We stayed at Poco Cielo for 18 nights in Winter 2013. Poco Cielo provides great value, considering its amenites and price. The cabins are spacious with a small kitchen, and there is a large community rancho with a beautiful swimming pool. There is a beautiful view of the valley from the pool. We stayed in a cabin with a larger... More

We had the best experience at Poco Cielo, and that is because the place itself is just beautiful, carved in the middle of the woods, just high enough in the hills, and perfectly landscaped. The cabin we were staying in was very bright and the beds, sheets, and pillows were clean and comfortable. The rancho was another great asset. Our... More

(much cheaper flight) We had stayed in a few "American chain hotels", but wanted to find something better. We were so pleased with Poco... More

We stayed here as our first stop upon moving to Costa Rica while searching for a rental home. The managers were great. The gardener was very sweet. The setting was just peaceful, quiet and relaxing. Loved, loved, loved the pool - biggest we've seen so far here in CR. The bungalow was nice with two queen beds that were extremely... More

Great location just outside Atenas for a quiet and affordable getaway. Bruce and Mailyn were great, full of information and conversation. The rooms were spacious and clean. The rancho and pool were great.
