Ali, 7-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Yosh and Roxana where so helpful to set up transportation and day trips for me. I loved the breakfast provided and the bar staff were so friendly. I felt very safe and it was a home away from home. The Beach was steps away and the water was beautiful.

sylvia, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Property is by the beach, well maintained. Breakfast was a fixed menu only two choices - typical costa rica or pancake with fruit. The room was good, but the toileteries offered were not adequate for a beach hotel ( only soap and shampoo, no conditioner). The beach was beautiful!

Complimentary Breakfast is amazing!!! Older style hotel in terms of designing, but being right on the beach and having a balcony makes up for it. Centrally located so you can walk to downtown and explore the heart of Jaco. Also, we found that it was very helpful to stay at a hotel where most excursion were aware of the location. All of the excursions we booked offered complimentary pick up and drop off with bookings because it is a known area and hotel. Would 100% stay here again.
Shayla, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I really enjoyed the location of Hotel South Beach as the beach itself was less rocky then going south or north. There is a surfing school right on the beach front and the staff at the school was so amazing. The staff at the hotel were extremely kind, fun and always pleasant. The rooms are basic, but that is all I needed in this wonderful environment. It is walking distance to the down town, El Miro hike and the famous Jaco sign...I even extended my holiday!! Thank you to Hotel South Beach staff for making my trip so memorable!

The staff are very friendly and helpful, and they served a nice big breakfast! The room was quite spacious and comfortable and the setting has a nice decor with lots of trees and plants and a little bridge over a small creek.

Shanthi, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This property has a beautiful location right on the beach!! the pool is perfect. We loved our stay very much, we recommend rooms 14, 15...those in the back facing the pool that is right next to the bar, which is on the other side of the beach. You can't beat it!
Evelyn, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Pool area was in good condition. No beach chairs on the beach. All chairs were in the shade. They did have surfboard rentals available. Overall, location was OK nothing to brag home about.
Kevin, 3-night trip

2/10 Terrible

It was disgusting — we had to leave. The towels were stained, the bathrooms were dirty, and one of the rooms was full of dust. I couldn’t stay there with my one-year-old baby given how filthy everything was. We had to book another Airbnb and leave immediately. They should have refunded us. I absolutely do not recommend this place.
Gabriela, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Was a little weary for this trip after reading some negative reviews. Sure the place is rundown. But its still got a good vibe; staff was friendly and the location is beautiful. Beachfront is just .. wow.
Brad, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Easy check in, staff was amazing and very helpful. I love the quick access to beach and pool. Bar and music were awesome
