Península de Nicoya
On the beach side of the plaza, this basic hotel offers simple, clean rooms with wood floors and ceiling fans, lined up along a wide balcony. Sea-view rooms cost a little more, but are worth the splurge. Otherwise, the patio's hammocks are ideal for soaking up the sunset. Budget rooms (no air-con) are also available.
There are six different price categories for rooms, from budget single to family options.
