The hotel is gorgeous with a spectacular view of the mountains. The property has lots of scenic trails with lookout points. The staff is kind and everything is very clean. The hotel and restaurant are very eco-friendly, and fresh fruits, vegetables, and herbs can be seen growing on the property using sustainable resources. Our family really enjoyed the night tour with our guide Eduardo, who was funny, making it all the more fun. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay. The food was fresh and delicious, especially their red fruit pie!
The property is on top of mountain with stunning mountain and sunset view. Room is very clean. Onsite restaurant and hiking trails. Front desk is very helpful and friendly. Playground right in front of the property for kids to enjoy!
The grounds at Valle Escondido are beautiful. The food and service were excellent. Loved the farm to table concept and the eco-friendliness of hotel. Rooms are simple but clean and had everything we needed. Views and sunset from the restaurant/bar area were outstanding.
Excellent breakfast, stunning views, nice service. Loved this hotel and would recommend it to unplug (no TVs) and enjoy all the beauty Costa Rica has to offer!
This property is magnificent. The staff is very friendly, especially Elian. We walk the trails on the facility and saw the waterfall and the other amazing views. My children enjoyed it as did we we totally recommend this hidden gem.
Enjoyed the quiet and location of this property. Next to the Butterfly garden.

Amazing property tucked away. Excellent breakfast in area with beautiful view. Butterfly garden 5 min walk. Staff is friendly. Do eat at farm to table restaurant. Hike around property is very peaceful with serene scenery. Will stay again.
Might need a car to get into town, but a great hotel. Food on site was amazing and affordable. Best pizza in Costa Rica.
The hiking trails were a nice afternoon and morning adventure. Would recommend this place to anyone.
Great view of the sunset (unfortunately some clouds blocked the full view during our stay).
Valle Escondido is a beautiful eco friendly hotel with delicious farm to table food. Property is beautiful with hiking trails to views of waterfalls. Great place for families and nature lovers alike. We took a night tour and saw amazing things with our lost knowledgeable guide! Had a great time!
The service was excellent helping us find our way to parks and transit. The food was tasty and healthy. The grounds are gorgeous and their respect for the land is impressive. We loved this place!
I enjoyed walking the trail at this property. The view was amazing. We enjoyed the happy hour and dinner . Breakfast was great too. I also like the fact that the butterfly garden is next to the hotel.
Wonderful stay here. They have beautiful sustainable farm values that were a wonderful bonus to the stay. We stayed two nights here. The sunset views and rainbow sitings were magical. Staff is so kind and accommodating. Everyone was very pleasant to interact with. Drive to selvatura was about 25 min away.
The staff wasn't friendly at all. There is a smell coming from the sewage in the rooms. Overall property is good located but roads coming to property is in bad condition.
