Martino Spa and Resort

This place needs a little TLC to bring it back to it's former glory, but we really enjoyed our stay. It's located right across the street from an animal rescue facility that is chock full of local, Central American and animals from other places, too. They have breed and release programs in addition to their rescue programs. There are a couple of nice places to grab something to eat within a few hundred feet on the same side of the road. The coffee shop has amazing coffee and other drinks. It's also got some of the best sandwiches you'll ever eat. The resort has spa facilities, an awesome pool and looks really classy. The room we had was a junior suite and it was really nice with comfy beds. Breakfast is partly buffet, but they cooked our eggs to order and were surprised when we didn't want the rice and beans (we've been in Costa Rica for 21 days and wanted a break from the rice and beans). The hotel is very close to the airport (SJO), too.

Staying at this property was definitely better than staying at a local hotel in San Jose. It is very convenient to the international aiport and has an attractive and environ. Rooms are normal to large, comfortable, and there is an exceptional pool, restaurant, and bar right on the property!

Highly recommend this hotel !! Amazing pool, staff and facilities. Would also suggest a must visit is the animal sanctuary across the road , they do a great job for animal conservation and deserve support. Thank you!

I had a great experience with the staff. This website (Agoda) was challenging to work with, but the people at the hotel were exceptionally friendly and responsive while I tried to work through my problems with Agoda (the booking site). The hotel grounds are beautiful, the pool is nice, and the included breakfast was delicious.

Top place to stay before an afternoon flight. Lovely hotel, great pool, good food and staff and 15mins from the airport. Wildlife reserve opposite too so plenty to do - would definitely recommend
