Marriott Vacation Club at Los Sueños

We have traveled to dozens of Marriott vacation clubs and this is one of the best ...it is small..24 units.. staff was very friendly the pool area that you can use next door at the big hotel is outstanding.. the beach is not great but walkable.. we had a wonderful time.. the two bedroom unit was spacious and huge.. it had everything we needed ..including 2 free cleaning services..our view was on the far right side of the resort in the trees area with trees in front of us and we thought that wasn't going to be a good view but we soon came to learn that the Macaws flying into those trees are absolutely beautiful.. we took the golf course iguana tour and it was outstanding highly recommend you do this and it's free... the restaurants at the hotel were pretty good not great but expensive but we enjoy them nonetheless..especially Hacienda Kitchen.. we also went to the restaurants and Al Fresco next door and Marina with mixed results.. we most liked CoCos on the beach..$7 cab fare..used a local taxi..cheaper than hotel transportation...outstanding cocktails for happy hour 4:00 to 7:00 p.m... we used Piko tours for all our daily tours and they were amazing. We also went during the rainy season and very worried about this.. however every day was sunny in the morning until about 2:00 p.m. , only rained 2 afternoons and 1 evening..we took rain jackets and never used them and we also took binoculars and never use them because all the guides had them and we took heavy hiking boots and didn't need those either just a good pair of tennis shoes would have been fine.. if you have the opportunity to visit this Resort on highly recommend you do

Where do I begin? I just spent 12 nights at the property, returning for the second time. This stay was even better than last year. If you like nature, a resort with spa, restaurants, amazing kids club activities and a fabulous pool, this is the resort for you. I came here in August both times, which is their low season, and felt like I had the resort to myself. There is so much to do here and it is a great staging place for all activities, even Manuel Antonio (about 1.5 hour drive away.) In summary, we will definitely be back and already feeling a little sad and regretting that we decided to skip coming back next year. The taxi desk is super convenient. We didn't have to wait more than 2 minutes for a car. It is about $18 round trip to the local restaurants and super market and $40 round trip to Jaco. Salvatore, who drives the Marriott van, is sweet and nice. He will wait with you when picking up food or groceries. He will also give you a tour of Jaco! We went on so many excursions. I recommend the nearby aerial tram and butterfly garden tour. It is very relaxing ride up to a landing where you can get a beautiful view of Jaco and see Costa Rica's largest flag. We also went on a bird watching tour at Carara but we did not see many birds (we heard then but could not find them). We did come across a family of monkeys! We also went to tours closer to Quepos: hanging bridge tour (beautiful views) and a night tour in the rain forest. We also chartered in-shore fishing with Captain Juan on his Fish Hunter boat and caught huge amberjacks and rooster fish (40-70 lbs). The boat departs from the beach nearby that is a 5 minute ride from Los Suenos. We were able to take some of the filets back, which Hacienda Kitchen prepared for us. It took about 2 hours to prepare and they charged by the person. The meal also came with 2 sides. Delicious!! Hugo and Victor at Hacienda Kitchen were so nice and helpful. Do not miss the eco tour that is included with your stay. We did this tour last year and we saw many more animals on the tour this year. So no tour is ever the same! This year we saw monkeys, sloths, coatis, macaws, toucans, so many different iguanas and birds. The kids club had really amazing activities for my nice and nephew. We have been to a few other Marriott properties and the activities were usually a bit lame or you had to pay extra. All the activities here are complementary and included: making a piggy bank, make your own dream catcher, learn to make pizza at the Hacienda Kitchen, make a bracelet and decorate a cupcake. The pizza was actually really good! The villa is spacious and comfortably accommodated 4 adults and 2 children. We had the villa that is second the the last one on the end near the trees, but loved being able to bird watch the toucans and macaws perched in the trees. If you want a visit from the toucan, ask for the villa on the end because we saw the toucan perch on the terrace a few times during our stay. Lastly, Silvia, who w

Nice hotel with beautiful pools and views of Los Suenos Walking distance to the marina and small beach town.

This is an amazing property (we stayed at the Vacation Club) but best of all the people are phenomenal! The service is amazing, warm and friendly. Axel, Maria and Andrey took a potentially bad situation and went above and beyond in a dramatic way When our room was not ready until 24hrs after we arrived. They automatically provided us a suite at the hotel (which was great) until the work was completed at our unit the next day. They went above and beyond to take care of us. I really appreciate all they did. The Vacation Club rooms are very comfortable, clean and modern. A great place to stay.

The properties, pools, golf course, shops, the harbor being close by with more shops, and eateries close to all of the many tours and beaches are just some of the amazing things about this property. They brought in live music and buffets that were amazing. The beach club suites were amazing. Having a kitchen, a living room, and a washer and dryer. We’re also amazing amenities.

This property is on the pacific coast inside a very large, gated community that contains other exclusive properties. Service is excellent. We literally had Tucans nesting a few feet from the room.

Fantastic pool and extremely well-kept property
