Hilton Doubletree Cariari Resort

San Jose

Good to Know

Hilton Doubletree Cariari combines a convenient base near San José and Juan Santamaría International Airport with greenery, pools and several dining choices. Tennis, fitness and spa time bring a resort rhythm to the journey, while a golf course is a short walk away. Rooms, suites and event facilities suit different parties and purposes; confirm transport and golf arrangements.


Give the journey a poolside pause in Cariari

A pool surrounded by greenery gives Hilton Doubletree Cariari Resort an appealing role at the beginning or end of a Costa Rica journey. In Cariari, a short drive from San José and Juan Santamaría International Airport, the resort allows time near the city to feel like part of the vacation. You can settle into a spacious room, enjoy the grounds and give the travel day some breathing room.

Space for the journey

Modern furnishings and spacious rooms and suites give the stop a comfortable role between a flight and the next part of the journey. Compare Standard and Executive rooms with the two-bedroom Master Suite when shared living space matters to your party. A restful room helps these hours feel like a stay worth enjoying.

A resort day near the city

Swimming pools and lounge areas invite a slower afternoon, while tennis courts and a fitness center provide options when you want to keep moving. Spa treatments, massages and a sauna offer another way to unwind. The nearby Cariari Country Club Golf Course is a short walk away, a useful consideration for travelers who want to include a round of golf without moving to a separate destination.

An evening at the resort

The restaurants combine international and local cooking, with bars and lounges providing places for a cocktail or wine afterward. Dining at the resort can keep an arrival evening pleasantly simple, or become part of a leisurely day near the city.

Local excursions, meetings and celebrations

Versatile meeting spaces, technology and professional event-planning support serve conferences, weddings and celebrations. The concierge can assist with local excursions when your plans turn beyond the resort. Whether the visit combines business with leisure or marks the start of a vacation, greenery, recreation and dining give time in Cariari a resort rhythm.

What to weigh when choosing this stay

  • Convenience with time to relax: Cariari is a short drive from San José and Juan Santamaría International Airport, with a resort setting that makes an arrival or departure stop part of the vacation. Confirm transport arrangements when booking.

Marielle C.

Our 2nd time here. Our stay was short, so we didn’t mind a room without a view. Beds always comfortable.

Maureen H.

We arrived very late and were really only in the hotel a few hours as our shared transfer was picking us very early in the morning to head to Laguna Lodge

Marielle C.

Very nice hotel. Was very surprised by Birthday balloons and cake. Great location, beautiful grounds and good breakfast! We enjoyed the mall close by that had entertainment and multiple food options.

Catherine H.

Nicely kept and landscaped.

Kathleen H.

It was close to airport. Restaurant food was not that great, but it was just a quick over night before travel.

Marie B.

Specific arrangements were made by you to have a Takeaway breakfast provided to us by this hotel before we went to the airport and we were told that we were not getting a Takeaway breakfast. We were definitely disappointed. Otherwise we enjoyed the accommodation there.

Rebecca P.

Only here a couple of hours before a flight but for the short amount of time, it seemed nice. We appreciated the warm cookies they gave us after an unexpectedly long drive hort trip

Heather J.

Loved the atmosphere here. The pool area was nice. My husband and son both had cold water for their showers though.

Emily S.

Enjoyed this hotel, pool, onsite gift shop.

Jodi R.

Another great hotel with super friendly staff!

Warren M.

The staff, while not totally English speaking, were very responsive and helpful.

Laura V.

Lovely hotel! Would stay here again. The pool was huge and my kids had so much fun swimming there. Loved having our room right by the pool for easy access. Rooms were spacious and clean. We walked to the pizza place just just the road and it was delicious. My kids were also thrilled that they gave us cookies upon arrival. Lovely place close to the airport.

Nidhi P.

Slightly more comfortable this time because we were able to get a king bed room.

Francis P.

Unfortunately because we arrived so early, the only room they had for us was small, untidy and not up to Hilton quality.

Nidhi P.

Very clean but outdated.

Francis P.

Very nice hotel

Lynn L.

room was REALLY FAR from the desk. hotel is old, but updated and close to the airport

Joel B.

I was only there for one night, as a layover to catch a early flight the next day. Was very comfortable

Janet H.

We even observed and photographed birds outside of the hotel before being transported to Monteverde.

Willow J.

This was a great hotel, very friendly staff and nice atmosphere. We only stayed one night, but would definitely recommend it.

Joel F.

The staff was rude until we told them we are Hilton Honours members and the hot water in the room was cold. I would give this place 1 star. Not fitting with the 5 stars of the rest of the trip.

Richard H.

We do like to spend the last night on a trip like this next to the airport. We stayed here before so we knew what to expect. We were not disappointed. All was good.

Heather T.

This was a very nice hotel, rooms were great, staff was friendly and helpful. Enjoyed our stay

Rahul S.

Everything in the hotel was exorbitantly expensive. We had the worst food of our trip at their restaurant and probably paid twice as much as any other meal during the trip. The heating/cooling system was also not functioning well.

Rob W.

A great hotel to calm down after a long flight. It is like an oasis in the city. Breakfast was so so.
