Find Places to Stay in Bagaces on Airbnb

Hobbit Cob Cottage is a special place and Angie and William who host this Airbnb are very special people. The cottage is lovely, the breakfasts each morning are delicious and the view is beautiful. We were also lucky enough to experience the famous pizza made in their very own pizza oven. Our whole experience was such a treat!

This is one of most unique AirBnB my boyfriend and I have stayed at. The cottage is custom built using local materials and products. I especially love the glass bottles as part of the structure - Very creative! The stained glasses were so beautiful. Not only that you’ll get your own view of the spectacular landscape right in front of the cottage. After a long day, it’s a great place to wind down, take in the fresh air, and enjoy the natural view. You can also see the stars in the night sky from there. Another favorite moment, one that I didn’t expect to do was jam to Prince in the forest. Can never go wrong with some Prince. It was so cool! (Yes there’s a CD player. Another unique touch.) The space was comfortable. There is a ceiling fan and a standing fan in the room. No AC but that’s okay. You can get natural cool air from the wind. There’s also mosquito nettings so you could leave the windows open if you’d like with the nettings in place. Some other highlights - Conversations with William and Angie and friendly hellos from Bruno and Bunny, William and Angie’s dogs. My boy friend and I really wished we could stay longer. Hope to come back again at a later time. If you’re considering this a potential lodging spot, don’t think about it. Just do it. Pura Vida!

You cannot expect what you will find at Angie and William’s place, because their little piece of paradise is undescribable. They dedicated 10 years of their lives to make this place a beautiful, green farm filled with trees located on top of the hills with an awesome view on the Bagaces valley. The cottage itself is very cute with all the amenities you need. You will enjoy the sunset on the porch warching the birds with the binoculars. In the morning, the couple will welcome you with a fresh homemade breakfast in their open kitchen. Special mention for their two dogs ! You will quickly feel like home. We loved our stay and would be back anytime. Thanx again for everything Angie and William ! PS : if going to hike El Rincon de la Vieja, use Angies walking sticks, very helpful !

The Hobbit Cottage exceeded my expectations. The cottage itself is exactly as pictured. The view is phenomenal. The breakfasts were muy delicioso and the hosts, William and Angela, were so warm and friendly. Everything there is outstanding!

The Hobbit House is as great as all the other reviews made it out to. Angie and William are exceptional host. We felt so welcomed and extremely comfortable the minute we were greeted. The house is just absolutely beautiful and love it was made by the host themselves! We were only there one night as we just planned to pass through and that is my only regret. Having breakfast with William and Angie and touring their farm on our way was the perfect way to spend our full first day in Costa Rica. Last but not least(actually my favorite) do listen to the recommendation to lay in the hammocks at night and look up at the stars. Absolutely amazing. Do yourself a favor and book this place even if only for a night.

Really enjoyed staying at the Hobbit Cottage! William and Angie were wonderful hosts and the location was a great base to explore the surrounding area.

Our stay at the Hobbit Cottage was not only our absolute best Airbnb experience ever, it was also one of my favorite experiences in general, ever. The location is perfect and the scenery, landscape and views are unreal. The cottage itself is a work of art created by hand by the most endearing and thoughtful hosts, William and Angie. William went out of his way to help us secure a last-minute car rental and kindly provided driving directions around the area. The conversation, shared dinner at the delicious restaurant down the street, breakfast William prepared, and of course the ranch itself, with the thousands of trees planted by our hosts over the last 15 years made for and incredible, unforgettable experience. Thank you for making the last leg of our trip perfect.

Very nice hosts and a nice little house.

Good ubication! The hosts pay attention to the needs of the guests !!

We had the most AMAZING time here! It was the perfect location. 15 min from ponderosa adventure Park and a bunch of waterfalls and national parks. There's also a really cool mountain biking/running trail right outside of the property. You MUST order the food at their restaurant. The chicken cordon blue and seafood soup are incredible. The pool is amazing and so refreshing. I loved the ambiance at night with all of the lights and the amazing sunsets every night. It is a perfect location for couples, or even families with young children. There are so many amenities , even including a soccer field, trampoline, playground, etc. It was just above and beyond. The kitchen is great and everything was immaculately clean and smelled so fresh. The family is wonderful and makes some of the wood fixtures in the home. It is decorated so beautifully. We were so sad to leave and can't wait to come back. 10000 stars!

A quiet house with a good location and a lot of privacy. The use of the pool is an impeccable plus. When I was, the restaurant was closed so even more quiet and private. I recommend it to any friend and I'll be back with pleasure :)

Thank you, Horacio and Beatriz. We had a great stay at your place. You have nice amenities and we had a good time. Thanks for everything

I had a great stay! Is a full apartment, with nice patio featuring a hamock, seated above a restaurant bar. An open air, in door soccer field is out front with plenty of action the night i stayed but not disruptive. Horatio was an excellent host!

