"Un lugar sin privacidad. La parte frontal de la habitación es de vidrio( Sucios) lo que expone a los huéspedes a la mirada en todo momento de cualquier persona.

Parquear es todo un reto, especialmente con un coche grande y con otros coches en el parqueo. Para salir de la propiedad hay que bajar del coche y digitar un código, lo cual me parece una...

Top Santa Cecilia Hotel Reviews

Hotel Hacienda Guachipelin

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic Glamping Stay at Hacienda Guachipelín! We loved our stay at Hacienda Guachipelín, especially the glamping! Our tent had a private plunge pool (the hot tub is by the main pool) and was tucked away from the busy hotel area. The complimentary breakfast delivered to our tent was incredible—and huge! Eating outside in the cool morning air while watching white-faced monkeys was unforgettable. Just keep an eye on your food: the monkeys can be aggressive. We moved our trays inside and they left us alone. Dinner was excellent too. Although the main restaurant was closed during the off-season, both menus were available, and we enjoyed wine, dessert, and live music. The guided volcano hike was reasonably priced, with a great guide. We also loved the hot springs (98–104°F). Evenings are quieter, but some pools start closing for cleaning around 5 p.m. Don't miss the modern lookout point with its hanging cargo nets and gorgeous views! A few tips: Download WhatsApp to contact the front desk, get maps and menus, and order breakfast. Bring bug spray for hikes. The golf cart can pick you up at the glamping tents, usually within five minutes—great for anyone with mobility concerns. Breakfast trays are collected roughly 90 minutes after delivery; you can also request indoor setup to avoid the monkeys. Beautiful property, great food and so much to do. We'd happily return!"

Buena Vista del Rincon Eco Adventure Park, Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Professional, accommodating, friendly, English speaking staff throughout. Facilities well maintained and clean. Hot springs one of the best in CR, with a variety of temperatures to suit anyone, and natural steam sauna, a nice compliment. Complimentary breakfast very good and plenty of healthy options, including vegan options. Bravo!"

Nandel Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel, good location"

Santa Maria Volcano Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"The meals were delicious, the room was always clean, a few dogs helped to make it feel like home. This family run ecolodge was perfect for a relaxing week. Rosa and Yoki had their chef prepare a wonderful little birthday celebration for me…how good is that!!"

Borinquen Thermal Resort

"Very good."

Blue River Resort & Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent

"Loved everything about the property lush, tropical, sounds of birds and animals. Just what everyone needs to relax."

Canon de La Vieja Lodge

8/10 Good

"Our A/C didn’t work. Hot night of sleep"

Malekus Mountain Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely magical. Pictures do not do Malekus Mountain Lodge justice - it's truly so special and lovely, a work of art not just a place to stay. Roger and Rosey were kind, attentive hosts. The location was beautiful. We had wonderful breakfasts on site and a fantastic dinner just 600 meters away. With only 7 rooms and an intimate feel, this would be a perfect place for a family reunion, small destination wedding, or friends trip. Do know going in that the rooms are small and intimate, and there is no air-conditioning. However, the climate was temperate and the rooms and lodge are well-suited and comfortable. We loved everything about our stay - except for that we didn't get to stay longer! Already hoping to come again!!"

Cabañas Don Ramiro

8/10 Good

"The room was nice and the breakfast very delicious. The pool was closed, there was no water in it maybe they renovate it, not sure. To get there is quite a long drive on gravel roads but we enjoyed seeing so many birds in the morning."
