Roy was great with the check in process and making sure we were updated prior to arriving. Heads up, make sure you’ve got WhatsApp installed prior to arriving. Seems to be the best means of communication with the property. Plenty of restaurants and bodegas within walking distance. We’ll definitely stay again when we return to Santa Teresa."

Top Nicoya Peninsula Hotel Reviews

Hotel Bosque del Mar, Playa Hermosa

Hotel Bosque del Mar, Playa Hermosa

10/10 Excellent
"If you are looking for a boutique hotel right on the beach, look no farther. You feel like you are in the jungle yet you have the pacific right in front of you. We saw monkeys, iguanas and lots of tropical birds. All the workers go above and beyond to make you feel at home. The service at the restaurant and on the beach was so good. We loved everyone. We were only there 4 days yet they got to know us and our names and treated us like family. The food, drinks (NA and With alcohol), was excellent. We were traveling with our two sons 16 and 19. They loved the bar, pool, and pool table. We also got great massages at the spa. The beach is small and quaint. It felt like a private bay. The water was warm and the bay was very protective. If we had young kids we would have felt very comfortable with them in the water. Not many waves. Highly recommend this exquisite hotel. Thank you for a great stay"
