Bula Bula - Playa Grande

Join us for dinner at Hotel Bula Bula’s own restaurant The Great Waltini’s. Enjoy a casual fine dining experience in the open air restaurant or choose to sit under the stars on our deck and enjoy your meal with a little moonlight. Either way, your palate will be treated to a sumptuous meal. Our chef creates a “fusion of the Americas” joining California fresh, Gulf coast Cajun and New England sea food with Latin American variety and Costa Rican specialties. Click here to see a menu. Dinner is served from 5:30pm to 8:30pm during the week and until 9:00pm on Friday and Saturday. The restaurant is closed on Mondays.

The restaurant also has a full service bar that is made up of one solid sixteen foot piece of Guanacaste wood. You’ll be amazed at the beauty of the natural Costa Rican hardwood. Costa Rica has more than 3,000 species of hardwoods alone, compared to about 300 in all of North America.

While you’re admiring the bar, join us for one of Hotel Bula Bula’s famous cocktails including tropical rum drinks blended with fresh fruit, mouthwatering margaritas or a savory Siberian made with ice cream and chocolate, a must have! While enjoying your drink don’t forget to say “Hola” to Bert our Yellow Naped Amazon who is the resident Bula Bula bird. You are welcome to enjoy bar service all day either lounging in a hammock or sitting poolside. The bar officially closes at 10:00pm but will happily be kept open until your thirst is quenched!

Breakfast is complimentary and is served in the restaurant every morning from 7:00am to 9:00am. Late breakfast can be provided upon request.
