Road to get there was very hard to drive on and full of rocks and potholes. Bathroom was a separate room that was outdoors, covered by a wall of thin tarp and trees. It was a cool concept but I feel like people can hear you use the bathroom and flush the toilet. Also there was wildlife and bugs since it was outdoors. Restaurant was pretty good and staff was nice!
At check in, they took a photo of everyone's passport, which seems sketchy. Even children under 18. With a cell phone. I understand they need to write down the passport number of everyone, but taking a photo was weird.
We found a scorpion in the bathroom, so be careful. Beautiful grounds and animals around.
Advertised to have good internet connectivity.
Internet connectivity is terrible and disconnected intermittently

Tuvimos una buena estancia de 1 noche.
La comida es espectacular, la atención es muy muy buena.
El lugar es súper bonito, con vistas extraordinarias, se pueden ver lapas rojas al alcance de la mano.
La habitación que nos tocó es vieja y estaba descuidada.
Además el baño tiene un espacio abierto que da a afuera de la habitación, lo cual me parece riesgoso, ya que se puede meter un animal y causar daño al visitante.
Beautiful place to stay! In the jungle, bedrooms have AC. Pool is small but everyone was cool and respected each other’s space. Restaurant was really good and had so many options. Got to see some monkeys and tucans as I ate.
I had a really good experience here. The location secluded and is great for wildlife viewing. The food was good and they kept the facilities clean. I thought the staff was outstanding. Ceasar was very good and arranged transportation and coordinating some activities for me in Jaco.
This place is a hidden gem! Located in Tarcoles, about 30 minutes from Jaco, this property is surrounded by the lush jungle and has gorgeous macaws coming over frequently to snack on fruits and seeds at the restaurant patio.
The on-site restaurant serves a delicious breakfast and dinner and there’s also a nice pool where you can cool off on a hot sunny day. Staff is very friendly and welcoming.
I couldn’t recommend this place enough!
Staff are very welcoming and helpful.
We saw a lot of wildlife around the property more than in Carara Nacional Park. Around 4:45am howler monkey starts making noise and then tons of birds. We saw about 15 Scarlet macaws nearby the lodge.
Great place in the middle of nature. We enjoyed the pool after a very hot day.
The room is very comfy with a nice outdoor bathroom.
The buffet breakfast was a good surprise.
Cons: 1) Our bungalow was full with red ants - hotel just shared with us chemical spray and we spent a few hours spraying all areas with ants in our bungalow. And still at night they comes to our beds. Very inconvenient. 2) The road to the hotel from the main highway is too bumpy and hard to pass if you have small car. 3) Bathroom is included to the bungalow but technically it is open for outside and you are taking a shower and doing all other things outside with insects.
Pros: 1) Friendly staff. 2) Good breakfast with nice views. 3) Very natural experience and good quality beds and rooms equipment.
It was an excellent choice! Rooms are nice, beds are comfortable. Hotel is located 10min from Carara park. They offered us the Tarcoles cocodrile tour and it was amazing!
The facility needs some refreshing. Pool chairs were mismatched and broken or missing pads, condiments at the restaurant were empty for the whole time we were there, and towels were thin. On the plus side, the bungalos had comfortable beds and the outdoor showers were an interesting surprise.
Clean comfy bed and stunning views. Macaws and monkeys visit the dining area in the morning. So comical when a monkey stole the bird’s breakfast right in front of us.Staff told us about a shortcut to The crocodile bridge so we took that easy walk and saw these amazing creatures too. Very interesting shower set up water could have been a bit hotter but wasn’t too cold and I know it’s better for environment. It’s fairly far from Jaco but that suited us found Jaco too busy.
