Guest Reviews
- Robert (9/5): -
- Julie (10/5): - Amazing location. Quiet and lovely. Host was available for any questions. Wonderful view for relaxing. Would definitely recommend!!!
- Ignacio (10/5): Genial - La ubicación y entorno y la atención de Pablo La único a modo de mejora sería para mí las almohadas y el tema de parquing en el alojamiento que es un poco complicado maniobrar, pero por decir algo
- Sylvie (9/5): -
- Liz (10/5): Excellent Views - Excellent views from our bed of the ocean and beach was so close, hearing the waves crashing in from your bed is special. Monkeys, Macaws, Parrots, and sloth all were a joy to watch from this quaint 4 room hotel hanging over the edge of lush forest. We thoroughly enjoyed the views from our balcony and pool of the famous "Whales Tale". Delicious Breakfast was served at the time of your convenience. Laundry service, king bed, clean room with kitchen, A/C and hot water. The owner is very attentive to your needs and responds immediately. The owner also owns a 5 star restaurant "La Uvita Perdida" off site a short drive away- with Excellent views of the whale tale, with amazing sunset views, and the best food and service, don't pass on this experience. There is also an Italian restaurant immediately next door-walking distance from the hotel is excellent. Loved all.
- Robert (10/5): Het échte Costa Rica zien en voelen; wij vonden dit echt de totale beleving! - Het echte jungle-gevoel; we hebben vanaf ons balkon de nodige apen en andere dieren kunnen bewonderen. Verder een uitstekend ontbijt, mooie centrale ligging en vriendelijke eigenaar én personeel. Niks
- MARGOT (10/5): Un séjour hors du temps - Un Lodge sublime perché au beau milieu de la forêt
- Markus (10/5): -
- Peggy (9/5): Wunderschöne Anlage mit wenigen kleine Bungalows - Schöne Familiäre Unterkunft. Tolle Aussicht. Von der Terrasse konnten wir Tukane, Aras, Lizzards und Affen beobachten. Wir haben von hier eine tolle Schnorcheltour unternommen. Dort konnten wir nicht nur Fische sehen, sondern auch Schildkröten und Haie. Die Fahrt auf den Berg ist etwas mühsam.
- Lisa (10/5): - Der Ausblick und die Einrichtung des Zimmers ist außergewöhnlich. Wir konnten etliche Tiere (Tukan, Faultier, Affen) direkt vom Zimmer beobachten. Auch die Gastgeber sind sehr freundlich, so dass uns der Abschied sehr schwer fiel.
- Christian (9/5): Charmant ! Super accueil ! - On a adoré cette petite "pension". Quatre chambres, pas grandes, mais au final beaucoup de services disponibles dans les espaces communs. La vue est superbe, les animaux sont là (singes, paresseux, oiseaux) juste à côté de vous !
Super accueil et excellent petit déjeuner !
- Frederic (10/5): - tout rien
- Marc Van Roy (9/5): -
- Marius (10/5): -
- Alberto (9/5): HABITAICONES BUENAS - Las habitaciones estás bien. Tiene una mini piscina con unas vistas al mar increíbles. Volvería sin duda.
- Bruno (10/5): Kann ich wärmstens empfehlen - Sehr tolle Unterkunft inmitten des Dschungels und grandioser Aussicht. Vor unserer Nase kletterten die Affen herum. Früh morgens auch noch einen Ocelot gesehen. Alles ok
- Andrea (10/5): Perle in den Hügeln von Uvita, geschmackvoll und zum Wohlfühlen - Eine Perle in den Hügeln von Uvita mit geschmackvollen wie gemütlichen Zimmern und Ambiente. Der Blick vom Pool und der Terrasse in die Natur und auf den Pazifik ist bezaubernd. Pablo und sein Team sind absolut hilfsbereit und freundlich. Frühstück ist top! Genialer Ausgangspunkt für die wunderschönen Aktivitäten in der Umgebung.
- Clemens (10/5): Einfach unglaublich schönes kleine Anlage mit Liebe zum Detail - Wir hatten das Deluxe Zimmer mit Blick auf Meer und Regenwald und das war einfach UNGLAUBLICH schön! ❤️ Der Besitzer ist auch unglaublich freundlich. Bestes Hotel unserer Tour!
