A beautiful jungle retreat
We truly enjoyed our stay at this off-the-beaten-path property. Tucked away along the coastal highway, it is in close proximity to the many beautiful beaches and waterfalls of Osa province. We were given excellent advice on nearby sights by the resort owner. The resort bungalow was roomy, well built, and contained a small kitchen that was a huge bonus to my family. The included breakfast was delicious and the service wonderful.

So so
It's a lovely setting in the jungle but very muggy of course and the fans in the room can only help a little. We did see a very big and healthy cockroach as we were unpacking though. We informed the front desk of our roommate and they sprayed the room. When we returned, it was laying dead in the bathroom. You definitely need a car here! It's longer than 3km to Matapalo beach.

Rainforest Bungalow
This place is awesome! Highly recommend. The staff are all very friendly, and the grounds are immaculate. You will legitimately feel like you are living in the rainforest. Go ahead and spring the extra $$ for the private bungalow- well worth it! The road to La Palapa is very bumpy, but our 2WD Toyota Yaris managed it just fine.

Nice hotel in the rainforest
Love the ambiance of the hotel. Very clean and friendly staff. When at the hotel, it feels as if you are in the rainforest. The hotel is very well maintain and the rooms are very clean.

Paradise in the rain forest
This is an ecolodge. The grounds are a paradise, a Garden of Eden in the middle of the rain forest, the attention devoted to the gardening and outdoor milieu is remarkable, the work of a lifetime and of love. We highly recommend staying here, extended our initial two nights to four. For the price it is an absolute steal. The rooms (cabins) are spacious, with a fully equipped kitchen and pleasant furnishings, but in rustic style. Very comfortable, but not luxurious if that is what you are looking for. Internet is spotty in the rooms, no coffee in the rooms and no a/c (though the fans were enough most of the time). Pool is for cooling off only, not big enough to swim. Breakfast is a simple version of the standard Costa Rican breakfast. Do not eat other meals here, we had a dinner which was simply terrible. The staff is friendly, but with the exception of the owner and front desk do not speak English. We loved staying here, it is a paradise, but there is a tension between the loving effort they devoted to the grounds, cabins, the exterior, and the level of service provided. There is a feeling that everything has been very carefully measured, e.g. you get just a certain amount of fruit for breakfast, not more. So we recommend forgetting the limited problems and highkly recommend staying here.

Beautiful Place to Stay
I was looking for a place to stay close to Dominical and booked this at the last minute. It cam up as The Deal of the Day. So glad we stayed there. It was beautiful, charming, clean, green and the staff was great. I'd highly recommend it.

Excellent hotel, great staff, very well located
Great location, super close to the fabulous 'Praia Linda'. It was a great base to visit the Pacific Coast and Parque Nacional Manuel Antonio. The Hotel staff is very friendly, rooms are very nice and the Hotel is truly located inside the tropical forest. Really recomend it for nature lovers who also enjoy good comfort and premium location. Excellent value for money.

Costa Rica is not for everyone! :)
CR has many different lodging options. This is def an "ecolodge". You will hear animals,find bugs plus more in CR. If you want 5 star accomm do not stay at an ecolodge! If you are going to stay at one this is good place.loved all the beauty in the gardens. The owner has invested alot into the grounds. There is even a nice hiking trail & waterfall on the property.I also liked how he had a ton of signs all over the property directing which way to go.owner is a very knowledgeable man We had many conversations with him& enjoyed his stories as well as help with activities & area. He may have a strong personality for some but he really does not intend to be rude. We were fine once we understood his personality type. He was nice to my family.The breakfast was VERY tasty as well as one of the best that we've had on our travels in CR. Beans/rice,eggs, fresh fruit & 3 different types of homemade bread along with 2 amazing jams!! (Yum!) The coffee & fresh juice was also a nice addition to bfast. He offers a nice dinner f (best meal in 10 days!) Dined both nts of stay. Make sure to ask what he is preparing for the eve.There is a not a menu to choose from. Also food can be expensive in CR. There is a 10% gratuity + 12% tax added on. 1st nt we had 3 plates & 2nd nt we had 4 plates. I pd a extra $129- US dollars at ck out for meals. Also Pd expected extra $100 @ ck in. Was told expedia reservation was just for 2 ( had 2 kids w/us)So I was very dissapointed I had to pay more $!!:(
