The views are extraordinary. So much so that we woke up to see the dawn over the mountains, something we almost never do. The cabin felt private and quiet enough to have a sense of solitude, with hummingbirds, iguanas, dragonflies, and butterflies framing the valley, mountain, and Pacific Ocean. At night, there's a line of leaf-cutter ants which was enthralling to me (but gave my wife the heebie jeebies) — if you want to photograph them, do it then as they do not appear during the day. The on-site restaurant was on par with the other food we had in Costa Rica, (the artisanal kombucha was quite nice), though it's the views and the ambience that are the highlight. Inside the room, the kitchenette was small but functional and the provided soaps and shampoos had a nice fragrance. The staff was wonderfully communicative from the get-go, helping us coordinate our transit to the hotel and staying in contact throughout our journey.

Wonderful two night stay. Hidden in the hills of San Mateo this is a lovely boutique hotel. The grounds are immaculate with a small pool and a cute playground for children. Our room was beautifully designed, well furnished with a small balcony to sit and enjoy the early morning or evening. The bathroom was large and included all the amenities of a top rated hotel. Breakfast was lovely and their morning coffee excellent. They have a restaurant but we did not eat there. Great location for a day trip to Jaco and the costal area or a stop on the way to La Fortuna. Enjoy. You won't be disappointed.

Their staff! They were genuinely helpful and super accommodating. They even prepared breakfast very early in the morning for us to catch an early ferry! The dining area was very cute by the pool.
