This place was perfect for our family of 4. We loved the back patio with table and mini kitchen. It was beautiful to sit and eat breakfast on the patio watching the hummingbirds in the flowers. The staff was helpful and friendly. They helped us book a couple excursions as well.

This was our favorite spot that we stayed in Costa Rica and we all wish that we stayed longer. We loved our little cabinita and it was perfect for the 5 of us. The blooming plants along with the walkway was beautiful. The bar was an extra bonus that we really enjoyed - so nice that it was right there on the property. The AC worked great too! Of course it was very nice to relax in the jacuzzi after a long day of travel.

Amazing experience. The grounds were so lush and beautiful. The restaurant was also great- fairly priced and quick. Drinks were soooo delicious. Also overlooks the lush trees and even saw monkeys from here!! Another highlight is the staff. Specifically Kenneth in the bar and Isaac at the restaurant. So friendly, welcoming, helpful and knowledgeable. This is less of a resort feel and more mountain cabin, but still has really great perks like the jacuzzi - we went in every night. Amazing spot!
