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.

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.

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

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!
