I have 4 nights and want a beach front hotel.
2 adults and I have a 5 year old so looking for safe beach, child friendly, pool and reasonable nice hotel.
Also we will be leaving last day to our last night somewhere? To fly out next day from SJO, so which is more practical for return to SJO?
Choices so far:
Playa hermosa-hermosa hotel
Playa Flamingo-flamingo beach &spa hotel
Playa Potrero - Bahia del sol
Also, flamingo offers an all inclusive option. Is it worth it there?
Any advice greatly appreciated.
Which hotel? Flamingo beach, hermosa hotel or Bahia del sol?

Didn't stay in that hotel, but love the Flamingo Beach area; gentle enough for kids, more secluded than Hermosa (and close to Playa Conchal and the restaurants of Brasilito, if you want a change of scene). Would definately prefer that over Playa Hermosa.
The beach and sea are calmest at Bahia del Sol, and it's a great value.
Where can I find a great deal? It's the most expensive of the three.
