At Hotel Hacienda Tayutic, a small luxury hotel in Costa Rica, history, nature and art are combined to form the essence of your hacienda experience. Just look at the architecture: your host and owner Federico Ortuño-Victory did extensive research on the true rural colonial architecture of Costa Rica and then recreated it here. The Hacienda house and your comfortable rooms in it all feature accurate historical details-alongside all modern conveniences, of course.

To renew oneself means to realize your potential in an integral way, forgetting worries, changing your life-rhythm, opening yourself to new experiences and enjoying oneself unreservedly. Tayutic Hacienda is naturally a place for renovation, as the Ortuño-Victory family knows from long experience, and they would like you to share it with them. See and feel for yourself the tranquility of hacienda life as it was originally, a style of gracious living close to nature that will soothe the spirit

You will delight in their family's Costa Rican new cuisine, wander among works of art and beautiful tropical forests, harmonizing the inner you with the age-old therapies of our natural spa. You will also discover our country's ancient legends and historical paintings as you relax in comfortable accommodations, styled after the authentic colonial architecture of Costa Rica.

You will feel like the owner of your own hacienda as you fall into the routine of a day in the country every morning-if that is your desire-because Hacienda Tayutic is for enjoyment, inspiration, and your personal rediscovery. They also offer a variety of creative workshops and tours led by experts, and you will have the opportunity to rub elbows with local artists and artisans at work.

Enjoy the beautiful English gardens, complete with hedge labyrinth, latticework pergola with flowering vines and reflecting pool, in which you will see mirrored the 120-year-old chapel of Sitio de Mata village-all combined in an eclectic Latin American way that gives it an original touch.

Be their guest, relax and feel yourself part of the rich history of a family whose legacy can be traced back to the 18th century. As you bask in the comfort and warmth of our great room, admiring the valuable historical paintings, furniture and other artifacts that make up Hacienda Tayutic's unique ambience, you will know you are in a very special place.

All guest bedrooms have wireless Internet, satellite television, coffee maker (with our own Hacienda brand of coffee, naturally) and large designer bathrooms unlike any others.