We loved our stay with Beatriz! Her and her family were so welcoming and helped us with any questions we had. The space was perfect and a great size and the pool area was lovely. There’s a restaurant and bar on the property or you can cook for yourself in the kitchen with everything you need. Great wifi and cute patio with hammock. Highly recommend staying here, it was great value!!

Very close to the center of Liberia, for sure, even if there is a restaurant on the lower floor, no noise is heard, nice place

Beatriz and Horatio were excellent hosts! Very hospitable and quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Clean and comfortable space. Perfect spot to rest for a night, when traveling in or out of Liberia. They even provided transportation to the airport at 5am! Restaurant downstairs also had good food and margaritas!

Very nice place, clean, very comfortable beds. Enjoyed our stay there.

magnificent residence! and not expensive

A great lodge super close to the Rincon de la Vieja NP. Pictures definitely don't do it proper justice. Rooms are sparkling clean and very well maintained. The views from the balcony are gorgeous. Parking can be a little bit of an issue considering super steep, winding and narrow dirt roads within the properties as is the 20km road to get to the lodge from Liberia so a sturdy 4x4 is a must.

Great staff, location and amazing price! I would recommend this place to anyone visiting Rincon :) thank you all for making my stay unforgettable!

All was excellent. Thankful for all of the tips from the staff & the delicious food!

A spot to be cherished. Very kind staff.

The location of the lodge is perfect for visiting Rincon de la Vieja. The staff are very welcoming and efficient. The restaurant is simple and good. The room is large and functional. Good address.

Great hospitality. very nice, respectful and friendly staff. The place was beautiful and clean.

Quick responses! Kept it nice and easy!

Sarah was very accommodating to us. We needed to check out at 3 due to a rental car issue, she allowed us to with no questions asked. The property is located right downtown Liberia and was close to everything. Only downside was that the bed was very uncomfortable.

This is a cute upstairs room on a quiet street not far from the center of town. The place was clean, it has a/c and a kitchen plus television. I got there somewhat late and left early so I didn’t spend much time there but I was happy with the experience. It’s nothing fancy but it’s a good option for a simple place to stay in Liberia.

the best WiFi in Costa Rica, great place. Wonderfully clean. AC is so nice. Everything smells great. Warm water, host was flexible with check out. Couldn’t have asked for more!

Excellent hospitality and service

Saray's apartment is well located and is ideal for enjoying the activities of the Liberia area, its beaches, local and local restaurants and everything related to Rincon de La Vieja. The apartment offers private parking, wifi, heater, a balcony and is equipped with the necessary amenities to be at home. Saray and her husband were friendly and we kept in communication at all times; even with recommendations on places of entertainment and food. The place is good to spend a couple of days and discover what Liberia can give, Saray will do everything possible to make you comfortable.

The Appartement is well situated in the center of Liberia! The interior was lovely and spacious. The Host war very nice and helpful. We had a good time there! Muchas gracias!

Very well located near the center, garage for the night, appreciable air conditioning, very helpful. Good address especially for this price.

Very nice clean apartment in Liberia. Also very secure!

I totally recommend the place. Extremely clean, tidy and in a location that allows easy movement around the city of Liberia. The apartment also has a decoration that makes it cozy and with a style that reminds you of home. 100% recommended.

Great place; close to bus terminals, airport, supermarket, bakery etc. Felt very safe. Place was cute, cozy, warm showers, had a good kitchen with everything we needed and beds were comfy. Just a tad too warm, with only the ceiling fan but overall we really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again. Muchas gracias todos!

Beautiful, cosy little appartment with wonderful host who helped us with some great local tips. Deffinitelly recommendable!

The place is pretty central although it took me a bit to get there because the location it sends is a picture .. But she is super friendly, clean place. And well complete and safe the apartment

This is a nice spot to stay if you’re in Liberia. The space is fairly simple, but offered a safe sleep and the amenities we needed before flying out! There is no A/C, which was our only struggle as we stayed on a very hot day. Melania is super welcoming and quick to respond!

Very Happy with the stay!

Very clean and cozy apartment, many useful kitchen amenities, TV. The host was very nice and welcoming, I was able to understand everything she was telling me even though she didn’t speak English and I didn’t speak Spanish. Highly recommend!

This was a first class operation, as an air bandb host myself I really appriciated the service, friendly atmosphere and clean accommodations. Emanuel speaks very good english, is full of helpful tips and arranged our rental car and airport transfer. The neighborhood is very safe, we walked to downtown twice after dark with no issues and even drank with the locals one night in a closeby bar. Hotel is about a 30 to 45 min drive to many beautiful beaches and an hour to the border with Nicaragua. No issues driving in the area. Will definitely return.

Just book this already!!! We loved everything about this charming hotel. We were treated like family and will definitely be back!

