Barrio Flaminia Hotels, Las Horquetas

"Top marks to the staff (special thanks to Xavi, Claudia, and Esteban) who made this the best hotel during our trip as their service was with a genuine smile and helpfulness. The rooms are very simple (youth hostel standard) but it is well-kept. The surroundings (lots of birds) are magical and fresh (lovingly-prepared) breakfast and dinner was very good. It is remote (that makes it special) so you do need a car or rely on transport. Highly recommend doing the Green Rivers rafting tour and the Night Tour with Sarapiqui Xperience (all booked via the hotel). "

"Loved the stay here , beautiful property , great hangout space, very rustic and inviting"

"Excellent stay - saw the tapir and an anteater!"

"Two nights ago I checked into this hotel after finishing a long white water rafting tour while on my way to San José. The property itself is pretty. It might be fine for people who want to stay on a resort property and not go out to explore the real Costa Rica. For a one night stop, however, this was easily the worst choice of my entire trip. From the moment I pulled into the loading area the process became ridiculous. I checked in, walked all the way to a room at the very back of the property, then had to walk all the way back to reception to ask for something closer. After that I returned to the first room, gathered my things, walked to the new room, then walked back again to return the first key. Then I had to go back to my car, drive to their parking lot, and walk all the way back through the pathways again. It took one hour and twenty minutes just to get into the room. Signage exists, but in several places where you actually need it, it’s missing. I constantly had to ask people for directions. The room had no television and no refrigerator. Every time someone walked past, the entire room shook because four rooms sit on one large platform. I also watched elderly guests and people using canes struggling up the stairs and along the long pathways. I hated my stay here. Anyone with mobility issues should absolutely avoid it."

"Very friendly staff! Thanks Sergio for your kindness. The rooms could need a little refreshment to enjoy more the stay, but the place is very cool! And food delicious "

"Beautiful property right on the river. There are so many beautiful birds and gardens. A sloth hug out in the tree right outside the door. It was never more than 6 meters above the ground. Great closeup interaction. Just after midday a group of 30 plus monkeys slowly passed thru the trees on the riverbank. The host prepared dinner and breakfast and it was delicious. Rooms are very very clean with cold AC. Outdoor kitchen has ample space and a great place to converse with other guests. I took a refreshing swim in the river. Quiet and peaceful. The owners make you feel at home. "

"Nice place to stay. "

"Cabins are clean and Well stocked. The cafeteria had good food. The place is well organized. But th highlight was the nature walk. There were so many birds there that I haven’t seen before. "

"The house and the gardens are amazing! The large patios enabled us to enjoy being outside in spite of some rainy weather. We saw lots of beautiful birds.The neighbors were so friendly. We didn't have a car but one of them drove a taxi so it was easy to get to town, and another, Yadi, delivered delicious home cooked meals. It was a delightful experience!"
