We spent our first night here on our first trip to Costa Rica and it was such a pleasant welcoming spot after a long day of travel. The staff was extremely pleasant and the food was great. The setting is beautiful - you would not believe that this place was there as you venture off the main road. We were... More

Although it is only 25 minutes from the San Jose airport, it feels a world away with individual cabins perched overlooking the edge of the Rio Colorado gorge. We saw one of Costa Ricas most beautiful birds, a blue mot mot, and a blue morpho butterfly within the space of a few minutes of our arrival. it is so relaxing... More

This has been our last stop in Costa Rica for the past 8 years. The grounds are beautiful and my kids look forward to exploring the garden pathways each year, examining the flowers and spotting the ripe fruit growing in the trees. They look forward to the "welcome smoothie" that we get upon arrival and love taking a dip in... More

We stayed here on our first night upon arriving in Costa Rica. Ultimately, we were heading up to the Arenal Volcano area, but decided not to drive at night. I wanted to find a spot for our first night that would have a pool for the kids (ages 10, 12 and 16) and offer a beautiful environment for our first... More

In a nutshell, this is a place that is infused with magic, from the absolutely stunning grounds, to the very unique accomodations(Ilan Ilan and... More

Upon arrival in San Jose we went to straight to Vista del Valle. Airport pick up was arranged through the hotel, which makes arrival easy. The cabins and grounds are lovely, beautiful gardens, spacious cabins with peaceful views of the valley. The restaurant was good, staff attentive. The location outside of San Jose makes the next leg of the trip... More

If you need a place to stay near the airport this is a wonderful choice! Only 20 min from the airport it is nestled high above San Jose in the central highlands region. The main house and bungalows are tucked among giant bamboo plants (when they wind blows they make the most wonderful clicking sound-like wind chimes as they tap... More

This is the most wonderful place to stay - we were here for two nights and would have happily stayed longer. Lovely cabins, all in their own surroundings and set in the most beautiful grounds. There are amazing views over the valley below from the restaurant and swimming pool. It was quiet and relaxing and we loved seeing the many... More

My fiancé and I stayed in the ilang ilang room which is private and has an outdoor shower over looking the valley. It's as romantic as it gets. The staff is very helpful and sweet. The view from the restaurant is gorgeous and bursting with life! We look forward to visiting again.
