"We weren't prepared for how remote this property is and the extended rainy season made it even more so with very poor road conditions. Be sure to stock up on EVERYTHING you'll need before going up there as a trip to any store or restaurant will be lengthy. We had to leave after staying only one of our two nights as we just didn't have enough food. There is a restaurant on the property which would have been a complete game changer but it wasn't open during our visit in mid-November. The times...

"This was an amazing property with an amazing view and location. All expectations were exceeded. What puts this property above others is the caretaker. The caretaker was absolutely fantastic and made our trip more enjoyable than expected. She made amazing meals, was super friendly and was super helpful when planning our daily activities.
Thank you"

"We stayed for 3 nights, and it was very pleasant. Check in went without a hitch, the facilities were very clean, pool is very nice. Rules are in place to limit noise after 10pm, which we found very reasonable and all guests seemed to respect it so we had a very relaxing and calm stay. Parking is also provided, but it is not gated, so make sure not to leave any valuable items in your car just in case (we didn't have any incidents at all)."

"The place was absolutely stunning, but what truly made my vacation unforgettable was the incredible host. I deeply appreciated the thoughtful and attentive service throughout my stay, as well as the warm welcome from Doris and her adorable pets. Their kindness added so much charm to the experience! I’ll truly miss everyone, especially sweet Milu. "

"Came here as part of a family trip and honestly wasn't sure what to expect from a boutique hotel tucked into the jungle.
Left completely blown away.
The staff is what sets this place apart, from the front desk to the restaurant team — is genuinely warm. Not "hotel-trained warm," but actually present and attentive. They remember your name, they check in on you, and they do it without being intrusive, they go above and beyond on multiple occasions. You feel like a guest in someone's home, not a room number.
The food at Almar is seriously no joke. I've eaten at some great spots and this restaurant punched above its weight in a big way. Chef Hugo puts real thought and care into every plate — local ingredients, clean flavors, beautiful presentation. And breakfast every morning was something I actually looked forward to.
We ate there every single morning and never got tired of it.
The daily yoga class was a nice surprise too. I don't have a regular practice at home but I showed up most mornings and it genuinely added something to the trip. The instructors know what they are doing and makes it accessible no matter your level. Hard to beat starting your day with that, surrounded by jungle.
The vibe here is intentional — slow, calm, adults only. If you're looking for a party hotel, this isn't it. But if you want to actually decompress, eat really well, and be taken care of by people who actually seem to enjoy what they do — ESH is the one."
"Female manager was very inconsiderate to caution a group of girls for being too loud at the pool bar , this is expected and encouraged at an all inclusive resort
Killed the vibe for the rest of the stay"
"Centrally located but quiet. Great staff. Beautiful pool and shared kitchen and cabana area.
For the price, it’s very good/what you would expect. The rooms are simple and parts of the facility are old, but that is why it is priced more affordably than other hotels.
I would definitely stay there again if I stay in the same financial bracket.
If I had more money, I would ideally like to have a more comfortable mattress and newer windows that close fully and no smell of mold.
But all in all, me and my son were very grateful for this charming place that gave us a place to land and lay our heads and have some respite from the hot humidity outside. We loved the pool and the fact that delicious restaurants and beautiful beaches were just a few minutes walk."
"The staff were accommodating and always willing to help. Our room was lovely and as advertised online. Clean, comfortable, and quiet. The pools were wonderful and our spa experience was extremely positive.
Overall good value for dollar.
Our only complaint would be the cost of a poolside drink - it was wild!"
"Our stay exceeded our expectations. The room was clean and comfortable. The made-to-order breakfast was fresh, delicious, and accommodated our dietary needs (dairy/gluten free and vegetarian). The staff were professional, friendly, always willing to help, and made us feel at home. Loved the free laundry service! The onsite Safari Surf School offers excellent surf lessons, and we enjoyed every moment with them. The all-sand Guiones Beach, just a 5-minute walk from the hotel, had ideal waves for us beginner surfers. We also enjoyed a birdwatching tour in the Reserva Biológica Nosara. We would love to return and meet the onsite naturalist, who was away during our stay, to go on a night birdwatching tour next time."

"We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home near the beach in Costa Rica. The location was excellent—close enough to easily walk to the beach. Nearby restaurants and plenty of outdoor activities. The house was very peaceful and private.The house was exceptionally well maintained, clean, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It was clear that the owners take great pride in keeping the property in excellent condition.What truly made our experience special was the outstanding staff. Everyone was friendly, responsive, and eager to help with any questions or requests. Their hospitality made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived.We would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting the area and would happily stay here again on a future trip to Costa Rica."