I definitely recommend this place. The family is very willing to help in any way possible and they made our last few days in Costa Rica wonderful by providing transportation for a small fee and setting us up with a last minute adventure! Highly recommend!

Good location. Friendly staff. Immaculate room. Delicious breakfast.

What a charming little oasis! Breakfast was delicious and your hosts will make you feel like family. We loved our short time here and would recommend this hotel to anyone! They were organized and friendly, and some staff spoke excellent English! And even those who didn’t speak English were very interested in communicating with the use of technology, and good old fashioned kindness. We have made new friends and will come back!

Emanuel and his family are so kind and welcoming. Great area for sitting and relaxing. The breakfasts are nice too.

We chose to stay here because it was close to the Liberia airport and we could be picked up from the airport after a long day of traveling (for an extra $25). Emanuel was extremely helpful, picked us up from the airport and dropped us off at a rental car place the next morning (and even helped us arrange a rental car). He also gave us a short tour of Liberia and lots of advice on the area. The rooms were simple and comfortable and the breakfast in the morning was delicious.

This is a perfect stop over if you’re flying into Liberia. Emanuel was always very quick to respond to all messages and even accommodated us on another day when our flights were cancelled due to bad weather. All the family are very welcoming, make you feel at home and breakfast was really good! 100% recommend this to solo travellers, groups and families. Pick up from the airport was easy and a short 10 minute drive to the hotel. We were even treated to a little tour of the city with Emanuel and his family! Muchas Gracias! Richard & Rachael

Perfect place! It has exactly what you need. Nothing more, nothing less. Very kind and attentive staff, and Victor even allowed us to have a very late check-out since our flight left in the evening and no one else needed the room immediately. It's clean, bathroom and shower was nice. Location is great and perfectly distanced from the main street where hoards of birds occasionally chirp their lungs out in unison. 10/10, stay here or miss out.

Good tips

Excellent

Nice clean space at a great price. Convenient location.

The space was clean, centrally located and at a perfect value cost for an overnight stay. I would even recommend as a different alternative for the budget conscience traveler who would like an extended stay. For the price the value is great.

Excellent place!

Simple, clean room in a good location in the city. The 24/hr check in (there is always someone at the front desk) was really helpful for late/early checkin/checkout.

This is a simple place to stay if needing a place to crash before or after your flight. Because of the minimal interior I don’t recommend spending too much time here but good value for a quick turn around. It is very clean and check in is easy. I was a single female traveler and felt safe. However, I was here on a Saturday night and did experience some noise due to it being across the street from a bar. With all that in mind, I do recommend this place. Victor is a great host, he is very helpful, communicative and kind!

Extremely friendly and welcoming hosts. The room was nice and very clean, and the lunch was excellent!

Susanne and Noel are great hospitable hosts! Their house is clean and safe and a convenient location in the city to the airport and the bus stop. I arrived at night to Liberia and their house was a great stop over before heading out to the coast the next day.

Pure Life

I really enjoyed my stay with Susanne and Noel! They are a very sweet couple with super cute kids and a puppy I became best buddies with. The room was super cute and unique and cozy and convenient to have the private bathroom/shower. The fans were perfect for night time sleeping. They were very considerate about the breakfast. Center of town was like an 18 minute walk and it was totally fine or you could do a $3 Uber ride. Felt like you were living with the locals. <3

The two are super helpful and cute. I had a beautiful room with a large bed and a large bathroom. Everything was very clean. The room has its own entrance and WiFi was available everywhere. Noel makes a delicious coffee and helped me find a shuttle. Everything is easily accessible on foot. I would go back anytime.

Susanne and Noel are a couple of impeccable hosts and simple people. Being with them, their two little angels and pets moved me

All excellent.

Very comfortable rooms, all excellent

Excellent. A hotel with very comfortable rooms. Very good attention and the restaurant food is exquisite.

Excellent place, since we arrived we loved it. Super safe and comfortable.

The room was spacious and clean. Great location with secured parking space.

Clean, beautiful place with excellent location. Very close to Cerro Pelado. The breakfast was delicious.

Excellent service and hospitality, beautiful and very comfortable place, Super recommended.

Excellent place. Very safe and clean rooms.

This was a last-minute reservation under difficult circumstances. Karen was communicative throughout the process and the apartment was exactly what we needed for a one-night stay before flying back home. Also, the apartment complex had great music playing during the evening! Very good value.

Very functional apartment for one night with air conditioning! Warm host Zen atmosphere!

This place was so clean and cozy, best sleep we had our whole trip, too bad we couldn't have stayed longer, the peaceful zen and relaxing outdoor area was perfect too, with beautiful relaxing music playing in the garden. It was perfect.

I was unable to stay with Karen due to border closures with Covid-19 but she was extremely responsive and helpful with assisting the change of my booking. Gracias!

Cute little place, we felt safe there. The host is really kind and he was very helpful. He also helped us to find a cheap rental car.

