    The hotel was really lovely. Very chic style throughout and in the rooms. The bed was big and the room spacious. The staff were friendly and food was good. Breakfast was delicious and the free transfer to and from the airport was excellent particularly as Ubers could be unreliable. The view of San José at night is stunning and a real attraction of this property (some of the balcony rooms / villas have a view over this).

    Villa San Ignacio sits on a closed property on the road from Alajuela to Poás volcano area. Rooms are scattered around the property in small blocks. The place is quiet, with large mango and bamboo trees. Nice pool and breakfast area. Very friendly staff. Ideal for a short stay if you're in the Poás Valley or if you want to stay near enough to San Jose but away from the city confusion.
