Amazing location in the middle of their own little bit of jungle as you'd expect from the name. A big river runs through the property and gives plenty of scenic shots for a keen photographer. I stayed in a premium room over in the Santa Maria 'village' bit. It's separate from the main hotel, nice and quiet and very pretty, with ranch style rooms centred around a pretty garden with bandstand. It's only a two minute walk from the restaurant etc. Nice big airy room, spotlessly clean. Huge bathroom. Massive TV. Lovely towels and bedding. Good AC. I went for all inclusive at the last minute which is just as well as torrential rain hit for three days and the main roads were closed due to flooding! All the local reserves were closed (Carara is a few minutes away) so I had to stay out. Plenty of food, drinks, snacks to keep me going. And the open reception areas and cafe were great to sit and read, edit photos etc while the rain pelted down. Some lovely wildlife did appear just as I was leaving and the sun came out, and families were in the pool. Really friendly staff, especially Daniela who helped me sort a few trip problems. A lovely place and highly recommended - I was just really unlucky with the weather.

Mosquitos up the jungle track! Not many around the hotel itself though.

What i did not like was the total disrespect towards my wife and a family member by Mrs Daniela totally uncalled for, and employee like her is bad news for a company ,she should think twice treating a guests with disrespect, she gets pay by customers otherwise she wouldn't have a check. apart from that the other employees live to expectations , the food service manager was very human and acted professional.Thumps up for him!

Good restaurant and very good buffet breakfast with plenty of choice. The location is good for visiting crocodiles in the nearby river Tarcoles. The rooms were large and the AC powerful. Rooms were clean and beds quite comfortable. The room amenities were adequate but this is not a luxury hotel.

The hotel also offers a rainforest walkway and other amenities but all of these come at a considerable extra cost which was disappointing.

Location to NP Carara and staffs were nice and kind.

The staffs did not know that one could get ticket for NP Carara upon arrives with credit card only. The online reservation system was too confusing for a non Spanish speaking person. The lodge confirmed my booking initially for 3 nights but later forced me to change to 2 nights. This caused domino effect on my schedule. I have never had such thing happen with a reputable lodging before.

This lodge is amazing. We had been here many many times, even taking here our groups for birdwatching and we/they all love it. Hotel grounds are amazing, nice trails, trees, flowery bushes, river, birds, mammals and more. Restaurant is lovely at the river, personal is very kind and helpful. All waiters are awesome, Luis and Melkin are great and our favorites, but the others as well.. just don't know all of their names to mention.🤔 😉 Big thank to them for a lively little cake for my birthday!😉Food is also good with lot of vegetables and fruits🙂 Receptionists are also all very kind, Fiorella and Magaly are always helpful and smiling.. THANKS TO ALL AGAIN FOR A WONDERFUL STAY... AS ALWAYS FOR MANY MANY YEARS!

Hotel is located in a beautiful valley with lots of greenery, a river you can swim in and a very picturesque ‘colonial village’ The frog ponds next to reception attract tons of beautiful frogs in the evening. Nice pools, lovely grounds with lots of facilities like football table and poolside bar. Rooms are clean and spacious

Food at the hotel is not fantastic but when you follow the road a bit further up the hill, there is a great restaurant with amazing views across the whole coast. (5 min drive)

Staff solved all issues reported. Great attitude. Nature forest, river inside the locación are Wonderful. The location is convenient to visit beaches close to the hotel.

Minor events like no hot water working, incorrect room keys were given, tv not working were all expeditedly solved.

I love the area, and the cleanness

The shower’s head. They could pay a little more attention to it. My hot water setting didn’t work. Also they could have more variety in the food, particularly the a la carte menu.

Buffet meals were very good Grounds were great

Hot water for shower not working at first; then when fixed, ran hot-cold-hot, minor inconvenience Room had no place to set luggage

The service. The staff felt like a big family. The room was great for a short honeymoon, but needs maintenance. The hotel was not super new, but has a wonderful ambience with soul.

The room was great for a short honeymoon, but needs maintenance. The power failed twice and the toilet had a reflux... The food was a bit on the colder side. The use of colorants for the desserts was all too much for me.
