You'll want to have your camera ready when you're visiting this cascade of water. It draws many travelers who come to Katira. Also worthy of a photo or two is Tenorio Volcano National Park. Not too far from Rio Celeste Waterfall, it's another of this area's drawcards.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (9 reviews)
Host is incredibly friendly and accessible via WhatsApp. Stayed in the private apartment and was in love with the patio which faces the mountains and sunset. Space is modern. clean, and super cozy. Also stocked with some great coffee and South American wines.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (593 reviews)
This is a beautiful high end boutique hotel. The staff was superb, very attentive at every detail. The hotel is right next to the Rio Celeste national park. The facilities mix first class areas like the restaurants and pool with rooms right in the middle of the rainy forest. I really recommend this resort.
