Because of the proximity to SJO airport, I booked this hotel as an "in-between" after a long travel day ... But what a surprise, this place is a little piece of heaven right outside the city! The hotel property is like it's own little secret National Park! Rooms have air conditioning via a mini-split and private patios looking over the grounds! Plenty of parking if you're renting a car. Very well kept with even some hiking trails! The restaurant is a lovely indoor/outdoor setting and we had some pretty incredible meals! The only thing I regret is not booking this place for longer! We will be back!

Excellent place to stay for a night on arrival as its only around 20 minutes from the airport. A lovely place to start our trip with a very authentic feel. We didn’t get to experience much as we were so tired after our flight but the breakfast was amazing. Price was excellent

The “Honeymoon Suite” with 1 king bed had a ton of space and a large outdoor terrace (it was on the second floor). The restaurant was good for both dinner and the included breakfast. It is on a busy road but feels secluded with the gate and large property.

Absolutely gorgeous property! Comfy rooms, beautiful views, great staff and really good food. We felt welcome and safe at the gated property. Kids also very thoroughly enjoyed the pool. Would definitely make this a #1 stay next time we come back.

Stayed here for one night before an early flight out of SJO. Property was a little bit run down but clean and the staff was very friendly. The restaurant was convenient and prices were very fair. Only complaint is that we could hear some road noise, and found lots of little critters in our room. Overall, great value for what we paid.

We reserved a room and spent 7 hours on the property before our midnight flight. We're so happy we did. We walked the trails on the property, enjoyed the pool, and had a lovely dinner in the restaurant. We thought the menu was great and reasonabley priced. It felt like a bonus vacation day.

Tropical garden near the airport

We chose this as our first night in Costa Rica due to proximity to the airport (20min drive) Lovely pool area and the food at the onsite restaurant is delicious and such good value. Staff were helpful and approachable We explored the onsite walking trails and the garden setting is lush and tropical.
