Top El Achiote Hotel Reviews

Yarumo Lodge Río Celeste Black Chalets

10/10 Excellent

"This place was really perfect for me and my son. The location is on the mountain but not far off the road so you get peace and also some wildlife sounds. Everything was so clean and comfortable and the kitchen was fully stocked with all cooking supplies which was a relief after having to eat out so often. I would definitely stay here again"

Simply the best, incredible views, pool, breakfast and a friend in the area!

10/10 Excellent

"Patrick was helpful all along the way from when we booked the trip all the way to the end of it. He answered all our questions and was also very hands on with scheduling our activities according to what everyone in the group was interested in and grouping things together that were in the same area. He had important advice on which activities you’d need a break after or what order to do them in. The breakfast was amazing! And the smoothies! He was really good at suggesting local food places for the other meals. He was also able to arrange a driver and coordinate our pickup times. It’s nice that each room has its own bathroom and shower and each room has its own AC for different temperatures. I recommend bringing eye masks for early morning sunlight around 5 am - or you can get up early and see the beautiful sunrise and try to glimpse the volcano. The pool house is nice and has a hot tub which was perfect after adventuring all day. Cell phone service and WiFi work fine. They went out of their way to make sure everyone was doing ok and things were going smoothly. (Doesn’t pertain to the house, but do bring dramamine if you’re sensitive to curvy roads and I do recommend having him arrange a driver to kick back and enjoy vacation.)"

Finca Amistad Cacao Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"A hidden gem in guanacaste province! By far my favorite place, from the warm welcome, to the well-thought out layout of our cabin, to the excellent service all around! The place is clean, safe, well maintained, easy to navigate even for our young kids, who felt right at home. Upon arrival, we were welcomed with a chocolate drink and a tasting of various locally crafted cacao products. The breakfast, traditional costa rican, is made fresh every morning, with coffee/tea/hot chocolate included! Dinner in 2026 is 18 USD per adult and 12 USD per child. Well worth it even if it's slightly pricier than local sodas: it's a genuine farm-to-table experience, includes a fresh fruit juice and dessert. We did the included cacao tour (and learned so much!) as well as the paid chocolate workshop (so much fun, and you get to take home 3 tablets of personalized chocolate per person! In 2026, it was 120 USD for our family of four). And what to say about the staff! Friendly, kind, and super patient with the children :) The included spa is gorgeous; we felt like we were right in paradise on earth! Yoga mats, hot bath, cold bath, showers, all in the middle of a gorgeous tropical setting! An ecologically friendly place; they recycle, they promote responsable handling of nature, and, the cacao farm is sustainably managed and organic!"
