Overall, I enjoyed my stay. I truly loved the view from my villa. I appreciated the trails, eclectic atmosphere and art work. Sherri, Karla and other staff in reception were gracious and accommodating. My driver's, Luis and Flavio were the best!! Joseline at the spa was absolutely amazing!🤗 Hacienda Doka and La Paz Waterfall Garden are must see adventures and knowledge gathering experiences. The only disappointments were the consistent overhead noise of airplanes due to being so close to San Jose airport, the cost of transportation for the excursions were not adequately explained and that they, Xandari were unwilling to refund me a nights stay because I checked out earlier than my Expedia booking. The economy is tight and losing over three hundred dollars despite spending close to a thousand at the resort alone not including the cost of the trip in it's entirety was extremely unfair, non-customer friendly, and very unscrupulous. 😕 I will return to CR but never again at Xandari! And I will never book trips through Expedia. 😡 Pura vida y gracias por Todo.

Great stay!

Great hotel, excellent service. Only downside was that the WiFi was down while we were there for one night. Beautiful surroundings. Walked the waterfall trails and it was a great workout.

Location wasn’t great, very limited restaurant options in the area. The hotel is very dated and linens/curtains in the room were old and dirty. Staff wasn’t very friendly and when asked about the hot tub availability they mentioned to us that the only open one was in the spa at an additional fee but we were told initially they had other hot tubs available at no additional cost. When asked about additional umbrellas we were told they didn’t have any extra ones. Staff at the restaurant were also unfriendly and the buffet was mediocre. All the trails were closed because of the rain but they don’t seem to provide maintenance to some of them.

The walking trails around the property were good. Lot of vegetation/greenery. The view from the dining area was excellent. Staff were courteous and friendly. Beds were not that comfortable could use updated beds in the room. Transportation to and from the resort is either expensive or not available to go see some places. Breakfast (included) was great.

My stay at Xandari was beyond my expectations. I come from a very loud city where quietness does not exist . Being here made me feel at peace. The staff is super kind and helpful. Karla and Daniel always went out of their ways to provide my fiancé and I as much assistance as they can. They always went above and beyond. The restaurant and staff always provided kind and helpful service. They made our stay very relaxing and pleasant. Thank you to all of Xandari team. I will definitely stay here again.

This is a beautiful property. The grounds are spectacular. The rooms are full of colorful art. The room is spacious and comfortable. The spa is enjoyable and affordable. The restaurant is delicious. Every room has a gorgeous view. This is not an "American" hotel, so not luxurious on that scale, but it is definitely one of my favorite spots to stay whenever I'm in Costa Rica.
