The room itself was by far the nicest, most comfortable room we had during our trip to Costa Rica. The beds were comfortable, the design was pleasant, the shower got nice and hot, the wifi is great (there is even a large smart TV with Netflix), and the grounds are beautiful. Allan, the host, was extremely friendly and amenable, even when we needed breakfast at 4:30am. The breakfast was delicious, made by Allan and his son. He was also able to arrange a private taxi service to the SJO airport for cheaper than we had found elsewhere, and it was his other son who drove us; he was also very friendly and delightful to talk to, even with our limited Spanish. And Allan mailed our postcards for us!
It is currently very small (just the one cabana so far, which has the advantage of feeling more like an airbnb than a hotel) and can be hard to find, though Allan has plans of adding more cabanas so I think it's recognizability will grow. There is no immediate front desk service; Allan and his family live off-site, but he is generally available by what's app. Be sure to communicate your arrival time so that you can coordinate check-in accordingly. He also does not speak much English, but he is very patient and friendly even if you don't know Spanish; we knew just enough to get by, and still had some very pleasant conversations with him (he loves to talk!), but I imagine this could throw some travelers off.

+ We really appreciated the flexibility of the owner and his son. In order for us to make an early start every day, they adjusted the time of breakfast quite substantially. + Our expectations of the aparment were high based on the pictures and we were definitely not let down. The room is very good size, nicely decorated, finished to perfection. Sufficient storage space is a big plus. + The apartment is surrounded by a lush garden.

nice hosts and very good breakfast in an scenic environment! Even saw some monkeys and a frog before the breakfast Clean apartments Very good location if you have a car (3 min outside of the town)
Unfortunately the host and his family doesn’t speak English but he still likes to talk and you will understand him with using hand and feet :)

Allan and his family were excellent hosts. They prepared us a generous breakfast each morning and were nice to chat with. The room was very clean. The property is a few kilometres outside of town but it wasn’t bad to walk in and the proximity to the El Salto rope swing is nice.
The synthetic material of the bedding. Cotton sheets and a quilt would make for a more comfortable sleep.

A nice cabin, well set up. Very clean, a little out of town so really need a car. Delightful owners keen to share history and wildlife, great breakfast.

I like this property as it is a family oriented place. You will feel as home. The owner Allan is awesome and make you feel welcome.
There’s nothing I can tell that I didn’t like.
