Reviews of Curiol Boutique Hotel & Lounge

The open space at the entrance is nice, you have plenty of sofas and tables to relax. Staff is nice and really helpful.

The pool wasn’t clean. The room wasn’t nice as pictures, no wardrobe or place to unfold your clothes, the room service is not available so no one is cleaning your room during your stay. Lastly, to get some breakfast (even if you are the first one to order) you need to wait around 40 minutes. This morning it took them 35 minutes to deliver us some coffe. Overall we think we paid too much for the service offered.

My son and I traveled on a three week journey around the Nicoya Peninsula in the Guancaste Region and absolutely loved everything we experienced. We purposely saved this boutqiue hotel as our final and last spot and I am so glad we did because it was the PERFECT way to spend our last 5 nights. The location, grounds, boho charm meets costa rican excellence. Javier and his staff ( if you even want to call them staff everyone is like family and treat you the same) took such good care of us and made us feel so welcome and attended to. The even had a sunday pool party with a DJ which was family friendly too and it was a blast! I met so many new people that way. The food ( especially their sushi) was amazing! We love this place and can't recommend it enough! We are coming back in October!!!

Literally the only thing was Mosquitos, but they are EVERYWHERE and it was no fault of the hotel/location/amenities or anything. We just dealt with them everywhere in Costa Rica, but often we were told it was because we were so sweet :)

Breakfast awesome! Welcome cocktail was perfect! Music and vibe around the pool was Ibiza-style! Nice!

The bed was noisy and not 100% comfortable

We enjoyed our 6-night stay at the Curiol villa. It was a great place to explore all of Guanacaste Province and just a short walk to the beach. The breakfast and facilities were excellent.

Curiol has outdone themselves when it comes to the Boho chique vibe. The setting is beautifully done! Great lounge areas, beautiful pool. Super friendly staff.

We couldn’t quite put our finger on what felt off at first, because it’s clear they’re really trying to create a great experience. But eventually, we realized it felt more like an upscale hostel than a hotel. The rooms are quite basic and very dark, and while the outdoor bathroom isn’t a problem in itself, the mosquitoes definitely are. The staff is kind, but communication can be tricky if you don’t speak Spanish. Housekeeping only happens if you request it, breakfast is very minimal, the music is loud like you’re at a festival (although they change it if you ask for it), and there’s no Wi-Fi in the rooms (too spotty).

One of the bar attendants was very nice

Bathroom is outside which they do not make clear and you get eaten alive by mosquitoes any time you need to shower or use the toilet. WiFi is very slow. Some sort of liquid that looked like bird feces dripped onto our pillows and sheets. Rain leaked under the door. Breakfast took over 30 minutes to make.

All I can say is that I wish we had stayed here for more than one night. The property was stunning. So boho, so chic! The drinks, the food, the staff, all phenomenal. We were a little apprehensive about staying in a tent, but they come with fans and a little air conditioner! It's quiet, and the staff were kind enough to take our music requests! Would absolutely recommend to anyone passing through Potrero.

The service was amazing “Nacho” made our stay extraordinary!

This is a neat hotel surrounded by trees providing shade from the heat. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Some stinky smells to remind us we are in Costa Rica!

The staff was so friendly, attentive, and very accommodating. The food was delicious. Our lodging was perfect for our family of 5 to feel comfortable and spread out with 2 bathrooms, a kitchen to make meals, and 3 bedrooms. The location was a perfect jumping off place for several different destinations. We will definitely return!

Due to the weather being windy and rainy in the afternoons, the pool had leaves most of the time, but the staff did an excellent job of cleaning it regularly.

- Lounge area and pool - Nature and vegetation - Bar staff - Nice breakfast in general

- Cleanliness - Lack of room amenities (body lotion, coffee, etc) - Tent zippers not working - Due to open “day pass” to no hotel guests, there was some disturbance during the night.

Charming place, beautifully appointed, lovely staff, great sushi

Rooms were spacious and clean with AC, liked the outside shower m. The pool area and restaurant are really nice

nada

The Curiol Hotel is a real favorite! It’s located slightly off the beaten path, so it’s not caught up in the craziness of the main street, yet it’s less than a 10-minute walk to the beach. The decor is absolutely stunning! You can easily spend the whole day by the pool under the trees, in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. The room was very comfortable and had air conditioning. The pool is beautiful! The staff is kind and welcoming.

The food at the restaurant isn’t good. I had to send back an omelet because it was drenched in oil or butter. The sushi isn’t great either (too greasy, too much fried stuff!). Watch out for mangoes falling from the trees onto the rooftops — they make a crazy loud noise!

The hotel room establishment was beautiful ! The staff were really helpful and friendly regarding activities and any questions we had on the room.

The staff were slow and forgetful of our orders in the pool area. It happened a couple of times.

The breakfast was INCREDIBLE, the food they offer in the restaurant is really delicious. Nacho, Scarlett and all the staff were really friendly and helpful. Really cool pool with lights. The place is a 10/10 in general

The bath seemed like it was recently painted. So the paint washed out with the water.

Original and relaxing oasis. Beautifully tucked under the palm trees. Amazing pool and awesome service. We will come back!
