"Beautiful view, very clean, and we were delighted to have all the monkeys to greet us upon our arrival out front thanks to Carlos tray of sliced bananas! Suggest new comfortable tv room furniture to comfortably seat large group instead of pieces of patio furniture. "

"The home was fantastic. It's location was great with breathtaking views. The staff was very attentive to our needs and provided a wonderful week for us. We loved the many alcoves where people could get alone to think or pray. The kitchen was great and the pool was wonderful. "

"For the price it matches the experience. That washing machine and the soap/ detergent was great, good easy walking distance from the Jacó beach and restaurants "

"We had an amazing stay for my sisters birthday, the house is beautiful and in a great spot. The concierge Carlos is beyond exceptional when making reservations, or getting you what you need. Could not contact the host or anyone though until 3 days before the stay, so that was a bit worrysome. But overall great place to stay on Los Suenos "

"Our kids had a blast — they spent most of the time either at the beach or in the pool (which honestly was pretty much our whole trip, and we loved it). There’s a nice little breakfast spot nearby with great bagels, and just a short walk away is Jaco Walk, where you can find all kinds of restaurants. We tried a few dessert places too — totally worth it!We didn’t explore much beyond the neighborhood, so can’t say too much about Jacó overall. The rooms were comfy, and the villa itself felt super...

"Pros: Kind, responsive property managers, close to beach and local food nearby.
Cons: Roaches. I was beyond mortified to have had my leftovers in a to-go box in the refrigerator and upon opening to Re-heat a cockroach about 1 1/2 - 2 inches long scurried out!!! Everything we had, that we’d opened we threw out. Upon leaving the room, at about 3:45a we were packing and cleaning our dishes and saw again baby roaches rushing to hide into the walls which confirmed there are roaches in the unit....

"The property’s location was excellent—right on the beach and about a 10-minute drive to Jaco. It had a charming old-world feel, and the staff were friendly. Unfortunately, that’s where the positives ended. The property is in serious need of renovation, with many things visibly falling apart. Some units lacked hot water, and while the service was polite, it was very slow and eventually got the job done. Overall, the property has a lot of potential to be 4+ Star property, but it needs significant...

"My group of 15 friends had a great stay at the Castle of Oz. The property exceeded all expectations and we were very well taken care of by the entire support staff, who were available night and day to provide any assistance we required. They made our stay stress free! I highly recommend this property to anyone looking to stay in Costa Rica. "

"Amazing home with the perfect location! Our property manager, Korinne was on top of everything. She made the check in/out process so easy and offered help at every turn to make sure our trip was the best ever. I would recommend this property to everyone."

"Communication was grudging at best, there was no one there to receive us and no information folder. In consequence, we did not have the front door code or the lock box code to get the beach club cards until hours after we arrived and I had bullied the driver that picked us up at the airport into helping me. Bob was great! The property is amazing and we enjoyed it tremendously. The area has lots of restaurants and convenient shopping. Rent a golf cart, it made our lives so easy!"

"This was the third hotel I stayed at in Cost Rica and definitely my favorite. The food was great and staff very friendly. My room was very nice, actually one of the one bedroom condos currently for sale. If this hotel was on the beach I wouldn't hesitate to purchase a unit. It is close enough to walk to the beach however."
"Beyond five star.****
Staff professional, kind, competent
Grounds- spotless
Pool- a dream
Our room 102- great for mobility issues and exceeded our expectations "
"As a Costa Rican who has been visiting Jacó my entire life, I’ve witnessed the town grow busier and more commercial over the years. So discovering Hotel Lia felt like stumbling upon a true oasis amid the hustle and bustle.
This beachfront hotel offers something rare in Jacó: a peaceful, safe, and beautifully designed space that feels a bit removed from the chaos, without sacrificing location. The access to the beach is seamless, and the setting itself feels new, fresh, and thoughtfully maintained. Everything was spotless, from the rooms to the common areas, and the pool area was especially lovely.
One of the highlights was the staff, they were warm, helpful, and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. At one point, they even set things up so we could enjoy the sunset directly from the sand, which was such a memorable touch.
The food at the on-site restaurant was surprisingly good, with fair pricing, and it made staying in that much more enjoyable. Honestly, everything about our stay was pleasant and easy.
What makes Hotel Lia even more special is its proximity to San José. It’s only a two-hour drive, making it an ideal weekend escape without the long haul that other beautiful beach destinations in Costa Rica often require.
All in all, I only have great things to say about this hotel. It’s a rare find in Jacó, and I highly recommend it to anyone, locals or visitors, looking for a stylish, safe, and peaceful getaway just a short drive from San José."
