Our family travels nearly half the year, across continents and lodging types, and NEVER have we received such a warm, thoughtful, and over-the-top welcome! I mentioned when booking that we'd be staying the night of our youngest daughter's 2nd birthday. Some accommodations place a little note in the room; I thought it'd be a nice touch for her baby book. The host reached out prior to our arrival stating they'd do a little something for her and I was already so touched. But when we arrived, we walked into a chalet filled with personalized balloons, a birthday sign, cupcakes, a candle, AND a note. Needless to say, both our girls were elated and my husband and I were completely blown away by the host's care and love toward our littlest. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts!! You made a long travel day so special, and a little girl's 2nd birthday an unforgettable one! On another note, the chalet itself is beautiful: modern, nicely situated in nature, and possibly the best-equipped rental we've ever stayed in. They have every kitchen appliance under the sun, a very obvious 1st aid kit (just in case), and a wonderful washer out back. Even more impressive is how spotlessly clean the place was - we were amazed! We'd highly recommend!

Fabulous little house with all the facilities you need. Simple but cosy and feeling comfortable and homely. Diego and his wife are wonderful kind hosts who assisted us in many ways. We can't recommend them enough. The house is right on one edge of town near all the shops and a couple of bars restaurants and very easy access to the Volcan Tenorio. Off road parking was useful too.

The location was perfect for me because I was backpacking on foot, the place is only 5-10 minutes walk from the highway bus stop. There is also a protected forest reserve right beside the property so I was able to see sloths, monkeys, toucans, butterflies, etc

My girlfriend and I had a great stay at Myra Chalets. Check-in was smooth, Internet was good and we sampled delicious limes from the tree right out front. It felt cozy and homey, the land was quiet but also close to many nearby destinations. The restaurant 5 minutes away had excellent local beef steaks and we hope to return and see all the natural sites in the area including national parks, waterfalls and volcanoes. Recommend this peaceful cabin especially for couples :)

What an amazing place! The cottage is easy to reach, yet you feel completely immersed in nature. The kitchen had everything we could possibly need, and the complimentary coffee was such a treat. Sitting outside, you overlook the beautifully maintained garden, and the host, Anna, even lets you know when sloths are spotted in the trees—a truly unique and wonderful touch! In the area, we loved relaxing in the thermal baths, hiking up the Miravalles Volcano (challenging but so rewarding!), and visiting Rincón de la Vieja. We also took plenty of time to simply unwind, which fit perfectly into our travel plans. On our way there we passed by Rio Celeste, another absolute highlight and well worth a day trip.

Owner was very accomodating. Breakfast was delicious and chef Isabel was delightful! Visited nearby "Aqua Celeste." It was lovely. The pool is a nice size & safe depth for children. In my opinion, this property is a little too big & kind of expensive for just 1 person. It would be great value for a big family or couples vacationing together.
