Once we found this spot, we didn't want to leave. Located atop one of Costa Rica's central valleys, the drive there was an adventure to say the least, and we got lost on the way, but while we were wandering we say some amazing sights, talked to some friendly locals, and ate some amazing food. About 45 min from the... More

This is one of the most beautiful places we saw in Costa Rica! It sits high on the mountain (a little difficult to find at first- "just keep going up" Maite said) overlooking the gorgeous lush valley between Carbonal mountain and San Isidro mountain. The weather is warm in the daytime and cool in the evening. Maite and Jose (... More

My husband and I stayed two nights with Maite and Jose. We would have stayed more but they were booked. We had a wonderful, homemade meal made for us when we returned from the Peace Gardens. Maite found us another stay within Grecia with a call to a friend. Such helpfulness is well remembered.

We had a very nice overnight stay on the first lag of our driving trip from San Jose to Arenal. Mango Valley is off the beaten track, but that's what you expect when you rent a car in Costa Rica. The accommodations were clean and basic, the property was simple and had a pleasant valley view. A simple breakfast was... More

It was a pleasure staying at Hotel Mango Valley. Maite and Jose were the perfect hosts. The weather at Mango Valley is closed to perfect and the views were amazing. The cabin was spotless and well equipped. The only reason why I gave 4 stars is because even though breakfast was very good I would have preferred a Costa Rican... More

Hello Rocio! Thank you very much for the days you stayed with us. Actually your comment about breakfast made ​​us think about it and did the test: we serve "gallo pinto" cooked by Nuria. Unfortunately we have discovered that only Costa Ricans like the "gallo pinto" and we decided to keep the breakfast as it was (all nationalities like it).... More

My friend and I stayed here one night after our arrival from the airport. When we realized how wonderful it was we wished we had planned more time here. The room was great with a kitchenette and fresh local coffee for us. The grounds are beautiful and the cabins are quaint, roomy, clean and comfy. The greeting that Jose gave... More

Hi Paula and Terry! Curiously, we have talked more before and after your stay than during your night with us :) Too bad it was only one night... You never know what the future holds but maybe you return to Costa Rica and, if so, come and see us! We take a "cafelito" (cup of coffee) while enjoying the gardens.... More

We stayed at this B&B for a 2 week vacation in Costa Rica. Located a few minutes outside of Grecia, this fantastic B&B provided so much more than just a great central location to see Costa Rica from. The beautiful one bedroom cabin had everything we needed to live in if we wanted to just retire there :) the view... More

Small but comfortable guest houses are located in a wonderful location high in the hills. Owners are English speaking (from Spain) and are extremely helpful and friendly. Breakfast is fabulous! The only downside is that it is way up high and a bit hard to find at first. If you have a GPS you can use the coordinates they supply... More
