Hotels in Guanacaste, Costa Rica

Guanacaste is a province in northwest Costa Rica, famous for its Pacific beaches and active volcanoes like Rincón de la Vieja. The climate is divided into two seasons: the dry season from December to April brings highs of 95°F (35°C) and is perfect for surfing at Tamarindo or sunset catamaran tours in Papagayo Gulf, while the green season from May to November offers cooler 85°F (29°C) days and cheaper rates for hiking the volcanic mud pots at Las Pailas. You can choose between lively coastal towns like Playas del Coco for nightlife and fishing charters, or head inland to Liberia for a taste of cowboy culture at local sabanero festivals.
