4-Star Hotels in Guanacaste, Costa Rica

We had read many great reviews before booking this property, but were a little apprehensive about if it would live up to expectations. Oh yes it did! The staff are friendly, helpful and welcoming and the property is very well maintained. While lounging by the pool, expect a lizard or two and your morning alarm could be the howler monkeys. This property is centrally located allowing you easy access to the beach and town, but the gardens and pool offer pure tranquility. You can physically feel the energy change as you cross the road and walk up the path up from the beach back to your room. There are steps into reception, down to the pool, restaurant and into rooms, so consider this if not mobile. The breakfast buffet was delightful and the evening meal offered two starter, two main and one dessert option that varied each day. The room was big, comfortable, toiletries provided and strong Wi-Fi throughout, even on the beach. We thought this property was great value for money and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Excellent and pretty new hotel. Breakfast is very good and abundant. Hotel staff very friendly. The only cons are the thickness of the walls. We had noisy people next door that disturbed us early in the morning. The room is a little small for a family of 4. Special mention to Daniela, our housekeeper. She has been great!!! Super recommended hotel.

Great place to stay and visit! We loved everything about Hacienda Guachipelin. The staff was amazing, the pool and poolside bar were lovely, the breakfast and dinner buffets were terrific, and the amenities (hot pools, waterfalls, walking paths) were spectacular. In hindsight, we would have booked a few more days here.

酒店實景和照片一樣好，非常有特色，軟件硬件都很好，孩子們非常喜歡。強烈推薦！ 建議選擇包餐，比在餐廳單點划算（因為是野奢酒店，出去吃飯很不方便，建議就在酒店吃）。餐廳很棒，價格也不算離譜，包餐是三道式（前菜+主菜+甜品），餐後會簽一個賬單，有價格（但包餐不用另付），酒水需另付，小費按這個賬單價格為基礎需另外付。主菜有五六個選擇，出品不錯，量很大，服務也很親切，特別推薦當地特色啤酒。 最高處的lookout觀景台很棒，看落日和星星很愜意。泳池在山間，會有落葉，白天有人打掃（但也不能指望像室內泳池那麼乾淨），但野趣很足。本來也想晚上去遊，但沒想到晚上泳池會有很多青蛙來遊，雖沒遊成但非常有趣。 房間往來餐廳可以叫Golf車接送，隨叫隨到很方便。房間內各種設施很齊全，尤其望遠鏡很棒。 酒店也提供周邊各種付費的短途Tour,可以提前預約，但既然住野奢圖的就是在大自然中放鬆，待在酒店也並不會無聊。

We had a good time this place. Food and room were good. We recommend for good times with less money.

The hotel is a bit old, but it is well maintained, very clean, and has a very good holiday feeling. The location is especially good. The town center is very lively and good for shopping (the Pizaa restaurant next to it is delicious). The hotel faces the sea, which is almost a private beach. The beach is of very good quality, with clear water and fine sand, extending far away and not deep. Although it is not as beautiful as the sea in Cancun, it is more suitable for playing (especially surfing). Although it is a public beach, the hotel's own lawn area is very large. You can rest under the benches and coconut trees in the hotel. You can go down two steps to the beach, so you don't need to go to the beach to compete with everyone for a position. The beach is very clean and popular. There are many surfboard rentals and surfing courses. You can even get a massage on the beach, which is very interesting. Tamarindo is a tourist hotspot. You can find a local travel agency to sign up for many short tours. We signed up for a 3-hour tour to watch turtles lay eggs in one night (November to April is the turtle laying season every year), which is very interesting. We only stayed for one night, but staying one more night would be more relaxing. In short, it is worth recommending.
