This is my 3rd trip to Balcon Del Mar. ( in the middle of a name change to Paradise Jaco Beach). I love that it’s right on the sand. It’s a small resort and by then end of the week you know the staff, they are wonderful. Breakfast every morning included is also nice.

The hotel is well located in front of the sea and near shops and restaurant. The staff was nice and helpful. The room was a bit old and not so comfortable.

Location is excellent - better part of the beach (in my opinion), right on the beach, and a short walk from the main strip. This was my second time staying there. It is an older hotel and it's currently going through some changes and renovations. Staff is friendly - no complaints there. However breakfast is no longer a buffet - and takes a long time to arrive. And you now have to wear bracelets like you would at a resort - except it's not a resort and those bracelets are annoying in the water and cause tan lines. We kept taking ours off. Also, one of our rooms had the glass for the shower installed on the wrong side so the water would splash everywhere when you shower - but hoping the renovations will address that.
