The La Marejada Hotel was a great spot for my 10 day vacation. I decided not to rent a car and just relax in the Playa Grande area and taking a cab every now and then when needed. The owners Gail and Carli were very proficient on the phone and over email making reservations and arranging a cab from the... More

We made a good choice staying here. We felt welcome and the small hotel was nicely kept. The reviews below mine are spot on.

Playa Grande is a quiet surfer area with a great beach. La Marejada is one of three hotels right by the beach (two minute walk to the beach on a path through a protected area for turtles). Very clean rooms, basic (no TV), good A/C, comfortable beds, shower had little pressure. Very peaceful and relaxing. Easy drive to Tamarindo and... More

My wife and I stayed at La Marejada Hotel for a few nights during our stay in Guanacaste. The owners, Carli and Gail, were fantastic. They responded promptly to a few issues we had, and also helped set us up with a turtle tour, surf lessons, and transportation. The location is probably about as good as it gets in Playa... More

We stayed here in February 2012 for 5 nights. After the long drive from San Jose we were absolutely delighted to arrive at La Marejada. The room was clean and bright with a lovely stone shower. We spent lovely lazy afternoons in the garden near the pool. Gail and Carli are the nicest hosts you could ask for. The place... More

La Marejada Hotel sits in a little cluster of hotels with Rip Jack Inn, Playa Grande Inn and Ranch Provado (although RP appeared closed) about 100 yards off the beach. Each hotels offers food and drinks and hotel patrons are free to mix-and-match, eating and drinking in the bar/restaurant as they like. Playa Grande is a premier surf location so... More

My husband and I stayed at the Marejada last week and I can't recommend it highly enough. The staff is very friendly and helpful, the rooms are comfy and clean. The pool is shady and relaxing. The food was excellent. It is just a few steps from the beach and a few other small hotels so you can have options... More

Guaranteed relaxing time. The owners are great hosts, and the Mar Bar has some of the best food in Playa Grande.

My boyfriend and I stayed at La Marejada this past week and it was absolutely wonderful! Both Gail and Carly were super nice and very accommodating! We gave them a list of things we wanted to do while in Costa Rica and they set everything up for us without any problems! The hotel itself was very clean and comfy, and... More