Lovely little suite

A great opportunity to meet and learn from hospitable and local hosts.

Lots of space, very clean, and private.

Great place, convenient location. Great for a couple of friends traveling together. I really liked this place a lot of the loft style, amenities and proximity to Liberia center. I would definitely stay here again!

Clean and stylish apartment. Kenet was very helpful and check in was a breeze. Overall spot on for our one night stay.

Cute decor and had a comfortable night stay. Nice to cook dinner and relax on the couch.

Kenet is an extremely friendly and courteous host! In his loft there is really nothing missing for cooking or for personal feelings (especially the air conditioning is just a plus). We only had a short but very nice stay!

We stayed here for one night after our plane landed in Liberia! Great place to crash after a long day of travel. Had everything we needed, including a secure place to park our rental car.

We initially booked this place because it was close to the airport. But it is MUCH more than that. The loft space is fantastic! Very beautiful place to stay. Could stay for much longer if needed. Has all the amenities needed for longer stay. Very clean. Good AC. Full size fridge. Kenet met us there and let us in. Check in and out was easy. Good wifi and cable. It's close to the highway so could get a little noisy. White noise of the AC drowned out the noise at night. Definitely would stay again! Thanks Kenet!

Great place

Nice relaxing place. A/C works perfect. Great location to beaches and other nice places. Room is better than expected. Roxana is a very nice host. Would go again.

I had a very nice stay at Roxana’s house. It was easy to find coming into town on a bus from the airport. The space was comfortable and I liked the classical spanish style. The bed was firm but still quite comfortable. I was able to make coffee in the morning and and relax by the window or couch. There were also two dogs and a cat who were very cute. Roxana spoke english very well so communication was easy. She is also a sweet lady and we shared some laughs. I would rent here again before or after a flight. The only note I might add about this room (pink) is that it is over the garage. So, if you are a lite sleeper, you might want to choose one of the other two rooms.

Comfortable and central! ❤

All very well, super clean, comfortable and very spacious, in a very good location.

Roxana and her daughter, Lily, were both amazing! We were greeted like family with a hug and a kiss from Roxana and her daughter personally escorted us to some local spots to grab dinner. Definitely went above and beyond and would gladly stay there again. Muchas gracias por todos Roxana y Lily!

My stay at Roxana‘s Airbnb was great. It is a super nice room and the location in the city centre is perfect! I can recommend it everybody!

Welcoming and friendly family. The bedroom was air conditioned and had a great bay window that looked down onto the street. Kitchen had all the basics for self sufficiency. Bathroom was comfy and clean. Roxana's family even provided a secure parking space for my vehicle. I enjoyed my stay.

I really enjoyed the place. Roxanna is a really lovely person. Very central, very clean. I highly recommend.

This place is just as pictured. Very spacious with a huge common area. Easily accommodated our group of 8 people. There were 5 separate bedrooms each with its own private bathroom. One bedroom's bath had 2 doors so we made that the spare bedroom/ bath, as we only needed 4 bedrooms for our group of 4 couples. There were plenty of dishes, plates and platters to use which helped to make cooking and serving easy. There are markets in Liberia to buy groceries, but we also purchased fruits, veggies and breads from street vendors which was great. Mangos and coconut drinks were plentiful, as was watermelon. We purchased marinated meats & sausages from the large market called Peri Lberia, which were grilled; tasted incredible. Only 20-25 minutes to Liberia airport, which was very convenient too. Wish we had time to spend hiking at national parks, but entry was restricted due to coronavirus. It'll be a reason to come back in the future.

The house is spectacular, they are going to have a great vacation !!! Super recommended

The house is spacious and special for families, it is in a very quiet place, the sunset is spectacular

This home and the property it's on is stunning!! Extremely spacious- all four of us had our own room and own shower. There was more than enough space around the house to enjoy time together with the group of friends I had come with. The home is SO clean, the pool is beautiful and we swam in it during the day and night. It's very clean too- one morning we even seen a man draining the fool and filling it with clean water. The farm animals in the distance are so nice to watch and the woman who takes care of the property, Amelia, is a gem! She is so sweet, extremely resourceful and helped us out when we were stranded a few times and couldn't find a ride. I suggest you either rent a car or get help from the host or Amelia when you get here to figure out who can taxi you around for a reasonable fee. This home is SO close to Ponderosa Adventure Park- which is a MUST See, in my opinion. We spent an entire day there and did all the activities (Safari, zip lining, swimming in the waterfall, kayaking, etc.) and were glad to know that home was only a quick 5 minute drive away at the end of our day. Also, this home is only about 45 mins from Coco Beach which we went to one night and it was one big, party you don't want to miss. This home really made our Liberia experience a wonderful one. The only thing worth noting that had us a tiny bit on edge was the geckos and spiders that would show up inside the house at night- although I hear that's normal in many homes in Costa Rica. Once you get over that, you're golden! FYI, the water in this home doesn't get hot- BUT don't let that deter you. It was actually really nice to come home after a hot day and take a shower with semi-cold water. It's not freezing or unbearable at all. It was extremely refreshing!! Thanks so much for the hospitality and I would recommend this home to anyone! Pura Vida!!

