10/10 Excellent
"Absolutely extraordinary! My stay at the Costa Rica Marriott Hotel Hacienda Belén was exceptional from beginning to end. Everything—the beautiful property, accommodations, service, atmosphere, food, and hospitality—exceeded my expectations. The resort itself is absolutely gorgeous and has such a distinctive Costa Rican character. I loved the beauty, tranquility, and attention to detail throughout the property. The staff made me feel genuinely welcomed and cared for at every turn. Everyone I encountered was warm, professional, attentive, and accommodating. I travel extensively and have stayed at hotels and resorts around the world, so I recognize exceptional hospitality when I experience it. Costa Rica Marriott Hotel Hacienda Belén absolutely delivered. There was honestly nothing for me to complain about. Everything was extraordinary! I left relaxed, refreshed, completely satisfied, and with wonderful memories of Costa Rica. This is a property I would gladly visit again and recommend without hesitation. Five stars all the way! Thank you for an unforgettable experience. Pura Vida! 🇨🇷"
