This hotel was really good for what we needed it for. We needed to be close to the cruise ship dock and the staff were very accommodating for us. They have a secured covered parking for our car which we appreciated. Breakfast was very basic but very good, and we ordered from the restaurant the night before and the food was very good.

The ambience of the resort was incredible. Due to complications in travel plans, we didn't arrive until 10pm. The man working stayed late for us in order to let us in past closing time (we had someone call ahead). After a full day of flights, rental car problems, construction and travel (including an unexpected ferry ride from Puntarenas at the last minute) with 2 girls, 8 and 10 years old, we were feeling exhausted and a little defeated. After all of this, arriving at La Perla felt like magic! The host put the outdoor lights on for us and the girls splashed and played in the cave-pools until almost midnight (luckily, there were no other guests at the time to disturb). They explored all of the little alcoves, finding doors to various rooms up cave-like stairways. The room was so much better than expected, spacious and clean with cool carved bunk beds and 2 double beds as well as a little kitchenette. I can't say much about the area as we had to leave early to catch a 7:30am ferry out, but the resort itself was absolutely fabulous!!! The kids LOVED it and I think it was the favourite room out of our 3 weeks in Costa Rica. It also had it's own little outdoor terrace with private swimming pool. So cool in every way!

It is an excellent value for the money. Lori was charming and helpful and takes pride in her business. My room was impeccably clean, and the ample traditional breakfast was filling and served with attention to presentation. The fruit salad was fresh and perfectly ripe..

Location was great. Right near the start of the path to the waterfall in Montezuma. At night you can hear the river and the ocean. We booked a “junior suite”, had a double bed and air conditioning. A/C worked great. It’s about a 7min walk into Montezuma along the waterfront (flat terrain walk). We loved this, as Montezuma can get very loud with music and party’s at night. We were close by but far enough away to enjoy the peacefulness. The place is well maintained and very clean. The breakfast was excellent. The people who own and work at La Cascada are very nice and welcoming. This is among my top 2 spots to stay in Montezuma. I would definitely return.

This is basically a cruse ship harbor and not much to do in low season. A few bars and stores open. A lot of tour is not given due to no crusie ship arriving in this time of the year. Also, extreme weather resultet in that most tours from Puntarenas was cancelled. If you are planning a vaccation, you should choose another city such as Jaco or Uvita. Very easy to take a 2-3 hour bus shuttle from San Jose, terminal 7-10 for a few dollars.

While the hotel and staff were lovely and helpful the common verandah didn't allow for much privacy. The hotel was also at least 5kms from the rest of the town with no shops or restaurants nearby, so a little isolated. But the beach just across the road was a bonus.

Plenty of restaurants, activities to explore, etc. For me, It totally depends on your hotel. I’ve stayed in Puntarenas many times, but my trip this week to Hotel Puntarenas Beach was, sadly, my worst hotel experience in Puntarenas.

We just needed an overnight option, because we missed the ferry. For that we were happy to find something not so expensive. For that case was it a good option. I wouldn’t stay for longer holidays in Puntarenas and this room ;) Buuut it was the best and comfy pillow during my whole stay in Costa Rica - Memory Foam <3 And the stuff was really nice
