We were two couples who had driven over 200 hot miles that day. We had reservations after reading favorable reviews. The woman manager told us that there would be music that night, so she gave us a chance to back out. We were told that there would be no breakfast and there was a $10 price reduction. We were tired... More

Friendly owners, pleasant though shabby room with 2 rocking chairs and a hammock on each porch. Small pleasant pool, nice bar with a river and ocean view. Worst excuse for a pizza ever. Small town where everyone knows everyone.

We had a great stay, the price was reasonable and the staff was helpful. I stayed there with my seven month pregnant wife and two and half year old boy. We frolicked in the pool after a day at the beach. The beer was cold and the pizza was tasty. No complaints total pura vida.

I have stayed here more than once and would recommend it to anyone. Staff is helpful and courteous. Pool is great. Hotel is secure with 24 hour personnel. George, the iguana, is getting on in years, but there seem to be three or four offspring ready to take his place and greet the tourists who stay in this fine hotel... More

Stayed there many times and will continue to. The owners are the nicest people in the world and very helpful. It is close to everything in town. The staff is helpful as well. The bar restraunt has great food and the best pizza in Costa Rica.

This was a bit of a bummer. When we arrived, the owner tried to let us pay more than we agreed by email and finaly when we could show the email (yes we brought it what he didn't expect) he was convinced. The rooms are nice but the owner is spending more energy to have fun with his friends and... More

We just got back from a week at the Rio Lindo. It was our 5th time in Costa Rica and we never had a better time. The staff made us feel immediatley welcome and at home and helped us to fully appreciate the local attractions. We saw beautiful beaches, waterfalls, rode horse and ATVs and had some of the best...

Sure, the hotel itself is decent. It's in a good location and has the amenities you'd expect at its price point. I suppose you could manage quite fine during your stay...if you don't have the highly unpleasant experience of encountering the owner. My boyfriend and I spent a few nights at Rio Lindo and wanted to extend our stay in... More

Brian and Kathy make you feel like part of their family when you first meet them . Besides the two of them , their family consists of meat eating Iguana's....haha. The rooms are very clean and air conditioned, unlike many places in Costa Rica. They have Satellite TV, suicide shower heads in some rooms and regular shower heads in other... More

We stayed 10 nights at the Rio Lindo Resort during our month-long trip to Costa Rica. This is our second month-long trip to Costa Rica, in a row, so we have seen and stayed at a lot of places. I love Costa Rica overall, but there are things that don't appeal to me in some places. First of all, Dominical... More
