Beach Hotels & Resorts in Nicoya Peninsula from AU$82

"DO NOT BOOk THIS HOTEl!!! This hotel is the worse hotel I have ever been. Do not have restaurant only a salad bar and all the food is exposed to the flies. The only bar open has a ice chest that is rusted and all the flies are around the ice chest. Everything is so gross and filthy. Please don’t make the same mistake I made. We booked this hotel and had to be transferred to another hotel we didn’t even stay 1hr. DO NOT GET THIS HOTEL 1-10, I rate it a 0. "

"Older property but still nice. Rough drive getting up the hill to it."

"I stayed at the hotel. The room had an ocean view, was clean, and comfortable. The only inconvenience was that the AC wasn't cooling enough. I requested a technician to fix the issue, but none was ever sent."

"Breakfast was very good. The staff were friendly but we found service to be slow (everywhere not just Diria). The pools were very nice and beach is great. The resort is in a great location. The rooms were unimpressive and the whole place is showing it's age a little but we would recommend this place. Very safe and easy to book excursions etc. "

"Pool yes"

"The property is beautiful!! Check in was a challenge as they wanted us to use the Riu App which did not work for us. Finally we received physical key cards. Our room was also lovely. Housekeeping was a bit hit and miss when it came to re-stocking towels. Sometimes we were only given two bath towels and we went without hand towels or facecloths. However in using the Riu app we were able to notify housekeeping and the next day the towel situation was resolved. The mini bar service is only restocked every other day. On day 3 of our stay, I saw the tiny notification in the bathroom that the water is non-potable. Yikes!! Given that the bathroom water is non-potable, we had to request additional water daily through the Riu App. The only restaurant on the property that takes reservations is the Steak House. We were able to reserve for 2 nights. The first night our reservation was at 7 pm. The servers were excellent but were definitely geared to get us in/out as quickly as possible. We asked for the menus but instead were directed to a qr code. The meal was rushed although we did our best to try and relax. However after dessert at about 8:15 we had a very stressed ‘hostess’ come to our table and ask if we’d had dessert. We said yes it was delicious. She said why are you still here? I said do you want us to leave? She said Yes!! So we did!!"

"We had such a great week at CC Beach Front, the staff was so welcoming and friendly. The food was amazing, I thought by just having a buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner by the end of a week I would be tired of the choices but they do a great job of switching up the food every day. There were Italian, Mexican and Asian themed dinners when we were there. We stayed in a garden view room that was set back from the main buildings but a very short walk. If you'd like more privacy these are the rooms for you, the other rooms all face either the pools or the beach. Assess to the beach felt secure through their locked gate and the attendant was happy to move beach chairs out for you if wanted to lay on the beach. We saw a range of ages and groups, families, couples, etc, the atmosphere is really family friendly. We did the tasting menu in the other 'restaurant' our last night, which was also really delicious, you have to make reservations for that and it only happens specific nights of the week. Overall, we would definitely go back and stay in the future!"

"There was no laundry room"

"The pool area and all facilities were excellent, as was the beach. "
