We used this place to break up journey to Matapalo. Little bit away (2kms south of Dominical) from town and strong surfy vibe…which is great…place leads on to Dominicalito a very pleasant beach which has a great beach break on full tide. Beach here not for beginners unless you just want to flop about in shallows…which is good…but do be... More

Our family of 2 adults, 3 kids (6, 9, 11) stayed for a week and wished we'd stayed longer. Unbeatable location. Sandra and staff were so very helpful and accommodating in every way. Rooms are exactly as pictured on the website. Tropical surrounds. Clean rooms. Could use a little update on some of the cooking implements, but overall, no major... More

We had a wonderful time at Costa Paraiso! The location is beautiful and relatively close to "downtown" Dominical. The hotel is very clean and inviting. We were in the Coconut Room and it was very spacious, extremely comfortable, and quiet! The staff were very friendly and the food at the restaurant was delicious! My only complaint is that we had...

We stayed last month for three nights in "The Toucan Nest" room. The hotel is in an ideal and quiet setting directly on the ocean -- about a three minute drive to restaurants and shopping in Dominical. The grounds and pool have great views of the ocean crashing on rocks. The restaurant served delicious food and was convenient. The staff... More

Let me start this by saying I am a firm believer of tripadvisor reviews - i booked my entire Costa Rica trip using them to help make my hotel decisions. I am not a novice traveler and I am not someone that complains just for the sake of complaining. We stayed here for 2 nights at the end of Feb... More

Costa Paraiso is a relaxed and friendly experience and a wonderful place to spend time around the pool, go for run on the beach next door or head off to surf on one of the 4 beaches from a 5 minute drive to no more than 15 minutes. Just finished a 8 day trip with buddies of mine and enjoyed... More

Just arrived today, Feb 28/2012, visiting again at Costa Paraiso after our last trip here in Aug/2011. The staff are amazing, taking care of every little detail. Restaurant serves food that rivals that of high end restaurants in a major city, rooms immaculate, high quality beds and linens, rooms cleaned impeccably every day. How they offer this level of service... More

We stayed in the pelican's roost in February. There are five units (3 buildings) and the hotel was full the entire time we were there. The thing I liked best was there is so much room and different seating areas that we never had to "share" with other guests. I had a hammock for the entire day and was able... More

Just returned from a wonderful Costa Rican vacation and our stay at Costa Paraiso was one of the highlights. Can't wait to return. The staff, including Sandra and Pamela were helpful (with transportation and upcoming vacation plans), friendly and funny. The room was perfect: clean and comfortable with a small kitchenette and lovely view of the grounds and sea. The... More
