Absolutely amazing hotel with unique yurt-like cabins perched on the hillside with a panoramic view of the jungle. Owned by two American ex-pats - the restaurant has a wonderful menu of local cuisine which you enjoy in the covered and open dining room. Great pool, hot-tub and horse back riding available also close to tours of local coffee plantation. You... More

By far one of the best places I have ever stayed. We had 3 charming wood suites that sat right on the jungles edge. The restaurant sat on a cliff and was all open for beautiful mountain views. The staff was the friendliest we encountered on our entire Costa Rica adventure. It is a short drive out of the city... More

Vista Del Valle Plantation is about 30 minutes from the San Jose Airport and a great place to start or finish your vacation in Costa Rica. We spent two nights there upon pour arrival and enjoyed a day visiting the surrounding area before heading to Arenal. The villas are lovely and have a wonderful view of the valley and beautiful...

We stayed here for three nights at the end of a three week trip to Costa Rica. Before we arrived, we feared that its location close to San Jose Airport might mean that it was a little urbanized but we were wrong! It is beautifully located on the edge of a deep valley and has the most magnificent gardens which... More

What a beautiful place to stay. We stayed here on our first evening in Costa Rica for only one night but wished we stayed a day or two longer to be able to fully enjoy what the hotel had to offer. The grounds were amazing and our room, one of the wood suites which overlooked the canyon, complimented the natural... More

We stayed here our first night in Costa Rica, thinking it would be a nice place to stop the first night. But it was the most memorable and beautiful place we stayed on our trip. Amazing grounds, and the Mango Manor, which is the room where we stayed, was just gorgeous. The restaurant has this amazing view over the valley... More

I visited six years ago and found this hidden gem enchanting. Returning I found the landscape had matured giving each of the villas, trails and common areas an incredible natural environment. The guest areas are serene and pleasing to the body, mind and spirit. The staff could not be more helpful both with requests regarding their site and helping me... More

Upon check-in I was upgraded at no charge to one of the Wood suites that overlook the canyon. The suite next door was unoccupied during my stay so i had total privacy. The view from the balcony is outstanding, and the room had many nice touches like mosquito netting over the bed, incense, and very comfortable rockers on the balcony.... More

What a fantastic place! it far surpassed my expectations! I was overwhelmed by the beauty of the surrounding nature, and the cottages made of fine woods and bamboo, with Asian touches.. so much taste and subtlety and the SUNRISES... you can see the lights of San Jose at night, but you can avoid it almost entirely, which was a joy...
