Waste of Money, A nightmare, Definitely not 4 stars

Tobi A on Jan 16, 2025

The only good thing about this hotel is the staff. The workers are understaffed and working 18 hours a day and yet maintain a really good and kind attitude. They were always friendly and helpful and genuin...ely put their best foot forward. I hope the best for them. Aside from this, this hotel is a scam. Firstly, there are no ocean view rooms. I have attached a picture of the ocean view you will have paid extra for. When we checked in they assigned us a different room with a view of the pool. We informed them we paid for an ocean view room and pushed back before they agreed to change our room. We waited until 4pm for the “ocean view room”. When we got into the room, it was extremely dirty. We originally booked this hotel for 6 nights to celebrate our wedding anniversary but ended up packing our bags and leaving two days later. Our bathroom had mold, our bed frame had a suspicious stain. The couch in the room was gross. Our privacy curtain never closed fully so we never had privacy. We were locked out of our room multiple times because their key system kept malfunctioning. It’s the worst thing when you’re tired at night and just want to get to bed but you’re locked out of your bedroom and have to wait for a technician to come out. We saw other guests experience the same issue with their door so seems to be a mass issue with their key system. They pour chemicals from a suspicious plastic bottle into the pool while people are swimming. I’ve never seen a hotel do that before and I’ve stayed at so many hotels. The breakfast food was barely edible and tasted like something cooked the night before and then reheated. If you wanted to shower with hot water, it took forever for the water to run warm. Food takes a while to come out but that wasn’t a big deal for us because we were never in a rush. But if you care about fast and efficient restaurant service, this is not the place. All in all, this was not a 4 star establishment. It was barely an overpriced 3 star establishment. When we checked out, they said they could not refund our incidentals because their bank system is down and that they will refund it as soon as it comes back online. Only God knows when and if we will ever get that hold released. They said they will not refund us for the nights we did not stay but we honestly don’t care. We are just grateful we were able to leave and move into a much better hotel. My recommendation is to not to waste your money on this resort. There are much better resorts and Airbnbs in the area that are reasonably priced The location is convenient and the public beach it is near is really beautiful.

Thank you, Azura, for memories we will treasure for a lifetime.

My husband and I chose the Azura Resort in Samara, Costa Rica, for our honeymoon, and from the moment we arrived, it felt like stepping into paradise. The resort is a perfect mix of luxury and relaxation, ...making it an ideal home base to explore the beauty of Costa Rica. While some reviews mentioned slow food service, we’d encourage those guests to embrace “Pura Vida” – the Costa Rican way of life. Taking a moment to savor the breathtaking ocean views and the warm atmosphere; if you want fast food, may we recommend McDonald? The Azura offers an entirely different, much-needed pace that helped us treasure every single moment. The true highlight of our stay was the exceptional staff who made our honeymoon unforgettable. Each team member went above and beyond to ensure we felt special: -We have to start with Roxanna, who truly made our trip. Her warmth and genuine kindness set the tone for our entire stay. She greeted us each day with the brightest smile and an unmatched attentiveness that made us feel like the most important guests at the resort. She has an extraordinary gift for hospitality and creates connections that go beyond service, making us feel like family. We owe so much of our magical experience to her. -Jonathon was a gem, always ready with friendly waves and spot-on food recommendations that elevated our dining experiences. -Alejandro is the epitome of cool. Not only did he make us the best cocktails we’ve ever had, but he also tipped us off to a nearby spot where we saw wild monkeys—an unforgettable adventure. -We had so much fun at the bar with Jazmine, whose fun personality kept us laughing and enjoying some delightful local guaro. -Brenda and Hanisey were absolute sweethearts. Serving coffee each morning, they were patient as we practiced Spanish phrases with them and they brightened our mornings. -Axel and Danny were attentive and speedy waitstaff, ensuring our meals were served with care and a smile. -Lux and Wendy, the excursion planners, were incredible. Thanks to their expertise, we had two unforgettable adventures: the Sealife Tour, where we were lucky enough to see three whales and over 100 dolphins (your results may vary!), and the Adrenaline Tour, complete with zip-lining, hot springs, horseback riding, and tubing. -Finally, Roberto, our driver, doubled as an amazing tour guide. He pointed out creatures and sights we’d never have noticed and was a joy to travel with. We’ll miss him dearly. The Azura Resort in Costa Rica isn’t just a place to stay—it’s an experience. Between the stunning accommodations, delicious food, and remarkable staff, we couldn’t have asked for a better honeymoon. Translated into Spanish via google translate: Mi esposo y yo elegimos el Azura Resort en Samara, Costa Rica, para nuestra luna de miel y, desde el momento en que llegamos, nos sentimos como si estuviéramos en el paraíso. El resort es una combinación perfecta de lujo y relajación, lo que lo convierte en una base ideal para explorar la belleza de Costa Rica. Si bien algunas reseñas mencionaron el servicio de comida lenta, alentamos a esos huéspedes a adoptar el “Pura Vida”, el estilo de vida costarricense. Tómese un momento para saborear las impresionantes vistas del océano y el ambiente cálido; si desea comida rápida, ¿podemos recomendar McDonald? El Azura ofrece un ritmo completamente diferente y muy necesario que nos ayudó a atesorar cada momento. Lo más destacado de nuestra estadía fue el personal excepcional que hizo que nuestra luna de miel fuera inolvidable. Cada miembro del equipo hizo todo lo posible para asegurarse de que nos sintiéramos especiales: - Tenemos que comenzar con Roxanna, quien realmente hizo que nuestro viaje fuera inolvidable. Su calidez y amabilidad genuina marcaron la pauta para toda nuestra estadía. Nos recibió todos los días con la sonrisa más brillante y una atención inigualable que nos hizo sentir como los huéspedes más importantes del resort. Tiene un don extraordinario para la hospitalidad y crea conexiones que van más allá del servicio, haciéndonos sentir como en familia. Le debemos mucho de nuestra experiencia mágica. -Jonathon fue una joya, siempre dispuesto a saludarnos con la mano y a hacernos recomendaciones gastronómicas acertadas que elevaron nuestras experiencias gastronómicas. -Alejandro es el epítome de lo genial. No solo nos preparó los mejores cócteles que hayamos probado, sino que también nos indicó un lugar cercano donde vimos monos salvajes: una aventura inolvidable. -Nos divertimos mucho en el bar con Jazmine, cuya personalidad divertida nos hizo reír y disfrutar de un delicioso guaro local. -Brenda y Hanisey fueron un amor absoluto. Nos sirvieron café todas las mañanas, fueron pacientes mientras practicábamos frases en español con ellas y alegraron nuestras mañanas. -Axel y Danny fueron camareros atentos y rápidos, y se aseguraron de que nuestras comidas se sirvieran con cuidado y una sonrisa. -Lux y Wendy, las organizadoras de excursiones, fueron increíbles. Gracias a su experiencia, tuvimos dos aventuras inolvidables: el Sealife Tour, donde tuvimos la suerte de ver tres ballenas y más de 100 delfines (¡los resultados pueden variar!), y el Adrenaline Tour, que incluye tirolinas, aguas termales, paseos a caballo y tubing. -Por último, Roberto, nuestro conductor, también fue un guía turístico increíble. Nos mostró criaturas y lugares de interés que nunca hubiéramos visto y fue un placer viajar con él. Lo extrañaremos mucho. El Azura Resort en Costa Rica no es solo un lugar para quedarse, es una experiencia. Entre los impresionantes alojamientos, la comida deliciosa y el personal extraordinario, no podríamos haber pedido una mejor luna de miel.
