AI Summary
The accommodation excels in customer service, spacious and clean rooms, varied breakfast options, and direct beach access. However, the mention of menu prices is not clear, and the summary could be more concise.

What a gem this place is in the quiet little town of Playa Grande. I stayed for 5 weeks the staff here are super friendly and very accommodating to my requests. The room was clean and quiet. The ambiance on the premises is fun and surf town casual. The food here is also amazing. I had both the homemade fettuccine and truffle pizza. Both delicious and akin to eating in Milan. The cansado breakfast/lunch is also very good here, especially the fish. There are 3 or 4 other food options within walking distance for a change of pace. The location of El Reinas was also great with a foot path just across the road straight to the beach in a 2minute walk. I've traveled to a lot of beach towns and this beach was by far the best beach I have ever been on. It's about 3 miles long with abundant flora y fauna. The surf is perfect for those catching waves, and even calm enough at times for some SUP fun. A good 40 walk South on the beach gets you to the water taxi for a visit over to Tamarindo. I found El Reinas to be a super find and an incredible bargain for the location.

Positive - The location is absolutely perfect, making it very convenient. - The staff is super friendly - The outside area is pretty Negative - The rooms are very small, so there is hardly any space for luggage. - Music plays non-stop outside. There is no quiet corner.

Candlelit ocean front dining, delicious authentic food and a sweet attentive crew! We enjoy having the “Gallo” for breakfast and our New Year’s Eve dinner was amazing. Sunsets out-front on the beach are a MUST- watch for the “green flash”. World class surf and nurturing yoga classes set in a unique space. My 7 year old son and I had a fabulous experience. Thank you!

I recently stayed at El Reinas and had a smooth experience from start to finish. From the moment we arrived, Vladimir warmly welcomed us, making us feel right at home. Vladimir was always available to answer our questions, offer great advice on local attractions, and made sure we had everything we needed. A big thank you to Vladimir and the entire team for making our stay unforgettable!

Overall amazing experience. I think El Reinas and Plays Grande in general might be one of Costa Rica's gems. The rooms are perfect, the location is ideal and every single staff member is amazing (I can't stress this enough). Other hotels should take example from this place.

Beautiful location, welcoming and authentic atmosphere, amazing food at the restaurant! We will be back to stay with them next year! Also, we can not find a trip advisor profile for Jonathan, who runs the estuary tours from the hotel, but this was the highlight of our trip! He was so passionate and knowledgeable about the ecology of the park! We LOVED him!

We grabbed a quick bite to eat here and were pleasantly surprised! The food was the equivalent diner-style comfort food, just what we needed. But the real star was my smoothie - it was incredible! They do offer takeout which is a great option when hanging out at the beach
