The Westin Reserva Conchal, an All-Inclusive Golf Resort & Spa
Deluxe junior suite was beautiful! Adults really should stick with Westin Club pool. Best food was at Faisinella. Bamboo Asian was really bad. Caracola has most diverse menu and pretty good. Bathrooms in restaurant area were shameful. Sunset at beach incredible, but local vendors can be annoying. ...

Casa Nahua Hotel in Tamarindo
It was very quiet at night—not always the case in Tamarindo. They were very gracious regarding check in/out times. Very simple but clean and quiet.
