We didn't stay. The place was deserted accept for some sound (maybe a tv) coming from the furthest structure, leaving us with an eirie/ weird feeling of being alone in a strange place.

This is the most beautiful surroundings I’ve ever spent a night in. Birds, flowers, may be monkeys. Pierre is a wonderful host.

What a gem. Who needs a rainforest tour. Just stay here and sleep right with the animals of Costa Rica.

Beautiful property with a lot of Heliconias and birds. Property is well kept. The room had AC which was good to counter the somewhat humid conditions when we were there. Food options are limited but that didn’t bother us too much as we were outside most of the time.

If I could, I would have stayed longer in this establishment. The pictures and description does not do justice to this amazing place. The rooms are old but in reasonable state, and they are clean. The breakfast is good and with a perfect view over the garden. The garden is the best thing about the place. The property is actually like an island with a small old metal bridge and it is full of mutiple species of Heliconia and also a nice untouched forest for small walk and discovery. We saw both spider and howler monkeys, sloths (with their children) and numerous types of birds. The property has direct access to the river so you can bath there. It is simplely amazing!

Gentillesse du proprio. Air climatisé. Eau chaude. Tranquillité. Beaucoup beaucoup d’oiseaux pour nous les amoureux de la faune ailée. Avons vu plus de 50 espèces d’oiseaux. Avons vu de petites chauves souris. Avons vu deux paresseux. Beaux jardins de fleurs et de plantes.Très bon déjeuner Costa ricien. Je vous le recommande.

Wir haben selten einen so engagierten und netten Gastgeber wie Pierre erlebt.
Frühstück nach Wunsch und auf Anfrage extra für uns ein großartiges Barbecue gemacht.
Er war immer present und ansprechbar. Wir würden jederzeit wieder kommen.

Leuk verblijf in het groen. Veel planten en dieren kunnen hier spotten. Het ontbijt is prima. Sommige dingen zijn een beetje verouderd maar het is prima!

Nous avons passé l’une des meilleures nuit de notre vie pour le cadre idyllique en pleine jungle ! Cette propriété est absolument merveilleuse, son gérant est très sympathique. Bonus pour la baignade dans la rivière. Lieu qui protége son environnement pour la faune et la flore. Et le repas du soir ainsi que le petit déjeuner étaient excellents.

Die Unterkunft lag in einem wünderschönen Garten und beim Frühstück konnte man die Vögel beobachten, weil diese mit Obst gefüttert wurden.

Sehr freundliches und bemühtes Personal. Zimmer sind soweit ok, Frühstück war landestypisch. Toll waren die Vögel und Reptilien, die während des Frühstücks beobachtet werden konnten.
