We spent four nights here in March 2012. The owner is very nice, helpful, and knowledgeable and cooks a good breakfast! The room was very basic, but clean; and the sunsets from the front porch were incredible. It's a little way out of Santa Elena, but the owner is more than willing to help arrange transportation (as well as other... More

Before we booked this hotel, we knew it was going to be basic and for the price of about 50 dollars a night, you can't really go wrong. As mentioned in a previous review, there is not much out there. The room was okay, not very clean (dustbunny's and cobwebs), but the bathroom was a good size and the shower... More

Our stay at this hotel was definetly nothing to rave about, it was average, the room was somewhat clean, the hot shower did work, the included breakfast was average. The view is spectacular, no one can ever take that from this location. There are NO amenities here at all, so we were disappointed that when arriving from our afternoon adventure... More

The Sunset was a hard one to pick a final rating for, as it had a variety of ups and downs. It wasn't spectacular but it had charm and I could see myself going back, so rated a 4. Positive: -Location/view is fantastic (but at the top of a big hill might be difficult to walk to town for some)... More

I am a Senior traveling alone and Sunset Hotel was perfect for me. It was quiet, away from the bustle of Santa Elena. The room is constructed with different types of wood and applied in a wainscoating design. The bathroom is large and tiled. The owner and his son were very accomodating for tour suggestions. The reception/dining area is charming... More

Stayed 2 night in the Sunset hotel. Got a small discount so paid 45 dollars pr night including breakfast. The rooms are simple and so is the breakfast, but ok value for the price. We didn't find the rooms so clean, but the owner is really nice, firiendly and helpful and all in all we liked the stay. The hotel... More

Friendly hosts and terraces with a great sunset view. Ideally located to watch the rolling mist overhead. Better to have a car to access but not necessary.

The place lives up to its name, and one can easily sit out on the deck every night watching some amazing sunsets . Not to be outdone, the hosts are genuine, friendly, and happy to answer the same old questions that get asked over and over again with genuine concern for making your visit to the area pleasurable. And yes,... More

This is a great little place and a terrific value. Vitalis, the owner, is very friendly. It really is like staying with family. The trails on property (25 acres) are very good. Lots of birds, some wildlife, a stream, etc. A good, thick, tall rain forest. We had a bit of a problem with small ants in the room, but... More
