I had a late flight and chose this hotel because of the late check-in, and it's location on my drive north west of SJO...I didn't really look into the property much, but when I arrived, I was very impressed with the size of the accommodation, the grounds, and the staff. I really wish I would have read more about this place prior to planning my trip so I could have planned to stay another night.
The property is very well maintained and is beautiful in appearance due to its location on the hill overlooking the town. Although there is only one restaurant the food was amazingly delicious each meal we had. The staff were very friendly and professional and made us feel welcome each day. They made sure ask if there was anything we needed on a regular basis. Xandari Resort and Spa is a gem and no one will be disappointed visiting.
It was a gorgeous resort but our room had no way to get warm and our room was absolutely freezing!We could practically see our breath it was so so cold! For the price we paid for our room at this beautiful resort it would’ve been so great to be comfortable but instead we were shivering all night long.
Beautiful resort
This property is beautiful!!! About 40 minutes away from downtown San Jose and doesn’t even feel like it!! The hike to the waterfalls on site was so awesome!! Loved the sunset pool! Staff was amazing from the minute we drove into the property!!
Great place to connect with nature in the city, lots of waterfall, hiking trail within the property
We stayed in the Star Villa which basically is a palatial villa overlooking the magnificent valley and mountains. WHAT A VIEW. The property is gorgeous beyond expectations. The private waterfall hike in the resort was great exercise (67 flights climbed) but lovely. A must stay resort for 1-2 nights of relaxation and spa if you're in the San Jose area.
Rooms and views are gorgeous. Grounds are great too. They’re very stingy with towels...told no if you ask for an extra one...didn’t leave any in the room after cleaning it. Once you get the towel it’s really fluffy and cozy. Biggest problem is in food service. We were the only people in the restaurant at lunch and it took almost an hour to get...servers would disappear. Regardless of issues, I would likely come back!
Beautiful hotel with gorgeous rooms and spectacular view. Restaurant staff could have been more knowledgeable about the dishes offered...specifically portion sizes. My dish could have fed two people ...heard same comment from other guests
Great resort. Fabulous food, beautiful grounds and friendly helpful staff.
An amazing resort,peaceful, calm and tranquil. Excellent food. Courteous and friendly staff. Love the location and the closeness to airport.
Great place in Costa Rica. The grounds were awesome, walking their assorted trails to the waterfalls amongst great landscaping and sculptures felt magical. Friendly staff, great pool, convenience of location for our last night in Costa Rica.
This is one of the most unique hotel/resort complexes I have ever stayed in. The brilliant and inspired architectural finishes of the rooms and all buildings are brought out to their fullest by the special interior design elements. This is then further enhanced by the outstanding gardens and views. However, the most striking feature is the sheer passion and exuberance of the staff. This hotel captures the beauty, elegance and uniqueness that is Costa Rica. May it continue to thrive.
I enjoyed a recent stay at this lovely hotel. The morning breakfast was divine, the spa services are excellent, and the staff are friendly, courteous and professional. It was especially nice to not have television services in the room, enabling visitors to really relax in nature.
Sad to say I had some challenges with my room, meals and spa treatments. However, once brought to the attention of the staff, they went over and above to make things right even if it meant pricing consideration. Everyone from the manager, front desk staff, restaurant staff and spa staff were fabulous. I would definitely stay here again and recommend everyone with an interest in exceptional service do the same.
What a relaxing stay in a beautiful setting! We enjoyed every moment at this hotel, from our reception by Julianna to our last morning walking, swimming, breakfasting (love that breakfast-the fruits, the muffins, the starfruit juice!) The grounds here are phenomenal; very well kept. It felt like we were in a lovely garden as well as really trekking through the jungle on our hike to see the gorgeous waterfalls. We loved the fresh foods they grow on site. We loved the kindness and helpfulness of the staff-thank you Jimmy, Karen, Julianna, Lucy and Luis! As well as all the restaurant staff! We appreciate the kindness, the attention to the customer, and the beauty of this resort. A real retreat away from the insanity and bustle of the city! The only thing more we could have asked was to stay longer!
Everything was excellent, our only complaint is that we were a little cold in our room. But when we used the blankets we were ok. Beautiful garden to explore.

Thank you very much for your visit and for your comment. Our villas do not have a heater, but we do offer extra blankets if clients request them. Normally at this time of year it is not cold, however unfortunately everything is changing due to global warming.
