JW 메리어트 과나카스테 리조트 & 스파(JW Marriott Guanacaste Resort & Spa)

Beautiful property right on the beach. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Many activities offered at the resort which is included in your stay, We really enjoyed the cooking class and mountain biking tour. There are also activities around the property in Hacienda Pinilla. We loved the horseback riding tour. The concierge and the transportation staff were very helpful and always made sure we were taken care of, especially if we had a schedule change. The property is 30 minutes from Tamarindo so we were able to do some shopping. We loved staying here and plan on coming back again.

Food and beverage could definitely use some help. The food was not up to par with Marriott anywhere else and the drinks were watered down

Pricey is ok, but only if you provide excellent service and food. This resort keeps the high prices but does not offer great service or even good food. There are times during the day when many restaurants are not even open. The quality of the food and preparation was not great.

Very nice and unique property with every suite unique in this top rated stay. Staff very kind and friendly

This property looks aged and the food options on site are bad; it's a bit far from any other options as well. We were thankful to have a car to go off site for meals. Service wants to do well but they fall a bit short; bored and over worked maybe? The infinity edge pool view to the ocean is beautiful and the large pool is quite nice. However, many other resorts have a pool. Room AC was cold and we slept well. We would not likely return. Costa Rica is so beautiful and this hotel feels like a lonely island away from the authentic beauty of the country.

Staff and grounds are impeccable. Highly recommended.

Nice hotel for a family vacation. Pool and beach were great! Excursions were wonderful but expensive. The restaurants on property were not great and not of the quality you would expect in such a nice hotel.

Many of the restaurants were just ok. Also, their menus didn’t change at all while we were there. Could use some variety. Salads weren’t on the menu. Had to make a special request to get one.

Online room reservations are deceiving. Reserving a ocean view room may give you a peak of the ocean from your terrace . It is not clear that to really see a view of the ocean you need to reserve an ocean front room. Also if you have any difficulty walking be aware of this property being very large and walking around the pool to access the steps into the pool can be a long walk.
