Book a Santa Rita Resort

"Amazing is an understatement. The hosts were very gracious, attentive, pleasant, informative, & over all the best host we have ever had the pleasure of staying with. The bungalow was very clean, bed was comfy and firm & necessary toiletries were provided & up kept. Even with no AC it got so cold at night that it wasn’t needed. It is very high up in the mountains, if you have never been to Costa Rica just be prepared for very steep, thin, one roaded roadways going up to the cottage. The views and peaceful surrounding make everything worth wild. Over all we recommend and look forward to returning here someday. "

"Beautiful accommodations - up to date, spacious room, large bathroom. The grounds were very attractive and well kept. Dining was very good which is nice since the lodge is a bit out of the way from other options. Good location - not too far from San Jose and close to the Poas Volcano National Park and not far from the La Paz Waterfalls."

"A wonderful ecolodge with beautiful trails, pool, kayaks, and excursions."

"This was an inexpensive option for our family to stay in Sarapiqui. The property is interesting because of the covered pathways and proximity to two miles of rainforest trails, and we spied frogs, howler monkeys, iguana, caterpillars, etc. Breakfast was wonderful. There is no air conditioning or hot water, which was fine for us. Wet clothes will take a looooong time to hang dry. We are a family of 6, and I thought from photos that we would likely have a room with bunk beds. Instead we were given two rooms, and that worked for us."

"Wow, it’s a great gem. Asked for the upgrade and got it. Room was immaculate. Pool was clean and they are renovating the hot tub/spa area. That will be amazing and like new in a couple of weeks. Food was outstanding also."

"This is the best resort I have ever stayed at. The people who work here are incredibly nice. The amenities are incredible and the natural beauty of the place is unmatched. The place is surrounded by jungle, but somehow the resort’s cleanliness is top tier. The rooms have such an amazing feel, and the private hot tubs are incredible. "

"What can I say about this beautiful place. Hidden away from the hustle and bustle of city life you will find the best place we have stayed! The staff are amazing and nothing is too much hassle for them. The entire site was clean and tidy. The cabins are big but really cute. The food in the restaurant was amazing. And even though we were the only people staying here some days they always had a good spread laid out for breakfast or they would cook it fresh to order. We absolutely loved our stay here and can recommend to anyone thinking of booking this place."

"Altura Hotel is an absolute delight! From the moment you arrive, you're greeted with stunning views that stretch far and wide, offering a serene and picturesque escape from the hustle and bustle. The tranquility here is unmatched- it's the perfect spot for anyone looking to unwind and soak in the natural beauty of Costa Rica. One of the standout features is the breakfast, freshly made and absolutely delicious! You can taste the care and quality in every bite, making mornings here a real treat. The hotel's cozy and inviting hangout spaces add to the charm, giving guests a relaxed atmosphere to enjoy good company, a great book, or simply the peace and quiet. The rooftop space was a fantastic spot to take in the views! While it only had one chair, it was still a lovely place to enjoy the fresh air and peaceful surroundings. A few more seating options would have made it even better, but the experience was wonderful overall. Whether you're seeking a quiet retreat or an adventurous getaway, Altura Hotel delivers on all fronts. The combination of breathtaking scenery, top-notch hospitality, and peaceful ambiance makes it a must-visit destination. Highly recommend!"

"Our stay at Peace Lodge was amazing. The service, to the delicious restaurants, to the night walk, and all of the animal sightings and viewings were truly amazing. Thank you to Michael and Andres for making this trip so memorable!"
