We rented an SUV (almost a must if driving extensively in Costa Rica and especially grateful for it over the last 10... More

We couldn't bear to leave, so we changed our plans and stayed a second night! The room: Beautiful. The best we've ever stayed in, and I'm pretty particular. Every room is very private because of all the beautiful greenery planted around the property. The staff: Five-star service. Everyone was genuinely kind and accommodating. By our first morning we were already... More

Rio Celeste is in the middle of Nowhere - a fact no doubt troubling to those in the neighborhood that have lived in the area all their lives - and those who may have moved in to get away from Somewhere.
