Beautiful, green paradise
The service was awesome, the place has so many beautiful flowers and plants its a very happy place. The room i stayed in was a disappointment, no air circulation (no fan nor AC). The temperature outside was nice and cool, but the room does not have good circulation. No blackout curtains, so you wake up early, if you want to or not.

Beautiful Secluded Oasis in the Mountains
Incredible stay! Beautiful surrounding mountains and coupled with a resort style hotel that had beautiful Spanish architecture with a wide array of leisure and spa amenities. The staff were super friendly and the owner was warm and welcoming. We will definitely be revisiting for a longer stay next time!

THIS PLACE IS UNREAL .........
The beautify of this place and the magic of the resort is something I feel words can not do justice!!! The cabins are like something out of a fairy tale .....the area is so beautiful I keep thinking “ oh my god is this real ?” The staff is loving , warm , and give a 5 star experience ! It’s right ON the river and the spa room is basically up against it . Please go here, it’s a healing magic you have to see for yourself !!! ( you probably need 4 wheel drive if you want to explore area )

Checks all the boxes!
My wife and I travel extensively and have and have property in Costa Rica. We were told by some Costa Rican friends about Chirripo and decided to take a weekend trip. Staff and service were superior. The owner Frank pays attention to the details and it is reflected throughout. Food was superior and facility and grounds had a true Costa Rican "vibe." Summary - we will recommend for for family and our CR friends.
