Kid & Family Friendly Resorts in Costa Rica

"Dang nice hotel! And we were early before check-in and asked for luggage storage and we were simply checked in early! Great staff! Beautiful hotel! Fantastica and muchos gracias!!!"

"Fantastic place, wonderful staff."

"Deluxe junior suite was beautiful! Adults really should stick with Westin Club pool. Best food was at Faisinella. Bamboo Asian was really bad. Caracola has most diverse menu and pretty good. Bathrooms in restaurant area were shameful. Sunset at beach incredible, but local vendors can be annoying. Overall still a great resort!"

"Stayed here during a trip through Costa Rica and this place genuinely delivered. The location right on Tamarindo beach is hard to beat. You walk out and you’re basically already in the water. Rooms were clean, comfortable, and the AC actually worked well (always appreciate that more than the average person lol). The pool area was a solid spot to post up during the day, and the beach access made it easy to go back and forth without any hassle. Staff were friendly and helpful without being overbearing. They pointed me toward good spots in town and weren’t just trying to upsell everything. Tamarindo itself has a great vibe and the resort is right in the middle of everything, so getting to restaurants, bars, and surf spots was easy. If you’re doing a Costa Rica trip and want somewhere with a real beach feel that’s not overly touristy or stuffy, this is the move. Would definitely come back. 10/10 for the experience overall."

"Our overall stay was nice. We especially enjoyed the pool and refreshments at the pool. However the check in took a full half an hour, we had to stand in a long line to check in and there was only one person working. We were exhausted after flying for 14 hours and they dont seem to care. There were other employees behind the desk and they should have had 2 people checking us in. We also asked for a room with 2 beds via email 3 days ahead and they made it sound like they were going to accommodate us but when we got there it was still one bed and we asked again and they gave us our key and acted like we would be getting a room with 2 beds but we didnt, so we had to share one bed. We wont be staying there again. It should not be rated a 9 on expedia."

"Enjoyed using the shuttle to the beach club and town for dinner "

"Overall good experience ,the sit down dinners were disappointing . The facility remodeled and updated . Pool was great . "

"Hotel Los Lagos is the best hot springs resort at Arenal. The price is reasonable, the hot springs are great, the slide is fun, the breakfast is fantastic, the staff is helpful and friendly. I cannot say a bad thing about this resort, everything was great. This was my 2nd visit this year, and, I have visited this resort, maybe 8 or 10 times over the years."

"Our bed was super comfy, the AC was quiet and efficient. Breakfast was quite good. Proximity and convenience to airport was great and shuttle drivers were very kind and accommodating. Definitely recommend."
