Located around 800 metres from Edgardo Baltodano Stadium, the hostel is also 41 km away from Marina Papagayo. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen and luggage storage space for guests. The owners were so nice. The taxi they organised for us didn't turn up, so they drove 20km to pick us up in their own car and wouldn't accept any payment. The family apartment was very comfortable and clean. It had essentials such as coffee tea, sugar, salt and oil. Close to supermarkets and walking distance to bus station and restaurants. The firstt load of laundry was free, which was a great bonus. The outside road was a little noisy with music at night, but it was the weekend.
Hacienda Santa María
Set in Hacienda Santa María, 23.7 km from Miravalles Volcano, Santa Maria Volcano Lodge Hotel & Restaurante offers accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a restaurant and a bar. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a barbecue. The hostel also features free WiFi as well as a paid airport shuttle service. We loved the place and were very happy with our choice. Yocky and her Mom are amazing hosts and take care of their guests very well whether it is sharing trip advices or preparing delicious meals or just to spend time together like friends or family members do. The Family and also all their employees are very kind and wonderful people. So are all the horses and I can also recommend horse riding at their place. Also the whole property meaning the land is just amazing. It offers diffrent kind of wooden houses (smaller, bigger, older and very new ones) for the guests and we loved the one that we chose. We have never seen so many diffrent birds just in front of our house and we had aready been to Costa Rica several times. It was a very magical time to us, and we would like say one more time: Thank you, Yocky, for your hospitality and for the possibility of being able to visit your beautiful and so natural land with all these trees (we love guanacaste big trees), birds and other animals. We already miss this place and can only add that there are not so much of such places for a real travellers/explorers to see and experience when it comes to real Costa Rica and its beautiful nature. We want to definitelly come back!

Located in Sámara, Casa Terra Hostel features a garden, shared lounge, terrace, and free WiFi throughout the property. Featuring a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with a barbecue. The accommodation provides airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available. I've stayed at Casa Terra for almost 4 weeks because I went to Intercultura Language School nearby to learn Spanish. I felt very comfortable and at home at Casa Terra. It was always very clean. Also, I enjoyed being surrounded by nature and since it was not on the main road, it was really quiet at night. The walk to the beach is about 8 minutes, the walk downtown around 15 minutes. The volunteers Constance and Carolina as well as the owners were always happy to help with questions and organizing tours and often hung out with us at the hostel. I can fully recommend staying there.

The hostel feels very much like a second home, the people living and volunteering here were extremely friendly and always ready to help! The beach is a 5-10min walk from the hostel and the environment is safe. The owner explained us about the plans for the future, which I’m sure has great potential! Absolutely recommend the place!

Free WiFi is available and private parking can be arranged at an extra charge. I arrived to the place a little late but I let them know in advance via WhatsApp number they provided, so I didn’t have any problem with the check in. They were really polite. I had a very quiet and comfortable night at the dorm. In the morning they offer free coffee which was also nice. Also the common area was decorated with the guests’ drawings, it was very lovely. You can leave your drawing as a memory before you leave.