- Solène (10/5): Plus qu’un séjour, une expérience incroyable en tout point! -
- Annette (9/5): - Sehr netter Aufenthalt in der kleinen Lodge mit sehr persönlicher Betreuung. Alles sehr unkompliziert. Toller kleiner Infintypool zum Entspannen!
- Jean Louis (10/5): Super séjour - La vue sur l'océan depuis les parties communes. La présence d'animaux sauvages visibles depuis la terrasse. La proximité d'un bon restaurant même s'il ne fait pas parti de l'hôtel. La piscine Rien
- Marie-noelle (9/5): Magnifique vue 🤩 - Un accueil chaleureux,une superbe vue 🤩 bon emplacement sur les hauteurs d’uvita On entend un peu les camions de la route en contrebas et le prix est un peu élevé mais je ne regrette absolument pas car la vue et l’accueil étaient top
- Gamze (10/5): Perfekt! - Traumhafte Lage, toller und super netter Gastgeber, wunderschöne Anlage, schöne, saubere Zimmer. Der Gemeinschaftsbereich lädt zum Verweilen ein. La Uvita Perdida macht den Aufenthalt in Uvita nochmals deutlich schöner.
Mit einem 4x4 lässt sich der Weg zur Unterkunft sehr gut bewältigen. Vorher erhält man eine genaue Anleitung und Wegbeschreibung mit Fotos zur Unterkunft. Alles war super !
- Markus (10/5): - Pablo is a very nice Host. Wonderful Sunset
- Victoria (10/5): Super endroit pour se reposer ! - Super établissement ! La chambre était très confortable et la vue est à couper le souffle.
Je recommande !
- CHRISTINE (7/5): Une maison dans les arbres dans la jungle mais attention à la route d’accès - Beaucoup de charme dans la construction comme une maison dans les arbres, vue sur l’océan magnifique , accueil chaleureux de Pablo qui nous a tout expliqué. Le petit déjeuner très bon. La piscine pour se rafraîchir après une journée de randonnée ou la sortie en mer pour voir les baleines et les dauphins. La route d’accès, une piste caillouteuse, complètement défoncée et dangereuse, il nous était impossible de sortir le soir par crainte de la route de nuit sans aucun éclairage. Seule possibilité de restauration le restaurant italien à côté accessible à pied, très bon par ailleurs.
- Kingfisher (10/5): - We really enjoyed our stay here. The ocean views from the common area with swings was absolutely beautiful and relaxing. The rooms are very clean with a small balcony for privacy.
We also spotted a sloth and monkeys in the surrounding forest.
The beach is only a short distance away. Getting here requires a 4x4 and Pablo does give instructions about the turning but it can be easily missed so it would be good to have for a sign at the turning.
- Margit (10/5): Alles prima - Abgeschiedene und ruhige Unterkunft am Hügel. Ein Mietwagen ist ein must have! Wir wurden sehr freundlich vom Unterkunftgeber empfangen. Schöne Terrasse, von der man den Ausblick in den Dschungel und das Meer genießen kann.
1 Gläschen Wein pro Tag ging aufs Haus - hat uns sehr gefallen! Der Weg zur Unterkunft ist abenteuerlich. Offenbar wird der Weg demnächst saniert.
- Astrid (10/5): -
- Muriel (10/5): - Ce lieu est exceptionnel, serein,cosy, un accueil chaleureux et le plus un verre de vin excellent offert.Le choix des petits déjeuner est très appréciable. Une vue magnifique sur l’océan.
- Finn (10/5): - Wunderschöne Unterkunft mit traumhafter Aussicht. Sehr netter Gastgeber und leckeres Frühstück. Die Zufahrt ist ein bisschen holprig, aber halb so wild.
- Sarah (10/5): Excellent property in a fantastic location with a personal touch. - The location and view were amazing. Pablo, the host, was extremely helpful, beach towels provided and the meals in the sister restaurant were fantastic with a great sunset view. With ample seating areas and a small infinity pool, the property had a very relaxed feel, even offering a free drink in the evening as you watched the sunset. We would love to go back and would recommend it to everyone. The access road is fairly demanding but with careful driving, even a two wheel drive car can get to the property although this was in the dry season.
- Yvette (10/5): Increíble - Todo, Pablo es un chico encantador. El lugar es mágico.
