Some will find it difficulty to drive or walk down steep hill from reception down to parking and rooms. This should be made very clear as this is not an accessible location for anyone but those who are well and fit.

Very simple, rustic experience as we expected. Very good location, with excellent view from our terrace and situated in a forest. Room was simple but clean, bathroom good, good wifi. Restaurant on site was simple, but had very good food

We liked the rustic "dude ranch" aspects of it.

We love the setting and the views were great.

The walls were thin so very noisy. We could literally follow the conversation from our neighbour who where just talking. There were not much people so it was not a big problem but I can think that if it is busy that it can be.

The rooms looking really nice, cabin feeling. The view is beautiful. The rooms are clean No other facilities than a bed in the room. No fridge, no water cooker, this would have been a big plus.

restaurant already closes at 6pm thin walls - you hear every word that is spoken in the neighbouring room

Not many vegan \ vegetarian options or alternative milks for their delicious coffee but they did accommodate us with a fabulous vegan breakfast

The views from your room and the deep trail into the jungle! Also It was a very affordable stay!

Loved everything about this place! Beautiful hotel that gives off a “chalet” vibe. Gorgeous surroundings, my partner even saw an armadillo in the garden! Very clean, there were many blankets to fight off the cold of the mountains, the bed is comfy, hot shower, staff is really friendly. We bought a bottle of red wine and made use of the wine glasses provided. We stayed 2 nights and got breakfast for free. I read comments about traffic noise, but as a light sleeper it didn’t bother me at all.

First of all, Diego and his family run a great hotel with very kind and prompt hospitality. They included breakfast, helped with excursions and the restaurant offered a nice menu for dinner as well. The excursions that they have on site were incredible. We loved the quick sign up and the caring team that took care of us. We went zip lining and did an ATV tour. Lucas and Isaac were the best. My husband and I were celebrating our honeymoon and the whole team at Mirador made it a very special time. I would 10/10 recommend!!

Breakfast unavailable before 8am (all other CR hotels weve stayed have been from 7am at latest) and quite limited. Would have been nice to have fruit as well.

Great views and location for bird watching. Lots of tours came through. Very helpful staff and v helpfultobe able to use bar area during the day.. Food reasonably priced

Stayed in February 2023

there is a steep walk or drive to and from the room.

This hotel is in a very remote location off of a main highway with beautiful views of the mountains. The restaurant has amazing trout, that is their specialty. The people were super friendly. The bed was quite comfortable as were the pillows. Our room was spacious with a very large shower and plenty of hot water and good water pressure . They provided a body wash/shampoo in the shower, if you’re OK with that you don’t need to bring your own. I always bring my own travel make up mirror wherever I go and I did need it here. There is no heat or air conditioning in the room, but it wasn’t needed. They do provide extra blankets & the Wi-Fi was really good. The humming birds were plentiful and peaceful to watch. They gave us free breakfast because we stayed for two nights. That was a pleasant surprise.

lots of bugs, have to go up and down a lot of stairs/hills but that’s kind of part of the experience

beautiful views, the trek up to the main house was difficult and FYI the restaurant closes at like 4 so you have to either drive into town for food if get takeout if you want dinner. staff was really nice

We arrrived at late evening when it was dark and raining heavily. We had a few misunderstandings with the reception. Finally it was clear, that we had to drive a steep road down to our hut. It took us quit a while, because it was dark and steep. Finally we had to walk some stairs to the hut - it was no fun, we had a lot of heavy luggage and it was raining a lot. It is also quite cold because it's high in the mountains. Suggestion for improvement: Umbrellas also for the guests not only for staff.

The hut itself was very clean, well equipped and you are really remote in the nature.

little bit of highway noise

lovely location empty in rainy season quiet, secluded. zip lining station

The room was a bit cold, there is i.e. no AC or heater to heat it up a bit. Some thicker blankets are provided. A 4x4 car is recommended to get down and even more up from the hotel parking - it is very steep. Thus it is also a little hike from the rooms to the restaurant. The prices in the restaurant are a bit high for the location and in comparison to the overall room price.

If the weather is clear, the views are amazing. It also has a cabin style with the wodden hotel rooms. Wifi is good in the rooms.

The road down to the accomodations was not paved and extremely steep. Our small 2 wheel drive car had issues getting up the hill.

Lovely little cabin in the hills overlooking San Isidro. Clean, unique...no complaints. Watching the birds from the restaurant was amazing. We wanted to stay another night, however our schedule didn't allow.

The views. All was great.

The road to the hotel was a challenge. The walls of the hotel are "thin".

Beautiful view from the room, and restaurant, lots of hummingbirds. good place to cool off after the lower elevations. near the cloud forest parks.

Nothing negative to say, only that the walk from the apartment to the restaurant was quite steep. But it wasn't an issue for us.

This place is amazing!! . When we arrived, earlier than check-in, we were encouraged to sit in the restaurant whilst they checked it was ready. It's a place you can go to for nice food, or just drinks - either way, it's well worth it. There's an inside seating area, but there is also a balcony that looks over their well maintained gardens. They have bird feeders in the garden that you see an array of birds (most excited by the motmot) and other animals (squirrel, coati, tayra!), and feeders above the balcony for the stunning hummingbird. It also has a great mountainous view, being so high up. You could sit for hours!! We walked the pretty steep slope down to our accommodation, which was one of 6 small chalet type, spacious apartments. The shower had hot water, and there were blankets on the bed (which were needed as it gets chilly in the night). They were super clean and pretty too, also with a lovely view. Parking was available. They have trails you can walk - into woodland and forest. There are zip lines that you can pay to go along to. The paths are well maintained and it's not necessary to wear trainers. I would recommend having dinner on the restaurant - I'm not sure there is anything else around - and they had a good selection of food and drink. Staff couldn't be more helpful, they were amazing!! They organised bus tickets and even called the company to make sure they stopped for us. They weren't above and beyond (especially when the first bus didn't stop) to sort everything out. I couldn't thank them enough truly super! We wanted to break up the long journey from Golfito (South-West) to San Jose. We got a bus to San Isidro and was advised (by the bus ticketer) to get a taxi the rest of the 20 minute journey.
