Cabins are good some with patio with chairs and hamac. The room smelled musty but AC unit helped with humidity. The bathroom is limited with bare minimum. The staff was great, the restaurant is nice with view on the jungle. Nice breakfast

We only got to stay one night unfortunately. This place was beautiful. They gave us a complimentary drink upon arrival. It’s a cabin which was so cute! There’s a little bar and restaurant there. We also got a complimentary drink at the bar as well. I honestly don’t have anything bad to say about this place.

This property is nothing short of spectacular! It is a family run business and the genuinely care about you having your best visit to Costa Rica! The property is beautifully kept and the staff are super friendly. In my opinion if you don't stay here... you might regret it. We are world travellers and this place is one of the most memorable.
