Wunderbar gelegene Lodge, tolle Aussicht, große Bungalows. Sehr zu empfehlen ist der Hanging Bridge Trail, der gleich neben der Lodge weggeht! Liebevoll serviertes Frühstück! Man kann auf Bestellung Abendessen, einfach, aber sehr gut.(Casado) Die Beleuchtung im Standard Bungalow ist nicht gerade für Romantiker, aber das ist eigentlich das Einzige, was man bekritteln kann!

We had the deluxe bungalow, it was very clean, spacious and private. Very safe place that is just outside the small town of Bijagua. Can get pretty windy at night which is normal in the mountains, I am a sensitive sleeper so earplugs and eye covers recommended to help you get a good nights rest. Reasonable price for a pretty cute place with friendly prompt service and nice breakfast. About 20-30min drive from Tenorio National Park to see Rio Celeste.

Pas de service de chambre comme prévu, pas d’articles de toilette, nouvelle gérance. Rapport qualité/prix inacceptable... Jeune réceptionniste Mélanie par contre adorable. Joli parcours avec ponts dans les arbres depuis l’hôtel

The customer service was great(thank you Kevin!) although it was the hiking trails that brought me here. Birds and monkeys, even a puma on the property in the morning (we only saw the tracks.) The breakfast was also fabulous, and the rooms so comfortable!!!!

The staff was wonderful. The lodging was okay. The beds were hard but the water was hot for showers. The room had no climate control and their were airgaps that made the nights cold.

Hier hat man alles: Die Natur direkt vor dem Hotelzimmer, gepaart mit Komfort und sehr netten Menschen, die einen umsorgen und den Aufenthalt zum Genuss machen. Abgerundet wird das Ganze mit vielen Ausflugsmöglichkeiten in der Nähe. Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen, wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder!
