Hotel Cocomar Beachfront Hotel

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Cocomar, I booked this hotel because I felt it was a true Costa Rican experience without American standards. The breakfast was delicious, the beach was completely secluded and all to ourselves, the room was clean and the A/C was cold! The staff was very welcoming and helpful, we spoke to one of the owners on several occasions and he was great. Would recommend!

This hotel might be a little out of the way for someone who does not have a vehicle, but that is one of the things we liked about it. The owner/manger is helpful and engaging. The grounds and rooms are clean and well appointed. The location is quite and beach access is directly across the street. Having a restaurant on site is a plus.

Cosy and relaxing stay. Great if you want to svoid the overrun beaches.

Lovely beach and friendly service. Probably wouldn't eat at the restaurant again - but it could have been what we ordered.

The hotel is privately situated on a stretch of beach that seems exclusive! There are currently 18 rooms and suites so even at capacity it remains quiet and relaxing. The staff are personable and accommodating and the included breakfast is fantastic! We will be back!

Check in was fast and easy and we were given a quick tour of the property. It's a two minute walk across a quiet road to the beach, and the staff even offer to set up hammocks or chairs for you, and there was a volleyball net. After a quick swim in the ocean, we went to the very warm pool (which is open 24 hours!). The property is very well maintained, very friendly staff, and very very relaxing. The only downside is the road to get there is a little bumpy and the hotel is a ways off the main road (but in some ways that was a very welcomed change). I highly recommend staying here.

Great staff and service, great location (if you have your own vehicle), great beach. Restaurant menu and quality need improvement; quite expensive for basic fare. Breakfast was nice but the same every day.

We visited Cocomar for 3 days in March 2018. We stayed in room 13 which was very roomy with a king bed and a single bed. Lovely bathroom with large shower and gorgeous hand-painted double sinks. The view from our outdoor, tiled patio was of ocean and palm trees. This resort has a nice pool. Added features were the Iguanas and Land crabs around the resort which were quite entertaining. This was a nice location as we visited Manuel Antonio and Jaco from here.

Beautiful setting at the edge of a deserted black-sand beach facing south, aligned with sunrise and sunset. Very friendly and helpful staff. Comfortable, clean rooms with good air conditioning, mini refrigerator, closet with drawers; spacious bathroom stocked with soap and fresh towels daily. Two buildings with single units at all four corners, on two floors, giving you a choice of eight single rooms with ocean views, and eight facing the parking area. Large floor-through suites at the center of each building. Outdoor showers and a beautiful pool area with bathrooms and spa. Close-out waves on the beach aren't much good for surfing, but good swimming with some rip currents. The only thing we didn't understand was the prices at the restaurant which are outrageous. This is the only place we visited in Costa Rica where tax and gratuity are NOT included in the price. Skip the Cocomar restaurant - except the delicious, free breakfast - and visit the nearby bar/restaurant on the same dirt road.

We enjoyed while staying there. Very quiet and retired spot.
