Rafiki Safari Lodge

Río Nuevo

10/10 Exceptional

My family and I stayed here for 6 nights and had the most amazing time! The property is absolutely gorgeous, peaceful, and just the right amount of isolation in the mountains. The staff was incredibly nice and accommodating, always checking to make sure you're having a great time. The excursions were fantastic, we highly recommend the white water rafting! I took my 6 year old daughter on it, and felt very safe with the expertise of our guides. If you are looking for a true getaway in nature,...

10/10 Exceptional

Kurà and its people are remarkable. It is difficult to be brief; we had a very rich experience. Room/Architecture: The ocean view is indeed the paramount feature of all six rooms, and the wildlife—mostly beautiful birds—is right there outside your balcony. Beautiful design and architecture as well. Food: Delicious. As a vegetarian, I wanted more days to try all the options, and my carnivore husband was equally well served. Staff: Exceptionally skilled, wonderful people. All efforts to...

10/10 Exceptional

We loved our stay here! The room had a beautiful view of the ocean and the bed was very comfortable. The fresh fruit at breakfast was outstanding and they really accommodate any requests well. The staff are so friendly and attentive. The pool overlooking the bay was perfectly cool and a great way to unwind in the hot afternoons. The view is stunning. The tile edging on the pool needs some maintenance but that did not take away from our enjoyment. We'd highly recommend this place!

There are not enough nice things I can say about Mango Moon Villa! I just spent 6 days there with my family and it was an incredible experience. The ocean views are amazing. You will never get tired of looking at this view. But the staff was probably the best part. They are so nice and willing to help you with anything you need. I chose this hotel because it included the breakfast and wildlife. Having breakfast with the monkeys is an experience I will never forget. We had dinner a couple of...

Hotel Sueño Tranquilo

Quepos

10/10 Exceptional

The staff was warm, welcoming and very helpful. In short, they were fantastic. The room was super clean and nice. It was great to have the pool to soak in at the end of the day. The location was very convenient to the bus station, malecon, marina, and businesses in Quepos. The location is tucked away right off the main road. But it feels very safe and secluded. There is some road noise, but it tends to quiet down about 8:30 pm. We would definitely stay here again.

Everything was absolutely perfect from the moment we arrived. We were greeted by Lettika who gave us a tour of the B&B and introduced us to the onsite sloth lounging in the tree. She was always available for any questions. Our room was gorgeous and very clean with a beautiful screened patio. We were able to walk to the beach within 3 min and ran across a group of Macaws munching on almonds in a tree along with monkeys. The property is absolutely beautiful and the continental breakfast was our...
