Hotel Samoa del Sur, hotel in Golfito

Facing the beachfront, Hotel Samoa del Sur offers 3-star accommodation in Golfito and features an outdoor swimming pool, garden and terrace.

Very convenient for the ferry on arrival and for the bus to the border the next day. Breakfast was quite good, plentiful and included. Room 19 is attractive and has ocean views on 3 sides (the only room on the second floor); it's a smaller room but perfect for 1-2 people. It also has a large bathroom with an overhead shower. The second room we booked for the kids had less light but was spacious and comfortable.

La Purruja Lodge, hotel in Golfito

Situated in Golfito in the Puntarenas Region, 6km from down Town. Free WiFi is available all over the property, also free safe private parking is available on site.

There was no breakfast but there are places just down the road. It is a lodge, so its simple and basic, no AC, no hot water but that is what I expected. The gardens and local fauna are amazing.

Golfito Maison D'hôtes, hotel in Golfito

A good location for a stress-free holiday in Golfito, Golfito Maison D'hôtes is a homestay surrounded by views of the river.

This was a quaint stay in Golfito. The bed was comfy and it was nice to have the room to myself. The porch was really cool and comfy. Right by the river, too. You could walk up the river and explore but I didn't stay long enough to do so. The owners were very kind and hospitable.

    My friend and I went duty free shopping. We had such fun. Was disappointed the hotel no longer has a bar or restaurant. We ate at Mar y Luna. Delicious. On the water. BEST margarita I've had in Costa Rica; I've lived here five years.

    We visited Golfito due to its convenience to nearby wildlife viewing (particularly birding) opportunities. A car is a must for this, so if you are not renting a vehicle, this option is not recommended. The property also provides good opportunities for fishing charters. The bay has a big tidal shift and there are no beaches close by, so this is not a good location if that is what you seek.

    We met an amazing tour guide, he offers FREE tours (you can pay as much as you want) and he is great. He took us to a most unique places that we would never hear about. Ask the reception for the free tour guide in Golfito, his name is Steve and you wont regret!

    Golfito is a very pretty area on the shores of the Golfito Bay with a variety of activities and restaurants and bars, and overall a very good range of facilities. A great base to explore the surrounding Parks and Bays and the Gulf with a ferry across to Puerto Jimenez. Good for boating, swimming, kayaking, fishing, water skiing, sailing and chilling!!

    Liked the closeness to nature, did not like the cost of boat trips or fishing trips and there are ripoff merchants around the public car park at the boat wharf who will aggressively hit you up for keeping an eye on your car!!!

    It was unusual and great fun to stay overlooking the Golfito marina - a great spot for the sunset and spotting sea birds. The restaurant was overlooking the water and served good local food. The night we were there was lively, with lots of Ticans enjoying supper so a great atmosphere ... fruit cocktails excellent too! The rooms are huge with a lovely big bed and bathroom, plus fridge and coffee facilities.

    Staff was extremely friendly and attentive. The rooms were gorgeous, well thought and immaculate. The hotel is at a Marina, which makes the whole building very nice and charming. Good range of breakfasts to choose from. You are offered a menu with different types of breakfast and you choose 1 from it. Gorgeous views.

    All meals were excellent, served in the wonderful restaurant that has a vaulted ceiling yet is open at ground level. Staff were extremely helpful in arranging transport for us both to and from the hotel. Cannot fault the staff who were friendly and very efficient. Thoroughly recommend.

    Carlos was a super friendly host and was always happy to answer our questions/give advice. The location was just a short walk from most of Golfito, and the food provided in the restaurant was really good. Our room was also super spacious and comfortable with air conditioning/fan.
