My wife and I stayed 5 nights at Mike’s beautiful farm. The property was so beautiful, and I really enjoyed walking the trails in the morning before the excellent complimentary breakfast that was included. The location of the property was also excellent for our “home base” for our Central Valley experience. John was an excellent host and was very knowledgeable and responsive. Also took advantage of having dinner a couple of nights on the property. Not only was the food excellent but the Chef Karina was very fun to converse with. Would highly recommended staying here, and I would definitely stay here again.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An absolutely peaceful stay 🌞 We absolutely loved everything about this villa in Costa Rica! From the moment we arrived, we were amazed by the spectacular view of the mountains, the lush nature, and the beautiful pool. The place is even more beautiful in person and offers a perfect setting for relaxing. The included lunches were delicious, and we also loved being able to enjoy a great dinner on site. Everything was thought out to make our stay a pleasant and carefree one. We also really loved the dogs on the property, who were adorable and kept us company during our stay 🐶❤️. We also loved watching the little iguanas roam around the property and waking up to the sound of tropical birds 🦎🦜🦋. This immersion in nature really added a magical and authentic touch to our experience. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend this villa. 🌴☀️

We absolutely loved the surroundings and the villa, beautiful and peaceful. The host was always quick to reply and the staff were attentive and thoughtful. The included breakfasts were delicious and we had dinner there three times and all were fantastic. We stayed here for a week and traveled to the coast (Jaco, Manuel Antonio and Uvita) and the Poás Volcano area for day trips. Highly recommended!!

Stunning views, a gorgeous villa with pool and fun hikes right on your doorstep! It was the perfect way to spend the last night of our time in Costa Rica. The hosts were exceptionally responsive, the location was very easy to find and we were met with a very warm welcome. The surrounding area is stunning and we loved every second of this stay. Thank you very much Michael & John for this great ending to our trip! 🙏

I had an exceptional experience here at Finca Chilanga. You can tell that a lot of love and care went into curating this farm and property. The highlights for me were my interactions with the host John, dinners with an extraordinary chef Karina, and spending time with the beautiful dogs on the property. If you have a chance, opt in for the dinners here. They are top notch and a Karina puts a lot of love into what she does with the menu. Overall I highly recommend Finca Chilanga especially for those who want to have a serene and peaceful getaway.
