"Es handelt sich um ein riesieges Holzgebäude,das jemand vor mehreren Jahren mit viel Liebe gebaut hat. Es liegt abseits der Straße auf einem Mischgelände aus Kuhwiesen u. Restwald. Das Zimmer war sehr geräumig, rustikal und nach aussen offen, so dass man abends- wenn man nicht von Moskitos zerfressen werden will- kein Licht benutzen sollte. Das Personal wirkte unmotiviert, unfreudlich u. wenig hilfsbereit. Beim Einchecken bekommt man direkt eine Liste mit Aktivitäten, gezeigt u. natürlich die...

Top Rara Avis Waterfall Hotel Reviews

DoubleTree by Hilton Cariari - San Jose Costa Rica

10/10 Excellent

"I have been staying here for 20+ years! Love the staff and service."

Xandari Resort And Spa

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is amazing! And the spa is beyond words. Staff is friendly and always willing to help and serve you. Food is really good as well. And the property is beautiful"

Fairfield by Marriott San Jose Airport Alajuela

10/10 Excellent

"Everything is great , the staff very friendly 100 %"

Poas Volcano Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"The lodge is beautiful, and an impressive piece of architecture. Staff are super friendly and helpful, and food is very good. There's a pool table and game room downstairs in the lodge, which we definitely took advantage of with the weather turned against us. The grounds are gorgeous and well-maintained. Note that when you turn off the main road you drive past quite odiferous cow sheds and through a pasture...just have faith and keep driving to the lodge. The actual rooms appear to be the old bunkhouse, so they're a bit odd; the rooms are functional for the most part, but ceilings are quite low and the bathroom is sort of an elongated closet, so they have a weird feel. The walls are thin, but the other guests are quiet, so it all works out fine. WiFi is good in the rooms. No AC, but the elevation is high enough that we didn't need it. Good launching point to visit Poas Volcano early in the morning. We would stay again."

"Beautiful property, gardens, view, balconies. Comfortable, clean rooms."
