We did a "take-over" the week of January 14th. My wife and I, along with 4 other couples who are good friends from college went on the trip of a lifetime. We had no experience with Costa Rica, so everything was new, even though we've done the "canned" resorts in Jamaica and Mexico. You just can't compare Los Altos to any other type of vacation.

I won't go on and on about what every day consisted of, but I'll spend the space here to compliment Calvin and the staff. From the wonderful meals, beautiful facility, top-notch service (the staff went beyond the definition of "world class" service), to the sunset massage, Jaqueline's 3.5 mile hike to get the day started, and the many activities in the area. I highly recommend that you do the day trip for the mud bath, horse ride, and the zip line. You'll probably never have a zip line experience anywhere else in the world.

We felt at home at Los Altos De Eros. Calvin and the staff made sure that things were the way you wanted it. In fact, we were lucky enough to be there when they were named best luxury and best service. The interesting thing was they try very hard to make this your dream vacation, and they certainly succeed! If you have a group of friends, and are looking for that next trip, this is the place to go. We truly had a blast, and will hopefully someday return.

The only disappointment in the whole trip was returning home, where we were greeted -20F temps.....110 degrees difference is hard to get used to!

Thanks Los Altos de Eros!

Los Altos de Eros is absolutely amazing. To be honest, my wife and I had very high expectations after reading all of these reviews, but this place still exceeded all of them. From the moment we arrived and were met at the airport with cold beers, we knew that this was a special place.

We stayed here for 10 days and loved every minute of it. We had adventures, we had relaxing days, and we had a few parties, among many other things. A common theme among these reviews (with the exception of a few) is that everyone seems to enjoy the company of the other guests; this was no different for us. We met a number of couples that we have stayed in touch with and will continue to stay in touch with.

Calvin and Jacqueline are great hosts and they have put together an amazing staff that will take care of everything you need, including doing your laundry every day which is a nice perk. The food is absolutely amazing; we went to Tamarindo a couple of times to eat, but we were disappointed both times in comparison to what we ate at the hotel. Tamarindo in general is a disappointment, but there really is no reason to go there.

I have traveled all over the world and Los Altos de Eros is hands down the most well run hotel that I have ever stayed at. Their #1 ranking in the world that they just received is extremely well deserved.

My husband and I visited Los Altos for our honeymoon and couldn't have asked for a better vacation. Now it feels like it was all just an incredible dream. The service was amazing and exceeded our expectations. The food was delicious and the staff was very accommodating with any food allergies or special needs. I could say more, but the other wonderful reviews express exactly how we felt about Los Altos. We definitely plan to return and just hope it will be sooner than later.

Wow—that’s really all I can say about Los Altos de Eros. When we found this gem on tripadvisor, we knew we had to go there. So we stayed there for a couple nights for the second part of our honeymoon. From the moment we walked in the door, we were treated as if we were guests in our friend’s (very nice) home. We were greeted with drinks and given a brief tour of the property, before we relaxed by the pool and watched the sunset.

The food, across the board, was AMAZING. We had two breakfasts, lunch at the spa, and dinner, and honestly, it was some of the best food we had ever had (and we like to go to a lot of nice restaurants!). It was exciting to see lots of animals so close too, including frogs, geckos, monkeys, and more!

We also did a day at the spa, which was by far the best spa experience we have ever had. It’s an entire day, and built with open air construction, so you basically have a spa day in the great outdoors. The spa, along with the rest of the property, is absolutely beautful. The combination of all the beauty and the superb service and friendliness of the staff made this the most incredible place place we have ever stayed. Don’t stay anywhere else!
