The tiny hamlet of Jaco is located in the Pacific Coast province of Puntarenas, Costa Rica. It’s the ultimate hideaway for sun seekers and active travelers, with cinnamon-hued volcanic-sand beaches, lush green rain forest and verdant mountains. Surfers flock here from around the world, but families, and honeymooners also find much to love, thanks to the multitude of beaches, outdoor activities, dining, shopping and nightlife. Explore the Costa Rican rain forest by horseback, learning about the flora and fauna in this impressive eco-system. Take an ATV tour to beaches, remote villages and waterfalls. Try your hand at sport fishing, paragliding, sea kayaking or even bungee jumping. Spend an afternoon at the Pura Vida Gardens and Waterfalls, where you’ll find millions of plants, flowers and orchids from around the world. Zip line through the jungle, play a round of golf or take an aerial tram tour of the rain forest. Expert surfers will want to check out La Roca Loca and Playa Hermosa for a challenge.

Located in the Central Pacific region and just an hour and a half away from downtown San José, this beachfront hotel offers a premier experience in one of Costa Rica's favorite beach destinations. This all-inclusive resort provides guests with unlimited food and drinks, as well as exciting activities for all ages, outdoor swimming pools and tennis and volleyball courts.
This facility met my expectations and was budget friendly for the price I paid. Everything was clean and Covid ready. The staff was very polite and respectful. The rooms were just fine. Nothing fancy. Very nice swimming pool able to drive into town and have the Covid tests needed to return home and do some shopping

I'm writing this while enjoying a cold beer at the hotel's tiki bar an hour before I have to (sadly) go to the bus station and head back to San Jose. It's mid-July 2021. I have been at the Hotel Tangeri for a couple of nights. I stayed in a vila - nicely equipped with a full kitchen and a bedroom with two queen beds. The hotel staff is very friendly and accomodating. I had a problem with the AC on the first night, and told the office about it when I walked by on my way to breakfast (which is included and really good). It was fixed by the time I finished breakfast. It's right on the water with a great view of the beach. The pool area and tiki bar are great - if you're traveling with kids, they'll love the beach and pool areas. The property is well-maintained, and my favorite part are the iguanas, which are everywhere when the sun is shining - seriously, if you have a fear of lizards, you won't like this place, but they are fascinating. I had a salad for lunch yesterday and there was one begging just like a dog until the waiter shooed it away (which was unfortunate, because I was enjoying it). Jaco is nice - plenty of options for eating, drinking, and shopping within a few minute's walk from the hotel. The locals are really friendly, the food is great, the scenery is phenomenal, but the beach is kind of meh - I understand that there are many better beaches in Costa Rica, but this one is popular due to its proximity to San Jose. But I came here to eat Costa Rican cuisine, drink beer, read a book, and enjoy the Costa Rican sunset, so mission accomplished. There are other hotels in Jaco that are closer to the night life and activity (although like I said, that's all just a few minute's walk away), but if you're traveling with family, or if your goal is to relax, this is the place.

The room was basic but clean and big enough, it missed a kettle though especialky as no breakfast was served. Good location on the beach and 10 min walk from the center. Nice smaller pool closer to the beach, kids loved it. Definitely good quality/price.

The place needs renovation but the staff is five star and if the hotel is full or almost full then the guests make up for any defects the place might have. Then the ambience around the pool is first class. Everybody is happy once the party mood kicks in and you will have the time of your life. If you are the only couple in the pool you can get a complete tan but thats it. Drinks and food are good and cheap, but thats it. But if the pool is full you will want to return to this hotel every weekend.
