Nice quiet beach town, with just enough to do.

Nice quiet beach town, with just enough to do. Good surf but inconsistant small waves in Palm Beach near our hotel when we were there. Crowded near the main town and surf break 1 mile away where waves are definately bigger. It's a strong beach break, so not great for beginners and quality was not always so consistant. Can be dangerous, no lifeguards.

Playa Grande is gorgeous wide and long sandy beach, very natural. There are spots for beginner and advanced surfers and is suitable also for families with kids. There is only one bar or buffet on the beach, but a beach club and few hotel restaurant are near by.

I stayed at El Reinas in Playa Grande for 5 weeks and loved every minute. I didn't rent a car or golf cart. I walked 15 min. to soda and veggie stand once a week for essentials. I went to Tamarindo via walking south on the beach for 40 minutes and taking water taxi. If you aren't able to walk either rent a car or plan to call taxi. Taxi from PG to Tamarindo is $15usd.

We wanted a quiet place to celebrate our anniversary and Hotel Cantarana was just that! At times, we felt like we were the only ones staying there. We loved that it was so close to an amazing beach that we walked every day for sunrise and again for sunset. At times, we felt we were the only ones. We had the pool all to ourselves. There is a restaurant on site and a couple others close by that are AMAZING! The beach is incredible . . . soft, white sand! Andy, at the front desk, was the best! She greeted us with a warm smile and was so helpful. She helped us to arrange a sunset cruise which was spectacular! We surely will be back!

Playa grande was such a relaxing place.

Playa grande was such a relaxing place. The beach sunsets were amazing! Took an estuary tour with Luis right off the beach - private tour for 2 was only $70 and we saw crocodiles, monkeys and amazing birds. Tamarindo is a fun day trip (taking the water taxi, or asking to be dropped off there after the boat tour). There is a cool food truck court at the end and behind the beach that has an iguana walking about. Tamarindo was nice if you like lots of people and lots of bar and food choices but playa grande was so much more chill of a spot. Loved it and will be back! Cantarana cafe had the best coffee and almond croissants and dinner upstairs was really good. Servers for breakfast and dinner were fabulous! The Tortuga was a great spot - with the most delicious fish bites I’ve ever had! Cafe Mar Azul was so much fun- Sunday night entertainment needs a reservation. Such a good price for amazing fish dinners.

Playa Grande is perfect for running or walking on the beach, however not for swimming, snorkeling or floating. On the other side of Playa Grande (crossing the river) there is Tamarindo, a crazy town full of tourists with its own long beach. If you are looking for a laid back place, Tamarindo is NOT where you want to be. Lots of traffic and tons of people walking in the streets and hanging around. Can't imagine what is like in high season. Stores have beautiful clothes but they are pretty expensive. Definitely a surfing town, everyone walks with a board under their arm...lol.

Sophie the French owner created a beautiful garden with lovely cabanas. It was peaceful and idyllic. Breakfast was very nice. Pool was lovely. She upgraded us which was very kind. The outdoor bathroom was very romantic. The most beautiful beach Playa Grande was 5 mins by car. We also loved playa conchal in the morning 20.mins away. Lolas cafe was great too about 1 hour away. She gave us good advice. We saw monkeys play by the pool up on the trees which was magical. Loved it.

If you love The Grateful Dead this is the hotel for you. The owner has created this themed hotel and passionate about the group. Great entertainment in the evening. Breakfast included.
