The location was peaceful and felt right in nature. We stayed 3 nights in cabaña 2 but wish we could have stayed longer. The cabaña was perfect, we had breakfast on the deck every morning and could hear the creek below us, cicadas, horses and cows in the surrounding area and watched the humming birds feed in the tree beside us. The jacuzzi below the deck was private and we could fill directly with hot water ( recommend planning ahead as it is large and takes a while if you want it hot ). The hosts were very welcoming and accommodating and recommended one of the hikes we took as well as a nearby restaurant for dinner. We were travelling in a Toyota 4x4 Hilux and were able to use this as a base to see all the area around us. We focused on unguided hikes and looked for anything off the beaten track. I would highly recommend this place for adventurous people who are looking to connect with nature. This was a highlight of our trip and look forward to coming back.

We really enjoyed our stay at San Bosco Inn. Not only did they have a swimming pool but we were able to use the hot springs at their sister hotel, Volcano Lodge. Fabulous breakfast. Lots of birds & butterflies attracted to the gardens :)

This place was absolutely fabulous. It's a very big enclosed ground with lots of trees and plants. Every house - with its spacious rooms and bathrooms - has its own parking spot and its own terrace with stunning view on the volcano. After our hikes we were able to rest at our terrace and be surrounded with lots of birds - especially hummingbirds! The location of the hotel is also great - you can easily get to a lot of restaurants by foot, La Fortuna is a 5 min drive and Arenal National Park is a 20 minute drive. The staff is also extremely friendly, the breakfast was delicious and we really liked the swimming pool as well!

It was by far the best hotel we stayed at in Costa Rica. This brand-new place is incredibly cool and stylish. The decor was stunning, and everything was spotless. Having a kitchen in the room made us really happy, and having a private jacuzzi in the garden was amazing. The hotel staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. I absolutely, without a doubt, highly recommend it!
