Some of best beaches on Pacific side.
The Manuel Antonio park was a highlight. We particularly liked the beach. After having explored the coast from Manuel Antonio to Puntarenas, there is not much point going swimming elsewhere other than in M.A. with the exception of Jaco for the waves (surfers).

Avoid this area
Roads are horrible, We stayed there to visit Tortuga Island for the day and planned to take ferry across to Puntarenas to stay at next hotel in Manuel Antonio Park. Isla Tortuga was beautiful but we were told by boat driver he would return to pick us up at 2 and he didn't show up, officials had to call boat company from Parquera to make arrangements for our return. We arrived back safely to our car then drove to the buy ferry tickets around 4:30pm, there was a line up. We were next to drive on ship but were told that the ship was already full, many cars lined up behind us with very disappointed people. We had to turn back and drive around to our destination It took us about 8 hours to get around to Manuel Antonio Park. I would avoid this area.People from this area just don't get it.

Miles of beaches, just turn into town and get off the highway.
If you are traveling along the highway and had thought you may want to stay in Puntarenas but changed your mind as you drove by think again. The view from the highway gives the impression of a port town with no beach. But this is not the case. There is miles of beautiful beaches. Turn off the highway and go into the town.

Puntarenas is a great location from where to start many excursions - Monte Verde, Guanecaste, and the ferry trade from Puntarenas is a wonderful way to go.

Ojochal is a hidden gem in Puntarenas, I could say you can find there the best restaurant in Costa Rica: Citrus. French food with a local flavor by the hand of an creative chef. There are also two french patisseries in town you will certainly be amazed of. Head to Parque Nacional Ballena and enjoy a whole beach for yourself.

I just stayed there one night to take the ferry the next morning to Paqueras, travelling around Costa Rica for a while, you realise that Puntarenas is a place of passing and not staying there. Maybe i needed to stay longer to see the town but seeing the streets, shops and bars was enough for me, after coming from total nature it's quite industrial place.

Puntarenas is very dirty city.
Puntarenas is very dirty city. I can't believed tourist see the trash on the street and on the beach. They say that it is ecological in Costa Rica in parks and vegetation area but why it is not cleaned in Puntarenas especially by the ferrys. Why the government do not take care of this problem? The ticos are very friendly and nice contrariais. They helped us to find the hotel.

Puntarenas could and should be a beautiful city by the sea...
Puntarenas could and should be a beautiful city by the sea but isn't. It is run down, dirty city with homeless people sleeping under trees, asking for money and picking thru the garbage. There is garbage and dog droppings all over the beach. It's scary walking the streets in the middle of the afternoon. We ate a couple of the restaurants but most places served the same thing.

Great location! 2 mn from the beach. Plenty of restaurants, shops, bars around. The hotel is very peaceful, decorated with taste with a nice pool and a beautiful garden. We had a big room on the first floor with garden view. The staff was very nice and helpful. Definitely a place to recommend ! It is also walking distance to the bus stop to San Jose and the bus line Puntarenas Quepos (Parc Manual Antonio) is right at the end of the street.

THIS IS ACTUALLY A REVIEW FOR PUNTARENAS BACKPACKERS, they moved me because there was no wifi in my room when i specifically asked for it. The room before i moved though was pretty dismal, musty and not really a hotel, just some rooms around some plants and some hammocks. Bed was comfy Good wifi Close to beach
