Hotel Guanamar Resort


Guanamar is located on Playa Carrillo on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica. The hotel is located on one the most beautiful and unspoiled beaches in Guanacaste, where the exotic fauna and flora remain untouched. Sitting in the hotel's bar, you have a great view of spectacular sunsets and smooth waves washing up on the white sand beach.

Carillo Beach lies on a beautiful, nearly semi-circular bay with a lovely white sand beach that streches for over a mile. Surrounding the bay are rolling hills and steep mountains covered with tropical forests protecting the beach from strong winds and swells. A rock reef on the north end of the bay acts as a natural barrier, providing calm waters ideal for water sports such as scubadiving and ocean kayaking. Crystal clear water, white sands and lush tropical vegetation... a perfect commbination.

The Carrillo beach has been awarded the "blue flag" as one of Costa Rica's cleanest beaches and the hotel Guanamar has received an award by the Costa Rican tourism ministry for its advance environmental practices and community involvement.

Plunge into a sunny variety of resort activities: horseback riding through dry tropical forests, boat excursions to uninhabited islands, nature walks alive with monkeys and exotic birds, tanning on the generous deck of the outdoor swimming pool (piña colada within arms's reach), or trying your luck in the casino.

Just a stroll away discover the Costa Rican paradise of your dreams, Carrillo Beach! A picturesque white sand harbor tailor-made for surfing, snorkeling, catching rays, building sand castles, and taking romantic sunset walks.

Imagine your room overlooking one of Costa Rica's most beautiful beaches. White sand, blue ocean and majestic palm trees set the stage for a memorable vacation.

Guanamar is a three star hotel featuring 41 spacious and comfortable rooms. 15 guest rooms are deluxe rooms with a spectacular view of the Carrillo Bay and the rainforest surrounding it. All rooms are equipped with air conditioning, satellite TV, direct dial phones, security boxes and a balcony or terrace.

Guanamar lies secluded atop a hill on the south end of the bay. Its perfect location offers the visitor a spectacular panoramic view of the harbor and its beautiful beach from almost anywhere on its grounds. Charming, typical palm thatched roofs top the original villas nestled on the higher slopes of the property, hardwood decks invite leisurely walks around the pool, bar and restaurant ares.

Guanamar has a bar, full service restaurant featuring local and international cuisine with a focus on the fresh seafood delivered daily by the local fishermen. A typical Costa Rican or American breakfast is included in your room rate and for your convenience we offer room service.

The hotel's Open-air Bar and Restaurant offer one of the most memorable views of the Carrillo bay and beach. Sitting comfortably about 50 feet above sea level, the fresh Ocean breeze will awaken your appetite for our local specialties like our famous seafood salad, jumbo shrimp and fresh lobster. The restaurant offers a wide variety of dishes from pastas, to salads and various cuts of meat.

The sunset view from the bar is one of the most spectacular ones in the country and the ideal setting for a romantic evening sipping a Margarita or Pina Colada. With your cocktail, try our appetizers like fired squid and seafood brochettes.

Sunbathe or simply refresh yourself in the hotel's beautiful swimming pool. And remember, the bar is just around the corner and one of the attentive waiters will be around to offer you a wide array of tropical drinks.

Air, land, or sea transportation can be arranged. Private or commercial aircraft from San José make the flight to Carrillo Beach Airstrip in just 30 minutes. A 5 hour drive winds its way out of the Central Valley and through the province of Guanacaste. The 100 foot "Costa Sol" Tropical Cruise is also available for charters from the port city of Puntarenas to Guanamar.

World Class Sportfishing

Nowhere else in the world will you have a better change of tangling with Blue, Black and Striped Marlin, sailfish, giant tuna, record-size dorado, snapper, roosterfish and other game fish.

It is not unusual to raise 25 or more sailfish in a single day, and local boats every year report "Super Grand Slams" -all three species of marlin and one or more sailfish taken on the same day.

The luxurious Guanamar Resort is nestled along the shore of a quiet bay, protected from the heavy winds that plague Costa Rica's more northerly fishing areas from December through May.

Because of Guanamar's protected location, anglers catch fish year round with seldom more than a 30-45 minute run before the action starts.

Guanamar's fast, comfortable sportfishing boats are equipped with state-of-the-art electronics and tournament quality tackle. Captain and crews are expert in conventional and fly fishing techniques. We encourage anglers to release their catch.
