"The location is perfect. We were a block from our whale watching tour, two blocks from the beach (parque nacional marina ballena), and there were some smaller but very good restaurants nearby.

Also recomment the restaurant La Boba La Ballena nearby."

"Excelente lugar para un descanso alrededor de naturaleza"

Oxygen Jungle Villas & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Words cant express how amazing this place and the staff are!"

Golden Pineapple Villas

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing property…amazing staff!!!"

Canavida Villas & Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Un lugar espectacular para vacacionar. Tranquilo, muy bien equipado, hermosa vista. Sólo que se debe mejorar las indicaciones para llegar, la indicación no es tan precisa las aplicaciones pueden llevarte por un camino más corto pero intransitable para vehículos sencillos."

Alborada Boutique Stay

10/10 Excellent

"10/10 recommendation for couples. Jimmy was a great cook and very friendly. He’s definitely an asset. Room was comfortable and clean. Pool was very relaxing and refreshing. First time in Costa Rica and it was perfect staying here."

Villas Alturas

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was great! Property is beautiful with an amazing view of the Pacific Ocean! The food from the restaurant was very flavorful and delicious! Only issue is that there was no body wash/shower gel in our bathroom. Besides that, it was excellent! Would definitely stay there again."

Tiki Villas Rainforest Lodge & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful boutique hotel, service was great. We enjoyed the pool, drinks and breakfast. Room very comfortable, outside shower, coffee machine, with a porch. Everything was outstanding!"

Trogon Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"I highly recommend The Trogon Lodge. The staff at the reception desk, the restaurant and the bar/café were super kind and helpful. The new manager is doing a great job. Delicious food: sopa azteca, sauteed trout with veggies, chicken stew, egg omelettes, for example. The trout could not be fresher since the hotel has its own trout ponds. (If you like juicy trout better ask the chef to cook it for less time.) The hotel is located at 2,200 meters above sea level (7,000 feet), at the edge of a crystal clean river, with a soothing sound and view areas with chairs to relax. Gardens and mountains around it are spectacular. The beds are very comfortable making it hard to get up. Many stairs and small hills to reach the upper rooms. The trails can be challenging, and I recommend using hiking boots there. Again, highly recommended."

Yuli Hotel

"A wonderful place to stay, we loved it."
