Бързо резюме: The best airport hotel in Costa Rica that you'll actually wish you arrived early for.
Преглеждано от @MikaylaLupampa4719291: I woke up to the most incredible mountain view at Hacienda Belen. The peace and quiet here is unreal—just swaying palms and misty peaks. It’s the perfect luxury escape right near the airport but feels worlds away.

Reality check
Food and drink prices are steep (US prices), and the 'resort' label means you pay a premium for everything on-site.
- You need a stress-free, high-end place to stay before or after a flight
- You appreciate historic architecture and lush gardens over modern glass towers
- You want a central base for day trips to Poás Volcano or coffee tours

- Housekeeping: Daily and thorough. Staff are praised for being attentive and detailed.
- Bathroom hygiene: Sparkling. Bathrooms are marble-clad and generally kept in excellent condition.
- Maintenance: Very good. The property is older (1996) but well-maintained to keep the 'colonial' look intentional, not worn.
- Linens & towels: High quality, fresh, and plentiful.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells of signature fragrance; rooms are fresh, no musty 'tropical' smell reported.

Съвети на инсайдъра
- ✨
Ask for a 'coffee tour' on the property—they have their own small plantation and sometimes offer mini-tours.
- ✨
The Executive Lounge is one of the best in the region; if you have status or can upgrade, it's worth it for the food savings.
- ✨
Walk to the on-site chapel and golf driving range for a quiet escape from the main pool area.
