Hotel Martino Spa and Resort

The facility is definitely a private getaway within a large metro area. Very comfortable as an airport overnighter, and I've stayed here about 16 times over ten yrs. The staff is very friendly and efficient. The restaurant food is excellent!

I found the room to have a very low end sofa, not in keeping with the rest of the room. Okay to throw a suitcase on, but not something one would be able to relax on. Housekeeping needs to add face cloths to the bathroom linens, and some shampoo & conditioner would be much appreciated. The corridors have tiled floors and plastered walls, so any sounds transmit loudly through the building, including the accidental slamming of doors by guests or the wind. The room doors should have self-closures, rubber weatherstripping or some type of cushioning to absorb the impact and quiet the noise.

Great location - close to the airport and the Rescate rescue centre Lovely swimming pool, clean and refreshing Beautiful hotel grounds, populated by nesting birds and wandering iguanas Tasteful interior decoration Comfortable bed

Facilities were rather dated The selection at breakfast was rather small, and some of the food appeared to be a little off

Really excellent service, every staff member went above and beyond. Some of the best service we've experienced in Costa Rica. The food was great and the restaurant was really nice. The pool was huge and clean, though there wasn't a huge amount of shade. The gardens were lovely with lots of little bits of interest. There was a cart service to help us get our bags to our room and we were able to leave the bags we didn't want in the office. The bathroom was large and modern and the shower was hot and strong (like I like my coffee 😏).

The room itself was quite basic/dated and smelled musty. The beds were quite hard. . There were no tea or coffee making facilities. There isn't an airport shuttle. You need to book in advance to use the spa/sauna/steam room and there were no slots left. Top tip. Book when you reserve. Overall would recommend.

Buffet breakfast was okay - could have had more options Dinner at restaurant was very good but my Spanish is not great so I had an issue explaining that I wanted sparkling water with a lime wedge

Walls are paper thin in the rooms and was woken up at 545am by family next door with a baby

This hotel is like an old Italian estate. It has seen its better days but the grounds are beautiful and the pool is wonderful. The staff are great and the overall facilities fantastic.

Rooms could have been slightly cleaner but overall they were great. We found a few bugs in the shower but it is in an area with a lot of wildlife.

This hotel is very well located to the airport (20 minute drive) and yet very quiet. The grounds are beautifully kept and the pool is wonderful - even for swimming laps. The staff were most friendly and helpful. Nearby (1 minute walk) is a wonderful rescue center for wild animals and birds that is well worth visiting. I highly recommend this hotel.

The property and grounds are beautiful, and the pool is huge! It was such a nice, relaxing place to stay and the food in the restaurant was very good. It was very good value for the price paid.

It would have been nice to have a kettle in the room, but the staff was great at providing hot water when requested.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. The restaurant was excellent. The location was convenient from SJO.

Things were a little dated and needed a refresh, but it looked like they were working on it while we were there.

This was one of our best stays in Costa Rica. Large clean swimming pool, friendly staff, reasonably priced piazza and glass of wine. Great location to visit the animal rescue park, and the airport. Nice bar, pool table. Great value. Charming and warm decor, even though it shows signs of aging.

Nothing

The room was spacious. The restaurant was nice and breakfast was good. Facilities were very good and we enjoyed using the pool table, table tennis and table football. The pool was excellent. Staff were very helpful.

Wifi was a bit dodgy.