- Sabrina (9/5): Smukke solnedgange! - Udsigten herfra er smuk og vi nød de smukke solnedgange! Pablo er en fantastisk og vært og så sød og hjælpsom. Vi så både toucaner, brøleaber og en sloth under vores ophold her. Vi kommer meget gerne igen! Den eneste ulempe er vejen dertil er lidt udfordrende grundet grusvejen.
- STUART (10/5): Perfect base to explore the Uvita area. - Amazing location set on the hillside over the Ocean. Rooms are clean, well equipped with A/Cs . There are nice communal areas and a super dip pool to watch the sunsets with a glass of wine. We had no car, but were put in touch with a super driver who ferried us around at very reasonable rates. We explored local waterfalls and had an amazing time whale watching. Uvita has a lovely vibe. There is a super Italian restaurant next door where we ate twice.
- Iris (10/5): - La Uvita Perdida war ein absolutes Highlight auf unserer Tour. Allein für den atemberaubenden Sonnenuntergang hat sich der Aufenthalt dort gelohnt. Den vorherigen Bewertungen zur Anfahrt können wir zustimmen: sie ist tatsächlich stellenweise prekär. Mit einem 4x4-Fahrzeug jedoch zu bewältigen.
- sandra (10/5): -
- Rania (9/5): Would definitely recommend this property to friends and family! - Really friendly host who shared lots of tips on activities in the neighbourhood, stunning view, delicious breakfast and a clean room. Nothing ;)
- Marina (10/5): Recomendable 100% - Todo, está genial. Relax 100% y trato inmejorable Tienes que llevar un coche un poquito alto porque el camino es un poco difícil
- Rosamaria (10/5): -
- Daniela (10/5): A wonderful stay during our trip through Costa Rica - Our stay at Pablo’s place was just wonderful. We had such a good time enjoying and sleeping completely in the nature, while being in the center of Uvita within a couple of minutes. Getting waken up by the monkeys in the morning as they’re running over the roof is a truly lifetime experience. Breakfast ist delicious and always freshly prepared. There’s also a shared kitchen and common area, where you can enjoy the sunset and have a good glass of wine. Everything is clean and some many small details, really well thought through.
All in all, we would definitely recommend this place!!
Concerning the road: when we were there it was raining (heavily) every day and we didn’t have a 4x4, but it was still completely fine. Just take it slow & easy and it works smoothly :) Nothing :)
- José (9/5): Excelente - El trato amable. Nada
- Marion (10/5): Nous avons passé un séjour idyllique grâce a cet établissement. - L’établissement est parfait, tant la localisation que le lieu en lui même. Le petit déjeuner était très bon et varié, le ménage fait tous les jours. Nous avions une chambre avec vue sur l’océan qui nous a fait réserver deux nuits de plus. Tout était parfait.
- Marta (10/5): Un lugar súper especial en Uvita - El alojamiento es increíble. Dormir con vistas al bosque y desayunar o pasar un rato agradable tomando algo con vistas al mar es lo mejor. La subida en coche es complicada, pero si quieres las vistas, hay que subir. Con 4x4 se puede y lo merece ☺️
- Ines (10/5): Fabuloso, inolvidable! - Nos gustó todo! está ubicado en un lugar magnífico, con unas vistas increíbles que nos quedarán para siempre, Pablo y su padre mantienen la esencia de la Pura Vida en el alojamiento, tienen detalles como invitar a café, bebida… uno se siente en casa, maravillosa estancia, gracias por hacer de la Uvita Perdida un lugar tan especial! nada
- Bert (9/5): Mitten im Regenwald - Sehr netter Gastgeber, liebevoll eingerichtet, schöner kleiner Pool mit Blick auf den Ozean
- Silvia (9/5): Un sitio mágico! - Todo genial! Las vistas muy bonitas. Te entra una copa de vino al dia. La habitación muy moderna, confortable, limpia y acogedora, con un balconcito precioso.
Habiamos leído que se necesitaba un 4x4 indispensable para acceder, fuimos en un Suzuki Jimmy sin activar la tracción, no nos pareció tan dificil el acceso la verdad. La ducha. Salia ardiendo o fría, y toda el agua se dirigía fuera de la ducha y acababa mojando todo el suelo del baño. Recomiendo cambiar el cabezal.
