Will come and stay. Close to some tourist spots but far from the city. Love the assistance I get with planning my trip and being treated like a family.

This place is cozy and beautiful. If you want to be surrounded by warm people and lush gardens, this is the place. The water feature with gold fish on the back patio is like a small meditation retreat. A lot of love when went into building this little gem.

Exceeded expectations!
Booked one night near the airport for an early flight - far exceeded expectations! The loveliest, friendliest and homiest hostel I’ve ever stayed in! Super welcoming, were so helpful with my limited Spanish, had really nice areas to hang out and even managed to put the Ireland rugby match on the tv for me! They arranged an airport transport for me which was great and I can’t leave a review without mentioning Holly the dog who clearly runs the show, a sweet sweet pup!

Very hospitable and kind people! We loved it!
Gardens house was fantastic! They were super nice and very hospitable. For a small price, they even made us dinner which was absolutely delicious! I would highly recommend staying at Gardens house if you need a simple place to sleep near the airport. The front and back areas were filled with beautiful plants and there was a hammock which was nice!

Great night’s sleep after flying, amazing service
They were communicative, friendly, responsive. I was able to chat with them at any time and they were so helpful. They were willing to pick me up from the airport in middle of the night and when I didn’t need that, they had someone waiting up for me, greeting me and helping me with my bags. The room was comfortable, beautiful furnished, private and clean. The shower and bed were great. When I left, I got my first “Pura Vida” and a friendly goodbye. I would definitely come here again.