Pili's fuss us perfectly. It is spacious and well laid out living area and kitchen. We had more than enough room for all 7 adults and 2 kids. The pool was the peach on the pie.

Super wide and comfortable social area. The kitchen has all the necessary utensils to cook quietly. A very good detail is that all rooms have their own independent bathroom and air conditioning. Despite being super close to the main road there is no discomfort of any kind and you feel a lot of privacy in the house.

The very spacious house, and with all the necessary comforts

Delighted with everything. 100 note

Was a really nice place to stay. They were really kind and helpful!

Excellent accommodation meets all expectations

The place is wonderful, it is close to a variety of hot springs and spectacular views.

Great location for volcano hot thermal travelers. An hour a Away from playa del coco and close to all northern volcanos. Great little villa with WiFi and all you need to cook and relax after a long day of traveling.

Unbeatable hospitality Excellent human quality Ordine cleaning and absolute cleaning. I would go back every year if I could. Really everything "Pura Vida"

The place is very very unique and designed for folks like me who love nature, wild life and adventure. It is not for the typical touristy types who like convenience and luxury. It is real! You will need a four wheel drive to get to the place which is about 1.6 miles from the main road. It is the very last house on that road. The cabin has a single room with a bath room and the kitchen is outside, including the frig. and the gas range (single flame). I believe that everything in this house is designed and made by the host Gaetan and everything is both artistic and practical. I liked the fact that the water was not mildly warm. Every morning at 7:00 Gaetan's wife would bring four eggs for us and we prepared it ourselves. At night the sound of the wind and sometimes the rain on the roof caused me to cuddle into the blanket and appreciate the fact that I am protected by the four walls. Every morning before dawn I sat on the bench to wait for the light that after some hesitation crawled in very quickly. The place transformed me.

We received a warm welcome upon arrival. The cabin is on a very rough road - need a 4X4. Great location near the National Park, with great viewpoint on the property. This is definitely not a deluxe place but for the adventurous traveller it has everything you need. Highly recommend day trip to Rio Celeste waterfall park but be sure to arrive before 2 p.m. when they stop letting people enter the trailhead.

Gaetan's place is quite amazing. It is genuinely in the middle of the forest. Very comfy rooms and amenities, all within amazing green surroundings. Need a 4x4 to get there, but that's not a bad thing. Wish we had more time to explore the area.

Very nice and calm place, really inside the rain Forrest. Nice trtasse to have breakfast or prepare your own meals. We had rainy days, so it was re rain Forrest 😊

Gaetan and his wife are lovely hosts! They are super nice and took extra time to give us a great orientation to the area. We could tell that they really enjoy hosting guests. The rooms are rustic and cozy and had everything we needed to explore rincón de la vieja for a few days. It was great to have the use of the outdoor kitchen for preparing basic meals. Gaetan even provided eggs, bread, coffee, and juice for us to make our own breakfast each day! I definitely recommend having a 4x4 car as the road to his place is dirt/gravel and on a big hill. This place is IN NATURE, so keep that in mind if you are afraid of bugs. Also, Gaetan has two adorable pets, a dog and a cat who are very friendly and liked to sit with us when we were eating breakfast. I highly recommend Gaetan’s place for an authentic Costa Rican experience. Thank you!

All right we were very peacefull on his tips you should hear he was right and helped us so well ☺️

Nice accommodation in the middle of nature. You should not expect luxury, but everything is clean. An outdoor kitchen is available, there are no restaurants nearby. The National Park Rincon de la Vieja can be reached in less than 30 minutes.

This is such a great place ! Right in the middle of Nature, plenty of bird's songs ! It was nice to have breakfast included, and Gaetan gave us great tips for visiting around ! Definitely didn't want to leave that place ! Hope we can come back !

It was an unforgettable time. Breakfast was exceptional. It was enough for the whole day!

Dalia was quick with communication and helped us arrange transportation to the airport the next morning. Her place is around 20 minutes away and even though we did not speak Spanish; the language barrier did not exist. Great quick one night stay if you're heading to the airport the next morning.

Dalias place was nice. We really enjoyed the pool! Dalia was super friendly her food was sooooo tasty.

Dalia is a great and her place is super nice.

We had the best stay in Liberia at Dalias. She and her sister were very kind and welcoming. The breakfast and pool were both outstanding. We hope to be back again soon.

