Quel petit coin de paradis. Notre petite famille avons adoré notre expérience. D’abord le site est situé près des attraits de la région. De plus il offre des possibilités de randonnées que nous n’avons malheureusement pas eu le temps de faire. Le chalet est tout simplement magnifique et en communion avec la nature qui l’entoure. Ceci dit, gare aux moustiques lorsque vous êtes à l’extérieur. Le service y est attentionné et chaleureux. Bons petits déjeunes pour partir la journée. Merci à nos hôtes Cécile et Éric

When traveling through Costa Rica, everyone should take the opportunity to stay at a finca (farm). Finca Mei Tai is perfect - grounds and views are beautiful! With just 3 rooms, you feel like an honored guest of Eric & Cecile’s. The location is close to Bijagua so you have great access to the restaurants and Rio Celeste. In addition, we had the cottage with the private outdoor lounge area with stereo. It is a great touch which my teenage daughters loved! The breakfast was an absolute delight. Fruit, eggs, fresh bread, local jams, cold cuts, juice, hot chocolate, coffee, tea even kid’s cereal if your kids are craving it. So happy that we stayed here.

The B&B was located on a scenic and spacious property. The owners were extremely nice, catering and took time to give the history of the property and the region. Finally the guest room was large, clean and had everyone you could desire for a comfortable stay. I will recommend this property to friends and family who plan on staying in the area and we will be back ourselves as well.

My girlfriend and I sincerely enjoyed our 1 night stay at Finca Mei Tai. Eric and Cecile were the most genuinely friendly hosts we have met in Costa Rica have a very interesting life story (and that is saying something!). Their finca is on a beautiful piece of land set in the mountains, which we were encouraged to enjoy on a short hike through the cacao plantations after a delicious complimentary breakfast made by Eric and Cecile themselves. The room was uniquely decorated, spotless, and very comfortable. The location is perfect for access to the Tenorio Volcano/Rio Celeste hike, and also great if your looking for a longer stay of the beaten path!

We stayed here 3 nights during our vacation to Costa Rica. It was very nice with a comfortable room and great breakfast. The owners took a personal interest in us to help us find activities we would enjoy while we were spending some of our vacation time in their beautiful part of Costa Rica.
