Big bed, good room size, super clean, enough supplies for towel and toiletries, good guided information on stay, locker facility, good safety feature Decent size pool, not super clean but you can't blame nature for dropping 10 leaves a day into the pool

It was truely home away from home. Mar Y Posa has a beautiful garden and pool area. The rooms are all very cute and equipped with everything you need. Susan and Eduardo are the best hosts you can wish for. Everything was perfect and I was very sad when I had to leave. ♥️ thanks a lot!

“So sorry we only had 2 nights here. We would happily have stayed longer.”
I loved everything. It is such a beautiful, well designed accommodation. This was definitely the best place we stayed in out of 6 places we visited in Costa Rica. Our room was beautiful and a lot of thought had been given to what we might need, i.e., lounger cushions, wraps, bottles of water on arrival as well as more usual facilities, i.e., air conditioning and fridge. The bed was very comfortable. The garden and pool are awesome! Susan was so welcoming, friendly and helpful.

“A great place to base yourself to enjoy Playa Flamingo and Playa Potrero.”
Susan was a lovely host, sharing lots of tips and information with us. We enjoyed the pool and the room was comfortable - lovely big bed! Potrero beach is good for walking along and there’s a lot of restaurants to eat at - all within walking distance. Playa Flamingo and the Marina nearby are beautiful to visit by car.

“A beautiful and cosy complex surrounded by nature”
Surfside Mar Y Posa is beautiful. The rooms, the pool area and the surrounding nature & wildlife, was so beautiful! Susan went above and beyond assisting me with all I needed and her husband was a happy, friendly face tending to things around the cosy complex. I had a lovely extended stay and it was great value also!

this place is a 4 room hotel with an additional house for rent. It was close to everything in the small town and the people, Susan, Juardo, and Noemi were fantastic. There is a troop of howler monkies that occasionally stop by for a visit. all in a great little place for a few days
