People are super friendly, rooms are big and clean, food at the all inclusive package is totally worth it. There are 2 main restaurants where you can have à la carte food and they have good options and variety. The beachfront advertisements are for real, you literally walk 20 steps to the beach

Rooms were very nice and clean. Staff was wonderful very friendly and quick to provide whatever was needed. This is smaller resort very quiet and great place to relax. The location was great, good beach and within short walk to shopping. It is somewhat remote so 1 hour plus ride from airport, but worth the drive.

My family of four, including my two boys ages 4 and 7, had an amazing time at Margaritaville. We had access to the most beautiful ocean with gentle waves that were fun but still felt completely safe for swimming with my boys. They had a blast crashing into the soft waves. The pool was another highlight. It is a great size and never gets too deep, which made it absolutely perfect for our family. The staff was incredibly sweet. We always felt well cared for and welcomed. At no point did we feel like we were bothering anyone. The food was mostly good with lots of options to choose from. I will say that when ordering, it helps to be specific about how you like something prepared. One day the tacos were amazing and the next day they were a little soggy. Another standout was how clean everything was all the time. Our room was beautiful, and I always felt safe. There is also so much to do nearby, which made the trip even more special. We would definitely come back and will be reminiscing and missing this beautiful place in amazing Costa Rica.

Clean room, comfortable beds. Restaurant service was not very friendly. Also, bartender didn’t want to give us happy hour price on drinks although they offered happy hour. I had to tell him and he ended giving me just one drink at half price. Expensive food and drinks that were just mediocre.
