Everything about the Bungalows was excellent except the food and drinks. The room was fantastic and the front desk staff was very helpful and accommodating. They chased us down into the parking lot after we checked out to advise us we had an Expedia credit and they wanted to refund us the amount. Thanks for that. My only qualm was with the drinks and the food at the restaurant. They have a great happy hour deal on drinks by the pool in the afternoons. Problem is the booze is HEAVILY diluted. I finally ordered a martini as an experiment and it was so watered down I couldn’t even taste the gin. Which is basically all a martini is. Wild. We had dinner one night at the restaurant and it was mediocre at best. The seafood appetizer was frozen seafood in jarred pasta sauce. Our server brought out my wife’s main course and then asked me if I wanted to order something to eat after he had taken both our orders earlier. No big deal on the service as they were busy with a tour of retirees so I understand. But the food was lackluster. The chefs are obviously competent but they need to use better ingredients. No other dining options in the area unless you drive up to Samara, so they should really concentrate on improving the food. Once that is in play I would recommend Nammbu Bungalows without reservation.

Really nice hotel. Very spacious rooms. And lovely grounds. And easy access to a beautiful beach. A couple of nice restaurants in walking distance. Or an easy drive to Sámara for more options. Would have rated higher but they did not give any of the recognition for hotels.com gold - no room upgrade, no early check in or late checkout.

The property was beautiful and clean. The staff was amazing, friendly and accommodating to all of our needs. The food was absolutely amazing and reasonably priced. We stayed 3 days and were reluctant to leave the peaceful, comfortable and relaxing surroundings. The rooms were spacious and the beds were so comfortable. The views and sunsets were amazing! We will be back!

A. Hotel isn’t actually on beachfront. Down a path cross a street down the road a short walk. Beautiful beach when you get there. B. Expensive ocean view room has VERY limited view due to wall rather than balcony and room orientation. Must be standing to see tip of the bay. Room was large but spartan: bed, end tables with no lamps, two chairs, no sofa, blank walls, small built in, Coffee maker spit out moldy crud after 8 flushes with clean water. Told management immediately I was unsatisfied and said all ocean view rooms were like that and said they couldn’t make changes because I booked on Expedia. Friends had a double room for less than half the price that was nicer experience. C. Pool area was nice with a lovely bay view from corner of pool. Service was acceptable, dinner meals were very good, but never hot. Lunch varied meh to quite good. Breakfast buffet average . I have made multiple visits to Guanacaste and will likely do more research for better value next time.
