Carara Hotels

"This is a very strange property. There are a lot of hotels, private condominiums sharing the same facilities but having separate gated access. The common grounds, however, aren’t being looked after so well. The Selvamar section we stayed in was okay, but a bit tired now. Room was much smaller than anywhere else we stayed in Costa Rica, but it was comfortable. Breakfast was decent, but the restaurant by the main pool where we had a dinner wasn’t the best and not worth the money they charge. Two pools are kids friendly and they are of pretty decent size, but not very deep. Some other activities, like mini golf, are charged separately. There is a new high-rise apartment building buying built right by the main pool area & beach, which will look awful. I wouldn’t stay here again, because it doesn’t provide the Costa Rica experience I like, it’s more like something taken out of Benidorm, but I do understand why some might be very keen on it."

"Not even water in the honey moon room, no VIP bracelet available"

"Grounds and room very clean staff was nice"

"Hotel is very old and in need of serious maintenance. Front desk made us wait for a room sweep before we could depart. They are obsessed about people stealing their ragged towels ! "

"Everything was good. We enjoyed being there and we can't wait to go again."

"The best Hotel near San Jose! Great for family gate away! "

"We enjoyed the pool and the access to the beach!"

"Muy bueno"

"Clean room!!! Cleaning staff made sure to clean all areas without touching our personal items. Great security. FYI I Didn’t really like the Mountain View of the hotel. Walking distance to downtown area and beach. Also store/liquor store next to hotel. "
