"A comfortable, secluded, and secure retreat in the rain forest above Ojochal. Everything worked well, including the air conditioning, power and solar backup, hot water, and barbeque. The property manager was welcoming, informed, and very responsive to all our questions. Surprising benefits were the proximity of a well-appointed supermarket, and high-end shops in Ojochal, including deli, juices and smoothie bar, bakery, restaurants, and more (we didn’t know anything about these going in). But what we loved most were the birds and butterflies, which were diverse, abundant, and in-your-face, because the forest is close on all sides. There is a walkway under the eaves around the upstairs bedroom, giving 360-degree viewing at canopy-level. There is also excellent birding above and below along the unfrequented access road, meaning one doesn’t have to drive. But other habitats are accessible within half an hour’s drive, including the beach (can you tell we’re birders?). Shockingly few bugs for early wet season in the tropics – how come? Overall, our stay was relaxing, and full of delights and wonders. What more do you need?"

"this place is absolutely unbelievable! The high-end finishes, the view the monkeys the pool just everything about it is above and beyond. I’m already dreaming of the next time I can make it there. Thank you so much for making this magical place available to regular folks like me."

"My stay at this jungle resort in Costa Rica was nothing short of magical. From the moment I arrived, I was blown away by the lush surroundings, the peaceful atmosphere, and the incredible hospitality. The resort is beautifully tucked into nature, allowing you to truly disconnect and soak in the beauty of the jungle. A special shoutout to Dan, the owner, who went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable and memorable. He was incredibly kind, helpful, and always ready with great local tips and stories. Whether it was arranging transportation, recommending hidden gems nearby, or just checking in to make sure I had everything I needed, Dan’s warmth and dedication made a real difference. If you’re looking for a place to relax, explore, and connect with nature—this is it. I can’t wait to come back!"

"Hotel run by friendly hosts who are warm and welcoming. "

"Will come back again "

"The villa was modern, clean and spacious. "

"Our stay on this property was amazing everything from communication to all the extra amenities provided that were not part of the description. Nacho was excellent and even though we arrived much later than expected, he was there assisting us with everything you could imagine. We would highly recommend this property to anyone that was looking for a place to stay in Costa Rica."

"We absolutely loved this place. Vayu Retreat is a very charming and quiet mini hotel with only 4 beautiful rooms, a great infinity pool, spacious terrasses to relax and a nice restaurant. The service from Marc is absolutely phenomenal. Everything is done with taste and the place has all the amenities you will need."

"This home is gorgeous! The grounds are incredible, the views are stunning. We had daily visits from toucans and other beautiful birds and butterflies. We heard the monkeys but never saw them. One morning a pizote ran through the backyard. Walter and Adolf were super helpful with anything we needed while we were there. We asked Adolf about an excursion that was a bit off the beaten path. He fully delivered with an excursion that could not have been further from tourists! This was a truly rural experience with a friend of his named Rim, who met us at the end of one of the rivers in his boat, took us to his home on the beach island of Playa Garza where him and his wife cooked us lunch, showed us around the island a bit and basically left us to explore the island and beautiful beach alone. Rim even gave me a whole fresh red snapper he had caught to take with me back to our home Fair warning, this excursion was great, but it was waaaayyyy off the beaten path so truly for those looking for a bit of an adventure. Everything else was as mentioned by others. 4WD is a must. The road up to the house is long, windy and up and down some pretty serious hills. I recommend video recording the way up and down the first time on your phone just in case. All in all an absolute amazing experience! "
