Hotel Bosque del Mar Playa Hermosa, hotel in Playa Hermosa

Right on Playa Hermosa Beach, this boutique hotel features an outdoor pool and hot tub, tropical gardens and a gourmet restaurant. Each air-conditioned suite has a terrace with garden or sea views.

This hotel was the definition of a dreamy escape! They had everything we needed, standup paddle boarding, extremely knowledgeable english speaking friendly staff, and an amazing restaurant. We saw monkey's everyday! All of the rooms are nestled amongst the trees but the beach is only steps away - it is the perfect combination. We went offsite for dinner only one night because the restaurant was so good, we wanted to eat at the hotel! The sunsets were perfect. We also got massages from the hotel and they were out of this world - the best we've ever had (and we get many)!

    A few nice beachside restaurants. Great sunsets.

    A few nice beachside restaurants. Great sunsets. Perfect beach for relaxing and swimming as waves are moderate, not a busy place, but access to plenty of water adventures or outings away from the beach. We used Juan from INFINITY TOURS to plan activities - highly recommend him. He set us up with a same day snorkel tour. Find him on Facebook or call direct at 508-8966-7107, you can also flag him down on the beach as he's often there organizing tours. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063937037776

    Pretty beach...and waves ...I would have preferred calmer sea. The jet skis come in too close to the shore and are hardly ecological. The fish restaurant on the beach is really good.. lovely staff and very fresh food at reasonable prices

    The beach was a little disappointing.

    The beach was a little disappointing. The access to the beach was piled with trash bags and recycling that needed collected. The concrete tables were in disrepair. Old tire laying on one of the broken benches. The dinner and show at Villa del Sueno was great!

    Really loved this calm, friendly beach.

    Really loved this calm, friendly beach. The water was calm for swimming and lovely to look at. There are four nice open air restaurants facing it, we liked all of them, although Aqua Sport played very loud music at times, when the sound of waves and birds would have been much nicer.

    Hosts were more than gracious, we had a small issue with the water heater and it was taken care of at our check out. Very nice and available people. Gave us some great advice on restaurants and places to go. Would stay there again.

    Playa Hermosa is a wonderful, small area with a fantastic, calm, sandy beach and a front row seat for the beautiful sunsets. We stayed here for our last night in Costa Rica since it's only a short drive to the Liberia airport. I would suggest spending 1 or 2 nights here at the start or end of your vacation. It's a nice alternative to staying at the airport hotel and it's very easy and quick to get to the airport by rental care or transfer (25-35 minutes depending on traffic). Just make sure that you chose the correct Playa Hermosa, there is more than one in Costa Rica!

    An overnight stay after an evening arrival flight to Liberia airport. Hotel is conveniently located on the beach about 30 minutes’ drive from the airport. Hotel was quiet with only a few guests. Plenty of secured convenient parking. Very comfortable, clean and well-appointed quiet room with separate sitting area, outdoor patio with large bathroom and comfortable bed. Breakfast was wonderful, regional foods, served in the quiet exterior dining courtyard poolside. The staff were all welcoming, friendly and very helpful.

    The location is great, just a very short walk to the beach on the main road in town. Parking is secure. The pool is very nicely kept as are the hotel grounds. The town is very quiet, except for the howler monkeys - so many to see! Not many restaurants in town, but the ones we did try were great. Nice, quiet beach. If you want more a more lively town and things to do (especially at night), I would recommend staying at Coco beach and not Hermosa.

    The property is beautiful, with lots of plants and flowers and very close to Playa Hermosa (max 8 minutes walking). We enjoyed staying there for 3 nights. The kitchen was well equipped. The room very comfortable including the bed. We could swim/stay at the swimming pool and play a pool in the little house that was at the propery. All in all, I was very happy to choose Moon Shadow and we would stay there again without any hesitation.

    you cannot beat the proximity to the beach! we love Playa Hermosa… so peaceful, warm water, the nicest people… and this property blended right in to the surroundings. we were surrounded by howler monkeys and iguanas while we were in the beautiful pool! we had the oceanfront suite, and fell asleep to the sounds of the waves every night. the staff was always so helpful and sweet!

    This is the perfect stay in Playa Hermosa. It is close to the airport so you can easily extend the final hours of vacation, or the best spot to start vacation. Its proximity to groceries,restaurants and the beach is perfect. Two pools is fabulous to relax in when you have had your fill of beach time. Amazing value for the money. Also quite family friendly.

    The hotel is a beach front property. Playa Hermosa is quieter, less touristy than other beaches. The beach is very clean, and the water is clear. The hotel pool on the roof has one of the best views of the bay.
