The Hotel is in the middle of important landmarks such as Parrita and Jaco; this makes it a privileged property for its proximity to the main tourist attractions in the area, such as the crocodile tour in Tárcoles River, the Carara National Park and the Punta Mala Wildlife Refuge where the olive ridley turtle nesting takes place.
In many sectors of the beach, streams flow into quiet pools that invite you to cool off and enjoy the water. In some sectors there are palm and coconut trees, as well as almond trees and even patches of forest, which offer good shade. Its amplitude and size make it very attractive for hiking, horseback riding or simply enjoying spectacular sunsets.
Playa Esterillos Oeste has been awarded the Ecological Blue Flag distinction; 4 stars, which is an indicator of the quality and safety of the beach, that is, there is a local Emergency Committee, which has placed signs in good condition indicating the presence of strong waves and currents. In addition, there are lifeguards and first aid, public showers and restrooms, a waste separation and recycling plan, a waste collection center, and compliance with a Regulatory Plan and natural area protection plan, according to ICT or MINAE.

Esterillos is a beach community in the Central Pacific, divided into 3 sectors, Esterillos Este, Centro and Esterillos Oeste, along a very picturesque stretch of the coastal road (route 34). They are part of the Parrita district, province of Puntarenas. The charming community is small and picturesque, with a relaxed atmosphere, where in addition to the residents’ houses, with its Catholic church, its school, and its soccer field, there are commercial establishments, hotels, stores, supermarkets, grocery stores, bars, and restaurants.
