Guest reviews

"Beautiful garden setting, excellent food, spacious rooms, friendly helpful staff"

Avis de Jane Hotel Bougainvillea San José

"Property was beautifully maintained & cared for. Breakfasts were delicious with everything you could wish for. Home made local jams were delicious. Annie & Jeff were delightful, fun, & helpful. They went out of their way to make you feel comfortable. The pool was beautiful & amazing in its setting. It really is our favourite place to stay in CR."

Avis de Beverley Hotel Mango Valley

"We stayed for one night at the beginning and end of our Costa Rican trip. Very nice residential, family owned boutique hotel conveniently located to the SJO airport. Rooms were spacious and clean. The open air lounge / breakfast area provided wonderful opportunities for seeing and hearing birds while taking in the wonderful landscaping. Breakfast was freshly prepared and very tasty. Everyone was very pleasant and helpful."

Avis de Stephen Terrazas de Golf Boutique Hotel

"The hotel is good value. Breakfast was very good. Rooms were clean and the park across the street is a nice place to visit. Good basic hotel."

Avis de Roy Rincon del Valle Hotel & Suites

"This property is truly exceptional. We really enjoyed walking the various trails. There is a spectacular view from the terrace of the valley and hills below all the way to the Pacific. The staff were friendly and helpful, and we were made to feel very welcome."

Avis de Patricia Valle Escondido Nature Reserve Hotel & Farm

"Wow!! This place is much better than I expected. These cabins are adorable! Our room and bathroom were large, modern, clean and comfortable. They are very well-built with beautiful craftsmanship. The grounds are immaculate. We did not have time to do hike their walking trail but if I were to stay in La Fortuna again, I would definitely stay here and do that. Breakfast was very good. Every breakfast place serves rice and black beans, but these were exceptional!! They were the best we had in our travels in Costa Rica. They add a herb that is unique to the La Fortuna area that is related to the coriander (cilantro) family. It was delicious and gave the meal more of a "local" vibe. The view of the volcano from the property is amazing!! It's right in front of you! I wish we had stayed for a few more days. The price was very good."

Avis de Ronald Hotel Campo Verde

"Like the rooms,pool ,great breakfast and the food at the restaurant out side the hotel is very good."

Avis de Rodrigd Wyndham San Jose Herradura

"The breakfast buffet was wonderful. Everything we could want and more. The restaurant Tarmarine Asian Fusion was very good."

Avis de Deanna JW Marriott Guanacaste Beach Resort

"Christina was so good to us. She drove through busy traffic to pick us up at airport. As it was late, she called in for a pizza for us. Her breakfast next morning was good and she called an uber to take us to the airport as she couldn't leave with more people coming and going. She is a one woman show and she does with grace and kindness."
