“Great way to start the trip!”

We decided to stay at Sugar Beach for our first day in Costa Rica; we flew into Liberia and did not want to travel very far or do much the next day.

We decided to stay at Sugar Beach for our first day in Costa Rica; we flew into Liberia and did not want to travel very far or do much the next day. We drove via the Monkey Trail Road, and you'll definitely want a four-wheel-drive for that. However, once we got there, it was extremely relaxing. The room was huge, clean, and comfortable. There were iguanas and pretty birds hanging out all over the property. Best part, it's literally steps a gorgeous, uncrowded beach. At high tide, the water is great for swimming; at low tide, you can wander out and peer in the tidepools as you watch pelicans hunt. There's not much shade on the beach, but if you get hot you can pop up to the hotel's pool, which is right above the beach and is nice and shady. The restaurant is pretty good--not amazing perhaps, but good enough that you won't feel any need to drive out of town if you don't want to. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and the whole thing is reasonably priced. We met a group from New England who come down together every year, and have for about a decade, and I can see why!

“Wonderful rustic resort”

This is, by far, my favorite place to stay near Potrero. The beach is wonderful - warm water, very walkable sand. The pool is lovely and well maintained. But the food.... ah, the food! It is spectacular. There's absolutely nothing like being wakened by the howler monkeys outside your building at 5:… Plus

It is spectacular. There's absolutely nothing like being wakened by the howler monkeys outside your building at 5:30 in the morning. I LOVE THIS PLACE! We last stayed here in February 2019, (but the drop down menu doesn't allow me to enter that - sorry)

“Nice proximity to beach, nice lodging”

We were upgraded to a 2-story house for our family of 8 and enjoyed our accommodations. There was access to the beautiful beach right behind the house.

We were upgraded to a 2-story house for our family of 8 and enjoyed our accommodations. There was access to the beautiful beach right behind the house. The restaurant was reasonably priced although the food really was not very good and service was extremely slow. When we had excursions planned, we would have to wait close to an hour for ordered food to arrive and then eat in a dash so we could make our excursion. The staff was lovely and friendly.

“Very Cool, relaxing place”

The rooms are very clean and nice. The beach is quiet and beautiful and even a group of howler monkeys in the trees. We also loved the option to do yoga in the morning in the Yurt. The food could def use some work. The breakfast was nothing special and the dinner was overpriced and just edible.… Plus

The food could def use some work. The breakfast was nothing special and the dinner was overpriced and just edible. The bartenders make an excellent Margarita! I would suggest avoiding the food, esp if you have a car because there's several good places to eat on the other side of the playa.
