"Wonderful Peaceful Stay in Lush Bijagua Retreat"

10.0

Hana's Celeste Retreat was fabulous in a number of ways. First, Bijagua is really traditional community right on the highway. It is not a flashy touristy place. The benefit of that was that we were able to have several excellent traditional meals, Casados (meaning "married man"), which were well priced, tasty and satisfying meal consisting of white rice, black beans, a protein (beef, chicken, fish, or pork), a fresh side salad, and sweet plantains. It is great! Second, the hosts were very welcoming and attentive. Third, the retreat is within a small old growth forest filled outfitted with a small network of well-maintained trails and supporting creatures from sloths to kinkajous. The serious birders in the family went crazy searching the trees for new species to add to their life lists. Each morning was greeted by the howler monkeys making their other-worldly, breathy, gutteral calls. Fourth, the location is good for visiting the nearby Heliconias Hanging Bridges and the Tenorio Volcano National Park. Finally, the facilities were clean and comfortable. The kitchen and bathrooms were quite adequate for our family of five. The patio was our hang out spot for reading and sipping drinks. Keep in mind that Bijagua can be rainy and steamy. We were very thankful for the AC units in the retreat. The master bedrooms was very comfortable while the two smaller bedrooms were a little dark and did not have AC, so it is wise to keep the doors open with AC running in the rest of the apartment to generally cool the space. This worked for us and we slept very well. We loved our stay. Thank you Kamal and Bertha.

There was not much that we didn't like. There is a unit right next to ours that shares a patio, so if it was occupied, we may have had a little less privacy, but even so, it would have just added another more social dimension to our stay.

"A lovely home set in glorious location in real Costa Rica."

10.0

An exceptional find - beautiful location with well groomed walking trails through jungle, fields, and views. Beautiful gardens. The house was very comfortable for a 3-generational family of five. Lovely covered veranda, toys for kids, great grill. Even a sloth and monkeys! The private tours available were awesome.

"Host Kam is great.. friendly, quick to respond, and very accommodating and a good value. We would return."

9.0

Beautiful location, quiet, safe, screens on windows, well equipped kitchen, great for 2 couples or more, nice walking paths, close to town. Great hike with hanging bridges nearby and a good price.

Living room furniture wasn’t so comfortable… patio benches are hard but the glider is great! A couple of the twin beds are a bit hard.

"Spacious villa with beautiful gardens and trails, but also close to conveniences"

10.0

Villa was spacious and clean with beautiful gardens and forest trails surrounding it. Owners did a great job communicating. Really enjoyed sitting outside and enjoying the views. Saw toucans and howler monkeys while staying there. Appreciated being able to use the washer and dryer, although the washing machine is way different than what we have in the U.S. recommend looking at some of the videos out there for "Good ideas compact twin washing machine" to understand how to use it.

It didn't bother us because no one stayed there while we were there, but I didn't realize before arriving that there is another rental unit that shares the same roof with this villa (a breezeway separates). If both are occupied at the same time the stay might not feel quite as relaxing and private.

This was a wonderful retreat for our family. We had plenty of room to spread out and enjoyed being able to cook our own food. The wildlife we saw on the property was the highlight of our trip. The hosts were very helpful and quick to respond to whatever we needed.
