Hotel Mar de Luz

My family and I stayed in one of the apartments and found it clean but outdated. The location is excellent, and the staff were responsive. We would have loved to have had separate pool towels, ice available, more kitchen supplies (such as paper towels), and shower heights that matched our own. Breakfast was adequate, but amazing for the price (6 USD). Service at breakfast was amazing. We would stay here again due to the space and the value.

Very nice hotel

Breakfast was very good and hotel staff were polite

This is a special place. Beautiful gardens Peace and serenity. The room was very comfortable. The pool fantastic. Breakfast on point and the staff very friendly. Highly recommend. Also walkable to everything in Jaco no problems. I truly enjoyed my time here.

Very very nice property with several pools and a hot tub.

Money does not go far in CR- Costa Rica. However this is the best value. Though this is not a western standard hotel, the real wood construction and real wood furniture give it a superior regal feel. The four small pools of all different temperatures suround by a tropical garden makes it a local resort. The water is chilled in some pools. At the highway a left turn across the bridge and first right street will bring you to the ocean (short pleasant walk). There is a raked beach, fancy restaurant, beach chair rental. Also across the bridge is the start of all the noisy restaurants, shops, bars and general activity of the town for 3km. The other direction (hwy right) is the quiet end town and bus station. The included local CR type breakfast was filling, however, you need to make reservation for serving time. The very weak internet did work in the rooms which is not true for most hotel in Jaco. The bus driver will drop you off at the Airport if you tell him in Jaco CR2920/person. Bus station is across Best Western. "Soda" full plate meals (six items) are CR4000 + 500 drink verses US$25 for 2-topping pizza more typical of town food. Food is not cheap, that is why the hotel breakfast has much more value than normal. This hotel has a prime location for exploring Jaco. It is the center of town. You will hear some night time outdoor music from near by, but it was not a big deal. Filtered water in the lobby. Our second floor 4 person room was big. All room have patios some were private like ours. Noise from the pools till 930pm not really a problem.
