Great place for the cost.
Great place particularly for the price. Room size is adequate and we’ll appointed. Grounds are beautiful and the people are, well this is Costa Rica, wonderful. Easy parking out front and an easy walk to the beach. A bit of a walk to town but being out on top of the hill has its advantages in quiet too!

Very nice container room in well kept grounds. The area surrounding the property was nice with lots of wildlife to observe from the pool area. Although there were a few dining options in easy walking distance from the hotel, the area did not feel entirely safe as evening approached. Staff helpful in arranging ride from airport and to follow up destination and really enjoyed our stay. Recommended.

The roads are crazy bad but it felt like an adventure. The construction noise was the pits but we hardly paid attention to it because everything else was so lovely! Thank you!

Great ‘Glamping experience!
First let me mention Awes that Christina was awesome! Yeah, she went above and beyond to accommodate all of our needs. She made reservations at restaurants, she ordered pizza for us and anything else we needed. But just to clarify, there is not a bar or a spa or yoga on the property. There is not a restaurant or a boutique. The breakfast is excellent and it is made to order. The lady did a fabulous job. If you’re looking for a glamping experience, this is what this place is. The family of monkeys that came through yesterday was a great experience as well.

I had a few major upsets, like improper drainage in the shower and cleanliness was not fully addressed, but the hospitality won me over. Valentina at the front desk is unbelievably kind and was very helpful in easing concerns.

Me and my wife stayed here for 5 days and it was perfect. Close to the beach and we went to a few beaches but the one near the place was the best one. Staff was super friendly. We had looked at a lot of places before choosing this one and drove by them during our visit and were soooooo glad we chose Green Sanctuary after seeing the other places in this price range. We ate at amazing restaurants that were all close. La Luna on the beach and Huacas in the hills. Both were formal and need reservations but reasonably priced. Beach dog is a casual dining place with the beach vibe but also great food and atmosphere. Stay at Green Sanctuary you will not be disappointed!!!!

Beautiful property with lush landscaping, nice pool and not too far from the beach or restaurants. However, they didn’t have running water for the majority of our stay. It’s not entirely their fault as there is a water shortage in the area, but they didn’t notify us ahead of time to make other arrangements and they also failed to mention it when we checked in. It could be a great place if they get the water situation figured out.

Great folks, wonderful breakfast, super clean.
The folks at Green Sanctuary are lovely and efficient. The young woman who greeted us at 6pm was helpful and kind. Breakfast was amazing!!! I had the Tico Special and it was huge and delicious. The only downside is the construction happening a few feet away on the other side of the wall which divides the property. Constant banging metal and drilling from 7am onwards. The Green Sanctuary folks have created a sweet and reasonably priced oasis, converting shipping containers into rooms, and sadly, with the overdevelopment currently happening in this area, their oasis sounds like a construction zone during the day. I feel very sorry that this is happening as their patch is beautifully maintained and managed.

Do not trust the pics or reviews
Pictures are quite deceiving…the place is a little run down but with ok service. Main complaint is that we did not have a functioning toilet (which also leaked) and no warm water. We were not the only ones without a toilet. We were happy to be able to leave after one night and will not return.

My husband and I stayed at Green Sanctuary during our first visit to Costa Rica. We wanted something low maintenance, affordable, but clean, safe and convenient. This place exceeded our expectations. The staff members are lovely, personable and helpful. The rooms had everything we needed, were clean and comfortable and air conditioned. The breakfast was to die for - absolutely delicious. If you’re looking for a comfortable place to stay while you spend most of your days at the beach (surfing w the Coconut Harry’s guys!!!) or elsewhere, this is perfect. We didn’t rent a car and found that we didn’t need one. It was about 10-15 mins walking to the beach, and after the sun went down it was easy enough to find a Tuk Tuk to take us back. Cannot recommend enough. Wish we could live there forever!!!

Do not stay here!!!!
Do not stay at this place!!!! Sheets were dirty. AC did not work the first night. They tried to scam me and another desk after our stay with claims of broken coffee pots. Neither of us made coffee and they sent us both the same picture. It is far from everything and not a comfortable stay. Go somewhere else! They have you pay when you get there. I suspect that is so people won’t just leave.

Disliked: Staff & service
My flight got cancelled, and the airline didn't habe any more flights in the next 5 days to Costa Rica, so I had to cancel all my bookings. I was able to reach other hotels and adventure companies to talk about the cancellation, but only Green Sanctuary Hotel didn't have anyone to answer the phone call, Whatsapp chat, nor Expedia messages. I tried to reach them for 2 whole days, never once they returned my call/message. Terrible, terrible customer services.
