Pros:

A truly wonderful place to stay. The location is perfect – peaceful, surrounded by nature, and still close enough to explore the area. The hosts were incredibly warm and welcoming, and the homemade jam at breakfast was absolutely delicious. We loved every minute of our stay and would happily return.

We’re having such a great service and breakfast was excellent as well. I am very happy to have found this beautiful place.

Entspanntes Hotel am Carillo Beach
Pros:

Super schönes Hotel am wunderschönen Strand von Carillo (5-7 Min. zu Fuß).
Wir haben uns von Anfang extrem wohl und willkommen gefühlt. Das Frühstück war qualitativ sehr hochwertig und mit Abstand das beste was wir in Costa Rica hatten!
Einige Lokale, Supermärkte, Bäcker und eine Apotheke fußläufig gut erreichbar.
Super liebe, hilfsbereite Gastgeberfamilie, die Gespräche mit Millie haben wir sehr geschätzt😌🫶

Fantastic and relaxing in a beautiful setting with gorgeous rooms, bathrooms and property.
Pros:

Everything! This hotel and the owners are second to none! Rooms and bathrooms were AWESOME and a great value. The property is beautiful and perfectly maintained. What makes a beautiful place even better--awesome people! Milly was exceptional and felt like a friend by the time we left. She is a fantastic cook--breakfast was WONDERFUL! She and her son Vincent were so helpful in everything we needed. There is literally nothing but positive vibes and experiences at this place. We also loved that it was a 5 min walk to Playa Carrillo, which is a BEAUTIFUL beach. Vacation here was like a wonderful dream come true!

Cons:

Nothing. Everything was literally perfect!

Pros:

Vincent, Sabina, and Milli are the loveliest hosts. The property is peaceful, private and perfect. Great location to everything. But truly the hosts make the place - they are simply exceptional. Vincent has so many ideal recommendations and just an all around helpful and kind human. My second time staying and I can confidently say I’ll be back.

Cons:

Nothing. I wish they allowed kids so I could bring mine but that would mess up the serene environment so truly would t change a thing.

Pros:

Room was pristine, breakfast was very generous and delicious. Staff was communicative and right on point.
Pool was perfectly clean and in good condition. Shower was pristine, fresh sheets, pillows and very clean room!

AC could use some maintenance. We personally let the person in charge know about it.

Ein perfekter Ort zum relaxen. Hier kommen wir gerne wieder hin.
Pros:

Bei dem Hotel handelt es sich um eine durch deutsche familiengeführte Anlage, die sehr zentral circa 300 m vom Strand entfernt liegt. Die Ausstattung ist liebevoll und detailgetreu ausgeführt. Das Frühstück, dass man sich jeden Morgen neu aussuchen konnte, lies keine Wünsche offen.
Die Möglichkeit, sich Getränke, nach Belieben und auf Vertrauensbasis zu nehmen, müssen mehr als positiv bewertet werden. Die Familie sowie das Personal waren überaus freundlich und hilfsbereit und haben alle Fragen, sofort und umfangreich beantwortet. Besonders gefallen die Außen liegende Dusche. Zwei voneinander getrennt gelegene Pools ermöglichen, zu entspannen und relaxen. Ausreichende Sonnenschirme und schattige Plätze ermöglichen, auch bei Temperaturen von über 30° einen schönen Platz zu finden. Auch die Empfehlung für die im Umfeld liegenden Lokale waren hervorragend.

Cons:

Es ist schwierig, etwas negatives zu finden deshalb bleibt am Ende nur zu sagen, es war rundrum gelungen.
