We enjoyed a great stay at the JW Marriott. We loved the private beach with sunset views from our oceanfront balcony that were spectacular. The beach stretches out for miles with almost no other people and great swimming. You can borrow bikes from the hotel and ride all around the area, including about 20 minutes to another beach that is even more expansive and private. The food and drinks are above average with good room service. The breakfast buffet was a daily highlight with so many fresh and local options. The location of this hotel means you are fairly remote, so you will be adding 30min in each direction and some extra $$ to go on any tours or to get to Tamarindo from the hotel, but that is why the beach and grounds at the hotel feel so private. There are lots of options for tours and they were all good experiences. We booked through our hotel, through online tour providers, and through a local guy named Erik G. Erik was great to work with, and we enjoyed 2 fun tours through him that were some of the highlights of our trip. We also really enjoyed the horseback riding tour through the hotel that ended with a ride on the beach. Overall, it was a great experience for our first stay in Costa Rica!

Nuestra estancia en JW Marriott Guanacaste fue muy decepcionante por debajo de nuestras expectativas, el check in fue demasiado lento y poco cordial de parte del personal. La habitación aunque amplia se nota descuidada muebles desgastados. El servicio de restaurante pésimo esperas por la comida una eternidad y la calidad no es buena. En fin no recomendamos

Visitamos JW Marriot fue muy decepcionante la habitación estaba sucia, con muebles viejos y toallas manchadas, llamamos y tardaron en resolver. Para la comida es un dilema tardas como una hora para que te atiendan poco personal para la cantidad de personas. En resumen es una lástima porque el Hotel tiene un bello entorno pero está por debajo de ser un resort de lujo dado lo que tienes que pagar. No regresaré, ni lo recomiendo.

We had a fantastic stay at the JW Marriott Guanacaste! Every meal we had was delicious, but our favorite by far was the food at the Rum Bar – highly recommend trying it out. The staff throughout the resort were all friendly and attentive, but we have to give a special shout-out to Elian at the pool. He was exceptional – always making sure we had cold drinks and tasty snacks. He was always checking on us to make sure we were okay. We also really enjoyed the included bike tour, which was a fun way to explore the area and even spot some monkeys in the trees! Check-in was smooth and easy, but unfortunately, check-out was quite slow. After a long wait, we ended up just dropping off our key and didn't receive an itemized bill, which was a bit inconvenient. Overall, though, it was a wonderful experience and we would definitely come back!

We had a wonderful experience at the JW Marriott Guanacaste. The resort is beautiful, the location is terrific, and the staff is incredible. Ariel at the front desk, Jeanneth at the breakfast buffet, and Alfredo at the valet stand all went above and beyond to ensure we had a terrific trip. We'll be back!

Great room, views, activities and especially service. Friendly and attentive staff. Whether you want to trek into the surrounding nature or just relax at the pool or on the beach, you can do it all here. The resort definitely lives up to the JW Marriot name.

Spent a beautiful awesome 4 nights / Sara here last week! The resort is located in a HUGE private property and is a 10 min ride from the entry gates! The beach is absolutely gorgeous with clean white sand. ! Very private attached to the hotel and LOVED waking there ! A multi pronged leaf- shaped pool adds to the beauty of the atmosphere of course! The pool bar and grill were great and service by the poolside was excellent! The rooms were comfortable and clean with the balcony overlooking the ocean ! A WORD OF CAUTION! Do NOT leave balcony doors open ! RACOONS come into your rooms for candy and snacks etc ! Staff were courteous, friendly and helpful! Karin who was housekeeper for us was excellent too !

Desde el momento de la reservación hasta la salida del hotel recibimos un trato excelente de parte de todo el personal, siempre atentos a cada detalle, con una excelente actitud y disposición para que no nos faltara nada y nos sintiéramos muy cómodos. Una felicitación especial a Edgar quien se encarga de servir las bebidas y comidas alrededor de la piscina, un muchacho súper atento siempre pendiente de cada detalle, esforzado y con una actitud muy positiva y alegre, al igual que don José Antonio el encargado de las piscinas quien nos ayudó con paños y sillas para estar más cómodos y cerca de todo lo que necesitamos para pasar unos días muy agradables. El hotel impecable, muy limpio, ordenado con unos jardines espectaculares muy bien cuidados. La comida deliciosa, variada y con ingredientes muy naturales. Es un hotel pet Friendly. Realmente fue una experiencia maravilloso y fijo vamos a volver.
