We had a lovely stay—thank you so much to Melissa and to Claudia from the restaurant next door for all your help! The apartment was clean, secure, quiet, and very close to the airport, which was super convenient. We ended up needing to stay an extra night, and Claudia kindly made sure everything was sorted for us. Check-in and check-out were smooth and self-service, which made things really easy. We left the apartment just as we found it. Thank you again for a great stay in San José!

The grounds are beautiful and so well maintained. The windows must be double glazed as it’s so quiet! excellent food, the staff are so friendly and accomodating. We stayed the night before we flew out of San Jose and it was perfect for that. Would definitely recommend!

The view from our villa and the restaurant was spectacular. We felt very safe at all times. Lots to do at the resort - the pools and hot tubs, hiking to see the waterfalls, beautiful walking paths through lush jungles and exotic flowers. We were well rested after 2 nights, and would love to return one day. Nancy at the front desk is super helpful and always greeted us with a smile. The food - for breakfast, lunch and dinner was spectacular !!!

We stayed at Apart Hotel Villas del Río and really enjoyed it. The apartments are spacious, airy, and very comfortable. The breakfast was excellent, with plenty of variety and fresh options. What really stood out was the staff — everyone was super friendly and always greeted us with a smile, which made the experience even better. Highly recommend if you’re staying in San José!
