Afar Magazine "Tucked away in its own little world, a 20 minute beach walk north of the laid back surfer town of Puerto Viejo, Hotel Banana Azul is a little piece of heaven." Full review
Lonely Planet "Removed from town, this romantic hotel sits astride a blissfully tranquil black-sand beach." Full review
The Telegraph9.0
"Banana Azul is the ultimate romantic retreat on Costa Rica’s diverse and funky Caribbean Coast." Full review
Fodor's "Hardwood furnishings are abundant at this gay-friendly (but by no means exclusive) hotel at the secluded far end of Playa Negra." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Hotel Banana Azul is perpetually improving and tweaking its intimate 14-room retreat on a dramatic—and private—stretch of black-sand beach." Full review
Frommer's "Features such fabulous touches as koi ponds with turtles in the middle of the ceramic-tiled common lounge. One of the top draws here is the Azul Beach Club, which serves food and drinks on the beach" Full review
