El Castillo Luxury Boutique Hotel-

Our stay at El Castillo was spectacular. The staff is very friendly and helpful making all visitors very comfortable. The rooms all have incredible views of the ocean and are very clean, spacious and comfortable. The pool and patio surrounding the pool is very inviting with world class views of the ocean. We were also extremely impressed with breakfast lunch and dinner with excellent choices of fresh local choices. There is access to many activities from the hotel that the staff is very helpful in planning. We definitely plan to return.

We had SUCH an amazing time at El Castillo. The hotel is beautiful and the staff is amazing (Donnie, Francisco, Roxy and Steven are all so wonderful). The food that the chef Justin prepared is amazing. The rooms are clean and have great AC, the view and the grounds are nothing short of stunning. We will definitely be back again one day. Highly recommend staying here 10/10 if you are in the Uvita/Ojochal area on your Costa Rican travel.

The views, the staff, the food were amazing! I recommend the Flank Steak with chimichurri and fries for dinner. The pool was at perfect temperature and we enjoyed good coffee on our balcony in the morning! I cannot say enough about the staff. Very welcoming, accommodating and professional.

This is a fabulous hotel! I was there in January for a private art workshop. The food was delicious and the staff were amazing! Within a day or two they knew our names, room number and poolside cocktail preferences! The rooms were spacious, clean and simply furnished with an accent on local art. The staff made arrangements when we asked for a taxi to do a little shopping. All in all, it was a fabulous week in Osa, Costa Rica!

The hotel has a fantastic view and is conveniently located for many activities. Francisco is always around to offer a warm welcome and help guests whenever needed, and the manager, Steven is always ready to go the extra mile for whatever you need. A great in-house restaurant with a wide selection of other good places nearby will ensure you never go hungry.

El Castillo is rare combination of a luxury boutique hotel with a warm and dedicated staff. We spent six wonderful nights there. Our spa room and the public areas are beautifully furnished, but comfortable and not at all stuffy. The hotel is situated so that there are beautiful views of the Pacific from almost every place we found ourselves on the property. The biggest surprise was the quality of food at the hotel’s restaurant. Our room rate included breakfast daily which was wonderful, with fresh fruits and juices, and delicious choices from an extensive menu. We were so full from breakfast that we did not sample their lunch offerings. However, the restaurant dining was so extraordinary, that we ate dinner there on four of the six nights. We were particularly excited about Chef Justin’s creations. His blends of textures and flavors were a mix of Central American, Asian and European cuisines, providing wonderful unique dishes. And each plate was a visual work of art. None of what I mentioned would have been as great, were it not for the three staff members with whom guests interact. Roxy was warm and helpful, whether it was when she was in the restaurant or offering suggestions about things to do in the area. We had more contact with Donny and Francisco during the week due to their work schedules. These two guys were amazing. Both are authentically warm and generously spirited human beings. It felt like both genuinely cared about the quality of our experience and did whatever they could to meet our needs. If I owned a small hotel, I would want them on my staff! Even Stephen, the manager, made a point to introduce himself to us early during our stay. This was our third visit to Costa Rica, and, by far, our favorite one!
