Top Playa Gandoca Hotel Reviews

Pangea Lodge

8/10 Good

"Nice swimming pool, staff friendly and very helpful. Kitchen very well equipped and functional. Location great- Very close to a beach, national park entrance and bus stop. Unfortunately there is a plumbing issue so there was often a nasty smell by the poolside and both toilets in our rooms didn’t flush properly."

KAÑIK APART HOTEL

10/10 Excellent

"This is wonderful location. It is away from the busy areas with a 5 minute walk to the beach. The property was beautiful and the hosts were amazing."

Faith Glamping Dome Costa Rica

8/10 Good

"The glamping domes are not for those looking for a hotel with all of the amenities. It is glamping. The domes are smack dab in the middle of a forest surrounded by lots of nature. The ocean is steps away with a very private beach. The water was pretty rough in June, but still beautiful. Breakfast was delicious. The showers at the domes are cold water only; however, there is a separate hot water shower on the grounds. The zipper and small opening to some of the domes can be difficult to move in and out of (some have larger doors). Overall, it was okay."

Exōtico Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely space… lovely staff … great restaurant … a wonderful stay complete with tree frogs!"

Almonds and Corals Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful site in the midst of the jungle at seafront. Beautiful rooms, comfortable beds, exciting experience. Nice beach, but not well maintained, maybe because of the season? (beginning of June). Beautiful restaurant with friendly staff and very good meals."

Casa Yamann

10/10 Excellent

"This was a beautiful, quiet stay with nearby restaurants and a convenience store close by! Nice pool too "

Casa Coral Azul

10/10 Excellent

"The house was in great condition, kitchen had plenty of plates, cups, pots and pans, utensils, rice cooker, everything. Pool was clean and refreshing. Lots of room for the family for a few days."
