
First of all, the area is quiet and there is none of the ongoing party noise you will from the hotels by the beaches of Jaco proper. The hotel is situated 10 minutes from Playa Hermosa in a little oasis of peace (this beach is perfect for surfers but also for watching amazing waves and spectacular sunsets.) There are all kinds of beaches perfectly suitable for swimming and relaxing, within close proximity.
The hotel has on its premises all the desired amenities for a confortable stay, including two pools- very clean and well maintained. The rooms have ample space, good beds and great bathrooms with ample shower space as well as coffee maker, fridge and some of the rooms are equipped with microwave and a kitchen sink. The property premises have beautiful plants, flowers and trees and we enjoyed the visits of a few monkeys and a variety of birds, including toucans All the staff was very responsive and kind. The breakfasts are ample and delicious portions. We needed laundry done and this is also an available service. There is a cool bar right by the pools where you can serve delicious cocktails and refreshments. We enjoyed lunches and dinners as well in the restaurant and we were pleased with the quality, freshness and quantity of the meals. Beach towels are provided as well as information and support for tours in the area- there is plenty to do: adventure parks near by and a series of unique activities like horseback riding, canopy, coffee and chocolate tours and a lot of what amazing Costa Rica has to offer. There is a nice little food and essentials store literally minutes from the hotel. We will definitely choose this hotel again for our next trip!

For our first ever visit to Costa Rica, our experience at Las Brisas Resort and Villas was exceptional.
The property is beautifully nestled in a quiet spot away from other hotels and the service was outstanding. Everyone went out of their way to ensure that we were comfortable and well taken care of . . . From the spacious living space to the comfortable bed to personal breakfasts every morning to valuable advise on sightseeing and other activities in the area, and so much more!
The owners were so cordial and friendly; they really extended a personal level of hospitality that we have never experienced before. We celebrated our 39th wedding anniversary while there and they went out of the way to ensure that it was a memorable one.
When our week had come to an end we secretly wished we could stay a few more days. We did not want it to end.
The main property was undergoing renovations while we were there so those villas were not occupied. It might have been nice to have more people around but our days were spent off property enjoying the beauty of Costa Rica and its culture anyway.

Originally had our stay booked for 3 nights and we ended up extending it twice for a total of 8 nights! We just didn't want to leave. From check in to check out the place was amazing. Breakfast every morning was absolutely fantastic and I just can not say enough nice things about the staff. Diana and Mikey (the managers) were welcoming and went above and beyond with making us feel right at home and like family. They were extremely helpful with guidance both at the property and with advice when we went either into town or to the beach. Just absolutely wonderful. Tabitha, Josie, William and the rest of the daily crew were over the top as well with service and so so friendly! We will be back again and again! While we loved the quaintness of the small property, the staff really knocked it out of the ball park for us! Can't wait to visit again and see all the amazing things they have planned!

Stay at Las Brisas and you will have the most tranquil, relaxing vacation of your life! My boyfriend and I booked our stay through their website and enjoyed selecting from the beautiful variety of poolside suites. Breakfast is included during your stay and the food is absolutely delicious! They have a wider menu so you can order additional food if you please for lunch, dinner or a snack. The drinks are great, too! The bar is right next to the pool. The staff and owner were so accommodating. Jaco is a small beach town and Las Brisas feels like an oasis. Our room was spacious and comfortable. We can't wait to return and stay at Las Brisas again!

We loved our time here - the breakfast was the best we had in our entire time in the country. Fresh and delicious. And we enjoyed the food so much we ate dinner there every night and full enjoyed our conversations with the owners and the bartender Oscar. He was so kind and always provided very excellent customer service!!
The location is perfect - Playa Hermosa is beautiful area with so much to do and we took all the recommendations from the staff at the hotel for things to do and were never disappointed.
Thank you for an amazing time - we will be back!!

I've just spent 4 days here and couldn't be happier. They include a wonderful breakfast and I felt I had my own bartender and cook at my disposal. They'll do anything they can to help you. As an example I was having trouble with the internet and they placed an internet link right outside my door.

We found the staff to be very friendly, the food to be excellent, and the whole place very clean and well kept (thanks Troy!). A special hello to Michelle, Tabitha, Yvette, and the whole staff who made us feel very comfortable. The downside... very hard mattresses.

I am SO glad I did not book in Jaco. We drove down the main drag on our way in, and it was so depressing and uninviting. Driving 4K down the road to this place was a relief. On a quiet little road running up from a wild beach, it is a clean little oasis with a sparkling pool and cheery rooms Breakfast is good, and the managers are friendly. A good value! Went up the road TWICE for sushi so never had to go into Jaco again.

We rented Villa Tucan for five people. Lovely house, very comfortable, well equiped kitchen. Lovely terrace on the roof top where we enjoyed barbecueing (bring your own charcoil). The place has nice gardens and clean pool. Breakfast is pretty good too. We highly recommed this hotel.

If you haven't considered Costa Rica, it's a very friendly country. We have some business in the country. It led us to Jaco and Playa Hermosa. The Las Brisas Villas and Hotel is off the beach and away from the noise. Very reasonable accommodation and good food. Hosts are very accommodating. English and Spanish spoke, ex Pat owners are very helpful.
