Byblos Resort & Casino, Puerto Quepos

This hotel is the way to go. After a great nights sleep in a very clean and comfortable room start your day with a great breakfast buffet. The young lady who was the hostess and waitress had a very good command of the english language. Food was good and the fruit was fresh. I think they keep some of the best coffee beans for the people in CR themselves. The owners a nice couple from Austin, TX. were very friendly and made you feel welcome. The staff had it together and kept the grounds looking great. The food was excellent and reasonable. If you take your computer along you have wifi connection to keep in touch with the folks back home. In the morning you watch the monkeys in the tops of the trees going to work (lol) heading west towards the beach. In the evening you see them heading back home. The casino was ok but not what you think it will be on US standards. The bar and game area is an attraction at night that will prove to be very entertainging. You won't be disappointed if you stay here.

Two friends and I stayed at Hotel Byblos for 8 days and had a WONDERFUL experience. The staff was extremely efficient, courteous and helpful. The food was excellent, the rooms were large, beds very comfortable, and the rooms were thoroughly cleaned every day. There were fresh flowers in our room daily. Everything was sparkling clean. Nearly all the staff was bi-lingual. If we needed information or suggestions, all we had to do was ask. The pool was beautiful, with a family of monkeys close by to entertain us. The complementary breakfast was wonderful each morning, including an ample assortment of the fresh fruit Costa Rica is known for. It was wonderful to walk to the other nearby shops and the beach. In the evenings the upstairs bar and casino hosted a lot of fun people! I definetly plan to return.
