Find Puerto Carrillo Hotels near Carrillo Airport (PLD)

"Overall my wife and I made the best of it and enjoyed; however we will never return to this resort. The good was really the staff. They work very long shifts - you might see the breakfast server as the bartender in the evening. Most of the staff were friendly and helpful. Now the bad…We saw on the site that there was construction at a neighboring resort; however they start early and work until late. The construction could be heard all day long - even during the massage with music on. To add insult to injury - they began construction in a room 2 doors down from us last few days we were there. It was so loud we couldn’t even hear the tv so we spent last few days outside our room which was fine with us as we like to be outdoors but returning to the room was miserable. Our last night, we finally asked to switch rooms. The client services manager said would have to ask general manager. All they did was not respond until the work day was finished so they could say oh no need work is finished. Would have been an easy fix - just another room for 1 night and half day but they chose to handle in poor service manner. The rainfall shower head sprayed in all directions due to the water mineral deposits blocking. The walk to the rental car is completely dark, trees and bushes etc were not well maintained. After the construction was complete - we could hear rodents on the roof all night - wife had to turn on soothing sounds to drown em out."

"Very clean and quiet "

"This gorgeous villa is exactly as described with simple amenities in an extraordinary setting. The kitchen contains basic cookware and kitchenware, and there is no air conditioning in the living ares, as is in the description. But there is all important AC in the bedrooms, daily cleaning and evening security. There are a number of extra security measures in place, we did as we were asked and had zero issues. The house and grounds are beautiful - the pool area feels very private, even though the house is located in a very pleasant quiet neighborhood with other houses and restaurants a short distance away. You could spend your entire vacation in the shade of the veranda on the back of the house by the pool and feel like you found paradise. Great for the kids. There is high quality, comfortable solid wood furniture inside an out. Jackie was an attentive host. She gave us a lot of guidance before we arrived on what to bring and how to get there, promptly answering all questions. She arranged to meet us in person shortly after we arrived to give recommendations on things to do in the area, and we had a lovely time just talking to her. There was plenty wildlife around the yard to keep us entertained all day. We were fortunate enough to catch the change over from the dry to rainy season quite literally in the middle of the week we were there, and watched the whole landscape and surroundings change with emerging green and all kinds of animals and insects in a matter of days."

"Well kept property, convenient, friendly staff, quiet and peaceful"

"Staff was very friendly and helpful. Hotels beach was not really kid friendly, or even adult friendly. (at least not for me) There was no space to put our towels and beach accessories. We walked about 5 extra minutes to get to the other side of the beach, which was in front of another hotel and it was a little nicer there. There was a beach about 5 min away (by car), from the hotel (Playa Carillo), and it was BEAUTIFUL! Brian, the manager was so kind to give us a ride in his personal car because my daughters foot was injured and we couldn't walk there. There were some foods that we ordered that were subpar, but there were some foods that were absolutely delicious (the fish, burger, ceviche). I really enjoyed the fish !! The drinks (virgin, and alcoholic) were so refreshing and yummy. I loved every single one that they would make for me. The breakfast was okay. The French toast was yummy and the fruits were fresh and juicy. The staff was super accommodating and everything was pretty clean. If you ask me, id recommend that they get a gold cart or similar, to get to a from the beach on site. (but maybe I'm just lazy). Their shuttle service was punctual, and clean. The excursions are pretty close (about 5 to 10 min away), and they were amazing ! All in all , it was an awesome trip/stay. I would definitely go back."

"Located about a mile and a half outside Playa Carrillo Beach, tucked away in a small community. This place offers peace and serenity for those searching for it. The backyard is a peaceful oasis offering a wonderful plunge pool, hammocks, charcoal and gas barbecue grills, plenty of seating for as many as 12 or more. The inside is spacious and quaint. It's like a little mountain Casita with some modern features. You have the option for open air concept here or you can use two of the mini splits they have on hotter days. Host is extremely responsive. The property is clean and well maintained. Maid service is offered as part of the package. I strongly encourage you bring a car. If you are not using a car there is a local cab driver named Jabier; the host will have his contact info. If you do get a chance to meet Jabier, he makes and sells some of the best of ceviche we've had in all of Costa Rica.We spent a total of 13 days here and it was absolutely what we needed to recharge before going home. The beach is small and beautiful and not crowded. There are food vendors across from the beach. There are multiple grocery stores and there is a carneceria in town. Leyenda hotel offers a restaurant open to the public that has a massive variety. This is definitely staying on our list of repeats. What a hidden little gem!"
