Découvrez cet endroit béni des Dieux. Eco lodge tout confort et service impeccable. Giovanni le patron vous accueille avec joie et bonne humeur, et ( Louis son adjoint parle le français). Un hôtel où il fait bon séjourner avec villa, appartements, ou chambres au choix de votre budget. Très propre, service et conseils toujours avec le sourire et bienveillance. La cuisine est typique et pleine d'amour. Nous y retournerons lors de notre prochain voyage au CR. Vous arrivez en clients ou repartirez en amis tellement ils sont adorables. A découvrir sans aucune hésitation.

Giovanni is a great host; he's always attentive and aware of all his guests' needs. He's very attentive and helpful, a true professional in his field. It's clear that Gio enjoys his role. I was promised a nighttime frog tour, which was spectacular. The facility has a large jungle area where you can admire several types of frogs. We were able to see blue-jeans frogs, green frogs, and others. It was definitely an adventure we all enjoyed and will always treasure. I can't wait to return to the hotel again.

Fantastic family friendly lodge. Giovanni, Luis, & lodge dog Thor really made us feel special. We loved the views, food, & ambiance. Our kids will remember this place always - especially Thor the dog. We plan to come back. Highly recommend this place because it helped make our vacation extraordinary.

My stay felt like visiting family. My family and I spent time just sitting and conversing with the owner and staff over coffee between visiting the volcano and hot springs, shopping, etc. I even got to assist in making a traditional Costa Rican breakfast for my family and other guests. Besides being immersed in nature at the hotel, the cooking lesson was a memorable experience. A return visit is already in the works.
