Love, love , love Vista Celestial! I’ve brought yoga groups about 9 times over the years and the staff, accommodations, food, excursions are the best. Truly is a luxury boutique hotel nestled in the jungle overlooking the ocean. Easily could stay another week!

Beautiful boutique hotel. Gorgeous views, Whale Tail. Service and accommodations top notch. Trails to waterfalls near by. Excursions available to experience CR rain forests and culture. Tico Coffee Plantation, OSA zip lining, horseback to waterfall were my favorites.

This Hotel is top notch! The attention to detail from the simple but elegant art work, furniture and bedding. The grounds are unbelievably beautiful and impeccable! The spa has some of the best masseuses I have experienced. Best of all the staff is excellent all the way around! Anthony, Jose and Carlos are the best. The food was delicious! The excursions that were set up for us were so fun! The coffee plantation/ hike was a wonderful experience! The beach bonfire was perfect ! They worked so hard making it just right and it was! All of the drivers are kind and courteous. The people behind the scenes that kept the room just perfect and took care of all the details, laundry etc. were so on top of everything! The set up for our yoga practice every time was so creative and artful! This was one of the best places we have ever stayed at. Thank you all for doing such a wonderful job and making us feel at home and taken care of! Doug and DeLisa

Staying at Vista Celestial was a stand out experience. The staff were exceptionally personable and accomodating. They made us feel special. The private villa was extremely clean and comfortable with high quality linens. The food and drinks were delicious. We loved our couples massage on the deck of our villa overlooking the Ballena National Park's whale's tail. This is a wonderful hotel for couples.

The atmosphere is casual, friendly and warm. Jose, Carlos, Anthony, Pam are terrific. The owners, Jennie and Greg are around the premises and always giving of themselves.
