We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with Cariblue. The grounds are gorgeous and the rooms are very nice and comfortable. Loved the pool and the restaurant was good. Location is perfect-enough outside of town that it is quiet but close enough that you can walk (20-30 mins) or bike (7 mins). My only minor issue is that the swim up bar... More

Hotel is made of many bungalows and 4-plex bungalows. Bungalows are furnished in a minimal but adequate manner. Hotel grounds are beautifully kept up and make a great place to enjoy a slow breakfast and wake to the day. The pool was generally quiet, but well kept and nice to use. Pretty much everything about this place was as nice... More

When we first got to the hotel they had our reservations mixed up. We had the superior suite with extra bunk beds and they did not have that available. They ended up putting us in a regular bungalow and then moving us the next night to the superior suite. Both rooms were very clean and beds were comfy. They were... More

This place was quiet and relaxing. There were lots of animals around to look at and the staff were very friendly. The rooms were cool - although the bathrooms were a bit basic. The breakfast was very good and the rest of the food was nice too. I recommend the cocktails. I would make sure to get taxis to and... More

I was at Cariblue last week and I had a very memorable stay. The rooms are comfortable and cozy, the food was delicious and the staff very friendly, helpful and professional. I liked being across the street from the surf beach and I really enjoyed the large pool when i didn't feel like getting all salty and sandy. I will... More

The rooms are clean, the 'jungle' experience was true, the pool was clean, the grounds are kept clean, and the security is excellent! What made this hotel the best experience of all the places we stayed in Costa Rica was the staff, in particular, Melvin in the dining room, and Gabriel at the front desk. They were informative, helpful and... More

Our group of 6 women booked 3 double bed rooms in May 2012 for our trip in March 2013. On checking in we found one suite with two queen size beds, 2 bungalows with king size beds and child cots squeezed in at the foot of the beds.The manager told us the resort had only 1 suite with double beds...

Nice acomadations our room did not lock all you had to do I'd lift up door to unlock. Staff not helpful in planning or knowledge of activities in the area, simply handed you a book and the phone and you were on your own. Kids enjoyed pool. Food average but very expensive and beach across street was dangerous to swim... More

The deluxe bungalow was nice, surroundings beautiful and we especially appreciated the pool as our little one was afraid of the big caribbean waves. We also appreciated pina coladas and mojitos served at the pool bar :). Feels also totally safe- guards at the entrance checking cars entering. Breakfast varied daily and both costa rican and tourist options were offered.
