“El Ocotal Beach Resort sits perched on a headland, granting superb Gulf of Papagayo views, though its spread-out layout can be a challenge. While the rooms are basic, wildlife abounds; I'd say the restaurant's expensive offerings are almost redeemed by the scenery. Though some may find the climb from the beach a chore, it's a fair price for such a location.”