Great place, and the hosts are awesome and the pool super clean

Dalia’s home was exceptional. She was by far the best host I have ever experienced. Her breakfast was delicious and second to none. We literally booked her home twice because it was that amazing. Dalia’s was our home away from home. An accurate description of a true Tica. Though we visited many different locations in Costa Rica Dalia was always mentioned as the standard. Waste no time and book her please. Be aware you will fall in love with her cooking.

Dalia’s place is so sweet! A perfect landing from the airport. She was very communicative on night of arrival making it super easy to get from the airport into a car she called me, and to her home! The place was comfortable and beautiful. Breakfast was delicious and I felt very at home! I recommend this place for folks who desire a semi-private landing place that is stress-free!

I so enjoyed my stay at Marlene’s place and cannot recommend it enough! Marlene is so kind and welcoming - and interesting to speak with and get to know. (And even patiently spoke in Spanish with me so I could practice!) Her apartment is in a great location; the room is spacious and comfortable; and there’s everything you could need. Marlene is such a warm host too - making me feel at home, sharing her food and coffee, and introducing me to her friends and family. I was genuinely sad to leave and wish I could move to Liberia and move in with Marlene! PS Also she has hot water which isn’t common in Liberia!

Marlene is such a lovely individual. She was quick to respond back, super helpful, and in person so bubbly and friendly. Her dog Fray and cat Samy are very sweet. She has a nice outdoor covered space with a table that we enjoyed using. There is a small grocery store with all the necessities about a 5 minute walk away. The 2 large grocery stores in town are about a 20 minute walk away. Her guest room is on the 2nd floor, the windows open nicely and there are several fans to use. It was about 90F during the day while we were there and we were fine with the heat since there was good air flow. We really enjoyed our conversations with her, learning about her soap business (check out Sula Soaps on IG, it's amazing) and hearing about her two daughters's travels.

Be aware that the location on your smart phone may be completely different from the actual location of the house and good luck with finding places in Costa Rica!

Marlene is a wonderful host! I very much enjoyed my stay! Would definitely recommend if you’re in Liberia.

Marlene is a very warm hostess. We were able to approach all the questions she answered with lots of information. She speaks great English and helps wherever she can. The room was nice and clean as in the picture. The shared bathroom was also clean. Marlene cooks soap herself and could tell a lot about it. We just feel very comfortable with her! Thank you, dear Marlene!

Marlene is a wonderful hostess, at all times I felt at home, you can talk to her about whatever The information provided to me to reach different places inside and outside the city was very useful. You can connect with people who will facilitate several things for your comings and goings in the area. I was at home for several days and I definitely recommend it

Marlene is a wonderful host!

Marlene was lovely. So helpful and kind!

Eugenio is quick to respond and flexible. It is a traditional house with a sweet garden in the back. The house is located near the center of Liberia where there are many restaurants, cafes and a lovely museum.

We only spent one night there but the accommodation is nice with a small garden and well located.

Fantastic spot; very beautiful home!

I stayed here with my parents, husband, and our 1 year old. We love this house! It is in a great location where you can walk to most things - restaurants, little market, bank, park, etc. We enjoy eating breakfast at the Posada Real restaurant which is a 1-minute walk from here. Spent most of the time in the backyard which has a beautiful garden and is very peaceful. Will definitely stay here again.

Close to downtown and the Airport. Very convenient place to stay.

Great Place easy to get to. AC was a plus. Will come back.

Get the true feel of a Costa Rican neighborhood! This place is the real deal. You will know when someone close by is celebrating into the night or when someone is singing on their way to work in the morning. Take a walk early morning and watch the city greet the new day.

Beautiful space and amazing garden backyard. Plenty of good food within walking distance.

I definitely recommend this beautiful villa to you. It has an excellent location, the owner is very attentive, the property is beautiful and the super cute villa, in perfect condition, decorated with very good taste and everything is impeccable. We are looking forward to returning!

Of the BEST places we have stayed. Much nicer and bigger than you can see in the photos. An incredible peace and quiet. And although the owner is on par, you also have privacy, because she does not interfere at all. Ceci is a person that one regrets not being able to meet and try a little more. The apartment VERY CLEAN. BEAUTIFUL DECORATED. Thank you very much for allowing us to be in your paradise for a few days. Att: Ana Yanci

Excellent welcome from Cécilia and impeccable accommodation that is very pleasant to live in. Very well located for visits along the Pacific and for walks near the Volcanoes in the North, we took a real pleasure to stay at Cécilia who knew how to give us a lot of good advice. An address that we recommend to everyone. Many thanks for his warm welcome.

Definitely super recommended this place, too nice the house, all very tidy and clean, well equipped and Mrs. Cecilia exceptional, completely satisfied

Super welcome. A very clean apartment with everything you need and a very good bedding.

The place was super clean, relaxing and the kitchen stocked. Cecilla responded to our questions quickly and was a great host. Would definitely stay there again.

Great place to stay, very close to everything, would recommend to everyone

Very quiet, neat place with excellent location. Mrs. Cecilia's attention is very attentive, helpful, special and kind.

