    Beautiful house with spacious garden, cozy terrace and very friendly dog and cat. Make sure you don’t miss homemade breakfast served by the most kind owner of the house.

    Great place with local flavour

    It is a room in a house, in a short walking distance to everything you may need, with windows open to a nice garden - you will be woken up by birds in the morning. The owner is wonderfully helpful and friendly, you will enjoy his company and advice (and the company of his cat and dog). The place is clean and very convenient. You will share the bathroom. Staying at this place is a kind of good experience by itself, you will be immersed in local life and bring home good memories. Strongly recommended.

    I cannot fault a single thing - it was what I expected, great value for the money I paid and what I had expected. I think the ad could be clearer to explain to others that they will be staying in a room, etc. Also, the location on the map or the pin drop is not accurate. That could easily be changed and I would add a picture with some instructions on how people can find it - it can help others.

    The vibe is great, the dog and the cat are simply adorable and the host is an incredible human being. Great conversations and simple, down to earth communication. Recommended!

    We had an amazing time in Embassy House! :) Property owner Rafael was very friendly and helpful. Our room was nicely clean and airy with a beautiful views to the garden. We will miss delicious eggs for a breakfast served with a cuban music and we will also definitely miss Fidel 🐕

    Nothing - we wish we had stayed longer!

    We loved our relaxing stay at Embassy House. Rafael made us feel at home and gave good recommendations for things to do in the area. The house itself is very comfortable with a beautiful garden to have breakfast in and a dipping pool to cool down in when the day is especially hot. It's a very easy walk to restaurants, shops, kayak tour, bus station and ferry but not right in the busy area. We also fell in love with the resident cat and dog!

    This is a very friendly bed & breakfast, 1 bedroom inside a private house (shared bathroom) very centrally located with everything within walking distance. Very friendly host who has traveled the world, always open for a chat. He freshly cooked us delicious scrambled eggs for breakfast. We could also store our larger bags while doing a 3 day hike in Corcovado.

    Only stayed one night at Embassay house but would highly recommend. Lovely home with a beautiful garden. Raphael was a very welcoming and accommodating host. He made us a wonderful breakfast in the morning. Two pets in the home, one dog and one cat. Good location, few mins walk to main street for shops/ restaurants and only 10min walk from small airstrip.

    I'm not sure if there's AC, if you need / want it.

    Rafael helped us a lot with our stay in Jimenez. We were there mostly for a three day tour of corcovado national park. He prepared breakfast for our early departure to the park. We were also allowed to leave our rental car on his property for a small fee. Note that Rafael has two lovely pets (cat and dog).

    We chose this place because the listing said there was air conditioning, but there was not, only fans. But it was fine in the end! Lots of screened windows for breeze.

    Very sweet and kind host, and his dog :) He made us a delicious breakfast in the morning and made us feel so well taken care of and looked after. Sharing a bathroom was not even noticeable at all.

    My wife and I didn't like it it was just a room in a stranger's house with no privacy one bathroom that was shared by the owner and the owner had access to everything and was in the house so we didn't have any privacy.
