The hotel may be mainly used to receive tourist groups. The environment on the mountain of the hotel is beautiful, patchwork, and the room facilities are relatively old. The 🦚 of the Peacock Garden is amazing, and almost all 🦚 are opening their screens!

Overall nice property in a great location. The room is nothing special, but it matches the pictures and is clean. It was a much bigger property than expected. They have their own hikes on property that you can explore. Every room has a view and the sunsets are great.

We had a wonderful stay at El Establo! Property is very large and well-maintained; we were able to get a taste of the jungle just by walking between buildings, and enjoyed private walking trails up in the mountains above the rooms. We enjoyed both restaurants on premises, but especially the traditional Costa Rica dishes on breakfast buffet at Las Reinas: they had some kind of amazing homemade papaya pineapple jam and great Costa Rican coffee. The most pleasant surprise was abundant wildlife on premises: we saw more birds, agouti, and coati from our balcony than in the cloud forest! Property was quiet, safe, and staff were helpful with reservations and arranging transportation.

We stayed at this property for two nights. On our first night as we were getting ready for bed we started seeing bugs appear inside the room which as we got close we realized they were wasps. It from 2-5 wasps to like more than 30 inside the room. We had our 2 year toddler. We called the front desk multiple times but there was no answer because they were closed. We also called the after hours line and there was no answer. We ended up having to grab a mattress and somehow squeeze it in the bathroom where we spent the night with our 2 year old. It wasn’t until the next morning when they helped us changed rooms that we realized there was no screen for the window and it was how the wasps got in. We complained to the front desk about our terrible experience and how this was their fault because there was no screen on the small window as there was in the new room we got transferred to. The customer service we received was horrible. They didn’t seem to care or feel bad about our experience. We asked for a refund for the one night and got no where. No one helped us and they did not offer us any services to at least try to offset the horrible experience. Very disappointing with how this issue was handled. As it seemed they just pretended they were going to do something about our refund but never did. Never did we get an answer from any manager or staff. Would not stay here again.

Excellent views, staff, breakfast.
Internet connectivity is spotty in the rooms. Good at reception.

Location was beautiful with fantastic views of sunset. Room was in good condition. Breakfast buffet was great and had many options.
Some of the issues I can think of is that room only had coffee. Having tea bags as well would have been great for tea drinkers. Wi-Fi was an issue where if we closed the door of the room, we couldn’t connect to Wi-Fi despite them having extenders. But this is a remote place and having Wi-Fi itself is probably a luxury.

The scenery in this hotel is excellent! You have to stay here to watch the sunset, night time sky and amazing scenery... all of this from the room itself.
The cons are the walls are paper thin. You can hear everything people in other rooms talk. Bath rooms are ok, beds are good.
Staff is very helpful and nice.
Not many vegan options in the restaurant.

Our Family Suite was Confort and had a wonderful view towards the Gulf of Nicoya( sunsets). My complaint is with the food neither our dinner nor breakfast was adequate. Breakfast was disappointing, cold not eell prepared Gallo Pinto, below par fruit, stale bread, etc.
