Kylpylähotellit - Vara Blanca, Heredia

”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. ”

”We enjoyed our short stay. Out flight left early in the morning, so we really appreciated the take-away breakfast and airport shuttle service. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. Good hotel for a good price. ”

”We were looking for an “off-tourist” spot since we flew in from nyc and were driving up to La fortuna. This was an absolute gem. Plenty space for kids to run/play, hot springs, gorgeous river stream. We only had one morning, but would’ve easily stayed for a couple nights if we didn’t have our next stop scheduled! Totally recommend this place - be prepared as this is more like a high-end “glamping”. Plenty beds and sleeping accommodations. Very respectful and accommodating staff. ”

” Beautiful river behind hotel. Property landscaped with care. The beds are very comfortable. Restaurant is open all day with good selection . Staff very helpful. Front gate to property has guard for security. ”

”Everything was amazing. The villa, the food, the staff, everything exceeded our expectations. We enjoyed our stay and was sad to go. ”

”Hermosas cabañas con un muy restaurant, instalaciones de montaña sin lujos pero confortables.”

”The hotel is well located since it is within a walking distance from central SJO. Atmosphere in the hotel is excellent as well as service. Yes - the breakfast could be larger or the pool bigger, but I always assess locations from a price/quality perspective and stress cleanliness and security. And from these points of view, Santo Tomas is a first rate choice. Highly recommended. I would go again. ”
