Jaco beach

This hitel was not what we were expecting & were initially disappointed, but we did find some short cuts to save all the walking that is involved and we enjoyed our stay, lots & lots of wildlife to be discovered , food was limited to a very small buffet, pool was fantastic, nice & warm & a great shallowness for my shorter hubby who cannot swim, main public beach was not great but private beach was awesome except you must take a shuttle to get there that runs every 1/2 hour, disappointed in the last shuttle was at 5 not allowing for us to view any awesome sunsets which was about 6-6:15

If you're looking for a good all-inclusive resort in Jacó then this is the place for you. The rooms are clean, the staff are friendly and speak english well, and most everything is well taken care of. The only real downside is that it can be a bit of a party destination, particularly on weekends, which makes noise a bit of a problem. I asked for a room change, and the new room was much better situated. The food is better than I've had at other 3-star resorts, but don't expect the kind of food you'd get at 4 and 5 stars. Also beware that Jacó is very touristy town for Costa Rica. For being right on the beach with a good surf school, this is the ideal spot if you're looking for a beach vacation. If you're looking for eco-tours and don't want the beach, then you're better off somewhere more central. Pour les Francophones: ils font assez bien en Français. Marie-Josee et Collette de Nolitours prendront soin de vous, et les guides parlent couramment, particularment David.
