”10/10 super kind hosts!”

”Lovely casita on unique, secure, private, beautiful grounds in the mountains north of San Jose. Eduardo and Betty made our first visit to Costa Rica amazingly special! They have become wonderful friends and I’m certain that we’ll stay in touch. ”

”Nice change of scenery and the manger was wonderful. The cabin was was pefwct for our interests and secluded enough to feel out of the city, yet close enough to go when you wanted. No ac, but not needed because it’s cold up in the mountains at night and the fireplace was used often. I will give some advice to owner however? Do not use vacasa as a broker they were rude and were adding huge fees and costs that were not at all necessary or reasonable. The house was great though, but watch out for...

”The resort area was huge, I really liked the trails that lead to the 5 waterfalls in the resort area, though the trails can get really muddy if it rains. The sunset pool was under renovation. The buildings are a bit outdated, but the room itself was nice and spacious, and had good amenities. Terrace had sunbeds, and the view was towards the city of San Jose. Note that there’s no air con, only a fan. I can warmly recommend also the spa. Staff was extremely friendly, and I found my one night stay...

”Perfect base for visiting the Poas Volcano and other sights in the area. From the hotel you can see the volcano so no guessing the weather and it's just a short ride to the national park. The hotel and rooms are modern and cozy, nice sofas with small fireplace to enjoy in the lobby area. Good restaurant.”

”Well maintained classy hotel on top of the hill overlooking San Juan. Nice coffee trail starts from the door. Pool is very small and was out of function. The only dinner place around is hotel's restaurant. The food was good but clearly overpriced.”

”It rains quite often, so there is always water in the waterfalls, which are quite magnificent. You can handfeed toucans and hummingbirds in the park. In the hotel room's balcony there is a hummingbird feeder so that you can watch them very close. The tour to volcano Poas was a disappointment. The staff advised us to reserve the tour on a previous day, when you have no idea about the weather in the mountain. We didn't see anything there.”

”We spent two nights in a boutique type hotel Volcanes. It was located in the very center of Alajuela. It’s a small family run hotel with a good friendly english speaking staff. Breakfast is served by your order and it certainly is fresh. Rooms are very tidy as all the public areas. You can find rooms for different price categories. We liked it very much. ”

”Amazing property, food and staff”
