"Lamangata is a first class resort, with the highlights being the healthy delicious food, kind and attentive staff, luxurious room and extraordinary views. If you are a beginner or intermediate surfer, Lamangata is an excellent choice. I am a low intermediate level surfer and received helpful instruction. My wife is not a surfer, but enjoyed the hotel’s other offering such as yoga, pool and hiking. Initially, we were not sure if we would like the family style dining arrangement, but ended up...

"What an amazing piece of paradise! The property is stunning and the staff is very friendly and informative. I would say a 4x4 vehicle is required, especially in the rainy season.

The owner & staff were lovely although my lack of Spanish made communication difficult. There was few maintenance issues, and the room it’s self could do with a little love."

Top Dominical Hotel Reviews

Beachfront Villa, Private Pool & Fast Wi-Fi

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely perfect stay. 4 kids, 2 adults and we were all comfortable and happy! Thrilled with the house, AC in the bedrooms, outdoor eating, pool, and beach front explorations! So many adventures within just a few minutes, grocery store is literally 2 minutes away, and we felt very safe. Absolutely will stay here again if we can."

Beachfront Villa, Private Pool, Fiber Optic

10/10 Excellent

"The best home in a perfect location in Dominical! We thoroughly enjoyed our week in this home. Three bed three bath and a beautiful pool. 8/32 walk to the beach. A two minute drive to downtown Domenical. We loved it so much that we booked again for next year. We like to visit Costa Rica during the off-season, rainy season. I would highly recommend this house and YouGetHere!"

Hotel Diuwak

10/10 Excellent

"El hotel esta super cerca de la playa en una área muy bella exuberante de vegetación, picina super limpia, personal super amable. El desayuno formidable y un reconocimiento especial a Carlos en el lobby y a la muchacha de limpieza por habernos localizado lugo de salir porque había dejado documentos y tarjetas de valor, nos devolvimos y todo super ... super recomendación."

Luxury Home, Amazing Ocean Views! Front Row, Walk to the Beach! Sleeps up to 16

10/10 Excellent

"Casa Linda was the perfect home for our group of 9 (4 adults, 5 teens). The home had everything we needed in the kitchen to cook a few meals, and the host even provided a few local fruits and snacks to get us started. The location is perfect... Beach, restaurants, a thriving local souvenir market and a grocery store are all walking distance. The beach in front of the house is also the best sand of any area beach we tried, with great surf and beautifully framed by palm trees and rock formations at either end. Communicating with the host was easy, and she helped us beyond the rental with activities and transport options. The back patio and pool have great views down to the ocean, with toucans, large iguanas, and occasionally monkeys making an appearance. So many of the typical Costa Rica activities within a 15-20 minute drive without requiring any crazy off-road driving."

New Luxury Home, private pool! 300 steps to beach, 8 min. walk to bars & dining

10/10 Excellent

"We had such a wonderful time on our stay here. The host was great and very responsive before and during our trip.The house was perfect for our group of 5 people and the air conditioning was extremely nice (and worked well the entire trip). Our kids loved having the pool to jump in during the hot afternoons as well. Everything worked well (laundry, pool, a/c, kitchen supplies, etc.). We were also within walking distance to the grocery store and beach and restaurants."

Three Identical Villas with Private Pools. Ideal for a large family or reunion!

10/10 Excellent

"This property is perfect for a group trip as it consists of three Villas with three pools. The location is exceptional in that it is on the ocean and also within walking distance to both the towns of Dominical and Dominicalito. The caretakers are very receptive to any issues and the security is good. I would recommend this property if you are interested in a good balance between an authentic Costa Rican experience and a luxury Costa Rican experience. It is a great home base for visits to Nauyaca Falls, Dominical, Manuel Antonio National Park, Uvita and Hacienda Baru. Numerous interesting animals visit the property daily especially iguanas."

Epic 1 BR Ocean View Villa. Dominical. Gated. Minutes to Dominical beach.

10/10 Excellent

"Pictures are accurate. Great view over Pacific. Quick access to Dominical for supplies and dining. Access from main highway is a 3-minute drive on somewhat steep and partially unpaved road. Very doable, especially with 4-wheel drive. We had a few question during our 10-night stay and the management company was easy to reach and responded quickly. We would absolutely stay there again."
