Fodor's Expert Review Los Sueños Marriott Ocean and Golf Resort

Herradura, Puntarenas, 61101, Costa Rica

This mammoth multimillion-dollar resort in a palatial colonial-style building has a gorgeous view of Herradura Bay and combines modern amenities with traditional Central American decorative motifs, such as barrel-tile roofing and hand-painted tiles. Rooms here have marble baths, wooden furniture, and tiny balconies. Be sure to get one with an ocean view, or you'll be contemplating condos. An enormous pool with islands and swim-up bars, a Ted Robinson golf course, and various diversions are designed to keep you on-site and entertained. The Sibö Rainforest Spa is one of the best in Central America.
