    Very run down.

    Very run down. We went passed the local prison 2 roads away from place we had originally booked. No trees,no green, just run down building with barb wires and high gates, corrugated iron....not nice, avoid.

    While the hotel and staff were lovely and helpful the common verandah didn't allow for much privacy. The hotel was also at least 5kms from the rest of the town with no shops or restaurants nearby, so a little isolated. But the beach just across the road was a bonus.

    Plenty of restaurants, activities to explore, etc. For me, It totally depends on your hotel. I’ve stayed in Puntarenas many times, but my trip this week to Hotel Puntarenas Beach was, sadly, my worst hotel experience in Puntarenas.

    Nice city, you feel quiet safe, only at the beach and i the city a lot of agressiv beggers and seems like the police dont care, told they are not locals, but from the countries around Costa Rica, for the rest its a great place, easy to drive around in the region and see everything in max 3 hours drive away, locals drive nice, even the trucks.So will go back again

    Puntarenas is only worth the visit if you're gonna take the ferry boat to the islands next to it. The beaches are not great, full of trash, plastic , i guess because of the location and the currents? Not a lot to see or do. Not impressed.

    Friendly town with lots of friendly people.

    Friendly town with lots of friendly people. Great spot to visit the smaller islands and their virgin beaches. Please visit the light house area and Isla Cocos restaurant. The fresh seafood is excellent and the staff wonderful.

    Fabulous location with gorgeous views from the room as well as from the pool and breakfast area. The lower jacuzzi in the forest area is absolutely lovely by day and night, a pleasure to bathe and socialise in the midst of nature. Breakfast was delicious and a good choice of possibilities. The hotel is near to restaurants, cafés and shops with a really good range of food and drink on offer. The room was calm, relaxing, comfortable and spacious with very necessary and effective airconditioning.

    This property is very clean. Very safe and wonderful staff. We enjoyed the restaurant and it also has a little market which is located 12ft from the beach. The pool was wonderful as well. This is the best place in this area. It is 1 mile to town center and you can taxi, walk or bus very easily. Complimentary breakfast was very good. We are grateful to have stayed here!

    The location was a bit difficult to find, as we had to drive on a street that didn't look like a street and was not marked. The photo from the listing helped us to identify the property. The house was light and airy and nicely furnished. The swimming pool was just right after a day of traveling. Large backyard with furniture and grill. Close to the beach.

    THIS IS ACTUALLY A REVIEW FOR PUNTARENAS BACKPACKERS, they moved me because there was no wifi in my room when i specifically asked for it. The room before i moved though was pretty dismal, musty and not really a hotel, just some rooms around some plants and some hammocks. Bed was comfy Good wifi Close to beach

    it is a very nice and calm hotel, with a small pool, where you can enjoy the evening in front of you room. Very nicely decorated. An open lobby and reception, providing free coffee and tea all day long. Very friendly and helpful staff. Private parking space and very close the the ferries to Nicoya peninsula.

    Everything was so clean, it was unbelievable, the room, the pool, the common areas, all clean. The staff was friendly and extremely helpful. I generally stay at private locations over hotels, but this place was perfect. I definitely plan on staying there again.

    We stayed in this hotel as an overnight before taking the Paquera ferry to the Guanacaste Peninsula. The hotel was clean and acceptable. Certainly no frills but all we needed was a bed to rest our heads before moving on. This hotel fit the bill just fine.

    Everything here was first rate. Totally unexpected. In our dozens of trips to Costa Rica, we never had any desire to stay in the Puntarenas area. Due to the logistics on this trip, we found ourselves in the area. What a find! Hotel Cayuga was an oasis.

    Stayed there one night during our road trip. Clean room with comfortable bed. Nice little pool. Mini market just 10m from hotel. 20m to the beach. Beach is maybe not good for swimming, but nice for wondering sunset.
