60's style motel directly on the beach. Very basic, and scrupulously clean, both rooms and pool, with a good bed. The courtyard has a gate opening on the beach. Our host, Bret, is warm and welcoming. It has no services, but it's only a short block from the main street and adjacent to an excellent reasonably-priced restaurant. We planned to stay for one night but ended up staying three. We will be back.

Owner was friendly. Place was clean. Pool nice. Property a bit run down. I booked by the advertisment of a restaurant on premises. Think: convenient am coffee. There was a good eatery close to the hotel for pm eats. Ok facilities for an overnight stay. Jaco itself is very seedy. Casinos, prostitution, etc. It is what it is. Will avoid this area in the future. All things said, had a good night's sleep, a/c, pool, hot water and a great dinner at Koko's.

Very comfortable bed. In the heart of Jaco, in a wild part of town. Not for a quiet stay. Perfect for enjoying the wild side of Jaco!

This property decided that my reservation had to be paid in cash. I cancelled my reservation and when I looked for alternative accommodation I saw that my room was being advertised at three times the price I was quoted. This was a trap.

Beautifully located directly on the beach in the center of Jaco. With great dining options right out the front gate and a vibrant nightlife. Yet Gallina de palo is a quiet place to view stunning sunsets.

We were greeted by what I assume was an unaffiliated drug dealer who said”you better get you heroine before I sell out”. The place is literally 5-6 garages in a parking lot. I can’t understand why Orbitz would put their name on this dump.
