Lia Hotel Jaco

Lia Hotel Jaco

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was very cute, clean and nice, our room had a great balcony overlooking the pool and was very comfortable. All of the staff were amazing. The restaurant/bar was a little pricey, but the food and service was excellent. Walking distance to everything in town, with several other great restaurants, a grocery store and a convenience store all within a block. I wish we had a little fridge in our room, but oh well, we can’t have everything. Highly recommend for a nice, romantic stay. "