An exceptional address: a welcoming family, and a brand new room with everything you need. The icing on the cake: the extra breakfast! An address not to be missed, far from hyper touristy and not very authentic places.

Agutipaca is really a great space. The rooms are spacious and the bathroom area is fantastic. The garden is a delight for birdwatchers. The best is Ana who is so helpful and her personal care and attention is above and beyond. This is how to experience Costa Rica hospitality at its best. You felt at home immediately. I would repeat this experience if I came back to Miravalles / Tenorio for sure.

Excellent place - enjoyed every minute . Will come back again for sure. High recommend

We had a very good time here. Our room was brand new! It was stylish and comfortable. I woke up to sound of birds chirping : ). It is a short drive to Rio Celeste and numerous wildlife tours. I would recommend staying here.

You meet people who want to make you happy, always very caring, really a super welcoming family ...

One of the best places we have stayed in Central America. Its a very lovely family with a great house. Everything is super clean. They helped us with everything and we had a great evening :) Thank you! A very friendly and hospitable family! Very attentive! The room very comfortable, clean and spacious! We slept super good! Perfect to rest. We also liked the city very, very clean and safe, as there were people in the park at night, the excellent location, near the bus terminal and places to eat, from pizza to typical food!

Perfect host, great hospitality

Awesome host family and nice value to stay in Liberia!

Nice place!

Very good place and good price. I arrived after 10pm because my bus was delayed but Elias received me with great pleasure. Very friendly and had more than what you need. I would stay here again.

What a fantastic place. The hosts are fantastic! An excellent example of the hospitality of Costa Rican people. This place is for the adventurous, where many paths cross. Not a luxury hotel but homey and clean. Located right in central Liberia for easy walking to everything.

What a super lovely family! Elías is very knowledgeable and friendly without being overbearing, cooks a great breakfast, and projects and attracts all sorts of positivity. The house is beautiful, with lots of spaces for conversation and lots of flow for the breeze. Awesome!

Loved this place. I needed a room for the night to grab a shuttle the next day for Nicaragua. This was perfect. Centrally located. The owners welcomed me like a King. Thank you so much! I wouldn't hesitate to book here again :)

Elijah is amazing and his family and everything too. It helps me with many things and we had many conversions of many interesting topics. He helps me with Spanish a lot and was afraid to correct me ... and I asked that. My last recommendation! I hope you all understand my bad Spanish. Elías and I agreed that I would speak Spanish and he would speak English and we would help each other. I am a professor of political science with interests in history, culture, and many things. Elijah and I ... and his family and many wonderful conversations.

Staying with George was a beautiful way to start our trip. We had a late flight into Liberia so we wanted somewhere close to the airport. George’s directions were spot on the only flaw was our gringo navigation skills and missing clearly marked signs for the right turns haha. George welcomed us at a late hour with fresh lemonade made right in front of us. We had great conversation and then started our next morning with some fresh Gallo Pinto (Costa Rican staple rice and beans) as well as eggs fried cheese and fresh fruits! On top of all that he gave us great tips on waterfalls that we be on our way to our next destinations. All in all excellent place to stay with excellent food and great Costa Rican hospitality. Thanks George!!

What a great person any host what state are again thank you George

.......

Kind and attentive. Very welcoming and good conversation. 5*

Very knowledgeable and has a lot to offer for your stay.

Great host love the food made you feel like you're at home in his home surrounded by nature

George was truly outstanding. A wealth of knowledge, a great cook, and a kind soul. Made my introduction to Costa Rica phenomenal

Excellent place to stay. Fantastic breakfast and smoothies, great hospitality! :-)

Highly recommended if you like seclusion. Check-in was straightforward. A four-wheel drive car is definitely an advantage.

Beautiful rustic cabin in a lovely forest. So special to wake up and open the windows to a world of green! The amenities are great and to be honest quite high tech for a place so rustic- great flushable toilet, warm shower and fancy sink. More like glamping than camping :) One thing that I would recommend is to try to arrive before dark. We arrived after dark and it was quite difficult to find the cabin/figure out how to open the gate/not be eaten by bugs in the process.

If you like to stay off the beaten path this place is perfect!! It’s super cute and cozy. We loved hearing the sounds of the forest and animals at night. The shower has hot water which is hard to come by in Costa Rica so that was fantastic. You can even open the window and look into the forest while you shower. We loved staying here!

Incredible jungle experience. So much wildlife right outside our door. Comfortable beds, clean space, and everything we needed. Loved sitting on the porch and heading the sounds of the jungle at night. Be prepared for a rough road to get here - 4 wheel drive is a must. Get all food before arriving because you probably won’t want to venture out at night on the road. We parked at the top of the hill on the driveway to avoid getting stuck in the mud.

Exceptional environment in the middle of the jungle immersed in the Ticos. Clean cabin and nice touches.

