Have just returned from a trip where I saw multiple beaches on both coasts of Costa Rica, and Playa Conchal near Brasilito is one of the two best I saw. It is indeed as good as you have heard. The Conchal Hotel, run by the highly affable, highly helpful Simon, is in Brasilito, a five-minute walk from that beach. This... more

I am so glad that I chose the Hotel Conchal when I was in Brasilito. I stayed there for a week, and I found this little hotel very relaxing and friendly. It is a lovely setting, with rooms surrounding a pool, and a delicious breakfast was served every morning. Our host, Ginette, was extremely friendly and helpful to me and... more

We stayed at the small, 10 room Conchal Hotel for 9 nights this past August with our two teenagers. Beautiful place tucked in amidst beautiful landscaping. Incredible rancho with hammock to enjoy the nearby Howler Monkeys, iguanas, and birds. Both rooms were clean (we had a king, and the other room was two doubles) hot water, fans,a/c and safe in... more

We just got back from 5 great days at this hotel and it is highly recommended. From the moment we walked in, we felt at home and Simon was a gracious host. He even helped plan our trip via emails weeks before we arrived. The hotel is very nice for the area - everything was clean and well maintained and... more

Simon and his staff are to be commended on a great operation. Conchal is a very laid back experience yet there is plenty to do in the area. They even handled the booking for two nights at Arenal area hotels during our trip. All of our excursions and hotel rooms booked by Conchal were perfect with no problems. It's a... more

A charming elegant hotel, geographically well located for beaches, restaurants, and day trips to the diverse National Parks of the Guanacaste region, yet away from the hustle and bustle of the beach scene. The rooms are clean and comfortable, the courtyard and pool a wonderful oasis to repose and relax. For me, a feature is how Hotel Conchal is run... more

This was my first visit to Costa Rica and I feel so fortunate to have chosen Brasilito and the Conchal Hotel in particular as a warm weather retreat from the cold New York City winter. Two gorgeous beaches, Playa Brasilito and Playa Conchal, are just a quick skip down the road and offer up a wide range of beach activities,... more

My girlfriend and I stayed at the Conchal Hotel this past Dec/Jan for one week. Upon walking into the hotel, your first impression is that of a tropical oasis - the greenery, pool, rancho, etc., all work in combination to create this experience. We arrived late on New Year's eve and although Reception was closed, we were greeted with a... more

We stayed at the Conchal Hotel from Dec 29, 2007-Jan 3, 2008. I would highly recommend this hotel and I hope to return again very soon. The hotel is lovely with very clean rooms and a beautiful pool! Breakfast is served on the second floor of the rancho which also has a nice sitting area and a fabulous hammock on... more
