Three Sixty Boutique Hotel is a masterpiece! The attention to detail at every level took my breath away. When you arrive, you go up a very steep hill to be greeted by a friendly gate attendant who will let you into the property. When you park, an attendant is there to take you in a golf cart to the hotel. The entrance is designed in a way to build anticipation of the view you are about to see... as you make your way up the steps you will be astonished by the beautiful 360 degree view of the...

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.

Absolutely epic view. Incredible accommodations and very friendly staff. We had a very short stay and wish we could have been there longer. Highly recommend. The only challenge is the treacherous drive up/down the mountain. It is not paved and very rocky. You’ll need a 4x4 vehicle.

Our stay at Oxygen Jungle Villas was amazing! The property is very well taken care of. The rooms were beyond comfortable. We even saw a sloth on the property! The only thing that I would say is that anyone staying on the property must have a vehicle with 4x4 and the hotel should definitely disclose that at the moment or prior to booking. Other than that GREAT hotel!

My family and I stayed at the Cristal Ballena for 3 nights at it was absolutely lovely. The hotel grounds are considerably large and extremely well-manicured. There are a variety of flowers, fruit trees and other shrubbery making our early morning hikes through the property incredibly pleasurable. The best part was the enchanting river we discovered. You would probably love to spend a couple hours in the beautiful, big pool overlooking the ocean. It's really refreshing compared to the intense...

The beach was amazing! The cabins are very private and comfortable. There are monkeys and toucans on site. The staff was fantastic. So friendly! We got a flat tire and they pointed it out to us and immediately changed it for us...in the dark! Exceptional service! Highly recommended! We will be back!

My boyfriend and I just got back from the most romantic long weekend at RP imaginable.
Friends in San Jose have been recommending it for years - and now we know why.
The food, ambiance and service are second to none - certainly in CR.
The staff is super friendly and accommodating - but professional as well. We already miss the care they gave us.
Perhaps what stands out most (beside the view, natural beauty and exquisite design) is the fresh sushi created and served by master sushi chef...

This property is very relaxed and welcoming. The staff are highly attentive and really take care of you while you are on site. The addition of the animal sanctuary makes it a very eco-friendly destination.
We stayed for one week during which the surrounding jungle and wildlife were the stars of the show.

Tati and Mary were really helpful, we got to the property a little bit earlier and they checked if everything was in order and let us relax by the pool / bar area. We scanned a QR code and played an interactive game (like a scavenger hunt) where they talked about the hand-carved wooden Boruca mask and people, after we finished they gave us a refreshing fruit drink. We all love it!!!!

My stay at this jungle resort in Costa Rica was nothing short of magical. From the moment I arrived, I was blown away by the lush surroundings, the peaceful atmosphere, and the incredible hospitality. The resort is beautifully tucked into nature, allowing you to truly disconnect and soak in the beauty of the jungle.
A special shoutout to Dan, the owner, who went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable and memorable. He was incredibly kind, helpful, and always ready with great local tips...

The property is easy to miss because there are no signs on the street for it. Google Maps showed us where it was but we didn't believe it at first since there were no signs. But once we found it, someone was right there the open the gate for us and let us check in several...
