Small and family run hotel, good location and very helpful with all tours. if just staying for a few days to take in the local tours then this does the job very well. Good breakfast and ideally located to access the hundreds of local tours offered. We found a really nice $5 day tour recommended by the owner and was... More

To be honest we didn't do our homework for Monteverde and the Santa Elena area, the drive up sucked and our experience was so-so. This B&B was my favourite part! Just really friendly, honest, clean and tasty breakfast. Anthony is always around for any of your needs, always with a smile. I was pretty sick and this place let me... More

I struggled between giving this Inn an average or very good ranking. It's in a great location in Santa Elena, which I liked. The owner/operator Anthony was friendly and helpful, especially with organizing tours, and the rooms were clean and comfortable, with an extra large washroom and great shower. I would recommend others to stay in this Inn, except we... More

This is a reasonably priced B&B (approx. $60. 2 dbl beds, breakfast). There is internet available in a room adjacent to the desk, some rooms have satellite t.v., with English programming (you have to ask to have this when booking.). The rooms remind me of a Motel 6 - clean, nothing fancy - no shampoo, for example. The rooms are... More

The "Mar Inn" was a the perfect hotel for me in Santa Elena/Monteverde. The location is great, only a short walk to the town center with all the restaurants, shops and agencies. The rooms have everything you need, are very clean and spacious. The whole staff is very friendly and nice. Most of all the manager "Anthony" is just great.... More

This place, for what you're paying, is great. Others also mentioned this but being away from downtown was quiet and very relaxing. The rooms, although not elaborate, are enough for you to drop your bags and spend the day doing adventurous activities in the sun. The beds were clean and firm but very comfortable to sleep. The place, in the... More

We stayed 3 nights at Mar Inn. Great location only about 300 meters from Santa Elena but far enough away from the hustle and bustle of town. Anthony, in charge of reservations, and seemingly always working at reception 24/7, is a great guy, very friendly, knowledgable, and helpful. We experienced outstanding service from him and his familyduring our stay. Pura... More

This is a charming B&B, well situated in Santa Elena. Excellent staff, Anthony is charming & extremely helpful assisting us with planning & booking activities. The breakfasts were delightful and gave us the opportunity to share travel tips & plans with like-minded guests.
