During my brief but delightful stay at Esh Hotel, I was warmly welcomed by the entire staff an incredibly kind and attentive team. The food was absolutely outstanding, and the surrounding nature is simply breathtaking. I had the joy of hearing and even spotting some of the local wildlife, which made the experience even more special. Without a doubt, I would happily return to Esh Hotel!

I love this place so much. They are a family run business super friendly, helpful and super quick to respond to messages. I really recommend staying here and it is really good valve for money. I was only going to stay for 3 days and ended up staying for 10 days because I loved it so much and they are pet friendly

La Quebrada was gorgeous, comfortable, and the pool was fabulous. The owner was very accomodating when we needed to change the rooming situation to fit our needs. The place is impeccably clean and the individual casitas superbly comfortable with quality beds and fun private outdoor showers. The best part: the small village within an easy walking distance is what Costa Rica used to be years ago. And the birdlife - getting up early, making coffee (provided) and listening & seeing the birds was a treat.

Paradise resort with great pools and remarkable service. I'd like to address some of the occasional negative reviews regarding the dining experience at this resort: This is a moderate priced resort in a high price country. The food is excellent and we loved it, but it is not the 5-Star gourmet dining you get in a 5-times-more-expensive french ski resort.

The location is stunningly beautiful. The Dome tent was spacious and very comfortable. The food was very good and the service from all the staff was friendly, efficient and could not be faulted in any way. Young Chris deserves special mention for his exceptional service and friendliness.
