Bamboo River House and Hotel, hotel in Dominical

Located in Dominical, 1.2 miles from Dominical Beach, Bamboo River House and Hotel provides accommodations with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace.

We loved the location. It’s close to the beach yet far enough from any noise. The sunset view was amazing from the pool. The rooms were emaculate. We had no issues with plumbing and hot water. The shared kitchen area was easily accessible and available. The host was friendly and welcoming. The bonus was the river across from the location which was also easily accessible by foot or car. We went to the beach, the river and the pool all in one day. We met some great people who were also guests. We love that it was a family run business.

Iguana Libre, hotel in Dominical

Located in Dominical, 28 miles from Manuel Antonio National Park, Iguana Libre provides accommodations with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a shared lounge.

This place is paradise. We saw more animals here than anywhere else so far in Costa Rica. Even though it is just off the main highway, it is the jungle. The property is large, and full of trees. A troupe of monkeys comes to visit almost everyday. There are agouti, coati, iguana, toucans, hummingbirds, and at night, not far away, coyotes. There is an absolute symphony of nature sounds. The owner, Bettina, and her daughters, are lovely. The breakfast is great - fresh fruit, fresh buns, eggs, cereal, coffee. It kept us going all day. The hotel is ideally situated for visiting the Nauyaca Waterfalls, Marino Ballena National Park and the Uvita beach, Hacienda Baru nature trails, the Alturas Wildlife Sancturary, and more. There is a lovely swimming pool. We would do an excursion in the morning, and hang out by the pool in the afternoon. We were here for six nights, and had a fantastic time. Would definitely visit again.

Located in Dominical, a 3-minute walk from Dominical Beach, Rio Lindo Hotel provides accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant.

The breakfast was excellent. Really enjoyed the screened in patio in my room. The drink menu is more interesting and diverse than most. The pineapple negroni, I'm pretty sure I've never seen anywhere else. Very good. Comfortable bed. Didn't get to use the pool, but it looks great. Hard to beat the location.

Tree of Life Cabinas, hotel in Dominical

Offering an outdoor pool surrounded by an area with loungers, Tree of Life Cabinas is located in Dominicalito, between Uvita and Dominical and accessible by 4-wheel drive vehicles only.

Beautiful location. It is a fairly steep dirt road going to property, however it wasn't a problem for us during the dry season. Room was comfortable. Enjoyed the nice pool & surrounding area. Plants were beautiful. Enjoyed watching the howler monkeys in the trees. Peaceful location.

Pacific Edge Eco Lodge, hotel in Dominical

Featuring sea views, Pacific Edge Eco Lodge in Dominical offers accommodations and a shared lounge. This property offers access to a balcony and free private parking.

We stayed at the Eco Lodge condo. It's like brand new. We also went to the Lodge. Syd and Micah were so hospitable. They even made reservations for an excursion. This place is so cute, their rescue pets were very well behaved. The views were amazing, and you could hear the howler monkeys while eating breakfast! I definitely would recommend to anyone and want to go back!!

    Although I loved Pacific Edge Eco Lodge and would definitely return, I found the little town of Dominical a bit off-putting. Seemed to be filled with aging gringos with no particular layout or planning. The beach was gorgeous though. Also, we visited Naucaya Waterfall, several miles from Dominical which was fabulous.

    Small place, very quite and relaxing. Nice beach in walking distance from any point of the town. Only few restaurants and one supermarket. If you look for more entertaiment, Uvita would probabaly satisfy you much more..

    Beautiful laid-back area with lots of things to do within an easy drive. Great beach area and a charming little town with lots of great places to shop and dine. We especially loved waffle fries at Fuego Brewing Company (and the cute treetop vibe), tacos at Hotel Rio Del Lindo, and homemade empanadas at Mama Toucans Natural Foods Store.

    Dominical is like Ubud or Goa in the 90s- a chilled yoga/surf town. Hippie yoga pants and hammocks are on sale in the shops; Mama toucans sells pretty much everything from vegan food, chocolate and cosmetics. The food here is phenomenal: Phat noodle is excellent, Fuego brews its own beer from passion fruit to a blonde lager and has an excellent menu, the Pescado loco is a small menu but omg the fish taco was sublime. The restaurants are laid back but are really world class food stops. Very close to nauyaca waterfall, the reptile Centre, Alturas and Uvita & whale tail. But the best part is the excellent yoga on offer at Danyasa, which has the most beautiful yoga shala I have ever been in. Rockstar yoga is also great- fab teachers & a lovely space. I loved this place. Super friendly - feels v safe for a female traveler. Quite a few long term residents & off-griders here

    If you love surfing, quiet beach town vibes.

    If you love surfing, quiet beach town vibes. This is your place. We surfed every day. It’s beautiful. Some great restaurants around too like the Thai place. We did yoga in the yoga place up the road too. And there’s an organic market ‘mama toucan’ where we got some yummmy food as I’m Gluten Free and dairy free and there was lots of options for me

    We loved the beach and there were lots of places to get a variety of food and drink. We loved the pineapple juice from the beach bar and also the milk shakes and frappe from the ice cream place just as you turn into Dominical from the main road. There was a lovely walk along the river road too.

    Great place to stay in Dominical. Nicely decorated and clean room, beautiful tropical garden with hammocks and communal area, a 1-minute-walk to the beach and a good breakfast place on the other side of the road. Amy, the owner, is very caring and helpful. Clear and easy communication and she put a lot of effort in helping me out with a transport problem. Just gives that little bit extra to your stay :)

    This is a wonderful place to stay on the outskirts of Dominical. The property is gorgeous and all of the facilities (pool, restaurant, etc) are great. The room was perfect - clean and spacious, with a private outdoor seating area. The location is a pleasant 10 min walk from shops, ATM, etc. and 20 min to the beach. Will definitely come again.

    The view from the lodge is nothing short of stunning and the property is gorgeous. It's also conveniently situated within a short distance from several beautiful (and empty) beaches. Sid and Michaelynn are fantastic hosts: warm, friendly, and hospitable. Breakfast was fresh and delicious - well worth the extra fee. Highly recommended.

    The location of the hotel is great and you feel right at home thanks to the very kind owners! The room is nice and clean. Also the general vibe is very relaxed. At first the hot water in the shower didn't work but the owner fixed it immediately - so great service. Close to the beach - the most beautiful sunsets of Costa Rica.

    Great location. Lots of Dominical within walking distance, beach, restaurants etc. Beautiful grounds, wonderful friendly staff and clean. Very chilled pool vibes. Rooms are not huge but all you need for a few days stay. Very comfy beds and the 'Sleep Menu' was a real treat - we used the weighted blankets.

    It was beautiful. Cozy. The pool was great and the kids spent all their time in when we were not at the beach. It’s is big enough and not too small. Close to everything and able to walk. Food was really good and met the needs of my picky eaters.
