Top San Rafael Hotel Reviews

Hotel Punta Leona

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place ! I’d surely come back son"

Hotel Cerro Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay at the Cerro Lodge. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained, and wonderful for bird watching. Our room was very clean and comfortable, and the staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The restaurant was a very comfortable place to be, and the pizza was delicious! Between birdwatching, floating in the pool, and enjoying the restaurant/observation deck, we were able to fully relax at Cerro Lodge!"

Akua Ocean View Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Our suite was amazing. We knew we found a gem as soon as we opened the door. The wall of the ocean side of our suite was entirely a glass wall with massive sliding doors which could open the room up to the patio and private pool (which is maybe about 80 degrees F and very well maintained). The view of the ocean and mountains is surreal. You’re more than likely guaranteed a sunset view, and the sun seems to set for a solid three hours. You can see it from every part of the suite. Even the shower. The horizon is so broad that even rain is fascinating to watch come in. The staff is fantastic too. They cleaned our room and even took care of the dishes, all the while being non invasive and respecting our privacy and belongings. Steven and Lisa’s is a 5 minute drive, there’s a few super minis and liquor stores 3 minutes away. "

Hidden Paradise in La Garita with Private Pool

10/10 Excellent

"My family of six stayed in this home for 10 days, and it was a wonderful experience. The house was spacious enough to comfortably accommodate all of us, and the neighborhood was both quiet and safe. The home was well-equipped with everything we needed. Jeff, our host, even left sugar and coffee for us—by the way, the coffee was excellent!Communication with Jeff was smooth and easy. He was warm, welcoming, and readily provided helpful information and recommendations throughout our stay. We truly felt at home and would gladly recommend his property time and time again.One tip for future guests: if you're arriving at night, as we did, consider coordinating with Jeff in advance to see if grocery shopping can be done and delivered prior to your arrival. Many stores in the area close early, and you may want to have some essentials like drinking water on hand when you get in."

Million dollar view ! On the Beach , Private Tropical Paradise ,Tivives Playa

10/10 Excellent

"Henry was a terrific host. He gave us lots of advice on restaurants and attractions nearby and he responded quickly to any questions we had. The house was nicely situated on the ocean - we sat under the veranda watching the waves roll in, the lightning strike and the ships go by. There was everything we needed in the house. It was a bit out of the way - quite far from Monteverde for example. We rented a car and would have been lost without it.We missed the sunsets because of the weather so will have to come back again!"
