The maneger made us feel at home from we came till we left. We stayed for 4 nights ( 1 extra) He was very helpfull and friendly. The rooms were sporless, clean towels every day, extra towel for swimming-pool and most important, they emptied the bin every day. If you are looking for a hotel where you are not just another guest, but truly seen and appreciated – then Alborada Boutique Stay is the place to be. Thank you so much for a memorable stay.

This place is absolutely amazing! The view is breathtaking, and the peacefulness made our stay incredibly relaxing. We had the best time here. Leonardo, the host, is super friendly and went out of his way to help us find a tour to Corcovado for the next day, which we really appreciated. The breakfast was very good, with a nice variety of options, though it was more continental in style. I would have loved a bit more of a local touch to really capture the Costa Rican flavor. Nonetheless, the quality was great and we really enjoyed it! The atmosphere is wonderful, and I truly love this place. If you're looking for a serene escape with fantastic views and great hospitality, this is the perfect spot!
