Los Suenos Marriott Ocean & Golf Resort

Magnificent property! Huge wrap around pool, waterfalls all around the property, beautifully landscaped grounds from the entrance and throughout. Several dining options including a huge breakfast buffet. Valet parking, spa, golf — all the amenities and top notch service. Would definitely stay there again.

All good except the kids club This was our second stop in Costa Rica. The resort is very comfortable and clearly tailored for American visitors. While you don’t quite get the authentic Costa Rican vibe, everything is well-organised and convenient. We’re from Europe, so the atmosphere felt a bit different to us. The staff were all very kind and welcoming. Our biggest issue was with the kids’ club. It’s not really a traditional kids’ club – they offer kids’ activities three or four times a day, each lasting around 30 minutes. To be clear, I wasn’t looking to leave my daughter there all day, but it was a bit frustrating that we constantly had to check when the activity ended. Once, the staff member even walked her back to us by hand after the session went a bit over time – my husband had stepped away to take a quick call as the 30 minutes had already passed. It felt a bit awkward. That said, the kids’ club staff were lovely. I believe they were simply following the guidelines set by management.

For the price, it's a noisy room, you can clearly hear conversations in the next room because of a connecting door. The bathroom does not have extraction, so aromas and steam are share in the room easy as it has barn doors... so privacy is not the best either. The glass doors leading to the pool are stuck, almost impossible to slide... and found food leftovers in the room as I arrived. Late checking was weird too, a few minutes past 4pm is too late.
