We stayed here on our first night in Costa Rica. Check in was easy, the hosts were very pleasant, and the breakfast was great (I'll never complain about fresh croissants and Costa Rican pineapple). The rooms were very clean and well appointed. The view was amazing... My kids loved eating breakfast on the balcony. Amazing stay, and a great start to our vacation.

Great place to stay the last night in Costa Rica 🇨🇷 close to the car rental return and airport. Safe, friendly owner (he speaks Spanish English & French), perfect lil breakfast before you travel home. I’ve stayed twice on my last night the last 2 trips and will stay there again my next trip.

Hotel Pibi Boreal was our first stop along our Costa Rican vacation and it certainly did not disappoint. Property is beautiful, rooms were very nice and clean, close to the airport, but felt like we were at an oasis away from it all. We were greeted by the owner and she could not have been more lovely. Breakfast was delivered right to our door and was delicious. Would definitely stay there again if we ever travel this way in the future!

It was a little hard at first to get here because it is a small out-of-the-way place that many taxi drivers had not heard of. However, once looking at an online map, it was easy to get to and very close to the airport - only 5 miles or so. It is a quiet spot, and the deck overlooking the trees is a wonderful place to have breakfast. The beds and linens are top quality, the bathroom is clean and new with a wonderful shower with plenty of hot water. I will consider staying here again.

Excellent service in this family-run bed and breakfast. After a long and late flight, the airport pick up was appreciated and to wake up with a beautiful view of a tropical garden and forest area was so much nicer than waking next to a highway at a typical airport hotel. We arranged for our rental car to be delivered to the property, so we were able to avoid the congested traffic of San Jose. Lovely continental breakfast with croissants and coffee.

We enjoyed waking-up surrounded my nature. It was like getting a bonus day from our vacation as this is hotel is so close to the airport but it’s not an airport hotel. The owners are super friendly and the light breakfast was just what we needed.
