I loved the chill vibe and super friendly staff here at El Reinas. The room was cleaned as often as I wanted, the floors do tend to get sandy from many beach walks so they came almost daily to sweep at my request. The food is cooked made here and is delicious, Italian and local dishes are generously portioned. I tried the fettuccine con pesto, truffle pizza and many cansada dishes all excellent.

This is a super nice place with only 4 rooms. It is super charming close to Playa Grande. The staff are super nice, and we had the best breakfast of our whole trip there with birds visiting us as we ate. There is a private walkway to the beach. The room is really nice with a balcony to enjoy the nature. There is a nice coffee machine in the room as well which is a big plus. There is a cafe attached to the place where you can have snacks and a coffee with beautiful views. Highly recommended.

    We can barely believe this amazing spot exists! For an affordable price, we had a comfortable and stylish stay in a beautiful location literally a minute's walk from the beach. Playa Grande itself was an ideal alternative to Tamarindo, where you can have the beach practically to yourself for the morning and hear the crickets chirping as you enjoy the hotel pool in the evening. We also had wonderful service and conversation with all the staff. We highly recommend it!
