We have been going to Poas Volcano Lodge throughout the years and it remains as magical as ever. The gardens are beautiful, surrounded by prairies and cows. It's cold outside but the room remained warm and cozy. Great beds and amenities, always hot coffee and tea in the room. The food was delicious and there are small hikes you can do around the property.
Offering an indoor pool and a restaurant, Peace Lodge is located a 1-hour drive from San Jose in Vara Blanca. Free WiFi access is available in this lodge.

It's a surprising gem of a place. Lots of detail attended to at every level. The staff go above and beyond, the basic amenities are top notch and thoughtful, the relativistic stuff as well-- by which I mean, Internet on a mountain in Costa Rica with variable weather can only be so consistent, but their setup, approach, and communication make it it the maximum quality possible. The food is second to none, and the dining area is cozy, and there is a kids playground right outside with peacocks and peahens roaming the well manicured grounds. We mean to stay there again, for longer, on our next trip to that area.
Featuring massage services, Casa Volcano Panoramic View offers accommodations in Vara Blanca. This property offers access to a balcony, free private parking, and free Wifi.

Breakfast was great, nice restaurant, friendly servers. The property was a quaint, little farm with several cabins, very affordable and enjoyable. A fun place especially if you have kids or are looking to add a visit to a little farm to your itinerary. We chose it for its proximity to Poas and that worked out well for us.
Good roads but narrow as usual thru towns. Different landscape with the farms and greenhouses and coffee plantations in rolling hills. Waterfalls.
Loved the drifting clouds coming up the valleys in the evening. Cool evenings and warm days.

We went to La Paz Waterfall gardens and it was an amazing place. You could easily spend an entire day there. Also the area is known for strawberries. We bought some from a roadside stand and they were delicious.

Very pleasant highland area stay base with short distances with private car to Poas volcano and La Paz waterfall area. The staff was very pleasant and helpful, some king of personal touch brought to mind old-style country villas in Eastern or Southern Africa - very easy to feel home. Very good birding opportunities on the hotel ground, around the hotel and on the trails. We were sad to leave the place after two nights - it would have been so nice to stay longer.
Location (30 min to Poas Volcano by car)
Beautiful garden with amazing facilities such as Minigolf, Volleyball and a Colibri Garden)

Insane value for money
I feel very torn about this place. The hotel itself was amazing. The room beautiful, views were stunning and staff really friendly. If I was writing a review on the hotel only, i would be raving about it
