"Great location... very friendly staff."

9.0

Quiet, room besides forest, lot's of birds, monkeys, deers. Lovely trails. A very short walk, the Rio Frio is bustling with birds, caymans and other animals.

Room needs a small fridge and a ceiling fan. The AC is adequate, but the fan would make the air circulate and the fridge allow to have drinks in the room without having to ask for ice all the time.

"Fab Lodge with wonderful food."

10.0

This is a lovely lodge in a beautiful setting. The staff are all very friendly and go out of their way to help. The food is exceptionally good and also very good value for money. After a month of travelling in Costa Rica, I would say it was probably the best food we had the whole trip. ¹

"Great lodge at a remote, poorly accessible location."

7.0

The lodge itself is great - friendly, accommodating and hospitable staff. There is a heated pool on the property as well. Restaurant has selective but delicious options for food. Our large group had breakfast and dinner on both days. Breakfast is ala carte and it helps to place the order in advance. Service was very personable. The servers learned the names of the guests and brought food accordingly. It was a unique experience to have breakfast so close to beautiful birds, just hanging out near the restaurant, having their own breakfast! We even saw a sloth relaxing on a nearby tree. You feel like you're really in middle of nature.

Water pressure was pretty bad and some people in our group had to shower with cold/tepid water. Beds were not very comfortable and the thin blankets were not warm enough once we had the a/c going. Had to remember to always keep the door closed otherwise mosquitoes and (many) centipedes would get in. Door locks should be upgraded or repaired. It took multiple tries just to lock our rooms. I think the memorable thing about this lodge is how bad the inbound roads are. After 45 minutes of bumpy, dirt road full of potholes, we just wanted to get to the main road and crack our backs. Costa Rica tourism should really invest in the infrastructure around this region because this lodge has so much potential to be more popular.

"Interesting Wildlife"

7.0

Interesting area. Nice gardener who pointed out a sloth.

A view would have been fine. Breakfast mediocre. At least 12 worms crept in under the not-very-fitting front door…

"Caño Negro is a fairly remote part of Costa Rica. It’s a birders’ paradise. Easy access to a river tour featuring birds"

9.0

Beautiful property. Rooms nice and comfortable. The staff couldn’t have been nicer and more accommodating. Enjoyed the swimming pool and the bird feeder that encouraged many birds to stop by, giving us a close look. The monkey families in the trees were fun to watch.

"Very pleasant, friendly staff, fab pool!"

8.0

Very nice swimming pool, just what’s needed to cool off from the heat.

No wifi apart from the main building; given that the whole point of coming to this area is for a tour on the river, it should be more seamless to book a trip - we got one in the end, though they threatened that we would have to pay ‘extra’. We didn’t, in the end, pay extra, but the whole process seemed harder than it should have been.
