Well maintained, small property (very peaceful) and a great attention to details from the owner and the staff. Warm welcome and very personable staff. The bird feeding, along with the amazing breakfast, was a highlight of our stay. Super close to Rio Celeste too.

Didnt like that we had to leave 😊. We were okay with it but theres no A/C, the temps cool at night and their clerestories and fans help, but be prepared the rooms might remain a little warm — appropriate for the regional climate.

Super quaint, peaceful, artful, well equipped. “Westernized”. Fantastic gardens, birds, breakfast, yoga stage. Super friendly staff. Hot tub nice post-hikes. Great location as frontier to Tenorio area.

This property is a gem--my only regret is that we only stayed one night. Marci and her staff are extremely attentive and have created a beautiful oasis in this bird-watching paradise. The breakfast was the best we had on the whole trip. Our kids and I loved watching the birds eat while we had our breakfast. Marci also has bird guidebooks to reference and it is so fun to see 11 and 8 year old get excited look up birds the "old school way" in a book. :) We hope to come back and stay longer.

So beautiful tranquil

Just be aware, it can be a bit windy in the area!

This is a special place lovingly and professional looked after by its owners. You can sense their care for the place the moment you arrive. The grounds near the buildings are beautifully maintained and then merge seamlessly into the natural rain forest around it. You are welcomed and given a personal tour of the property which is a really helpful orientation. The cabins are very well designed and don’t overlook each other. There’s good hot water and lovely products. Breakfast is wonderful taken on the terrace with stunning birds eating off the carefully positioned bird tables. You can walk around the grounds bird spotting. There’s a lovely jacuzzi and small pool to cool off in. These are kept very clean. The hosts are around making sure you have everything you need to make the most of your stay. We used guides from Bijagua Tours for bird walks and they transformed the local area for us. Without them we would have seen some lovely birds but with them our knowledge and sighting of the local birds was transformed. We were really sorry to leave. I’m almost certain you will be too!

Had a really special and amazing stay here! Every morning we would enjoy a delicious breakfast while watching monkeys and many different types of birds, including several species of toucans. The location is fantastic, we were able to explore several different national parks and the hotel is very close to restaurants and shops in town. The room was really outstanding with so many great touches - espresso maker, wine glasses, bottle openers, outdoor lighting and seating, extra umbrellas, very nice local soaps/shampoos. The staff were very helpful and friendly and we got a lot of great advice on places to hike and where to eat. We had a great time on all of the suggested tours and outings recommended by the hotel (tubing in the river, night hikes, and waterfall hikes).

Only one night in this place:-(

Me and my family spent 11 days in Costa Rica, staying in 9 different places and this hotel was the best I had during the entire trip. Spacious bungalow, very clean everywhere. Extremely nice hosts and a great breakfast with hand-prepared meals. Delicious granola and wonderfully fruity homemade smoothie. And if we add an evening in the jacuzzi, and in the morning a whole lot of birds: ten toucans, chakalakas, Asian caciques (montezuma), a baby or the sight of a sloth with a cub - then if once a year we could give a higher rating than 10 - then the whole my family will even give it a rating: 12 ;-) The best accommodation during the tour of Costa Rica. I would highly recommend ! ;-)

Wish we could have stayed longer.

We loved everything about our stay at this spot. Warm and friendly reception. Comfortable room. Great yoga deck with a view of the jungle. Beautiful grounds. Great breakfast with so many birds just outside our window.

I didn’t use the hot tub because it was only lukewarm.

Beautiful grounds. The cute cottage stayed reasonably cool, without any air conditioning, due to the windows and cross-breeze. The property owners were very helpful in providing recommendations and information on what to do in the area.

Gorgeous grounds, super clean, lovely bath products, helpful and friendly hosts, delicious breakfast - basically everything!

Sueno Rio Celeste had everything we were seeking in the rainforest of Costa Rica: the perfect location for visiting one or all of the three magical volcanoes, a restful sleep after a day of adventure and the unexpected visits of frogs, birds, howler monkeys and flock of Toucans. So relaxing, even a Sloth took a nap there!

I loved the beautiful grounds and the close location to the Tenario volcano, and the Rio Celeste river. The owners, Marcy, and Brian, were extremely helpful in every way. The included breakfast was definitely a plus.

It's a well maintained property close to many activities. The bungalows are clean and cozy.

Nothing. Everything was great!

Sueño río celeste is a gem! We loved everything about our stay and would have stayed much longer had we had the time on our trip. The grounds are beautiful and our room was cosy and clean. The breakfast was exceptional with a large variety of items serviced. The owners of this hotel truly care about their guests and go above and beyond to make you feel at home. We most definitely would stay here again!

The owners were very nice and accommodating to all our needs. The breakfast was very delicious with locally sourced foods. The pool area and large jacuzzi was great and the landscaping, including the jungle walk on the property gave us the real costa rica feeling. The bungalows we stayed in were beautifully done and had a large bathroom. Even though we only stayed for a night we would definitely recommend anyone to stay here.

The place is just perfect! I’ve never experienced so much love for detail, friendly, approachable and caring hosts and a comfortable and beautiful place as this one. The little blue apartment houses are renovated and super clean, you find your own hammock on your porch (I mean how cool!), you have tableware and a coffee machine on your room (including very solid coffee) and even an umbrella. The hosts are very friendly and do everything to make your stay as lovely as possible - when checking in we felt like they were honestly interested in our trip and how they could contribute with local experiences. On top the breakfast is the best we had in our Costa Rica trip and you can spot amazing birds and wildlife while holding a delicious cup of coffee in your hands! I would love to give 12 points if possible ☺️
