Living on the coast in Florida I rarely get a chance to be more that 75 feet above sea-level. Almost got a nose bleed the first day there. It was wanderful. Having traveled extensively in my career I would recommend the Plaza Yara above any Marriot . The room was PicoBelo clean. Not one thing out of place. Even the... More

The rooms are large and clean. It even included a mini kitchen. I've never seen a toilet as nicely decorated as the one in this property. The shower was the hottest in all of costa Rica. While sitting at the pool I saw a sloth move through the trees. Accross the street I found a family of howler monkeys in... More

We stayed just this past weekend (4/14-4/18/12) and could not have been happier. Breakfast each day was outstanding, the room was super clean, spacious, and just perfect. We spent a fair amount of time at the pool and chatted with the resident Sloth. Havana the Cat made fast friends with us after an offer of milk. I can't say enough... More

We stayed here for only one night, but found the hotel staff to be extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms are huge and clean! This, by far, was the best shower anywhere in Costa Rica. We had family staying in other rooms in the hotel who said the same. We were a little disappointed to not see any monkeys, but... More

I really enjoyed my stay at Yara Plaza. The rooms were huge and the staff was very nice. One negative would be the rooms near the front of the building can be pretty noisy near the road and during 7-9pm while there is live music at the nearby restaurant, La Hacienda. Try to ask for a room away from the... More

We loved the spacious room- like an efficiency apartment with kitchen, sitting room, and two double beds. We watched monkeys swinging through the trees from our balcony and again in the dining area at breakfast. A first for us! The staff was very helpful in answering questions about activities and area restaurants. Felt very safe with an attendant on duty... More

Plaza Yara is a great play to stay! My friends and I stayed there for 4 nights last week, and we absolutely loved it! The rooms are very spacious and have a separate dining area with a kitchenette. The hotel is within walking distance to the bus stop, so its definitely convenient. The staff is great - very helpful! Thank... More

One of the best parts was eating breakfast in the patio and seeing monkeys climbing on the trees. It didn't really feel like a hotel, but that was actually what I liked about it. Customer service was what made our stay even better. The rooms were big and clean. Jonathan and Javier were extremely helpful and personable during our stay.... More

We just returned from a wonderful stay at Hotel Plaza Yara. I can't recommend it highly enough- it was immaculate, with spacious, beautiful rooms,comfortable beds, and an enormous bathroom with a shower large enough to fit a small football team! Loved the staff - thank you Javier and Nelson - always eager to help, and full of great suggestions. Breakfast... More
