Beautiful, serene property. Very nice host and hostess. Loved the waterfall hike. It was the highlight of our trip. We were there by ourselves and could swim. If you’re into exploring and not a resort travel style this place is fabulous. We came here from JW in Guanacaste and loved this more than the resort. Clean and comfy. Breakfast was delicious and tastefully served. Be mindful of the hike though. Not super easy. Hiking shoes , poles and certainly water shoes, towel, and water are a must.

Unfortunately it was not what I expected. My room did not include air conditioning and this was very uncomfortable for us because the mosquitoes approached us. Turning on the hot water was very uncomfortable and difficult, during the morning we did not have hot water to shower. When I booked my room I never saw that the room did not include those things. Otherwise I would pay more for a better one or I would not book it at this place. Overall the staff was very friendly and the breakfast was good.

This place was fantastic! We wanted a more off the beaten path, authentic experience and this was perfect. The staff spoke only Spanish which we so enjoyed. We don’t speak Spanish well (ok hardly at all) but with Google translate and gesturing, no problem at all. There is a wonderful 1.5 mile (one way, 3 mile out and back) hike to a waterfall view right from their property! We saw lizards and frogs and I’m sure you could see other wildlife. Breakfast was great and we watched beautiful birds the whole time. We saw a Tucan there! The cabins are spread out enough that it felt very private. Even at full capacity it would t be a lot of people around. There is a great little pool there, warm, a little bigger than a hot tub. The town is small but has enough restaurants to choose from and at least one grocery store. We loved Ristorante Merisqurria Poro for seafood, chicken fajitas, and nachos. We would definitely recommend this if you want to get away from tons of tourists and all that comes with tourists. We went on way from Liberia to La Fortuna (which is way touristy but has stuff to do).

Beautiful cabins in remote mountainous area. Staff are great but no one speaks English (reminder to me to learn Spanish) so communication is difficult. I had problems checking in because I’d paid through Expedia (or thought I did) but they weren’t going to let me checkin without direct payment to them. With the language barrier this was hard to sort out until I called an intermediary. The breakfast and dinners were surprisingly good but we had no car so no access to anything for lunch. We were only there for 2 days on the last leg of our trip. We mostly enjoyed hanging out on our deck watching and listening to the numerous birds. We’d already done Rio Celeste on the way there so there wasn’t much else to do but walk around the area. Our first night was interrupted by a screaming fight by a couple in the lodge beside us. Because it was in Spanish, we had no idea what it was about but it felt scary for my daughter to hear. One of the owners interceded so it escalated but finally settled. (This is no reflection on the lodge, but the visitors). The last night I was bit about a hundred times in the bed by something. Not bed bugs, but maybe tiny red ants. Otherwise it was an adventure and pretty tranquil!

This is an excellent property for bird watching and for walking. The property sits on the edge of mountainous rain forest and has an excellent private walking trail approx. 2.5km in length (one way) and a shorter lookout trail. The property is quite beautiful with lots of fruit and berry trees for birds and a couple hummingbird feeders. The staff were fine although spoke little English for the most part. Nothing Google Translate couldn't fix though. Breakfast was decent and the cabins were pretty comfy with a few things a little on the rickety side. The cabins were a little more expensive compared to other places we stayed but the private trail made things worth it to us. We would recommend nature lovers to spend time here!

Es un lugar rústico, para descanzar y disfrutar de la naturaleza y para esto no se requiere de grandes instalaciones pero si, que esté rodeado de naturaleza y senderos para caminar y admirar la flora y fauna, todo eso en este lugar, recomendado. Producen su propia electricidad con energía hidroeléctrica.
