“Beautiful, Tropic Feel and Relaxing”

Reviewed 17 June 2013 NEW

We found this hotel on Expedia as a last minute deal because we got to Costa Rica a couple of days earlier than when our time share in Jaco started. It looked beautiful and it was! In it's day it was probably a 4 or 5 star--now more like a 3 1/2 star. It cost us $20 in a cab... More

“Nice place to stay for night or two but deffinately on the first floor”

Reviewed 20 April 2013

My husband and I visited the hotel this year. At first we really liked it - big rooms, everything from wood, big pool. Sadly most of the big trees are cut, which makes no sense but anyways.. After we switched our first room, because of no warm water, we were suited into another one. Our biggest problem were the rats... More

“Would not recommend!”

Reviewed 14 April 2013 via mobile

We stayed here coming back from an amazing Costa Rican vacation and this hotel is my only complaint. They stuck us in the back of the hotel when they obviously weren't full. They put us in a room with two twin beds (we are married) and refused to move us. We were in the very back - if you get... More

“I expected more...”

Reviewed 12 April 2013

We stayed at Resort Martino on the weekend of my birthday. The hotel is nice and it has a good location. The grounds are nice. However, I expected more out of this resort. The shower in our room was really really small. The towels in the room are hand towels, they only give you large towels if you ask for... More

“Good value, good service”

Reviewed 8 April 2013

We have stayed here a few times and for the price, it is an excellent option. It is about 15 minutes to the airport so good for the start and end of a trip. The rooms are very good for Costa Rica standards, clean, no bugs, comfortable beds, hot water, internet. The style in the rooms is really attractive, feels... More

We had our wedding at Hotel Martino in 2013 and the entire operation from the wedding side was great. The food was amazing, the service was great and the grounds were gorgeous.

“Don't go for the "resort and spa"”

The was a disappointing end to a great 2-week trip through Costa Rica. Our plan was to have an extra day at the end of our trip to "rejuvenate" before flying back to US. The workout gym and jacquzzi was much touted in hotel website and materials, but both were disappointing. Yes, the grounds were pretty. even though was bit... More
