Fodor's Expert Review Chantel Suites
Playas del Coco, Guanacaste, Costa Rica
On a hilltop, this vacation rental property has vibrant Mediterranean-style rooms, apartments, and a luxurious two-bedroom penthouse—all with ocean views. Every room has a private patio and creature comforts like air-conditioning, TV, Wi-Fi, safes, and coffeemakers. Rooms are clean, comfortable, and spacious, with splashes of color in the artwork and bedding.There are private kitchens in the apartment and penthouse. There’s a tiny rooftop pool, and the attached Lookout oyster bar serves the best food in town. Rates are extremely reasonable, and even the apartments and penthouse are a real bargain with living rooms, kitchens, and dining areas. The hospitable staff are always on-site and can arrange tours and airport transportation. A five-minute drive from the closest beach, the hotel is at the top of a steep and narrow road not suitable for walking.
