“Nice accommodation and a lovely host!”
Firstly the host Margarita is really lovely and welcoming and couldn’t be more helpful. We loved how big our family room was and the beds were comfortable and everything was very clean. We only stayed 1 night at the end of our holiday so can’t comment on much else. Breakfast was really nice and there are plenty of restaurants nearby for dinner. There’s no aircon in the rooms but it is cooler in San Jose so we found it to be ok overnight with the fan on.

“Lovely stay”
Margarita was born to host people - we’d had a long drive and were exhausted and all feeling quite sick. Margarita took such good care of us, made us a great pizza, prepared a lovely fruit plate. We felt so well looked after just when we needed it. Such a great place to relax before a flight in the gardens and our children could play in the playground.

“Outstanding in every respect.”
We liked everything about this place. A huge room and everything is so tastefully done. The host Margarita made is dinner when we arrived late and even cleaned my car in the night when it rained! I can’t recommend this place more highly. And not that far from the airport for our last night in Costa Rica. Just book it before someone else does.

“Wonderful introduction to Costa Rica”
Margarita was very welcoming and couldn’t be more helpful. It was a shame we could only stay one night. Breakfast was excellent.

If you are looking for stay close to San Jose airport this is great choice. Around 15km away from airport but very quiet. Staff exceptionally nice. We arrived late and they prepared really nice dinner for us. Delicious breakfast. Owner is really helpful with all necessary tips you might need for your CR adventure.

“Great hotel to start in Costa Rica, very family friendly”
Great hotel not far from the airport - 10-minute-drive if there is no traffic jam: very nice family rooms, beautiful tropical garden, lots of amenities for kids, places to sit and relax for adults, and a small swimming pool to relax after a visit or after a long flight We spend 3 days there with the kids, and they loved it!!! The owner is nice and goes out of her way to help I can't recommend it more
