Property manager and other staff were awesome! Breakfast was good, especially the fresh fruit. Rooms are basic but clean, with comfortable beds and pillows. The area around the hotel was not very walkable, so expect to drive or stay on site (they will help you order amazing pizza delivery, so surprisingly good!)

The hotel was immaculately clean and the included breakfast was delicious. Our daughter loved the pool - it was just the thing after a long day of travel. Our room had good AC and comfortable beds. The staff were very kind and helpful! Will recommend this hotel to others and stay here again if I’m ever in the area!

We have traveled the world and without a doubt, The boutique iguana verde hotel was the best stay that we have ever experienced. The staff was always bringing us fresh fruits and cold drinks and fresh beach towels. They go above and beyond to make you feel at home. It's very cozy and clean- we cannot wait to stay again! And includes a delicious breakfast

Friendly staff and clean rooms. The hot water situation in our room was not ideal. None in the sink. Finicky in the shower with a little heater attached just before the shower head. The “on site” restaurant is actually a block away and the food arrives not too warm.

My wife and I stayed at this hotel on our way out of SJO traveling west for 1 night. Important things we were looking for: secure parking, breakfast included, air conditioning, WiFi, easy access from the highway. Senor Herrera was very accommodating and kind. He showed us his available rooms and let us choose between them. The rooms were clean and the hotel grounds was well manicured. There was a pool that was available, which we didn't use but others did--it looked clean and well maintained. We ate dinner and breakfast at the hotel before continuing on our travels, which was very convenient. There are several grocery stores and a market within walking distance from the hotel. There is a futbol arena next door and a bar across the street, but they quieted down at a decent hour. The hotel is well secured and we felt like our vehicle was safe behind the locked courtyard gate. Overall, would stay here again for sure. It was the perfect place for us, meeting our needs, and well exceeded our expectations for the price.

Staff support was extremely poor. This hotel probably made it so i will not go back to Costa Rica. this stay along with the other stay booked through Expedia probably made it so i won't use Expedia again as well. The photos on Expedia were not representative of the hotel. the pool had missing tiles everywhere, had not been kept up as the photos indicated. Without question the photos were at least 5 years old. The swim up bar was not manned, nor stocked, nor had any of the coolers actually turned on. It was clear the swim up bar hadn't been functioning for a while. Had to go to the front desk to ask for a beer. this one beer i ordered was dug ( and i mean dug) out of a restaurant cooler. now on to the meal.... Yikes. we ordered diner from the restaurant, while we were sitting there it was very odd because the kitchen was right in front of us and there was no movement in there and there weren't any smells of food. a little while later our waiter comes from the opposite direct with plates in his hand. Long story short he was ordering food from the restaurant next door, up charging it and serving it to us....and not just us. We busted him doing this later as we went across the street to the Karaoke bar/restaurant. I kid you not. Absolutely unacceptable!.
husband being the bartender because there was no one in site. there was also no beverages in site.
unmanned, unset up, unstocked swim up bar.
unkept pool
