Amazing stay!

10.0

This is a must stay if you are in the area. We only stayed 2 nights and wish we had booked more. The facility is stunning, beautiful architecture and craftmanship. Vincent and his wife are perfect hosts. They are welcoming and helpful. The location is great as you can walk to several restaurants.

Relaxed and rejuvenated at this gorgeous hotel.

My 16 year-old daughter and I loved everything about this property! The hotel offers a tranquil, beautifully landscaped, inviting atmosphere with lovely pools. Night swimming in the led lit pool was a refreshing way to end the day. Our tropical shower was a zen highlight. Breakfasts and smoothies were delicious, and both Vincent and Sabine were friendly, welcoming and helpful. The hotel design feels luxurious, providing comfort, privacy, and convenience to the local restaurants and beach. We’re so glad we added 2 nights at Casa Buenavista to our Nicoya coast vacation!

The property was excellent the rooms. Excellent everything was so great. I just didn’t even wanna leave the owners. The couple owners are great people very friendly very helpful. Very caring. I had never been treated so great as I was in their place and my next trip next year that’s where I’m gonna be going. Thank you so much to the honors. We’re having such a great service and breakfast was excellent as well. I am very happy to have found this beautiful place.

A truly wonderful place to stay. The location is perfect – peaceful, surrounded by nature, and still close enough to explore the area. The hosts were incredibly warm and welcoming, and the homemade jam at breakfast was absolutely delicious. We loved every minute of our stay and would happily return.
