Beautifully designed and maintained boutique property on the ocean. Expansive sandy beach great for walking and exploring with exquisite sunsets. Pool is wonderful if surf is up. Nearby reef protected beaches for calm swimming minutes away. Food and service is top notch. Definitely will return.

We loved our stay at Azul Ocean Club. It was very quiet and relaxing. The staff are so friendly and attentive. The pool is wonderful, and there are many comfortable spots to lounge. The waves in the ocean are a little rough for swimming, but would be great for boogie boarding. The beach is very private and beautiful. Room was very comfortable.

Phone to room is not connected. Cannot call front desk. The Safe in our room … batteries expired after putting our passports and valuables in and could not get into the safe. No one at front desk. Called via WhatsApp. No message Center. Had to email. Still no response. Had to find someone to open it. Spoiled our day trip to see the Turtles migration in Ocional . Missed this once in a year phenomenon. The whole reason we booked this location. No coffee table to place any drinks, coffee or a plate. Awkward. Never have seem this before. TV did not work. No refund or expression of empathy. Manager would not allow later check out time even after all of this hassle. Very difficult to get to. Roads are treacherous. Grounds are lush. Only nice part. Never again. Ever.

If you want the soundtrack of the surf in the background of your next stay then the venture to the Azul Ocean Club is worth the trip.
A little off the paved path but well worth the adventure. The rooms are designed to enjoy the setting. The food is excellent, though a little pricey, and the beach is right there.

he place is beautiful and delicate, the staff was never present to see if we needed anything, the bar was not open during our stay and we went in for a Coke without permission thinking that we were obviously going to pay for it, when someone from the staff finally showed up We told what we did and she told us "that's forbidden" with a grim face and she immediately went through the dataphone, what we expected was for her to tell us "oh what a pity, calm down, you need something else, the bar opens at such a time, I offer you cocktails etc" and As a second point, there is no access to the beach due to garbage and logs.

Property was too isolated from shopping areas and did not have a place to purchase souvenirs, etc. Everything was hours away on very bad and bumpy roads

Nice facility at a beautiful location. Very quiet. Food and drinks expensive, and no other restaurants nearby, so almost no option but to eat/drink at the hotel itself.

Beware that to get to this hotel alone, is an adventure. You have to drive on 10 miles worth of dirt/unpaved/potholes to get to this hotel. The resort was nice, but our room was a little outdated. Also, expect bugs to drop in and out when you open the door. We went when it was raining and little critters kept coming in and falling on top of our beds.

My husband and I stayed here for 10 days on our first visit to Costa Rica. Azul Ocean Hotel was awesome! All the staff were amazing and so friendly! Being right on the ocean was like a dream come true! The pool was fantastic and so relaxing! All the grounds and rooms were so clean and maintained. My husband used the fitness room daily. I enjoyed relaxing on the beds listening to the ocean. The black sand beach was beautiful and we loved going there daily. The sunsets were absolutely gorgeous! Our daughter who lives in Nosara came to visit and stayed at the hotel for a few days in a suite. The food was great! If I had to suggest one thing, it would be if they could offer desserts at the restaurant…I have a sweet tooth 😊. I highly recommend this hotel! 😊

This was a nine day vacation with 10 people of our family. Had no idea the road conditions to get to the hotel 22 km of very bad dirt roads. Once at the resort grounds and rooms are great. There is absolutely nothing in the area to walk to and with 10 people taxis every time $100. Unfortunately they would run out of many items on the menu juice, bread, hamburgers, ribs, ravioli, lamb, etc. Most nights had to wait one hour to an hour and a half for our meal to come. I would not come to this resort again