Silvia was a very attentive, understanding and accommodating host. This was one of my favorite experiences in Costa Rica and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a unique and off the beaten path experience. High marks for cleanliness, especially for how remote of a location it is in the jungle environment.

Excellent place to disconnect.

This is a very special place......if you love the rainforest and the wildlife that goes with it. The kitchen is very small, but totally adequate for the production of good evening meals. The fridge is small and so carefull planning is necessary but was adequate for our 4 day stay.

Please know that this is a hotel set up, as such, there is no guarantee that you will get the room you booked (at least not at this point). As mentioned in the other reviews, I was very much looking forward to reading on the hammock, I asked several times to ensure we would have the room pictured and alas we did not. We also did not receive a welcome drink as advertised, again not a big deal, just want to set expectations correctly. Nevertheless the room was fine, even bigger than the one in the photos and the shower was one of the best we've ever had. Note to the owners: PLEASE invest in new pillows, these are clearly old, worn out, and felt like old balled up T-shirts stuffed in a bag. This was our only real issue and made what would have been an otherwise lovely stay super unfortunate. There should also be a map given at check-in, we arrived in the dark and finding our room on the steep hillside in the rain was no easy feat. The staff was lovely and very accommodating. Be sure you have your guest count correct on the site, as they will charge extra per person over 1 (which didn't make sense to us at all, perhaps just update the total price to reflect what a normal stay would be - we kind of felt tricked by the lower price per night considering the extra guest didnt cost you anything more.) If you are planning to go to Rincon, its about a 30 min drive and you will need cash (70 colones per person) to get through a private gate coming from this location. There are some tours that leave directly from the hotel, but the main adventure tours do not.

Very nice hotel and friendly helpful staff. The room I reserved was not the room I received when I checked in, which initially really bothered me. But the room I received was still nice. I didn’t have the hammock though. The pool was great and the restaurant had delicious food! Really the only thing around for miles, so be prepared to eat here the whole time.

Rinconcito is a hidden gem in the middle of the Rincon de la Vieja. There’s so much to explore around the area but you can also spend the day walking around the grounds and swimming in the pool. The food is all really good. We loved the tacos at night and the breakfast buffet in the morning. Mark is a fantastic host and gave us some great ideas for some local adventures. Thank you to everyone at Rinconcito. We will be back for sure!

Great place - good restaurant.

Location surprised us because it was in the middle of no where but overall a great place to stay.

This is a magical location up in the mountains, filled with flowers and beautiful trees, hammocks, stunning views and sweet puppies and horses. It is perfectly located to visit Rincon de la Vieja, but also don't miss driving through the rolling hills around Miravalles Volcano with charming villages (Guayabo, Fortuna...) and expansive pastures, for an authentic taste of the region. The hotel and restaurant staff is extremely helpful and friendly. The room was clean with a great balcony equipped with a rainbow hammock. The only thing to note would be that it is quite windy there, so the roof can get quite noisy at night, but I didn't mind it and embraced the mood, you are in the mountains after all! I would definitely recommend staying here!

Unbelievable stay at Rinconcito Lodge. Beautiful, quiet, secluded lodge near Rincon De La Vieja. Staff were very friendly especially David at the front desk who shared great tips for activities.

Very nice bungalow with a great view. Good location.

Roxana is a wonderful hostess! We really enjoyed meeting her and she made our short time there wonderful. We only spent one night, but felt very welcomed. We also were able to check in earlier, which was very welcomed! The room has its own washroom,which was a lovely surprise. The kitchen also had all we needed for our simple needs. The bed was comfortable and AC very welcomed. We would highly recommend this place! Roxana also helped me mail a postcard and got us a reliable taxi for 3am! Thank you for everything!

Super nice host, easily located and very comfortable.

Good place to stay, Roxana is a great host ! I recommend.

Roxana was an absolutely wonderful host. We had a very short stay (just one night), but in that time Roxana made us feel so welcome and completely at home. She was incredibly helpful in directing us to places to eat and went above and beyond in organizing transportation for us. She had Juan Carlos pick us up directly at the airport and the next morning organized to have us lovely and kind friend Edgar drive us to La Fortuna. We felt so cared for and safe and Edgar was an amazing tour guide along the way. Thank you so much Roxana!

Only stayed at Roxana's one night after a flight into Liberia, but it was a great place to rest after a long day of traveling! Roxana was a wonderful host and helped us schedule taxies to and from the airport. A quiet a comfortable room to stay in.

I had a great stay, the room was beautiful and private with it's own bathroom. I was looking for a place last minute, within 30 min of booking it I was able to find it and the room was ready when I arrived. I would definitely stay here again. Great location and the family was warm and welcoming.

This is a great place to stay in Liberia. Roxana is a lovely host!

Clean, comfortable place as advertised. Easy walking distanceto shops and good restaurants. Would stay again.