- Juliette Herbelin (10/5): WOW! - Just... wow! Mega-comfy bed in a super nice room with a stunning view into nature. We saw monkeys on our first night and heard them galopping around on the roof on our second night! Beautiful modern stylish bathroom. Space to stack and organise your stuff, A/C and fan to recover from the humid heat. Very friendly owner who makes you feel at ease: thank you for your welcoming smile, your contagious chill, the love and passionnate vibe you put into this place and your creativity! Wonderful and arranging staff. Delish breakfast. The indications to find the hotel were very clear so we found it without any issues. You just have to drive slowly to avoid the huge potholes in the unpaved section, but even with our low-rise car we didn't have any problems.
Don't even hesitate: that's your place to book in the region! Beware: you will be sad to leave!
- Rodrigo (10/5): -
- Pepe82 (10/5): Spero di tornarci un giorno! - Posizione, cura da parte dell'host nei conforti di chi soggiorna (sono solo 4 camere!), vista panoramica, aperitivo di benvenuto, camere in mezzo alla natura con vista sulla foresta Tutto perfetto, solo occorre avere un 4×4 per arrivare!
- Joanna Brownsworth. (10/5): Paradise on earth. - I really loved the peace and tranquility of the lodge built overlooking the Pacific Ocean surrounded by dense forest, occupied by local howler monkeys and white faced capuchin, sloth and toucan. You will need to drive a 4×4 or car with exceptional grip to access the place. The rooms are exceptionally clean, spacious and inviting. There are no curtains on the window so only the monkeys and toucans can see you!
Pablo is a fabulous host with such interesting knowledge of the area. He is attentive and helpful. The breakfast is delicious especially the different fruits which you are given each day, plus a choice of 3 options in addition.
The view is perfect overlooking the ocean and is where you look out from as you eat your breakfast.
The WiFi is good and there's always hot running water.
There's a great Italian restaurant next door which has lovely staff and serves house made pasta and amazing desserts.
I would definitely stay again here.
Pablo also owns a beautiful restaurant, some way from La Perdida. It's stunning and overlooks the Whale Tail, where 2 beaches meet at low tide, creating the appearance of a whale's tail! Both food and staff are great. It's really worth a try. You really have to love nature to stay here as it's a bit out of the way for some.
I think it's really worth the effort as it's so unique.
- Jasmin (10/5): -
- Guest (10/5): -
- florent (10/5): I stayed for 3 nights at the end of my trip to Costa Rica. This place was magical & the reasons why are infinte ;) i - Family owned, authenticity & friendliness, immersed in nature & wildlife, perched in the jungle. Nothing
- Julien (10/5): Beautiful location, great wine and good vibes - Beautiful location, great wine and good vibes
- Christopher (10/5): Amazing staff, beautiful location amongst nature - Beautiful place close to the sea and right among nature. Pablo was incredibly helpful both before and during the trip Best to have your own transportation
- Greg (9/5): Pablo is a charming host who will do everything to make your stay enjoyable and memorable. We would recommend his place - Amazing location with lots of wildlife and stunning views over the sea from the communal seating area. Make sure you have a 4x4 vehicle otherwise you’ll be risking your deposit on the hire car! The access road is extremely rutted and rocky.
- Gthuery (8/5): Very good - We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this charming hotel nestled in the mountains near Uvita, offering stunning sea views. The room was comfortable and had everything we needed for our visit. We also appreciated the inviting shared spaces, which made it easy to relax and connect with other guests. Pablo was exceptionally helpful and accommodating both before our arrival and throughout our stay. The included breakfast was a delicious start to each day. The drive to the hotel is challenging, and a 4WD vehicle is essential to reach the property safely. I wouldn’t recommend staying here without your own car, as the hotel is quite far from Uvita and walking would not be safe. The shower took some time to heat up, and the bed was not very comfortable.
- Louis (10/5): Home like atmosphere with fantastic view. -
- Stanford (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sam (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tom (9/5): Highly recommended stay in Uvita - Great location with lots of wildlife on your doorstep. We had a troop of capuchins pass our bedroom every morning. The staff are very helpful and friendly. The driveway is quite challenging. Take it steady.
