We enjoyed the grounds and restaurant very much! Good food and lots of birds in the morning. Dinner was one of the best meals we had in Costa Rica! Staff was great and handed us umbrellas when we drove in during a downpour. Close to airport as well.

From the front gate guard to the front desk and restaurant staff- everyone was super kind and helpful! The Villa property is absolutely gorgeous. The trail through the forest was beautiful and you’re able to see all kinds of birds. The restaurant had great food. Would 10/10 recommend staying here!

Staff were very friendly. The room was clean and quiet. Just what was needed for our last night after exploring several regions of Costa Rica - hotel chosen as being close to the airport - just a cheap uber away.

What a beautiful little gem in the middle of the city. The rooms were very clean and spacious, and the beds were incredible. The pool was also gorgeous. We ate at the onsite restaurant, and the service was spectacular. The food was good but not the best I've had. Shampoo, etc. in the shower would have been a plus but that is the only drawback for me! Great place and a great price.

8/10 Very good

I stayed at Villa San Ignacio for one night after landing late at the airport before beginning a motorcycle trip around Costa Rica. It turned out to be a very convenient and pleasant place to start the journey. The room itself was fairly basic, but it was clean and comfortable and had everything I needed for a short stay after a long travel day. What really stood out was the property. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained, with a really nice pool area that makes the whole place feel relaxing and tucked away from the road. The restaurant was another highlight. It is a lovely space and a great place to sit down for a meal before or after travel. It added a lot of character to the property and made the stay feel more special than a typical overnight airport stop. The staff were also very friendly and welcoming, which made arriving late in a new country much easier. Overall, Villa San Ignacio is a great option if you are arriving late or need a comfortable place near the airport before heading off to explore Costa Rica.
