Szybki przegląd: A stunning visual escape that feels isolated until the acoustic reality of the city traffic below drifts up the mountain.
Przejrzane przez @saminabatyrova: I booked this glamping dome for my 22nd birthday and it was a total dream. The views of San José are insane, especially from the jacuzzi at sunset. It felt so private and luxurious—perfect for a solo reset. Definitely get the marshmallow kit for the fire pit!

FAQ i ukryte porady
Wszystko, co naprawdę chcesz wiedzieć, zanim zarezerwujesz.
Is there AC?
Yes, the domes have air conditioning, which is rare for glamping but necessary for the humidity.
Is the road scary?
It's paved but steep and narrow. Uber drivers manage it, but nervous drivers might sweat.
Are there bugs?
It's Costa Rica, so yes. However, the domes are well-sealed. Keep the screen door closed or you will have moth roommates.
Is breakfast included?
Yes, a full local breakfast (gallo pinto, eggs, fruit) is brought to your terrace.
Can I bring my dog?
Policy is conflicting (some sources say no, others say 'conditional'). You must email them directly to get approval.

No swimming pool, but every dome has its own private outdoor hot tub.
Porady dla wtajemniczonych
- ✨
Order the dinner package in advance—the pizza and wine by the firepit is better than dragging yourself out to a restaurant.
- ✨
The sunrise view is actually better than the sunset; wake up at 5:30 AM for the cloud forest mist clearing over the city.
- ✨
Download WhatsApp—it's the primary way the staff communicates with you once you're in the dome.
5 rzeczy, które warto wiedzieć przed wyjazdem
💡The shower pressure is 'rain style' which means 'gentle drizzle'—don't expect a power wash.
💡You can hear your neighbors if they are loud on their deck; sound carries perfectly across the valley.
💡The 'kitchenette' is really just a coffee maker and a mini-fridge, not a place to cook meals.
💡The gate code system can be finicky; save the emergency number before you arrive.
💡It gets bright early. The curtains are good, but light leaks around the dome edges.
