What an incredible getaway at Las Cumbres! It was the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. The place is absolutely stunning, and the cabin exceeded all our expectations!

This was a great place to stay! Lots of wildlife, and felt pretty secluded. Me and my wife really enjoyed staying there and using the jacuzzi.

La Auxiliadora - Classic Mountain Chalet Escape
Syl treated us very kindly from the beginning, she welcomed us warmly in person and gave us recommendations and instructions on how to find everything, we loved the nice gesture with which she welcomed us with a table prepared for us🥹, the place was immaculately clean, it smelled of delicious wood and it was quiet and private, we loved that they provided us with a lot of firewood to keep the fireplace lit at night, Syl is very kind and always attentive and understanding with us, we totally recommend that you stay here with her, I felt a lot of peace and happiness, I love places that feel like home, and the bed! The sheets! The texture, the mattress of the bed, what a rich experience to sleep there. 🩷 Many thanks to Sylvia because we love everything and we will love to return in the future!

Mountain Log Cabin - Birrí Heredia
11 of us stayed and the experience was amazing, we loved it! The cabin is much nicer in person than in the photos, and the property in general is spacious and well maintained. The barbecue ranch is private, perfect for group sharing. The weather is around 18 degrees, ideal for enjoying the mountain atmosphere, and the fireplace was a great plus —Alberto, the caretaker of the place, was super friendly and helped us turn it on, plus he was always available for whatever we needed. Something to note is that one of the rooms connects directly to another, which reduces privacy, and this is not very noticeable in the photos. There are also dogs that come to the property, they are very nice and friendly, although one of them was quite hungry, he was very affectionate. We were told that we should bring charcoal and it wasn't necessary, because Alberto told us that they had it. Overall, everything was great. We loved the place and would definitely come back without thinking.
