This is a very welcoming place to stay with friendly pets - made us feel at home although had all the character of a costa rican villa! We would book here again in a heartbeat! My boys loved the extra space on the grounds and breakfast and patios with hammocks were a treat!

This was the perfect place to stay after we landed in CR. We got there at 10:45 pm and we were greeted by our host Margarite and one of her super friendly dogs. We were offered food and beverages which was very kind of her at such a late hour. The room was more than we even needed and we had a great sleep. Breakfast was delicious and we headed out shortly thereafter to catch the Ferry to get to Santas Tresea. Perfect location not too far from the airport but you get out of the hustle and bustle and an easy drive from there to our next destination. Make sure you use Waze for directions. There is no sign at the road for the hotel but once you get down a short lane way you will see it!

Margarite was a friendly and amazing host who greeted us personally as soon as we arrived. She was over the top accommodating in all aspects of our stay! We love animals so we enjoyed her dogs and cats and chickens running all over the place! Her breakfasts were great and the whole place was very quaint and rustic. Even in August it was cool on the mountain so having no air conditioning was not a problem.
