8.0 out of 10, Very good, (3 reviews)
"The rooms were very comfortable (best sleep we had on our trip to Costa Rica) and we loved the pool, the beach, the sunsets, and the star gazing at night. We were there with our family. It is a bit remote so good idea to bring games and snacks if traveling with kids. The restaurant on the premise is expensive but serves creative dishes by a Michelin star chef using local ingredients."

Top Marbella Hotel Reviews

JW Marriott Guanacaste Beach Resort

JW Marriott Guanacaste Beach Resort

8/10 Good
"The JW Marriott was the perfect weekend getaway. The staff were friendly, and very attentive to your needs. I opted out of the All inclusive package, but guests confirmed that several on site restaurants were up to standard and near worth it. The sandbar was convenient, and offered the opportunity to watch the World Cup. The property overall was spacious, and grounds were well kept. I’d rate the stay 8/10 since we found a live scorpion just before hopping in bed for our last night. The hotel staff didn’t not offer anything, but an apology. They stated it is the norm. Overall, Thank you. The scorpion is forever going to live in my thoughts."

The hottest months are usually March and April, with an average temperature of 27°C, while the coldest months are December and January, with an average of 26°C. The rainiest months in Marbella are October, September, June and August, with each month seeing an average of 390 mm of rainfall.
What is there to see and do in Marbella?
You won't need to spend big to get to know Marbella. You can budget for the top local attractions that interest you most, such as Tamarindo Beach, and then look for sights and activities that cost little or nothing at all.

How can I get to Marbella and get around on a budget?
Scoping out the transportation options in Marbella is a smart way to keep your trip affordable. The most convenient airport is 10.9 mi (17.5 km) away from the centre in Nosara (NOB). However, if that doesn't suit your budget, you can book a flight to Tamarindo (TNO), located 15.7 mi (25.3 km) away. Marbella may not have many public transport options so renting a car could be an economical alternative to explore the area.
