The kitchenette was poorly lit and too small to be truly useful for more than refrigerator a few items and making coffee.

The views are amazing and the staff is warm and friendly.

No A/C was rough at first, but with open windows and rainy season it was manageable.

The views are some of the best in all of Costa Rica.

I really like Barons. It has some quirks and eccentricities but I have stayed there twice and stay there again. If you’re looking for a perfect place it might not be for you but I love going there and having my morning coffee where I can look out over the valley.

Baron's Resort is the best lodging (and dining) value I have experienced in Costa Rica. Unbelievable views. Very comfortable rooms--recommendable restaurant.

The View

Stayed in February 2025

The furniture in the room is in need of renovation. There’s a little table but no chair. They asked what we wanted for breakfast the next day ( 3 choices), but the next morning they didn’t have anymore what we had chosen. But they did offer a nice replacement.

The view is exceptional, every room has its own terrace and the bedroom has huge windows overlooking the green landscape. Some of the employees are very friendly. And the mattress is very comfortable.

The resort is very nice, but no dinner available the night I was there since there were only 2 guest rooms booked. I was not prepared with food of my own, but was able to order takeout from a nearby restaurant.

The main attraction for this hotel is the amazing location and vistas from the property. The views in all directions are fantastic. The bed was very comfortable and the room was nice. It is located a short distance from the interesting (to me) town of Atenas which proclaims to have "the best climate in the world". I concur after 2 weeks in the area. If you do not have a car. the resort is an inexpensive taxi ride from town. Definitely worth a walk around the hilly neighborhood for some beautiful views of the surrounding area.

Lovely boutique hotel. The bar only served mixed drinks and beer, no wine. The buildings could use some new paint. Nice views over valley!

The restaurant was not open for dinner on that Thursday evening.

The views are spectacular

There are a lot of things a bit old and needing repair, but for the price I got of $20/night with the last-minute booking, it's worth it. It's a great location to stay overnight outside of San Jose before hitting the road again in the early morning driving south.

Very good value for money and great location.

The ants in the room

Stayed in July 2024

The service for getting my clothes washed took two days and I had to ask multiple times to get them back. It was difficult because I had limited amount of clothes. The ants in the room were a constant inconvenience every day in the kitchen. I had to resolve this problem after cooking and it was very frustrating. No extra garbage bags were provided soap or instructions on what to do during your stay if you needed assistance. The pool did not have adequate seating with cushions for our use. I had to bring my chair from my room.

The staff were very friendly and helpful to me with changing my room to a different one with a kitchen. I was able to use their phone when mine wasn’t working. They arranged transportation to San Jose and were helpful in getting local directions.

The room appearance could have been better. It was not a slum in any way, the property was beautiful, but the room could have used a bit of updating.

This is an older property so there were some things that needed attending to. BUT, it was very clean and comfortable, and the view was spectacular! The staff, though few, were very helpful and accommodating. The price of the stay was more than reasonable.

The place is a bit old and the shower had low pressure but the view compensates.

The view and the service.

No Aircon, just an electric fan, The rooms were hot and sticky as a result. Vertical blinds on the windows facing balcony were defective due to lack of maintenance. The bugs and flying insects. Which were in the room were offputing. It was worse when the rains began. The room would have benefitted from a better deep cleaning regime.

The location was superb, beautiful views. Staff friendly and helpful. Very peaceful and pool was clean. We had a very relaxing stay.
