    I have stayed in Hotel Girasol, which is right on the beach in Jaco. Nice and clean AC in the bedroom only. Nice pool.

    I just stayed in AparHotel Vista Pacifico. On the hill overlooking Jaco. Absolutly Excellent!! Great owners, nice pool, nice rooms, AC in some, but on the hill it was always cool even when it was 90+ during the day. Here is their web address http://www.vistapacifico.com/
    Enjoy,
    Tom

    Consider staying in playa hermosa just about 5 kms south and much, much nicer. Lots of cheap options Rancho grande is a total surf crash pad rooms start at $10 a night, shared bath and maybe shared room but run by a great guy and on the beach.Costa neratel. 643-1942? is run by an Italian couple on the beach clean and friendly ocean view private room from $25-30 per night. The perennial surf hotel is Las Olas http://www.lasolashotel.com/ onthe beach best breakfast in town, rooms from $30 a night(duplex a frames or ask for the sky box:sits on top of the main building sit on your couch and watch the break!! They also offer day trips to dominical and surf lessons, those can be a little pricey but it’s a great crew!…or http://www.casapuravida.com mediterranian compound,tv,ac and great pool from $40 a night, owls nest is the best ocean view room. Can get surf lessons there from a 30 year vet. Tell milacent and wayne Keith sent you. Google the others for phone numbers. Avoid Jaco if you can unless…you like that sort of thing. Jaco is great to go out on the town one night or take advantage of it’s ammenities; restaurants,bank, doctors etc…but not very pretty…drugs, hookers and salty gringos looking for the latter. Check http://www.surfline.com for info on Dominical. Also if you stay in Hermosa it’s onlabout $5 bucks/5minutes for a taxi into Jaco.
