Fiesta Resort, on the beach at Puntarenas
Fiesta Resort is a large all-inclusive resort on the Pacific coast at Puntarenas, set along a dark volcanic sand beach in the Central Pacific. It is built for easy family holidays: big pools, gardens, buffet dining and something on every evening. It suits families with children, groups of friends and anyone who wants a resort that takes care of everything, within easy reach of San José.
Why we choose it
- Easy for families. It is family friendly, with a big main pool complex and family junior suites, and the kids are kept busy all day.
- A pool for the grown ups. The adults-only Relax Pool gives parents and couples a quiet corner away from the splashing.
- Close to the airport side. Puntarenas is the nearest Pacific beach to the Central Valley, which makes Fiesta handy at the start or end of a trip.
Rooms and views
The Ocean View rooms look over the Pacific, fully or partly, with one king or two doubles. The Junior Suites come with a pool view or a garden view, and there is a Junior Honeymoon Suite over the pool and gardens and a Family Junior Suite for parents and children.
The Fiesta 1 Bed and Fiesta Double rooms, the second over the garden, are the standard choice. There are also Accessibility Preference rooms with one king or two doubles, which is not something every beach resort offers.
On the property
Fiesta is a resort built around water. The main pool complex spreads through the gardens, with shapes, islands and waterfalls, and the adults-only Relax Pool is set apart for a quieter afternoon. The beach is just beyond.
Meals are mostly at the buffet restaurant, with La Macarela as the premium restaurant for a dinner out of the buffet routine, and a snack bar by day. There is a shop on the property, tennis, and entertainment in the evenings.
From Puntarenas we can arrange a boat day to Tortuga Island, a river trip on the Tárcoles to see crocodiles, or a day at Carara National Park for the scarlet macaws.
Location and getting there
Fiesta Resort is on the coast at Puntarenas, on the Gulf of Nicoya. A Facebook page of the resort puts it about 60 minutes from San José, and it is a natural stop between the Central Valley and the beaches further down the Pacific. See more about Puntarenas.
