The property is very unique. We had a room facing the city and is a breathtaking view. The weather is perfect up there : chilly enough to sleep at night and warm enough to enjoy the pool during the day. The staff is great, the restaurant , and the free breakfast is delicious.

Loads of character! Set in the rainforest above a coffee plantation and decorated with unique vintage furniture, this hotel exudes a rustic luxury that gives one the feel of what it must have been like to live in the plantation owner’s house at the turn of the 20th century. The staff were super friendly and helpful. I loved the coffee tour and the claw footed tub with the view out of the round window! The view down to San Jose at night was also spectacular.

I loved the pool and the yoga platform above it with the Buddha ! Very peaceful and lots if attention to details that made it beautiful! Lots of love went into the place. Loved the hiking in the coffee plantation on the mantra trail and even the hike up and down the hill to La burra restaurant. Tho you can get a little shuttle down and up. Staff super friendly and welcoming.

I would stay at Don Ernesto again for vacation next time. The staff are friendly, greeted us every time they see us. Asked if we are good. We mostly stayed out because we were on business travel. The view from the balcony is stunning. Our room is beautiful, to my taste. Over all our experience is great!

We stayed in Atico suite. No doorknob, no bathroom door. no screens or AC, but not really needed. Beautiful grounds. Incredible views I use a cane and I had to really take it slow. but was able to make it around.

Staff was unprofessional, a 300$ room per night deserves better service at check-in and in addition room keys are HEADIOUS wood plank with an old metalic key!

El lugar es perfecto para los que aman la naturaleza, si eres muy propenso a odiar las arañas o los mosquitos puedes odiarlo un poco, fuera de eso.. el lugar es muy tranquilo y la comida deliciosa
