The property is a gem with beautiful gardens and a creek running through it. It is gated so I felt very safe. It consists of a main house that serves as a central kitchen/office with a lovely patio for breakfast; as well as several other villas for guest rooms. The location is outside of town and on a hill, so not very walkable. The room was lovely—very comfortable and clean. It included nice amenities like mini fridge, microwave, coffee maker, iron, blow dryer, and major streaming services, among others. Each room had its own private balcony overlooking the lovely gardens. Only downside was the lack of air conditioning. Staff was super friendly and everyone spoke English. The price. Included breakfast each morning which was delicious and included local cuisine. I highly recommend La Terrezza Guest House for a relaxing stay.

Anniversary visit

Charles and his staff are very professional. They responded to our requests in a positive manner. There were a couple small mechanical problems. But, nothing major. The location and facility are great. The value for the price is very good. If visiting Grecia, we would stay there again.

If you're seeking an escape that transcends the ordinary, look no further than La Terraza Guest House B&B in Grecia, Costa Rica. This isn't just a place to stay; it's an experience that will leave you rejuvenated, connected to nature, and utterly smitten with Costa Rican charm. The El Rio Apartment is a cozy haven, tastefully decorated with local flair. I fell in love with the private balcony overlooking the verdant paradise, and well-equipped kitchen for a touch of home. But the true magic lies in the little details – fresh flowers adorning the tables, local artwork gracing the walls, and the ever-present melody of nature outside your window. And, the food! Every morning, you're treated to a carefully curated breakfast. I was impressed that every breakfast consisted of a different, yet hearty, meal. The Chef, Ana, really did her thing to tantalize my palate! In my opinion, the heart and soul of La Terraza is its incredible family. They run the place with genuine warmth and care, making you feel like a cherished guest, not just a tourist. Their passion for their country and dedication to creating a memorable experience are infectious, leaving you with a newfound appreciation for Costa Rican hospitality. Special thanks to Charles, Paola, Ana, Brayan, Mauricio, and Edgardo! They truly made my experience incredible. It was very hard to leave!

Spacious, well maintained, super friendly staff, balcony with a gorgeous view, and an amazing breakfast! We would definitely stay there again! The kids didn't want to leave the hotel. Definitely explore the grounds over the bridge, if the gate is unlocked. Beautiful. The only feedback for improvement I have for the owner is that the toilet seat should be replaced (or maybe just tightened?) As it shifts around a lot when sitting on it. But even with that, 5 stars for sure.

Perfect Little Gem

La Terraza Guest House is a quaint little boutique hotel nestled in the hills just outside of the town of Grecia. The room was comfortable and spacious. I traveled alone and I felt perfectly safe here. Don’t expect piping-hot water or stellar water pressure. This is Costa Rica! Parking is also a bit tight when the property is booked. Bonus that my room had a mini fridge, microwave, and coffee maker. I loved falling asleep to the sound of the river and waking up to birds chirping and roosters crowing. The grounds are gorgeous and breakfast was delicious. Paola, the caretaker is a sweetheart and welcomed me with a freshly baked treat. If you are visiting Grecia, La Terraza is definitely the best accommodation around. Highly recommend.
