The Spa combos after great. The food is amazing. The room are so elegant and confortable
Costa RicaEverything was fantastic!!! Can’t wait to return. Xandari is a real gem—favorite hotel in Costa Rica!!
United States of AmericaAbsolutely beautiful property with tons of walking trails, spacious rooms with comfortable beds. We slept with our doors wide open and now that I'm back home I miss the sounds of the birds and frogs. The service was phenomenal. We asked for more coffee in our room one night and they surprised us with chocolate covered strawberries. On another morning at breakfast they packed us some of their delicious homemade banana bread to go without us even asking. Can't wait to go back!
United States of AmericaSpectacular view over the country side and the city. The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The coffee was wonderful and the breakfast was well prepared.
United States of AmericaThe view from the Star Villa was beyond belief. Spotless and comfortable
United States of AmericaYou get to walk along the trails. It´s a nice getaway. The bed was comfortable and the room had a great view and was quite spacious. The pools are nice and the property is very big so you don´t have to deal with crowded spaces.
Costa RicaThe view, the room, the service, the food!! I’m going back
United States of AmericaStunning property, wonderful staff. We stayed in 2 different villas (due to extending our stay) and they were both beautiful. The gardens are beautiful and the waterfalls are legit! We will be back! Pics are both from the villa, but I have many more of the fantastci grounds.
United States of AmericaThe breakfast that came with our room was incredible. The view of the San Jose / Alejuela valley was amazing from our patio. The villa that we stayed in was very private and it was very unique. It was also far enough away from San Jose / Alejuela where you were not in the middle of the city life but close enough to where a 10 minute drive got you to all sorts of really nice restaurants. I highly recommend Xandari for all couples traveling to San Jose.
United States of AmericaWe loved this hotel! We were only there for one night. We were sorry we couldn’t have stayed longer. This property was amazing! After a long day of driving, we were greeted by friendly staff and offered a nice refreshing drink. Our spacious room had a gorgeous view, and the room itself had a lovely patio with a table for nice breakfasts or room service. They grow the majority of the food they serve in their restaurant on the property so it is fresh and tasty! The restaurant view is stunning. The complimentary breakfast was delicious! They make all their baked goods from scratch! Yummy banana bread and granola, plus fresh fruit and some traditional Costa Rican fare. The lands are surprisingly large with hiking trails and some stunning waterfalls and a small bamboo forest. All of this for a sweet reasonable price! We highly recommend this hotel. We’ll totally go back!
