My Absolute Favorite Hotels in Costa Rica!



Over the last 5 days I have shared with you my favorite destinations in Costa Rica.

Now I would like to share with you MY FAVORITE HOTELS in each of the 5 destinations.


Destination #1: Tamarindo

JW Marriott Guanacaste Resort & Spa

Visit the JW Marriott Guanacaste Resort & Spa in Hacienda Pinilla for a dream Costa Rican vacation. This resort offers a variety of plush amenities, such as an oceanfront location, a spa, amazing rooms, golf and more.

Although not right in Tamarindo this JW Marriot is an amazing resort that is perfectly secluded yet close to Tamarindo. Enjoy miles of secluded beaches and a swimming pool that is the largest I have even been in!


Destination #2: Monteverde

Monteverde Lodge & Gardens

Stay at Monteverde Lodge & Gardens and immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of Costa Rica's beautiful cloud forest. This lodge has a unique charm, modern amenities, and a ton of activities and guided tours. There everything you'll need to make the most of your time in Monteverde.

This is one of my favorite small lodges in Costa Rica. This cozy lodge is set within the beautiful Cloud Forest of Monteverde and this hotel has a perfect vibe.


Destination #3: Santa Teresa

Banana Beach Bungalows

Banana Beach Bungalows is located near the center of Santa Teresa on the Nicoya Peninsula of Costa Rica. It is located just next to the popular Banana Beach Restaurant. Located in the middle of paradise there is easy access to a great surf break. There are 7 unique bungalows with capacities ranging from 3 to 7 people depending on the bungalow.

I love the swimming pool and the fact that the hotel is only a short walk to the beautiful beach of Santa Teresa.


Destination #4: Matapalo

Bosque del Cabo Rainforest Lodge

Deep in a nature reserve on the Osa Peninsula lies Bosque del Cabo Rainforest Lodge, a favorite among adventurous spirits, families and honeymooning couples alike.

I absolutely love this eco lodge, it is my #1 hotel in Costa Rica!


Destination #5: Puerto Viejo

Le Caméléon Boutique Hotel

Le Caméléon Boutique Hotel located in Puerto Viejo, on the Caribbean Coast of Costa Rica. With its laid back attitude and Caribbean lifestyle, Puerto Viejo has it all.

I love long walks on the pristine beaches, exotic flora and fauna in a wildlife refuge. There is also snorkeling among the many reefs in crystal clear waters, world-class surfing, mountain biking, kayaking and cultural visits to indigenous communities.
