Wonderful place, kind people, close to the nature. And they have their own trails, you can even swim in the blue waters river after a short walk.

Amazing hotel near Tenorio Volcano, with great gardens, trails to the Celeste River and beautiful villas. The hotel has a relaxing pool, nice coffee shop and a great restaurant.

One of the top three nicest hotels I've ever visited. Hideaway Rio Celeste was absolutely stunning from top to bottom, I only wish we had more time to stay. I had seen the property before and thought it was gorgeous, but was nervous to book a luxury hotel with an unpredictable, potentially crying, infant. Hideaway Rio Celeste was so welcoming to us, and happily provided a travel crib. First of all, the location itself feels like a private oasis and was the perfect halfway point between La Fortuna and Liberia Airport. There's not a ton around in terms things to do and places to eat, but the hotel essentially provides fantastic options for all of that. We only stayed for one night but would definitely come back for longer in the future. The morning before our checkout, we hiked the hotel's exclusive trails to Rio Celeste, and were able to swim in the gorgeous water (which you can't do if accessing the river from the National Park.) There were two difficulty options, and the Armadillo Trail was perfect for us with our infant in his carrier. We ate both dinner and breakfast (included) in the restaurant and it was wonderful. (They're also in the process of building a new Asian restaurant that it seems will be finished soon.) The wait staff was absolutely wonderful, the dinner entertainment was fantastic. Yes, the meal was a bit pricey but was fairly consistent with what we'd found for pricing throughout our stay in Costa Rica. We also had the best time watching the many, many exotic species of birds in front of the dining room window while we ate breakfast. We stayed in an absolutely stunning Garden View Casita. It was so private and so spacious. So many nice touches eveywhere-- including a private viewing porch and an amazing outdoor shower. The beds were so comfortable, the AC and water pressure were amazing. Again, just sad we didn't have more time to spend there. We'll be back!

Everything is exquisite about this hotel. All so beautiful, tucked into the rainforest. It was pouring rain a lot of the time and that didn't deter us at all...the pool was heated and the jacuzzis SUPER HOT... Umbrellas everywhere for walking around...The staff was incredible...always smiling and sincerely friendly. Great location for day excursions to waterfalls, night frog hikes, hanging bridges, river floats etc...

We were greeted right away by the cute bartender Anthony with delicious welcome drinks. Rachel at the front desk checked us in really quick and had the room ready for us. Juan Pablo helped us bring our luggage to the room he was always super helpful. The room was beautiful and very well decorated with an amazing balcony overlooking the forest..we actually got a monkey that visited us the one night. All the Staff at this place are so nice, a lot of them are just starting and love that the owner lets them learn as they go..I was lucky to meet the owner Angelo at the bar..he even got me a drink in the house..a very nice man down to earth and from what i heard from the staff he is an amazing boss to work for. the pool was fun..met Josue the bartender/waiter who always had a smile on his face. jason The barista and bartender was also super nice and takes pride at what he does. the one day I decided to have a massage and the guy was so great his name is Juan carlos and recommend 100%.. i came out like new. All the other staff members were wonderful and knowledgeable..Mariano, Katherine,ismael,cristian,Emily,Nahomy. the manager Nelson was super attentive at anything we needed...the cleaning guy Daniel even tried to help me looking for the sloth ..front desk was also amazing with anything we needed Oscar and Manfred great people. we saw lots of animals in this property and our favorite part was the blue river that goes through the property..also loved that Rio Celeste waterfall was not far from the hotel..we actually walked from the hotel all the way there. Can't wait to go back to this place and its wonderful people. Alex and Ted

A luxury hideaway in the rainforest! We loved our quiet, private bungalow with its beautifully carved wooden furniture, canopy bed, and the gorgeous outdoor shower set in its own little walled garden. There is a little trail down to the scenic Celeste River on the property. Be sure to book a night tour to have a guide show you all the creatures you wouldn’t notice otherwise, including venomous snakes! The staff are super friendly and very helpful in booking activities. The nearby hike into Tenario National Park is well worth the effort (there are some steep climbs and lots of stairs to see the waterfall). Tubing on Rio Celeste was really fun. And, at the end of the day, the resort’s pool, hot tubs, and swim-up bar are idyllic. The open air restaurant is gorgeous, the food is really good, and there was live music at dinner. We can’t imagine a nicer place to stay in the area.

Would love to see them off some low season discounts for those of us that live in Costa Rica so we could take even more staycations here…

The Hideaway is exactly that…. It is peaceful, beautiful and provides you with everything you need to unwind, take a walk, swim and lounge in the fantastic pool with hot tubs to soothe. The staff is amazing and the grounds and villas are gorgeous.

Temperature of the pool was too hot. The interior design of the spa could be more in line with the aesthetic of the rest of the hotel.

Having to leave!

This is such a special place. It is tucked into the rainforest and located on the Rio Celeste. There is a hiking trail and direct access to the gorgeous river, beautiful pool, tons of wildlife and exceptional food. The staff was phenomenal (thank you especially to Nelson, Jason and Ismael!). Our room and the entire hotel felt so luxurious but not pretentious at all. We were really blown away. Definitely one of our favorite places we have ever stayed. Can't recommend highly enough!
