Salamander Hummingbird

CorienRating, 5 stars84 months ago

What a very nice location to stay at. We are experienced Airbnb people. And sometimes you'll find a gem. We were José and Sylvia's 2nd guests. Their enthusiasm to make us happy was exceptional. The room itself is quite small..but their welcome in their own house and great garden compensates for everything. We got a delicious Costa Rican breakfast. And we even dined with them! Now that will definitely not be done by default..but what we enjoyed. In short..highly recommended to visit them!

The views, the lushness of the greenery, the serenity of the environment and the brekky is the prescription one needs to rest, reset, and relax uninterrupted. It’s easy to get lost in the tranquility of it all and not leave the property.

Morpho Bungalow Bella Paz Lovely Place!

EricRating, 5 stars3 months ago

Truly a beautiful place. Xenia was very accommodating, approving my booking request on very short notice. Bungalow was very clean. The grounds are very nice, with soothing sounds of a creek in the bottom of the ravine and birds in the morning. As a bonus, she sent me up the road to a small local establishment where I had my most flavorful meal in Costa Rica.

Any questions and extra help I needed were absolutely met with kindness and care. I didn’t speak enough Spanish to understand the bus schedules so they called them for me and we talked on the phone together as they translated. Also had an upset stomach one night and they kindly let me have some cooked rice (that’s all I wanted). Very kind people and great location.
