Villas Cipreses - Hostel

2.0 star property
7.4 out of 10, Good, (6)
"We were in Grecia to celebrate our anniversary and visit friends. Villa Cipreses was an oasis in a hot and humid land. Our room was dated but clean and although they advertised air conditioning there was none. Fortunately we had our own fan with us so we were able to stay comfortable. The restaurant was great and we enjoyed the overall beauty of the blue hydrangeas and other plantings on the property. the owners of the property seem surprised when we arrived but they did provide accommodations...

Villa Hostel

1.5 star property
5.0 out of 10, (4)
"Room without window, terrible light. Reception was like the living room of the family, where they looked TV what we heard. The hostel was located in a main road, very loud. We had to open 2 gates and 2 doors to get in our room. We felt like being in a jail. Much too expensive!!!"

Leave the Cold behind, Winter in the Safe Quiet Paradise of Costa Rica

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (38)
"We came to San Mateo to visit the area and meet with builders for our new property in San Mateo Ecovilla. Ivan and Grace are really great and were helpful with great feedback and recommendations about San Mateo. They have 5 dogs that are very well behaved and friendly, but are also well trained to stay off the terrace of the casita. We had a wonderful time and plan to stay there again."

Fantastic Ocean View Penthouse in Punta Leona

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (33)
"Excellent stay! My only issue was the A/C auto-shut off linked to doors and windows. This should be turned off as it was quite disruptive and uncomfortable at times for a vacation rental."
