Top Malpais Hotel Reviews

Tango Mar Beachfront Boutique Hotel & Villas

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful beach and surroundings. Bring some water and drinks/snacks to have in the fridge."

Hotel Santa Teresa by the Beach

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay. The staff was lovely, welcoming and always welcoming. The pool was perfect a perfect spot to lounge and relax. The breakfast was tasty and the servers were very nice. Our room was very spacious and had plenty of room for my husband and I and our teenaged daughter. We enjoyed sitting out on the balcony at the end of the night. The hotel is in a great location in town and close to restaurants and a super market. I would highly recommend this hotel to others."

Ocio Villas Mal Pais

6/10 Okay

"Beautiful resort, HOWEVER, if you aren't an entomologist you might not like your stay here. The doors don't seal, the windows don't seal, the outdoor shower doesn't seal, and that results in every bug and small animal in your villa. That is unacceptable for a "4 star" resort. While it wasn't the end of the world for us, having a June bug fly in your hair while in bed can be very unnerving or the squawk of a lizard on the ceiling at 3am can be annoying. We're not talking about a little gecko either - a 12" long lizard in the room with us for four days. And don't leave the lights on before you head to dinner, the ceiling will be covered in bugs upon your return. The beautiful infinity pool had lots of small tiles missing. Four star resorts maintain their properties better than this. And there's no TV either. It's nice to watch a little something before bed. A TV was in the three other places we stayed while in CR. Four star resorts have TV's. The staff was great. Oh, and you can't mind steps either. Our villa was down 124 steps from the parking area. That means you're going up 124 steps whenever you leave....don't forget something! So much potential, however they fail in execution."
