room was comfortable, AC quiet and effective. Access to beach is fantastic, a very short walk. Shuttle and taxi easily arranged by staff. Restaurant good with others nearby. Staff throughout very helpful.
We stayed in a Villa and I would highly recommend them. They are steps away from the main hotel and resturant but you get a private pool that is only shared with 3 other villas. Housekeeping kept our villa clean the whole time. You are only steps from the beach. It is really the best location to stay in Playa Grande.
This was our second year coming to the Rip Jack villas and it was an excellent stay. Hotel staff was very kind and courteous. Rooms were clean and kept clean daily. The food in the hotel was delicious; we’re still debating who among us had the best meals. This year we traveled with a larger group and everyone had a great time. We will definitely be back next year!
Friendly staff, clean and cool room, a little oasis with some shade and sun at the pool.
Every meal at the restaurant was delicious… lots of options if you want to eat healthy and embrace Pura Vida vibe or indulge in a great burger. Cocktails were excellent!
Also just steps away from the beach!
We had a great stay at Rip Jack Inn and wish we could have stayed longer than one night. We stayed in a bungalow with our family of 5 and it was very comfortable and had a private tropical feel. The food at the resort was delicious but expensive. My kids had a great time surfing in the area.
Convenient to the beach. Clean rooms. Really good food and happy hour.

The location and vibe was perfect for us! The room was simple, neat, clean and they honored our request for a room with the couch. The bathrooms could use an update or refresh. They are dated. The restaurant was delicious and a nice surprise in this sleepy town. Staff was super friendly and accommodating. Took advantage of yoga which was great. The pools are very small but lots of lounges, hammocks, ping pong and a great lending library! Will definitely return to this sleepy but fabulous town!
The property had a nice layout and was an easy 2 minute walk to the beach. The restaurant and bar were good and had several options, but was a high price.
Great hotel with great location. They are in the process of updating the property and building what, I think, are private condos, so the overall property is improving. Staff is friendly and fluent in English. Had one run in with an issue due to a door malfunction, and while it was not a positive interaction, in the end, it was resolved amicably. Overall, wonderful location, great people, lovely restaurant with great food and exceptional staff. A great, great property. Critiques would only include small pools, and there are only two; one has been relegated to private access with the property renovation, but Expedia description does not represent that; however, you’re at the ocean. Do you need a big pool? Great place for access to world class waves. Loved my stay despite a one hiccup.
My wife and I with a few friends visited RipJack in Playa Grande for a weekend get-away. It was perfect for what we were looking for. The beach is beautiful. The resort is clean and it has a safe feel. The restaurant has delicious food at regular resort prices. And the restaurant staff is great especially Renaldo. We will be staying there again.
