The pool area was great, but you cannot access Playa Blanca, so its name is misleading, the beach is far away an you have to pay 7000 colones for parking, so this is a hotel to stay at the pool but a beach one

We have stayed at Punta Leona numerous times but now they have shut off access to playa blanco as well as to the pools and restaurants. The continental breakfast for Arenas is good but used to be a lot better. It cost us $100 extra per day to have access to the beach and lunch at the club. We also had open exposed wires under our sink in the bathroom which was a little worrisome especially for electrocution hazards.

Hoye Arenas does not longer have an agreement with Punta Leona which means the only beach access is now Playa Mantas and you have to either pay the regular parking if you get any spot cause is pack during weekends or walk there from the hotel as is no longer offering transportation. Really Arenas just provides the pool and sells a closer location to the beach but no beach access at all. I’m not sure I’ll go back as least not during high season

THIS HOTEL IS SCAM ADVERTISING.! Do not fall for it Be aware. The hotel Does NOT have access to thewhite and most beautiful beach in the punta Leona property. We never stsyed at it as we were humiliated disrespect we by 2 of security guards on punta leona beach as we got there and were humiliated by not weAring Punta leona hotel bracelets thats the only has the access to this beach onnpunta leona property. We were with 2 kids 10 yo and the guard on punta leona beach harrased us for not having bracelets from punta leona hotel but having non acess allowed from.this hotel. They did not refubd us till then and we NEVER stayed at this hotel as per what happened on the beach that day, as I managed the same day to book punta leona hotel with its beach access. Do nNOT fall for this scam hotel advertising! Stay aware. The guard on punta leone beach offered us to walk 15 miles on the ocean back to thus hotel since he was humiliating us in front of our crying 2 kids and didnt allow us to even take thr bus back to this hotel....kids born in CR, spoke perfect Spanish and we did too. It never helped us to get a refund from this hotel as Expedia said the hotel never answered thrm what happened. Please DO NOT BOOK this place . Scam.
