"El hotel esta super cerca de la playa en una área muy bella exuberante de vegetación, picina super limpia, personal super amable. El desayuno formidable y un reconocimiento especial a Carlos en el lobby y a la muchacha de limpieza por habernos localizado lugo de salir porque había dejado documentos y tarjetas de valor, nos devolvimos y todo super ... super recomendación."

"We had such a wonderful time on our stay here. The host was great and very responsive before and during our trip.The house was perfect for our group of 5 people and the air conditioning was extremely nice (and worked well the entire trip). Our kids loved having the pool to jump in during the hot afternoons as well. Everything worked well (laundry, pool, a/c, kitchen supplies, etc.). We were also within walking distance to the grocery store and beach and restaurants."

"Pictures are accurate. Great view over Pacific. Quick access to Dominical for supplies and dining. Access from main highway is a 3-minute drive on somewhat steep and partially unpaved road. Very doable, especially with 4-wheel drive. We had a few question during our 10-night stay and the management company was easy to reach and responded quickly. We would absolutely stay there again."

"The house was excellent— beautifully decorated and well equipped. The owner and property manager were kind and helpful! They aren’t kidding about needing a 4-wheel drive. It’s steep! This was the perfect place to come home to after a long day of exploring the region. We loved it and can’t wait to come back! Thanks for a great time!"

"The suite was much larger than we expected. Host was very responsive. While the suite is located beside a main road we did not notice road noise when we were inside the unit. The caretaker on site was very helpful with sorting out a taxi service for us. There is a supermarket across the road & the center of Dominical is a 5 minute walk away."

Tropical Sands Dominical Eco Inn

Tropical Sands Dominical Eco Inn

10/10 Excellent
"Note**** They are a cash business or they take Zelle (I missed that upon booking). This is a very charming, well-maintained, and secure property. We initially stayed in a cabina without air conditioning, but after the first night we upgraded to a room with A/C, which made our stay even more comfortable. The staff were outstanding—friendly, attentive, and excellent with communication throughout our visit. Our room was consistently clean, and the quality of the linens and towels was especially impressive. Amenities are minimal, so if you’re looking for features like a pool or in-room TV, this may not be the right fit. However, if you value a simple, clean environment with thoughtful, personalized service, this is a great choice. The location is very convenient: there’s a restaurant just across the parking lot, and the beach is only a 3–5 minute walk away. You’ll also find plenty of nearby restaurants, bars, and a grocery store within easy walking distance. We didn’t have a car and had no trouble accessing everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again in the future."
