"The place is located very close to one of the two entrances of the Bahia Ballena National Park. The staff was very helpful and willing to assist in any of our requirements. The place is well maintained and very clean. The manager was very professional and kind with us."

10/10 Excellent
"We had the best time at Lamangata - the hotel is stunning. You can tell Hernan & team take immense pride in the property, as it's impeccably cared for. The pool is also an absolute dream. One thing to note is that the property functions a bit like a chalet, with a setup designed to encourage interaction among guests. If you are open to this, it’s a massive highlight. The rooms are beautiful and offer sweeping views over the vast forest all the way down to the ocean. The surprising highlight of the trip was the unbelievable food. Chefs Eladio and Tony make everything from scratch, and it's all delicious. For activities, my friend took surf lessons and had a fantastic time, learning a huge amount in a very short period. Junior (the head coach) is an incredible teacher. Even though I didn’t surf this time, watching them made me want to come back for a dedicated week of learning! Location-wise, the hotel is situated up a long gravel road, so having a 4x4 is definitely helpful. However, the hotel team is also great at getting you wherever you need to go. You can't walk anywhere directly from the property, but it’s only a quick 10-15 minute drive to the nearest small town. The only minor inconveniences were that the Wi-Fi and the air conditioning in our room could occasionally be a little unreliable. However, the staff always sorted it out quickly, so it really didn't impact our stay. Overall, Lamangata is a truly special place. I can't wait to return!"

"Lovely property. Full of trails in its reserve. Went to the shore - 20 minutes through the woods - to the most magnificent and wild shore. Like heaven! Also went to the natural pool and waterfall - beautiful and cool! The garden, the ocean view from every spot, and the natural and simple wooden rooms - all was a great scene for nature. Dishes of the hotel restaurant (lunch/dinner), not cheap but very tasty. The only thing we missed is an umbrella (which was a must in any other hotel this time of year) for all very wet evenings that we got wet until got to the car..."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Dominicalito?
The best area to stay in Dominicalito is right along Dominicalito Beach, which offers a relaxed coastal experience with convenient access to nature.This area is centred around the crescent-shaped Dominicalito Bay, known for its calm waters compared to the larger waves of nearby Dominical. Accommodation often features direct access to the beach, which is lined with palm trees and offers views of the Pacific Ocean. It's a quieter alternative to the more bustling towns, providing a more secluded feel.Couples looking for a romantic and tranquil escape will find hotels here particularly appealing. The gentle waves are superb for swimming, and the natural setting provides opportunities for quiet walks along the shore or simply relaxing by the sea. Many properties in this area offer private balconies with ocean views, ideal for enjoying sunsets together.Families with younger children will also appreciate Dominicalito Beach for its calmer swimming conditions. The gradual slope of the beach into the water makes it a suitable spot for children to play, and the less crowded environment allows for a more relaxed family holiday.
When is the best time to go to Dominicalito?
The best time to go to Dominicalito is during the dry season, which runs from December to April.During these months, you'll experience consistent sunny weather with minimal rainfall, making it ideal for outdoor activities like surfing, exploring the beaches, and visiting nearby national parks. The ocean conditions are generally calmer, which is great for swimming and snorkelling. This period offers the most reliable weather for a relaxing and active holiday.For those looking for a quieter experience and don't mind occasional rain showers, the shoulder months of May, November, and early December can also be a good option. The landscape is lush and green, and you might find fewer crowds.
