“Staff were very accommodating when we arrived at midnight after a delayed flight. Waking up to the beautiful garden grounds in the morning was a delight and the breakfast was delicious. ”
“Stayed just one night to be close to the airport. Easy check in & comfortable room. Beautiful grounds & the nicest people served a delicious breakfast. ”
“The view and the pool were the highlights. However, it was a great property and stay all around!
Unrelated to the actual property, but be mindful of having a 4WD car in Atenas and Costa Rica in general. It will make your life easier.”
“5 stars – Best Hotel Experience in Costa Rica!
I’ve stayed at a few different hotels in Costa Rica, but Vista Canyon Inn stands out as the absolute best. From the moment I arrived, the experience was smooth, relaxing, and incredibly welcoming. The staff was so accommodating—always friendly and ready to help with anything I needed. The atmosphere was peaceful and perfect for unwinding, whether by the pool or just enjoying the beautiful surroundings. I truly had a wonderful experience and can’t……
“Super kind and helpful owner picked me up from the airport at night and made a side trip to an ATM that he knew would be operating at 10 pm. The ATM in baggage claim was empty and many ATMs shut down before 10pm. I had an 8am flight the next morning and my destination has no banks or ATMs and many businesses there don"t take credit cards. The owner really saved my bacon and was very gracious about it. He charged a very fair price for the service. This is a very basic place, but looked clean. A……
“Great location, just next to SJO airport (so airplanes flying by on top, but not during the night) and supermarket, with gated parking lot. Owner is friendly and easy to communicate. 2BR with small equipped kitchen and living room. ”
“Very clean and convenient to SJO airport. English spoken, and extremely helpful concierge. Extremely reasonable rates for the traveler on a budget that needs a rest before or after a flight.”
“La persona que nos antendio muy amable.
The lady from the hotel very kind.
If you want to stay near to the airport this would be a good stay for a night. ”
“Sweet atmosphere, design is authentic to the local area, beautiful gardens, nice staff, good food, free breakfast includes eggs, rice and beans, fruit, juices, good value, especially if you have children and need a suite. ”
“Great place to stay if you arrive late or are heading to airport early, as it’s only 5min drive.
The owner can arrange transport to airport for 15$.
The house was very clean and exactly as described, would defiantly stay again.”
“We were greeted by our host Darren on arrival. He had been communicating with us after our booking to guide us in our aero. Beautiful courtyard in this boutique b&b. After our arrival in the evening, we stepped next door, purchased a beer and snacks, and walked thru the neighborhood, and found a great bench to sit and enjoy the evening. We slept in comfort with the window open - very cool breeze!”
“Absolutely perfect! The facilities are first class, clean and well maintained, but it is the helpful and friendly staff who make it so special. The front desk staff were perfect, and the chef at the free breakfast, Minor, showed us around all the wonderful new fruits, and Tifara helped us arrange a late check out to coincide with our shuttle. We will be coming back! BTW the outdoor gardens are beautiful and worth a walk, tidy landscaping ”
“I would have liked a clean pool. I suggest that tou have a book with instructions on what to do regarding the washing machine, garbage, etc. More pots and pans so you can cook and not have to eat out everyday. Other wise it was nice. ”
