Top Rara Avis Waterfall Hotel Reviews

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, San Jose Aeropuerto, Costa Rica

10/10 Excellent

"Excelente servicio, muy buena atención. Ninguna queja, muy recomendado."

AC Hotel San Jose Airport Belen

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic choice for your first night in Costa Rica, or the final night before a flight home. Two recommendations, book the breakfast, you won’t be disappointed, and book the shuttle from the airport to the hotel and avoid having to pay a ridiculously high price for a taxi. Third time staying at AC Belan, and I will stay again."

Fairfield by Marriott San Jose Airport Alajuela

10/10 Excellent

"Superbe propriété. En plein centre-ville, sécuritaire et très bien entretenu. J'y retournerais sans hésiter."

Xandari Resort And Spa

10/10 Excellent

"I don’t know where to start!! The resort is beautiful! The entire staff was accommodating and excited to be of service. From the moment I pulled out n front of the door Luis was kind and exceptional. Brandon and Dillon handled the reservation and welcome package. Oscar the kitchen/restaurant manager made the comfortable and he made sure every room service order was of high standard. This is not a resort, it should be labeled a retreat. Beautiful waterfalls sprawl the property. There are trails to explore all over. Last but not least, this place is best known for for its renown spa named Ayura. The masseuse hands were graced by angels. For couples if this place don’t get the spark going nothing will. Gorgeous views everywhere you look. Three swimming pools but the sunset pool is the star of the show."

Finca Rosa Blanca Coffee Farm and Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The best resort and experience in Costa Rica - everything was perfect from start to finish, the drive up, greeting, staff service, facilities, the room, the restaurant, the horse back riding, the tranquility- this is not an “Add to my list” it is a “Must do Now” type of world class experience! Book now"
