Historias Lodge

What can I say but WOW! This was such a pleasant suprise! As soon as we got there we had instant regret that we didn't book longer here! This hotel almost makes us want to go back one day just to stay here again. The pictures do not do it justice. This is a wonderful spot, so charming, wonderful plants. Can't say enough good things! The host even helped us reserve dinner. What a great place.

Gorgeous property with well-tended gardens, hanging plants and pots of flowers everywhere. Our room was spotlessly clean with beautiful wood and tile surfaces. Easy walking distance to a variety of restaurants. Great people who definitely took pride in their hotel. 100% would stay here again.

Great time. Friendly staff.

Excellent and helpful staff

The drive up was breathtaking, beautiful views! Our room was great, better than the pictures. Miguel was super nice, inviting and helpful.

Great chalet with all amenities. Outstanding staff.

Our room was clean, very spacious and Miguel and his nephew were great. The staff did an amazing job to ensure we had a fantastic stay. Would definitely stay at Historias Lodge again..

受付の方のホスピタリティが素晴らしかったです。 お部屋への動線もいい意味で迷路のようで面白かったです。部屋も清潔感があり満足。ホテル周辺にはスーパーや複数軒のレストランがあり、徒歩で色々賄えるのは便利でした。 枕元にコンセントが無いのと、シャワーにシャンプー、ボディソープが二つともあるとベター。秋口は朝方冷えるのでもう少し厚手の毛布があると有難いかもしれません。

Amazing stay, it is a family run place, we met the owners brother and son - they were extremely cordial and welcoming, invited us to a drink and told us some of the areas history, and ensured everything was perfect for our stay. Made to order breakfast was the best from our entire Costa Rica trip. Honestly the pictures do not do the place justice - the inside of the room was very spacious and elegant and sparkly clean; and the grounds were lush and green. There were so many little well thought out things - e.g. motion sensor lights and ramps where we didn't need to carry our suitcases upstairs!

Nice place to stay. The loft room did not have hot water.

Really nice treat by owners.

It was a good stay. They provided transportation to cloud forest and Manuel Antonio. Clean property with basics. Lots of eating places and coffee stores walkable.

The staff was very welcoming and friendly!

It was a one night stay.

Comfortable large room. The only downside was the shower water was not hot. Family that owns the hotel was very nice and helpful. Town was less than 15 minutes walking but very steep climb back to the lodge.

Miguel made Historias Lodge a wonderful place to stay. I was travelling on my own. I wanted a private room but not pay too much as I would be spending a lot of time site seeing. So, I chose Historias Lodge. My room didn’t have a balcony or area to sit outside. I envied the others but this is to necessary. The basic and very clean room served the purpose quite well. Miguel greeted me with a friendly smile and Hola. He was so lovely and made sure I had everything I needed. He arranged tours for me, but didn’t pressure me to do anything I didn’t want to. He was such a spark of sunshine. He even arranged for his nephew to drive me to the bank. The Lodge was close to the local bus stop to get to the Cloud Forest and there was a bakery and restaurants around the corner. I would recommend it for a solo traveller like me.

Staff very friendly and the room and area on the property are very beautiful.

The place was very clean and bug free which is the best. Check in and out was super smooth and the staff was amazing and super helpful and understanding.

Nice hotel very close to the centre of Santa Elena. The room was spacious, clean and there is a very green garden. Friendly owner.

The staff was nice and the location was good but the wall is thin so we could hear every thing from the next room. No fan or AC so it was quite hot during the day.
