"We had a wonderful stay. The property is beautiful, peaceful, and surrounded by nature. It was the perfect place to relax while still being close to the airport. The staff was very friendly and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. One of my favorite parts was waking up every morning to fresh coffee from the farm. If you’re looking for a unique place to stay in Costa Rica with beautiful views, quiet, great coffee, and excellent service, this is the place. We would happily stay here...

What's the difference between 5-star and 4-star hotels in Central Valley?
If you decide to book a stay at a 4-star hotel in Central Valley, you'll usually find lots of amenities to make sure you're comfortable, such as a pool, gym and restaurant. You can enjoy high-quality service and upscale surroundings. Go for a 5-star hotel and you'll get a few more bells and whistles — think on-site spas, 24-hour front desk and opulent turndown services. You're likely to get additional amenities and exclusive services at a 5-star getaway, though both are superb options for luxury travellers.