- Mahendra (10/5): Unique, pleasant lodge with fantastic views. - Location was fantastic with panoramic views over forest and ocean from our room and the common areas. Excellent host who was readily accessible and very helpful. Quiet, boutique place to stay, we spent 4 nights here. Most hillside hotels around Uvita have steep and partially unpaved roads. This place is no exception. Definitely need vehicle with high clearance and 4x4 would also help.
- Nicholas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jordan (10/5): Pablo is the man - The view is incredible and Pablo is a fantastic host. Right in the rainforest, saw just as much wildlife off our balcony than we did in the national park. Phenomenal stay, don't think twice, book your stay at la perdida. Nothing to not like, one of the best places I've ever booked.
- Sheeva (10/5): Our favorite stay, by far. - Our favorite stay in Costa Rica be far. It’s more than just the view — it’s the details. The sunset drinks, the lighting in and around the room, the cleanliness, the kindess. We even saw macaws, a sloth, frogs, iguanas, and white face monkeys — all on the property. I won’t forget these days :)
- Yoel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Colinda (10/5): Perfect!! - What a very nice and beautifull place to stay. The room was not so spacious but really, really nice. Everything you need, was there.
The viewings from all over this place are so beautifull!!! We enjoyed the pool, the nice beatfast and Pablo was so friendly!!
- Daria (10/5): Secret paradise - This place is like a secret paradise. A bit hard to find but 100% worth the drive. We enjoyed quiet evenings with a glass of wine watching birds in the jungle and the view of the sea. When we were lucky, we could even see adorable monkeys from our room. We hope to come back and can very much recommend La Uvita Perdida.
- Makiko (10/5): Tranquil and magical place - Very special place! Tranquil Ambience and the gorgeous view.
The best Costa Rican style breakfast!
Well designed and clean room with beautiful bathroom and shower. Throughout the facility, everything was well organized and every little detail made the stay so pleasant. Shared fridge and kitchen sink was a nice bonus. We spent a lot of time in the common area to enjoy the view of the jungle and the ocean, was magical during the sunset. Surrounded by wild life such as Tucan, Macaw, Sloth, Monkey and more (we missed a sloth and monkeys but other guests saw them)
Pablo welcomed us warmly, was very helpful and accommodating! As many mentioned, the dirt road leading to the place looked a bit challenging at first. Pablo provided us a very good direction so we drove slowly and it was fine.
- David (10/5): Exceptional - Wonderful place! We had amazing view from the room where we even saw toucans every day. Pablo is a nice host who thinks of small things which makes it very welcoming and nice. Also next to a really good itilian restaurant if you dont want do drive to dinner.
- Daniella (10/5): Exceptional - A hidden gem in the jungle. Absolutely fantastic. Pablo was an amazing host. It’s definitely the place to stay when Uvita. Don’t miss out on La Uvita Perdida experience.
Highly recommend staying here. We didn’t rent a 4WD, however the road it totally drivable if you take it slow and easy.
- Marc (10/5): Paradise… - Wonderful people… very nice place!
We’ve had an excellent stay there.
Highly recommended!
- Talayeh (10/5): Exceptional -
- Krystal (10/5): Exceptional - Clean, really nice aesthetic. Pablo was a great host and very chilled out and informative. We loved our stay
- Marika (10/5): Amazing place, the best in Costa Rica - Amazing place with fantastic view!! The best place of all we stayed at in costa rica. We loved everything with this place. Our room was so sweet with a little balkony to the rain forest. There is a very nice little pool. Drinks you can buy, and you get one for free each day. Very nice. Also very good breakfast. A lot of cozy places to sit and relax and enjoy the ocean view or all the animals in the forest. I could stay here forever:). Pablo was a very nice and helpful host.
I was a little worried about the road up to the place because of some reviews and we didn't have a 4x4 car. It was really not a problem. We just took it very slow. It didn't rain though.
- Nicky (10/5): Trabquil location, lovely accommodation. - Lovely peaceful rooms set in the rainforest. Beautiful location and stunning views over the coastline.
Lots of wildlife from our bedroom balcony.
The owner, Pablo, was very helpful throughout our stay. Nothing was too much trouble
- Mike (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lara (10/5): Perfect small hotel feeling like a bit of a tree house in the best sort of way! - Beautiful location. Amazing views. Delicious breakfast and lovely host. We loved it all! No negatives.
