Fiesta Resort All Inclusive Central Pacific - Costa Rica
Puntarenas, Costa Rica

Puntarenas, Costa Rica
Four restaurants and seven bars. Cana Brava (seafood) is the standout — reserve a table on your first day, as seats disappear fast for the week. The Calypso buffet is the daily workhorse for all three meals. Premium guests get exclusive breakfast and lunch access at Macarela.

Seafood
Best restaurant on property. Seafood à la carte, dinner only (6-10 PM), reservation required (minimum 2-night stay). The ceviche and signature Cana Brava soup are the menu standouts. Reserve immediately upon check-in — tables fill for the entire week within hours. Smart casual dress.
Signature dishes: Cana Brava soup, Ceviche, Crepes
Latin American
Latin American à la carte dinner (6-10 PM), reservation required (2-night minimum). Named after the fictional town in García Márquez's novels, the menu spans Central and South American regional specialties. Smart casual dress — shorts and dress shirts are acceptable, no sleeveless or flip-flops.
International
International à la carte with split access: breakfast and lunch exclusive to Premium zone guests; dinner open to all guests by reservation (6-10 PM, 2-night minimum). The smaller, more intimate setting makes it the most refined dining option. Smart casual enforced at all meal periods.
International
Main buffet serving all three meals plus afternoon coffee (7 AM to 10 PM). Open show kitchen with live preparation visible from the dining room. Themed dinner nights rotate through the week. Casual dress — bermuda shorts, shirts, and sandals acceptable; cover up over swimwear.
Snacks & Quick Bites
Poolside snack spot open 11 AM to 6 PM between the children's section and main swimming area. Sandwiches, nachos, and light meals for midday refueling without leaving the pool. Swimwear with cover-up acceptable.
Swim-up bar
Thatched-roof swim-up bar in the main pool, 10 AM to 6 PM. Cocktails, beer, and tropical drinks. The social center during afternoon pool games and foam parties.
Cocktails & Pool drinks
Exclusive to Premium zone guests. Swim-up section and dry seating at high-top tables by the Premium pool. One of the clearest perks of the Premium zone upgrade — the main pool's bar gets crowded, this one doesn't.
Cocktails
Evening cocktail bar near the relaxation pool, 5:30 PM to 11 PM. The quietest bar on property — good for a pre-dinner drink or post-show nightcap without the main pool's energy.
Cocktails & Entertainment
Main resort bar near the entertainment area, open 10 AM to midnight. Circular wooden design, social hub before and after nightly shows. Live music, karaoke, and themed party events throughout the week.
Cocktails
Observation pier bar operating on weekends and peak season only. The most dramatic vantage point on property for the Pacific sunset — a quintessential Fiesta Resort experience when it's open. Confirm with front desk at check-in whether it's operating during your stay.
