Very cute little spot , just stayed for a night, great location close to Poas Volcano and La Paz Waterfall which were the spots we visited.
Yailen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was one of the most incredible stays we’ve ever had. The views, location, and scenery were breathtaking, and the room was both beautiful and practical. We stayed in the King Suite overlooking the valley, which also had a small rooftop area offering an even more stunning vantage point. From the suite, we could see donkeys and cows roaming below, which only added to the charm and natural beauty of the setting.
