Staff is fabulous, super friendly and helpful. Liked the breakfast and home cooked dinner. The covered walk ways and ubiquity if provided umbrellas are great when it's pouring buckets. Nice touch to provide rubber boots for forest walking. The walls between some rooms are super thin which can be annoying with noisy neighbors.

Serene place
It was amazing. It was serene. Really a place to be still and quiet as there’s no tv. A place to talk and relax more. The receptionist and everyone you came across was very nice. Offered recommendation for eateries. highly recommend if you’re looking to unwind and connect with nature.

We loved this place, despite the rain, and the fact that it had no air conditioning. It would have been nice, but there was a ceiling fan, and an oscillating stand up fan. The only downside, was the parking was about a 8 minute walk, out of the room down a path, across a bridge and up a small hill.

Ecolodge dans un très bel environnement au cœur de la forêt luxuriante. Calme, bon petit-déjeuner varié. Cuisine commune vaste et bien équipée. En plus nous avons été surclassés, ce qui est toujours appréciable. Chambres grandes et très propres, comme tout le complexe. Superbe séjour, nous recommandons à 1000 %.

Bon hôtel dans la regions de Sarapiquí
Hotel en plein milieu de la nature, d'ailleurs on se gare à l'extérieur (mais parking sécurisé) et on y arrive à pieds avec une brouette pour porter les bagages. Diner sous forme de buffet (pas énorme mais suffisant). Petit dej correct.
