My stay at Ringle Resort was truly good, given the stunning views and well-maintained gardens. However, I encountered some service hiccups in the restaurant, which dampened the overall experience. The tranquil atmosphere makes it a perfect getaway, but getting there poses a challenge since it's somewhat hidden off the main road.

Ringle is perched on a hill overlooking San Jose, offering amazing views and a peaceful atmosphere surrounded by tropical flora. However, its hidden location made it tricky to find, as even locals struggled to give directions.

I recently enjoyed my stay at Hotel Ringle Resort, nestled on a hill with stunning views of San Jose. The hotel is beautifully maintained and filled with tropical foliage, creating a tranquil atmosphere. While the breakfast was good, I'd love to see more variety each day. Overall, despite a few minor hiccups with service and dining, my experience was fantastic.

Situated in Escazu, the hotel is about 30 minutes from the airport and offers an amazing view. The grounds are lovely with lots of flowers and trees, but getting to nearby restaurants required a bit of effort since it's nestled away from the main road.
