“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……
“La Terraza Guest House is a beautiful property surrounded by beautiful foliage in a park like setting. It is in a serene setting where all you'll hear are the songs of the beautiful birds in the morning. There is a hot full breakfast ready every morning to get your day started, along with a fruit smoothie, coffee and tea. If you love seeing hummingbirds, you will get an eyeful. There is a river that runs through the property and if you love the sound of flowing water, this is for you! It is……
“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. ”
“Matt went above and beyond to not only make sure we had transportation from the airport to the hotel but he set us up with transportation to where we needed to go the next day. Seriously made my stay allllll that much more enjoyable and smooth sailing. Seriously couldn’t thank them enough. Even his kids are well mannered and helpful! Great family, and family business they have! ”
“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. ”
“the hotel is very cozy, the vibe is so nice but personally I faced two problems first I really want to have a TV in my room second the breakfast style is nice in general and fixable, but the options are so limited only eggs no cheese or vegetables and for the bread only butter no jam or any type of cheese.”
“We stayed here (as many people do) before an early morning flight out of San Jose. Check in was quick and friendly. They arranged our taxi pick up at a great rate to the airport for the morning which was much appreciated. The apartment was large with a nice kitchen, outdoor seating and a large bedroom and bathroom. We had a decent dinner nearby and we slept very well on the comfortable bed. Overall, a very good experience.”
“El Silencio Lodge & Spa is an excellent retreat for a solo traveler. 5 star treatment across the board. The staff were welcoming and helpful. They took care of my every need. This property offered everything from food, drinks, spa, outdoor experiences, complimentary amenities and wellness activities all on-site. I felt safe and secure in this luxury environment that far exceeded my expectations. Best foodie experience ever!”
“The moment the door of the property opened, I felt like I am looking at a slice of paradise, compared to the views I got on the drive from airport to the property. The room I stayed in is tastefully decorated, with a deck that sees a very good angle of the cloud shrouded mountain. The hosts are so flexible. The breakfast was simple but delicious, with good quality plates and utensils. Compared to the United States, my stay here felt like staying at a 4.5 star resort but paying for a 3-star in……
“Absolutely beautiful property. Stunning views from pretty much every room. Our room has the mountain view. Breathtaking.
Pool was small but perfect size since the hotel wasn't packed. Food was excellent! Room service excellent! Staff was excellent! Loved this place! ”
“We arrived at the property late at night due to our arrival time. The owner was very helpful in helping us locate the property at night. The view was incredible, very quiet and serene. It gives “a cabin in the wood” vibe; I love the property.”
“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.”
