Recommended Hotels, Central Pacific Coast
This is not a hotel guide, only a small selection of specially recommended hotels and lodges on the central Pacific coast of Costa Rica. Jacó, the closest beach to San Jose has its charms; in the famous Manuel Antonio National Park, there are still more monkeys than people.
And also the southern part of the Nicoya Peninsula, reached by ferry from Puntarenas, is part of the central Pacific coast. There we recommend to stay in the town of Montezuma or Tambor.
Hotel Pochote Grande, Jacó Beach
A beach- hotel, not in the middle of the town Jacó, but on the northern part of the beach
This simple, very well placed Copacabana Hotel & Suites with only 24 rooms on 2 floors, is located directly beside the wide sandy beach of Jacó. Although Jacó may not be exactly described as a dream beach, it has its charm. The beach is great for surfing and you can enjoy the sun and long walks on the beach.
Fidelito Holiday Ranch, Tambor
Peninsula de Nicoya
This small and very familiar Hotel- Ranch is a great destination for families- but not only for them. Fidelito Ranch & Lodge is a tranquil retreat in the spectacular setting of the densely forested Tambor hills and the nearby Rio Panica. It offers pasture, sections of forest, small idyllic creeks, natural beauty scenery and two apartments.

nice Hotel Sano Banano
Downtown Montezuma, Nicoya
The town Montezuma has transformed itself in recent years from a village dropouts and target for backpackers, to an attractive destination. The town still has its slightly alternative flair and you feel strange smells, but there are excellent restaurants and a good infrastructure.
Ylang Ylang Resort, Montezuma
The Ylang Ylang is something very special
In a prime location, right on the white sandy beach of Playa Grande de Montezuma, with direct access from the bungalow or restaurant the Ylang Ylang Resort is located. The clear Resort is accessible only by foot or by jeep over the beach. If you travel with your own car, you must leave your vehicle in the town (safe).
