"We loved the location! The bed was one of the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in. Right in the heart of town it was easy to walk to any restaurant and easy walk to the beach! We will be back!!!"

Azura Beach Resort - All Inclusive - Adults Only

Azura Beach Resort - All Inclusive - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent
"AZURA Beach Resort is an absolute gem! From the moment we arrived, the superb staff made us feel so welcome with their A+ customer service. Every bartender and staff member was incredibly warm, friendly, and attentive. A really nice touch was how well they honor Expedia VIP customers—they even gave us a separate "Expedia VIP Customer" wristband, which made us feel truly appreciated! The rooms were spotlessly clean, and the resort property itself is magnificent. As an all-inclusive resort, the food was delicious and the drinks were fantastic. Keep in mind that it is about a 2-hour drive from the main airport, and the resort focuses on pure relaxation rather than high-energy entertainment. But if you want a peaceful, high-quality retreat, it is 100% worth the stay. We loved it!"

Domo Nosara Boutique Hotel

Domo Nosara Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"What can I say? This was the R&R that was much needed - secluded, sophisticated and sleek! Domo Nosaro is located on the Pacific side of Costa Rica, about 90 mins south of Tamarindo. The roads are lush with foliage - and the small stretch leading up to Domo is rough terrain, it is only for about 3 mins - and once you have reached the lodge, you will be well rewarded with its sheet beauty. Check in was a breeze (and in fact we were slightly early - and we were immediately welcomed and provided a room). A few small handy notes: (i) there is no elevator, so luggage has to be carried up - no worries though, as the helpful staff will lend you a hand; (ii) there is no onsite cafe - no worries because the Sunrise cafe and other choice eateries such as Pulpo, are literally a stone's throw away - and their food is on point; (iii) there is no TV because this is an eco-lodge designed for seclusion - no worries though as the wifi is strong and you will be instragramming every 5 seconds anyway! What you will see the spectacular lounge areas overlooking the salt water pool - the temperature is just right (neither warm nor cold - just superbly comfortable) - and pool and beach towels are provided. The rooms are luxurious in a Mediterranean style that truly makes you feel like you got away into the lap of luxury - and the windows overlook plants that are teeming with butterflies and birds! The sound of howler monkeys wakes you up in the morning - and time just flies...wish I had longer!"
