Top Hotels Near San Miguel Beach in from NZ$78

"Very nice staff. Lovely pool and well maintained property. Right on the beach and a few steps from a nice restaurant."

"The kitchen was well equipped; could us an electric kettle ( might be a Canadian thing. Hosts were readily available but not intrusive. Great cooking. Pool is a major asset, especially with children. 20-30 species of birds circulate through each morning."

"Our stay at Hotel Amira was beyond expectations and exceptional. The location and the staff, especially the hotel manager, went above and beyond to make our stay more than comfortable. The location was great. Several choices of restaurants nearby and close to beaches. Having stayed at many places in Costa Rica I would highly recommend Hotel Amira as a great place to stay."

"The place is only a couple minute walk to Samara Beach and about a 4 minute drive to Carillo Beach. Both are fantastic! The staff here are amazing and go above and beyond to make you feel welcome and help you select some great adventures without getting ripped off. The food is top notch (and reasonably priced). Other restaurants are nearby too. The pool is small, but adequate to take a dip. The room was clean, and the A/C was great. There was a lot of room (we stayed in the King Suite The wifi was accessible everywhere on property, making staying connected to home and sharing our adventures on social easy. It also feels very private. The only downside comes down to preference. The bed was hard as a rock. If you like a firm bed, then perfect. We like medium firm. Maybe they would've had a mattress topper if we asked. But we persevered. Otherwise, for the price, this is an amazing find."

"We can’t say enough about our ten day escape to Sand Dollar Cove. The photos do not capture the true beauty of this beach paradise. We were so well taken care of by our neighbours the caretakers and we learned tons of Spanish too! Elizabeth was a true premier host, so responsive and helpful. We lost water for a day due to a roadwork issue, and Elizabeth treated us to an amazing dinner out as a gesture of support. Be sure to rent a vehicle that can handle rough gravel roads. We recommend when leaving the coast at Samara to drive the 901 to La Soledad, turn right at the church and follow the entirely paved and smooth road to Pueblo Nuevo. It is a much nicer drive and about the same time wise. If you want true peace in nature with a beautiful spacious (and air conditioned) home, you have to go to Sand Dollar Cove!"

"The hotel room was spacious and clean. The property is clean, well-decorated, and we felt very safe. The staff was very friendly and appreciated a friendly conversation. Many of the staff recognized my partner and me and remembered our drink orders. The pool is absolutely beautiful and well-maintained, but we wish there were more pool chairs with umbrellas, as the sun is very intense. The beach is gorgeous with safe swimming access, which was a huge plus. The restaurants were great, but we were unsure about how to access the Nikoa restaurant and pool. We only stayed a week, and we thought that if we stayed longer, the food options would get old, which was why we were trying to figure out the other restaurants. The Nikoa pool and restaurant seemed like a super-nice, new part of the property that was hardly used at all. We also attended the free yoga classes on-site at the hotel, and the instructor was excellent. However, the hotel gym was old, dirty, and had no AC, which was crazy considering it's over 90 degrees every day. Overall, we would definitely stay at this hotel again. We felt we got a lot of value for what we paid!"

"Excellent stay"

"Beautiful property, wonderful included breakfast. Close enough to Samara to go into town. Did a spa treatment and it was ok, expensive for Costa Rica, and nothing special which was too bad when everything else was so lovely"

"This was the best hotel we stayed at in all of Costa Rica! Absolutely gorgeous property, beautiful pool, clean rooms, the most comfortable beds, and wonderful made to order breakfast. Geraldine, the breakfast waitress is a delight! She's so funny and personable despite the language barrier. We traveled with our 3 year old and we were delighted to find toys and children's books in the lovely sitting area. Such a big help for parents! I'm so happy we stayed here!"
