One of the top three nicest hotels I've ever visited. Hideaway Rio Celeste was absolutely stunning from top to bottom, I only wish we had more time to stay. I had seen the property before and thought it was gorgeous, but was nervous to book a luxury hotel with an unpredictable, potentially crying, infant. Hideaway Rio Celeste was so welcoming to us, and happily provided a travel crib. First of all, the location itself feels like a private oasis and was the perfect halfway point between La Fortuna and Liberia Airport. There's not a ton around in terms things to do and places to eat, but the hotel essentially provides fantastic options for all of that. We only stayed for one night but would definitely come back for longer in the future. The morning before our checkout, we hiked the hotel's exclusive trails to Rio Celeste, and were able to swim in the gorgeous water (which you can't do if accessing the river from the National Park.) There were two difficulty options, and the Armadillo Trail was perfect for us with our infant in his carrier. We ate both dinner and breakfast (included) in the restaurant and it was wonderful. (They're also in the process of building a new Asian restaurant that it seems will be finished soon.) The wait staff was absolutely wonderful, the dinner entertainment was fantastic. Yes, the meal was a bit pricey but was fairly consistent with what we'd found for pricing throughout our stay in Costa Rica. We also had the best time watching the many, many exotic species of birds in front of the dining room window while we ate breakfast. We stayed in an absolutely stunning Garden View Casita. It was so private and so spacious. So many nice touches eveywhere-- including a private viewing porch and an amazing outdoor shower. The beds were so comfortable, the AC and water pressure were amazing. Again, just sad we didn't have more time to spend there. We'll be back!

Beautiful views

Very helpful staff. Front desk arranged a hiking guide for us.

Breakfast was amazing & we booked last minute with no problem. The property had lovely flowers and a cute tunnel type walkway to the dining area.

Host was very attentive, central location, beautiful view, very clean, comfortable bed

This is a MUST stop on your itinerary when visiting Costa Rica. After visiting Volcano Tenorio National Park (Rio Celeste), we decided to stay in the area a couple days. The lodge's property has 3 trails - one of the trails has three hanging bridges. While hiking the longer trail, we took a little side trail called Rufus Trail and saw two tucans, lots of hummingbirds and big blue butterflies. The forest was magical and so green. The cabin we stayed in was GORGEOUS. It had a bathroom with a rain shower and the bedroom was so spacious. The porch had a hammock and other comfortable chairs. Breakfast was wonderful each morning (there were three options). All in all, I lovedddd this place.

Lovely garden , comfortable lodge, the walk to the waterfall is a must if you are staying here. Takes 1 hr and you can swim in a lovely spot after about 40 min. Beautiful primal forest on route. Really exceptional trees. We also enjoyed our dinner . Good location for Rio Celeste walk or tubing.

Breakfast was simple, yet delightful; several choices and the fruit with breakfast was fresh and contained a delicious variety.

Well maintained, small property (very peaceful) and a great attention to details from the owner and the staff. Warm welcome and very personable staff. The bird feeding, along with the amazing breakfast, was a highlight of our stay. Super close to Rio Celeste too.

Perfect place, about 1 mile from the entrance to the Rio Celeste Waterfall. Clean, air conditioning worked great, clean bathroom, very good breakfast, nice owners, free parking, in a very beautiful place on a paved road, had a small refrigerator. It's nothing fancy, but everything is great and the value of the room is tremendous.
