As a Swiss chalet overlooking the Pacific, La Colina B & B is made up of economic rooms with views of the garden, deluxe rooms with ocean view, but also two small apartments, practices for families. We greatly appreciate the architecture of the place, very original, but all in stairs, as well as the beautiful swimming pool (lit in the evening, it is magical!). The garden is a delight for seeing many animals such as lazy ones, but also exotic birds, butterflies or seeing many species of flowers. The hotel was very clean and comfortable. We tested the restaurant for dinner and we were disappointed by the pizzas. A beautiful hotel, one of the best value for money in the area.

Located outside Alajuela, a few minutes from the airport, a pleasant family hotel with a garden and a beautiful swimming pool. The staff were very friendly and helpful. A good option.

The chalets are equipped with a private bathroom and a terrace for your privacy, orthopedic bedding. It is an ecological establishment where drinking water comes from a natural source (gravity pressure) and to do nothing to spoil the charm and authenticity, the nights are lit up to candles, possibility to recharge its batteries to the village. In the plate, there are products from the vegetable garden, everything is organic. An incredible and romantic place to disconnect from the city's tumult. There are also a large number of birds such as aras parrots (Carara biological corridor), tubs, hummingbirds, monkeys, coatis, biches, little cats and butterflies. Marco's pedago-botanical trail leads you from your chalet to a private waterfall surrounded by sometimes multicentary trees or rivers. A place to withdraw spiritually, for a honeymoon, or simply to know Costa Rica in pure condition. Marco also awaits you in his dojo for a karate or yoga session. Massages are provided by Elena, a young graduate of IECSA (Costa Rican Institute) for a relaxing trip: Reflexology, aromatherapy… The Green Paradise, which develops its agency, also offers towers guided by horse, foot or 4 x 4.
