Ligt in een afgelegen wijkje maar perfect om na of voor je vlucht even te bekomen!

Pros:

Schöner großer Garten mit Pool
Wir waren die ersten 2 Nächte in der Hacienda Escondida. Der Garten ist wunderbar, um nach dem Flug zu relaxen und die ersten Tiere zu beobachten. Frühstück draußen sehr angenehm und lecker. Sehr freundlicher Service.

Prefecto lugar para la primera o utlima noce antes del avión!
Pros:

EL jardín es precioso y todo es como un oasis en medio del caos de alajuela. Aunque el veicndario es tranquilo y esta en una calle sin salida.

Cons:

EL desyuno era muy sencillo por le precio de la habitación. Pero el servicio excelente y encantador!
