    the lodge we first stayed in wasn’t as modern as the rest of the lodges we moved into.

    we loved how it was surrounded by nature, nice and quiet. the location was great for relaxing and going to the beach, with great restaurants nearby and not to far from Puerto Viejo in taxi. we stayed in the original room we booked but it was by the reception and was a last minute booking. but we asked if there was any better rooms with air conditioning. the staff was brilliant and after 1 night they moved us to a new lodge nearer the pool area. also they new it was our honeymoon and gave us a bottle of champagne and flowers on the bed. all in all great hotel and stay.

    Everything was honestly great, but it can get loud due to the howler monkeys - just be ready to embrace it.

    The location of this lodge is literally in the middle of the jungle, even if very close to the main road. The flora and fauna are absolutely amazing: you can spot (and hear) numerous birds, howler monkeys (luckily they stayed quite high up in the trees), etc. The lodge itself is huge, very well maintained, very clean and overall super comfortable. I was impressed at how clean the whole area was, given the wind, leaves constantly falling etc. The lodge also has a swimming pool, massage facilities and a restaurant, so one does not even have to travel for long to get access to mostly everything. There is also a small supermarket at 5 mins walking distance, and there are also some other restaurants within walking distance, which is great.

    The hot tub which we paid extra for would not get hot. The bed was like sleep on rocks. Also our toilet flush switch was broken so I had to open the top of the toilet to flush the whole time. Not worth the price of upgrade.

    It looks so luxurious! aesthetically pleasing absolutely! The massage and body scrub were fantastic. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate our lack of Spanish. Breakfast was fantastic as well as their dinner options. Restaurant was incredible.

    Alex and his sister on reception were warm and helpful After an issue with the first bungalow, they addressed it right away and made sure everything was good for the rest of my stay. It made all the difference. Quiet and secluded Restaurant service was good, but staff could be a little warmer.

    Linens and towels need replacing. While clean and changed daily upon request, they are worn and thin. This would be a simple low cost but noticeable update.

    The advertisement for the property was very misleading. I expected far better accommodates than I received. the location is very remote in the middle of nowhere. if you enjoy outdoor living in wilderness than you might like the place. entirely to much nature for me. no hot water, no AC, Electricity is poor, the pool has bugs, and spiders everywhere, and unknown animal roaming the property. I’m sorry I did not take any pictures I just want to get out of there.

    Breakfast in the morning was pretty decent.

    As others have mentioned, the wifi was terrible in the room. Also, there is only one pool and it closes early. The breakfast was very limited. And the noises from the outside will wake you up at night.

    Me and two other friends stayed here for a couple of days. We got to see a sloth resting about 6 feet from our bungalow. The hammock was nice outside.
