Guest Reviews
- Arroyo (8/5): - Las instalaciones Calidad precio
- Steven (10/5): Great property, value and host - We loved everything about the property, there is a great story behind it. Carmen is a wonderful host. She is very knowledgeable and accommodating. The breakfast was outstanding and not to be missed. Nothing to dislike
- Mongefa (10/5): Paz absoluta en la montaña: Desayunos y cenas increibles y hospitalidad pura. - Nuestra estancia fue una experiencia maravillosa, un verdadero Shangri-La de calidez humana. Aunque el alojamiento es sencillo (un contenedor convertido en cabaña), el verdadero valor reside en la atención de Doña Carmen y su hija Cristina, quienes nos recibieron a mi hijo Gabriel y a mí con un amor que nos hizo sentir como en casa. El desayuno es fenomenal, destacando el café de su propia finca y productos frescos de gran calidad. Una atención servicial y personalizada en un entorno natural lleno de esplendidez espiritual. Hay un sendero maravilloso. ¡Totalmente recomendado! Haberme quedado solo una noche!!
- Jose (9/5): Beautiful Place!! Carmen and Christina were great and inviting. PURA VIDA!! - Beautiful Place in the mountains!!! We were a little cold but we should have brought warmer clothes.
- Volodymyr Kazchenko (10/5): - Надзвичайно гарне і тихе місце, дуже приємні господарі
- Luis (10/5): Días llenos de paz y amabilidad en las montañas - Pequeña cabaña clavada en las montañas. Con una paz y belleza mágica. Pero lo mejor fue el servicio de Doña Carmen y Cristina. Desde que uno llega se siente bienvenido. Nada. Este lugar es para personas que aman la naturaleza y desconectarse. Muy recomendable
- Peter (10/5): - Frühstück und Abendessen sehr gut
Gastgeber sehr freundlich
Aussicht wunderschön
- Miguel (10/5): - Es un lugar francamente hermoso. Silencioso, tranquilo, excelente para descansar y alejarse del bullicio de la ciudad.
Excelente atención.
Doña Carmen nos recibió como si fuéramos de la familia.
Delicioso el desayuno.
Definitivamente deseamos volver.
- Giovanni (10/5): - La gentilezza e la disponibilità di Cristina e di sua madre Carmen hanno reso il soggiorno davvero speciale. L’ambiente era molto pulito e curato, e la colazione era ottima, con prodotti freschi e preparati con attenzione. Un’accoglienza davvero calorosa che ci ha fatto sentire come a casa. Inoltre molto vicino al parco naturale del vulcano Poas.
- patric (9/5): - Accueil chaleureux.
Container aménagé avec goût et fonctionnel. En pleine nature. Parking à côté
Très proche du P.N Poas (7km) . Rien dans le logement mais pourquoi y a t il des taxes à régler en supplément ?
- durand (9/5): Un accueil et un petit déjeuner fabuleux - L'emplacement est parfait, à proximité du volcan Poas. Nous avons mangé notre meilleur petit déjeuner du Costa Rica : exceptionnel ! L'accueil était très chaleureux.
- Lisa (10/5): - Super herzliche Gastgeberin und ausgezeichnetes Frühstück! Das Zimmer ist auch sehr sauber und liebevoll hergerichtet. Sehr kurzer (aber steiler) Weg zum Vulkan.
- Susanne (10/5): Kleinod mit Komfort in der Abgeschiedenheit und Herzlichkeit zu einem sehr guten Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis - Eine außergewöhnliche Unterkunft, mitten in der Natur und trotzdem in der Nähe zur herzlichen und liebevollen Host. Carmen hat unseren ohnehin sehr genussvollen Aufenthalt an diesem besonderen Ort mit ihrer Herzlichkeit und ihrem köstlichen Frühstück perfekt und unvergesslich gemacht. Wir waren froh, hier mehr als nur eine Nacht verbringen zu können. Absoluter Luxus ist die vielen auf eigenem Grundstück geernteten Früchte und den hauseigenen Kaffee trinken zu dürfen. Fast alles beim Frühstück kommt aus einem Umkreis von 100 m. Unfassbar in der heutigen Zeit. Unbedingte Empfehlung und wunderbare Tage!
- M (10/5): - A wonderful place in a beautiful location. I enjoyed the views, the trees, the peaceful surroundings, the many different birds and the sunsets I watched from the porch. But beyond all these beautiful things, arguable the best part of staying here is the host Carmen, an amazing person, who has made this little paradise together with her family and who also prepares a delicious breakfast (for humans and the birds that you get to watch while having breakfast).
- Gustavo (10/5): Un lugar de paz y tranquilidad - Excelente lugar , es estar en medio de la montaña rodeado de pura naturaleza , el trato de Cristina doña Carmen y familia fue exelente 100 % recomendado.
- Cristhian Giovanny (10/5): - Es un lugar muy hermoso, muy tranquilo, rodeado de mucha naturaleza. Algo lindo a destacar fue el trato de las dueñas del lugar, son personas muy lindas que te hace sentir como en casa. Nosotros pagamos el desayuno y estuvo demasiado rico, lo disfrutamos mucho. Espero volver en otra ocasión.
- Velga (10/5): Exceptional - Not far from Poás volcano. The shorter road is quite steep but not the worst I had in Costa Rica I think it only took me just over 5 minutes.
This was the most comfortable bed from all the places I stayed at.
And the cabin is so very nicely built and decorated that you can tell that the quest's comfort is the priority for the hosts.
- Laurent (10/5): Wonderful stay in this family, they welcome us as their family, always available to answer our questions and to make us - It is very calm, beautiful view, green and relaxing. Kitchen was full of accessories.
- Davis (10/5): One of our favorite stays - would be happy to return. - Lovely location on lower slopes of Poas Volcano. Quiet. Private. Wonderful view. Deck to relax outside. Excellent bird watching. Carman and Cristina are friendly, attentive, and interesting people. Breakfast is worth the price. The only potential drawback for some people is its remote location. Reaching restaurants after dark is not convenient. Better to bring your own food or eat a larger lunch in the afternoon. (There is a modest kitchen that has a hot plate.)
- Cindy (8/5): Very good - Amazing breakfast, nice and peaceful place to stay. Super nice host.
- Maarten (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gaston (10/5): Wonderful cabin, wonderful views, great location and wonderful host. - Fantastic location, fantastic cabin, incredible view, really friendly hostess, much privacy, delicious and large breakfast! Shower was not very warm
- Adam (10/5): The place you must stay. - Definitely all. Before arrive you recieve all necessary details to easily find the place. The spend the night in the house like that is extraordinery experiance. Land lady Cristina is absolutely awesome person who shows you their farm next morning. To Volcano Poas it takes 45min, if you have 4x4 than 20min. We spend only one night there we wish more.
- Alon25 (10/5): Exceptional -
