Hidden Valley Wilderness Lodge

The Hidden Valley Inn is a great place to get away from it all, relax and just decompress. Situated in the Mountain Pine Ridge Reserve, the Inn is quaint, quiet and totally amazing. The food is excellent, the accommodations are top notch and the staff extremely attentive. There are tons of things to see and do and all help make the Hidden valley inn the place to stay. I would not hesitate to recommend this property to anyone.

Wonderful property with amazing staff. This place is incredible!

The whole experience was amazing. The food, the rooms and the customer service was beyond perfect. The hike and the atmosphere was beautiful.

Hidden Valley Inn was gorgeous- easy to find, but secluded. We hiked for hours without seeing anyone, and appreciated the advice from staff about where to hike and safety tips. The pools and waterfalls are worth a trip in themselves! The rooms/cottages were comfortable, clean and had everything we needed. Room service and dinner service was great.

The Lodge is lifted in a wonderful spot, especially for birders. The staff was very helpful and accommodating. If you're a birder, be sure to take a trip or two with Marvin. He is expert at finding birds and identifying them by sight and sound. The food was very good, though perhaps a bit expensive. Highly recommended.

It is beautiful property well maintained and food was good,only problem is the approach road is not good

Incredibly beautiful. So much to see on the 7200 acres. Abundant wildlife . Pine forest and broadleaf jungle. Jaguar Reserve. Waterfalls everywhere. Could not believe what we were seeing. Made it hard to travel off the property to see other sites. Staff was wonderful. Ofelia ,Marissa Jaime,Hector made us feel right at home.Really looked out for us. Accommodations exquisite. Food and drinks top shelf. Must return. Just scratched the surface in five days.

Hidden Valley Inn & Reserve is a small lodge with cottages that provides a high level of customer service. Expect friendly attention from all of the staff. I recommend visiting the butterfly falls and secret pools. Hiking in the area can be a little deceptive as the area is hilly and the humidity and heat can be high, so consider booking a ride with the lodge (or drive yourself) to the trail head. Mountain biking on the property is limited to the roads so don't expect any single track shredding; rather expect good cardio work outs. We also visited Caracol with the lodge guide. Not nearly as excavated as other ruins but not as busy either and you're already in the general area. We rented a jeep 4x4 from Crystal at the airport and drove. Had no problem what so ever but our weather was pretty dry. Very wet weather would be different as the the dirt roads to and around the lodge are pretty much packed clay. Gnats were a considerable bummer. The buggers would actually draw a little drop of blood. Take light weight long sleeves and pants. The room will need a little attention soon; new mattress, some grout work, but that's just a heads up to set your expectations, not really a knock on the lodge. Financially a shout out to Jamie, our happy and helpful front desk man and Marissa (sp? sorry!), our bartender who actually know who to make a real martini!

Das Hotel ist absolut spitze - leider (für uns) an der falschen Lage. Die 75minütige Fahrt dahin war durch den Schlamm nur mit einem 4x4 zu bewältigen. Man meint lange, im falschen Film am falschen Ort zu sein und würde in dieser Wildnis nie ein so tolles Hotel vermuten. War ein total gemütliches Hotel unter deutsch/afrikanischer Leitung, Spitzen-Küche, ruhige Lage, schöner Garten. Kann nur mit Superlativen um mich schmeissen. Aber, man muss sich wirklich der Lage gewusst sein.

Absolutely wonderful place to stay! From the moment we walked in the door, everyone was welcoming. The food was excellent, the cabins were clean, comfortable and beautiful. It was amazing to wake up to the smell of pine trees and the sight of parrots.
