Jesús

10/10 Excellent

This was my retreat experience and was delighted by the place. I see that EXPEDIA rates it at 3 1/2 star but would consider this place much higher. The place is very new and decorated in a calm, simple but yet stylish way. The setting on the side of the mountain offers stunning views and the sound of the forest is so peaceful. I was blown away by the attention of the employees, they are genuine and kind. If you are concern about the semi/raw diet...don't be!! I was so surprise on how good...

I loved this private property and the owners of the property Lazara & Alex. We rented the deluxe bungalow. It was such a BEAUTIFUL view of the mountains, the pool was so relaxing and it was awesome to enjoy 24hr access to the pool and go night swimming. The construction of the walkway, lights, stairs and the place we stayed was all so elegant and beautiful. The property was very clean, big and spacious. It was also a gated community that we were able to open and close as we needed (which made us...

Nice place, convenient Rooms with fridge, coffemaker, microwave, kitchenet and all the things necessary for cooking. Recomendation: if you have a car it can be easier 'cause you have several supermarkets and restaurants near there ( 2 km or less) but if; not try to have some things to cook before due to by walking/uber/bus could be complicated. The rest of the things are OK, nice pool some weekend

The hosts Jan and Avtar gave me such a warm and inviting welcome! My original flight was cancelled, so I arrived very late at night to the property. At night you can see the stars so incredibly clear from the pool or from your rooms balcony. Waking up in the morning in this very lush oasis in the city of Atenas was so peaceful. I enjoyed the nature and seclusion, while being close to everything I wanted to explore. My room was cozy and very comfortable with a hammock outside. The best part was...

10/10 Excellent

so I loved this hotel the first few nights. But there is a lot of stuff that I need to warn others. There's nothing to do here besides a few nature walks. There is a lovely fireplace in each cabin and the cabins are lovely but there is a very very long and bumpy ride to get to the villa. I literally cringe thinking about this 45 minute road just to get access to the property. The service is great, the food is great but it's all very VERY expensive. If you do not have a car, transportation...

I stumbled upon Chayote Lodge during my search of hotels in Costa Rica. I was looking for a place to stay that was unique and memorable as well as in a beautiful setting away from the tourist craziness and congestion. I am so happy I booked Chayote Lodge!! From initially booking my hotel the email communication was prompt and friendly. I arranged transportation through Chayote Lodge to meet me once I arrived at the SJO airport to take me to Chayote and the driver was waiting for me, he was so...

I traveled with my son and guest to Costa Rica to experience the country for the first time. Me for the wildlife and escape, my son for the volcanoes. We got EVERYTHING. The hotel was an hour or so from the San Jose airport, offered the conveniences of a resort and provided a peaceful and overwhelmingly beautiful atmosphere. There's something beautiful to see my matter where you look. I wandered through the resort early one morning and saw a white-faced monkey which I will always...

We started out for the hotel from La Garita, and followed our GPS - at night time. It took 1-1/2 hours to get there over some of the most dangerous roads I had ever encountered. The hotel web site advised going by way of Zarcerio, but that did not work in our GPS. Several times I was very tempted to turn back. It was raining and foggy, and the road was essentially only one vehicle wide. Using the high beams to try and see where the road was going just resulted in a lot of glare due to the...
