The views do NOT get any better than this. It’s not the most modern but it’s better than some 5 star places I’ve stayed. And I travel a lot. Highly recommend and definitely get a 4x4\. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/CDD6F6FC9F511231425BDBA1C1172590F59E28E81735301407871.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/A5BC3692F3A40041429D54522CF461554A1F128D1735301490613.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2FC72BADBDBE19BB0DEF15B060F050102B1F59BB1735301489342.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/674303AC604B61E137BE8530B061AF33E3B3CE7A1735301493386.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Daniel Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Emily 13 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Gorgeous Views Absolutely beautiful views. I was there in the low season, so the restaurant was only open for breakfast. It was good food, small portions. Inside the cabina has a full kitchen, living room, and bedroom, with a good sized bathroom as well. It is super spacious and has an amazing balcony/patio with a hammock, rocking chairs, and table/chairs. it is a super steep rocky hill to drive up, somewhat challenging at night. ##### Emily Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### chris 16 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities What a great fine alturis was! Fun accommodating staff. Cool setting, incredible views. And the red snapper dinner was the best i've ever happened! Hope I get a chance to go back. ##### chris Stayed 6 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Charles E. 16 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Paradise overlooking the ocean! We booked this last minute as an alternative to our more rugged lodge in the mountains. It was a perfect antidote! The staff was exceedingly friendly and helpful, the location overlooking the ocean was breathtaking. The food was probably the best we'd experienced during out 10 day Costa Rican visit! Would definitely return! ##### Charles E.

Staff is extremely friendly and accommodating (shout out to Casey). Consider that car is necessary ideally 4x4 as all roads in area are dirt and not all are well maintained. Part of the beauty of the area. Restaurant at hotel is lovely with great selection. A home run! ##### assaf Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Mark 16 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service I stayed at Villas Alturas for 12 nights in December as I was doing some volunteering at the animal sanctuary adjacent to the villas. The property has the most stunning views from the terrace and pool area overlooking the coastline. It is surrounded by lush jungle with all the sights and sounds you would expect. It is quite isolated in its location which is both a blessing and a curse. It is at the top of an 800m gravel single track road on a very steep gradient. If you want to leave the hotel grounds you definitely need to hire a car. The villas themselves were very clean but are very dated. They are still very 1980s in the decor and could def do with a refresh on the interiors. Great space tho. Shower was large and worked well. Small kitchen with fridge, oven and microwave. A few bits a bit rough around the edges but overall perfectly ok. Fantastic views from the villa terrace too. My main gripe was that the pool area was very small (8 metre kidney shaped pool apx) and as such couldn’t handle many people to be there. As a guest I would have expected the pool and terrace to be for guests only, however the reception area was a meeting point for the Alturas sanctuary tours so at times there was a procession of day trippers wandering around the pool area. I was there when people who only came for lunch were allowed to use the pool too. So at times that area became very busy with non paying guests. They definitely need to create an area of separation for guests & day trippers. ##### Mark Stayed 12 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### MICHAEL 29 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great stay.
