Hotel Amapola

Hotel Amapola, in the centre of Jacó

Amapola is a garden hotel in the middle of Jacó, 200 m east of the town hall and about 500 m from the beach. The rooms sit around tropical gardens and a big pool, so it feels calm once you are inside the gate, and the town's restaurants and shops are a walk away. It suits families, groups of friends and travellers who want Jacó on foot.

Why we choose it

• Walk to everything. The beach, restaurants and shops of Jacó are all within walking distance, so you do not need a car in town.
• Room for bigger groups. Apartments and Villas sleep up to 6, and Standard rooms and Junior Suites sleep up to 4.
• Long pool hours. The pool and its bar are open from 8:00 to 22:00, and there is a casino on site for the evening.

Rooms and views

The Standard rooms look over the tropical gardens and sleep up to 4, with a terrace on the ground floor or a balcony above. The Junior Suites also sleep up to 4 and give more space.

For families or friends travelling together, the Apartments and Villas sleep up to 6, which keeps everyone under one roof.

On the property

The pool is the heart of the hotel, set among the flowers and palms, with a pool bar for a cold drink in the afternoon. Margaritas, the restaurant, is open from 6:00 to 22:00, so an early start for a tour or a late dinner is no problem.

There is a spa for a massage after the beach, a pickleball court, a jacuzzi and a casino. Pets up to 15 kg are welcome, which is rare in Jacó.
