"I would give this place a 0 stars if I could. This turned into a vacation from hell. Tired, old, amenities in ruin. Cutting corners with hygiene, caused me to end up in hospital for 4 days with e-coli and Norovirus - from their food and drinks. I reached out for some sort of explanation, compensation or even apology … and got nothing. NOTHING!!! No response, despite several reach outs. Expedia supported my claim - and were responsive - but wouldn’t take them off of their list of properties???!!! As, “according to the rules and regulations”, they didn’t owe me any compensation for a vacation that they ruined. And cost me my good health. Expedia tried to offer me the days missed if we went back before the end of 2026. Not only are flights not affordable to us, but we would NEVER stay there again. Trying to keep others from ending up with a similar experience and ruined vacation :("

"The resort is extremely outdated "

"**Hôtel Margaritaville – Avis** Hôtel **très propre**, autant pour les chambres que pour les aires communes. L’ambiance est **très calme et relaxante** : dès **22 h**, tout est tranquille. Aucun party ni discothèque, parfait pour se reposer. L’animation est minimale, avec des activités douces comme le bingo et l’aquaforme. La **plage est située juste en face de l’hôtel**. C’est une superbe plage publique de **sable blanc**, sans algues ni roches, idéale pour marcher (jusqu’à **2 km**). La nourriture est bonne et le **buffet déjeuner est très apprécié**. Plusieurs restaurants se trouvent aussi à proximité. L’hôtel est à environ **30 minutes en taxi de Tamarindo**. **Points négatifs** : * Il n’y a pas de palapas sur la plage. * Il faut demander des chaises au gardien de sécurité ; elles sont peu confortables. * Les **vélos et petites planches pour la mer sont payants**. * La mer est **très agitée**, avec des vagues fortes, ce qui peut être moins agréable pour la baignade."

"Well maintained resort and the staff were very friendly. Would return again!"

"Pools clean and grounds very well maintained, we had a beautiful room, just smelled moldy so we had to air it.very environmentally cautious and responsibly, no disposable anything, everything energy efficient and conserving resources, everything reusable, clean, we really liked that! Food was very good, enough variety. Staff very nice and always cleaning, working, refilling, picking up, asking what you need but in a discteet way. Not even 1 bad experience with staff interaction. I will definitely come back with family."

"Estuvo precioso una gran experiencia, solo nos quedamos 2 noches y tuvimos un problema con el booking de un restaurante pero de verdad fenomenal, y para sellar con broche de oro, cuando íbamos saliendo del cuarto el muchacho de transporte nos vio y se bajo a ayudarnos a sacar más maletas nos llevó a los carros y nos llevó a la recepción muy buen servicio el de Michael el chófer."
