This place is perfect! Best hostel in Central America! Everything is incredibly clean, rooms have good a/c and beds. There are 4 bathrooms which are absolutely spotless (and they have shampoo & shower gel in showers). The best equipped kitchen I ever saw in a hostel (so many pans/pots, free coffee/tea, oil/salt/oats etc.) - again, spotless Really nice areas to chill in, enough space so you can always find some peace. There is even a shelf full of mosquito repellents to use! Owners/staff are also all incredibly kind. Oh they also have a garage for your car, and the price for the whole stay feels cheap compared to other hostels in Liberia, which are nowhere nesr as good. Cannot recommend enough!!

We loved the place and were very happy with our choice. Yocky and her Mom are amazing hosts and take care of their guests very well whether it is sharing trip advices or preparing delicious meals or just to spend time together like friends or family members do. The Family and also all their employees are very kind and wonderful people. So are all the horses and I can also recommend horse riding at their place. Also the whole property meaning the land is just amazing. It offers diffrent kind of wooden houses (smaller, bigger, older and very new ones) for the guests and we loved the one that we chose. We have never seen so many diffrent birds just in front of our house and we had aready been to Costa Rica several times. It was a very magical time to us, and we would like say one more time: Thank you, Yocky, for your hospitality and for the possibility of being able to visit your beautiful and so natural land with all these trees (we love guanacaste big trees), birds and other animals. We already miss this place and can only add that there are not so much of such places for a real travellers/explorers to see and experience when it comes to real Costa Rica and its beautiful nature. We want to definitelly come back!

This place is quiet. It has a pool and good privacy for couples. As there aren’t any hostels in town, this 30$ per person is the cheapest.
