Our hosts saved our trip! The rental car agency gave away our car despite the fact that we had made a reservation. When all of the rental agencies were saying that they could not help us, our hosts pulled some strings and managed to get us a car for the whole week. They let us leave some of our overflow... More

Stayed there for one night coming into Costa Rica. The hotel itself is in average shape for a costa rican hotel- the floors were a bit dirty, the shower had very low water pressure (no pressure at all, just water falling from the shower head), the sink had no hot water at all. Beds were simple and basic. Couldn't get... More

The owners were very friendly and accomodating. I stayed in two different rooms on different nights, and found them both to be outstanding. Nice shower facilities and air conditioning made this a wonderful place to refresh in the tropical setting. I highly recommend this place.

We had a 'not so great' experience with a taxi driver while traveling to Hotel Santa Maria Inn. The family staff could not apologize enough for this unfortunate incident in their country. They really did care about our Costa Rican experience. The room was very spacious and clean. We had not had a better breakfast anyway else we have stayed.... More

When booking accomodations, I look for and demand security, a clean and comfortable environment, and attentative friendly service. I found all of these qualities and more during my stay at this family owned hotel. A member of the staff took me to and from a restaurant on the evening of my arrival. I was served a generous breakfast in a... More

The Hotel Santa Maria Inn is an excellent hotel stop after riding for hours on a plane to San Jose. It is very convenient in location, 5 mins. away from the airport and city. The service was excellent as well, free access computer and wireless internet, as well as great Costa Rican breakfast every morning in the outside patio kitchen.... More

Hotel Santa Maria Inn is a wonderful B & B located in a convenient, quaint neighborhood. Sary and her family are absolutely wonderful and made us feel as if we were part of the family. They took us in and made sure that we were happy and comfortable. We were not only guests, but were made to feel as if... More

We only stayed here for two nights, once at the beginning of our trip, once at the end -largely because of the proximity to San Jose airport -but I would certainly stay there again and would recommend it to anyone. The family are extremely nice and friendly, they provide a very good shuttle service to and from the airport,and they... More
