This place was great. The cabins were very nice and well kept,the beach is maybe 30 meters from the cabins, and they have a restaurant/bar on location. The food at the bar is great and they make everything from scratch. The owners, Rick and Lori, are awesome. They were extremely helpful in telling us how to get to and from... More

We were told about this place from a passer-byer and went we arrived we couldn't believe how nice everything was! We just stopped in, not planning to stay, but noticed how friendly the staff was just decided last minute to stay the night. It was so inexpensive for the two of us - and our cabina was so cozy and... More

We stayed at Sol y Mar for two nights. Our cabina was really nice. Steps from the beach. Quiet, clean and comfortable. The food was delicious and the bar a lot of fun. Get there by water taxi from Golfito. Looking forward to going back. More

The low season rates for the cabins was a pleasant surprise, and we actually didn't find better deals in the rest of our trip along to southern Pacific coast of Costa Rica. Rick, Lori and the rest of the staff were friendly and very helpful at all times, and even though we only stayed two nights, we were sad to... More

Stayed here with my best friends and we had a blast! This place actually gave me the idea to move to CR! Rick and Lori are the coolest hosts and they make your stay at Sol Y Mar incredibly fun! They know the area, they know everyone, and whatever you want, if its possible they make it happen. It is... More

I have stayed at this location for 4 out of the last six years. I have read the reviews. I love this place! Ok Rick and Lori are just a little off beat but they have have always provided a great stay. The cabins's are dated and rough, just what I'm looking for. The beach is outstanding, where else can...

Playa Zancudo has to be one of the most beautiful beaches I've visited and walked... and I loved the laid back atmosphere of the small town and the people I met along the beach or along the street. However, as good a deal as Sol y Mar is (and it is), Lori, the owner's s/o has a lot to learn... More

I had no idea that this guest was dissatisfied. No complaints were made during 2 previous visits and a 3rd booking was made to return the following week, although that last reservation ended up as a no-show, and we were left with an unoccupied cabin for 3 nights. I must have upset this former guest by chastising her over the... More

Fantastic location in sleepy Zancudo where you look out at the sea from the porch of your cabin. Watch picture perfect sunsets from the lively bar (sports on TV and good live music once in a while) where your friendly hosts (Rick and Lori) and the lovely Karla will make you delicious cocktails or serve you ice-cold beer. Big tasty... More
