Eden Atenas

Mercedes

10/10 Excellent

Eden Atenas is a lovely place. This B&B style accommodation was just the right spot for my first few nights in Costa Rica. It had an amazing garden view and views of the hilltops from the balcony. You can tell the owners took great pride in the beautiful garden. It's like a tropical and botanical paradise. I enjoyed my stay, the sunsets, sunrise, hammocks, pool and their two dogs during my stay. I'd definitely try and visit Eden Atenas again if I come back to Costa Rica in the future. Their...

This is an awesome place, the location is wonderful, you must arrive by car and you need a car to get around and tour. The view from our room was excellent we could see the valley and swimming pool. the sun was shinning on us when we could see the rain clouds around. You couldn't ask for anything more in these units, The staff is awesome, the breakfast is good and we had a full kitchen bathroom and private bedroom.

La Tigra Rainforest Lodge

San Lorenzo

10/10 Excellent

We were lucky to find this hotel by accident on the internet. We had plans for a quick stay overnight and back to La Fortuna for the Cerro Chato hike, but once we arrived at the hotel and saw the cabins and grounds, we cancelled our hike. La Tigra is beautiful, peaceful and unique. Your cabin is at tree top level, one wall opens up and you can sleep with the curtains wide open and watch the stars. Adolfo and his team excel at customer service and we felt like one of the family. It is a...

Excellent service in this family-run bed and breakfast. After a long and late flight, the airport pick up was appreciated and to wake up with a beautiful view of a tropical garden and forest area was so much nicer than waking next to a highway at a typical airport hotel. We arranged for our rental car to be delivered to the property, so we were able to avoid the congested traffic of San Jose. Lovely continental breakfast with croissants and coffee.
