Amazing service in the hotel. Everyone is delighted to welcome guests. It's so close to the beach. Right next door is a public beach with many locals that gives this a great, authentic, welcome feel. Happy hour is half price drinks, too!

We loved this property. Lush vegetation covers the grounds set upon the beautiful beaches of Hermosa. Our room, 403, overlooked the pool and was right by the reception desk. The staff were helpful and friendly and always willing to assist. The food was very good at the restaurant and the spa, our massages, were amazing! Only downside, the wifi in our room was bad. The air conditioning cools the bedroom but there is no cooling in the living space so it got warm during the day but we spent little time in there. I would absolutely visit again. We really enjoyed our stay!

We are here now and it is lovely! Room 201 (Junior Suite) is on the second floor and has a beautiful view of the pool and gardens with a giant tree coming right out of the deck that was full of about 10 howler monkeys in the morning. Very tranquil and nicely appointed property with lovely staff and good food. We enjoyed a long walk on the quiet beach in the morning before it got hot - there are some nice tide pools in the rocks at the far end that are worth exploring. Don't hesitate to book a couple of nights here!

¡Qué maravillosa noticia! Me alegra saber que llegaste bien y que ya estás disfrutando de tu estadía en Hotel Bosque del Mar. La habitación Junior Suite suena espectacular, especialmente con esa hermosa vista de la piscina y los jardines. Y qué experiencia más increíble haber visto a los monos aulladores desde la terraza. También es genial saber que la propiedad es tranquila y bien equipada, y que el personal es amable y servicial. Me encanta que hayas disfrutado de un paseo por la playa en la mañana y que hayas explorado las piscinas de marea en las rocas en el otro extremo. ¡Gracias por compartir tu experiencia y recomendación!

Really beautiful hotel nestled in the trees right on the beach. Fantastic food for a very reasonable price. Great happy hour!! Staff very helpful. Love the two eating areas open to air. Beautiful pool, although not huge but there are not many rooms so it has a very cozy feeling. Felt very safe for my kids to go around alone. Loved the pool table. Our room was spacious, although nowhere to hang wet stuff despite a huge bathroom. Balcony and comfy beds. The beach is pretty with calm clear water. The hotel does not have jurisdiction over the beach however, so there were lots of other people set up with loud music and dogs that barked and barked all day long. I could even hear them barking at the pool. Other than that, a really beautiful setting in nature and highly recommend. Also- had other restaurants that were a short walk down the beach.…

It sounds like you had a wonderful experience at Bosque del Mar Hotel! The setting of the hotel nestled in the trees right on the beach sounds absolutely gorgeous. It's great to hear that the food was fantastic and reasonably priced, and that you enjoyed the happy hour. It's always a plus when the staff is helpful and accommodating. The two eating areas that are open to the air must create a lovely atmosphere to dine in. Even though the pool may not be huge, it sounds like it still has a cozy feeling due to the limited number of rooms. Thank you for sharing your experience and recommendation!

We stayed in an oceanfront suite which was quite amazing. The check-in was very easy and included a refreshing welcome drink. Our suite was spacious, clean, and well decorated and the bathroom and shower were very, very nice. The grounds are impeccable while retaining a natural lush feeling all around. We dined at the restaurant a couple times and were very pleased with the menu choices and superb service. There are also several other restaurants within walking distance along the beach! So bottom line is if you stay in Playa Hermosa Hotel Bosque del Mar can't be beat.

¡Qué experiencia increíble tuviste en el Hotel Bosque del Mar! Es genial saber que el registro fue fácil y que incluso te dieron una bebida de bienvenida refrescante. La suite frente al mar suena impresionante, especialmente con una decoración bien cuidada y un baño y ducha agradables. También es genial saber que los terrenos son impecables y conservan una sensación de exuberancia natural en todas partes. Y para rematar, el restaurante también fue una gran experiencia, con opciones de menú satisfactorias y un excelente servicio. Además, hay varios otros restaurantes a poca distancia a pie de la playa. Es excelente saber que recomiendas el Hotel Bosque del Mar como una opción inmejorable para hospedarse en Playa Hermosa. ¡Gracias por compartir tu experiencia!

This was a great hotel. Staff is very friendly. The beach area is beautiful. Rooms are large and comfortable. Some areas are weathered however it was a great stay. The restaurant is decent. There are a couple of restaurants within walking distance but a car would be helpful as the hotel is kind of isolated.

I'm glad that you found the rooms to be large and comfortable, despite some areas being weathered. It's good to know that the restaurant was decent and there were a few other dining options within walking distance.

WOW! The views from the ocean front suite are incredible! We got to watch a group of monkeys right off the deck! Hotel has private parking which is great for those with cars. All the bars and restaurants are a quick walk across the beach. Roy who checked us in was incredible and the welcome drink was delicious. Only complaint is the air conditioning in our room broke the first night. They repaired it quickly, but it broke again later the same day so the room got quite warm at times, the unit appeared quite old and is probably due for an upgrade.

This Boutique Hotel on the beach is the most beautiful hotel these world travelers have ever visited. The rooms are designed and decorated in modern style. We loved the atmosphere of many national and international guests. The bar and restaurant offered great food including vegetarian options. The beach and ocean were perfect for morning walks and swimming-- the bay tempers the wave action so children can safely enjoy the ocean.

This resort is so perfectly tucked away on the beach you could walk past not realizing it was there. A jungle oasis on a lovely swimming beach with fantastic staff. Quiet rooms except when the monkeys come calling very early morning. Great food, daily happy hour, superb spa treatments. Playa Hermosa is as quiet as it gets for beach locations. If you want hustle bustle go 10k further south to Playa del Coco!