- Ian (10/5): Amazing experience in an outstanding setting - This place is amazing and Pablo a superb host. The access road is a little tricky but take it slowly and you will be fine. We didn’t have a 4x4 and it had rained heavily all night - it really wasn’t a problem. Our room was spotless with a balcony view over the forest. The property has a nice plunge pool with sea views. There is a large terrace area with swing seats which also affords sea and forest views. Each night we had a complimentary drink on the terrace whilst chatting to other guests watching the sunset. The property really is a true taste of Costa Rican hospitality and you will be glad you booked here. Next door is a superb restaurant called Gusto. It gets busy so our advice is book in advance. Definitely recommend if staying in the Uvita area. The local beach Hermosa is wonderful, especially if you like a bit of surfing, and Palbo organised a whale watching trip where we got to see 2 females and a 10 day old calf plus lots of dolphins. There are so many nice touches it’s impossible to list them all so my advice is just book and find out for yourself.
- Marco (10/5): Incredible views! - Pablo was very accommodating. The views were stunning. there wasn’t anything I didn’t like the only thing I could say would have made this 10+ would’ve been a hot shower.
- Kelly (10/5): FANTASTICO!!! - I’ve been an international tour guide for ten years. This is in my top 5. What an absolute gem!!! Pablo the owner was a wealth of assistance with reservations and information.
- Clare (10/5): Fantastic hotel with stunning views and sunsets - Beautiful property in the middle of the jungle with stunning views and excellent staff. Sunsets were amazing! 100% recommend Road to property isn’t the easiest to drive along
- Dominique (10/5): Fantastic place in the jungle - Amazing little hotel, perched on a hill surrounded by jungle - view from our room was beautiful. Had a troupe of monkeys playing around our balcony and a toucan who kept visiting the tree directly in front of our balcony. Absolutely nothing!
- Pippa (10/5): Paradise! - La Uvita Perdida is an absolute gem - I can’t rate it highly enough. From the serenely peaceful room with wonderful jungle views to the sun trap swimming pool, the plentiful breakfasts to the very welcome free glass of wine or beer, we had everything we could possibly have needed. Pablo was a kind host and helped to organise very reliable taxis for us during our stay. I’m already dreaming of returning! Nothing, it was perfect!
- Jan (10/5): Unique small lodge with beautiful jungle and sea views. Exceptional host. - Unique small lodge with beautiful jungle and sea views. Exceptional welcome from the host with all information and extra assistance when needed. Nice little touches: complimentary sunset drink; candles by the room door; delicious breakfast; swing chairs on the terrace and a classy plunge pool.
- Naomi (10/5): Beautiful lodges in a great location - We loved staying at this lovely hideaway. The lodges are located in a gorgeous setting in the jungle and you have beautiful views over the canopy and sea. We saw loads of toucans from the balcony. The rooms are great, again with great views and super clean and comfortable. The pool and chill out areas were great to relax in the afternoon. Pablo was a great host, and made sure we were looked after and gave great recommendations. Nothing!
- Justina (10/5): Exceptional - The location and view was beautiful. It was a unique hotel, peaceful, cosy, romantic and so relaxing. The host was attentive, helpful and fun to be in his company, a lovely young man. Breakfast was lovely and tasty. Bed was comfy. An amazing experience. We didn't have transport so had to rely on taxis as it is a difficult drive up to the hotel from the road. I knew this before I booked so expected this to happen so carnt complain, just think it's something you should know before booking.
- Antonia (10/5): Exceptional - The views from the hotel are excellent. There is lots of wildlife around. The rooms are very comfortable. Pablo, the owner is very friendly and can give lots of good advice about the area. You will need 4 wheel drive to get there, the last stretch of road is rough. Payment is in cash only.
- Cherrie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Muriel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kristina (10/5): Exceptional - We loved the location, perched above the forest with fantastic views over the Pacific. Pablo, our host, was very welcoming and made good suggestions about where to swim. Liked everything! The steep access road was a bit scary the first time - you definitely need a 4x4.
- Neslihan (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was perfect! Amazing breakfast, very peaceful environment and unbelievably beautiful nature. I only advice to reach to the hotel daytime because the road is little bit hard to reach when it is dark for the first day. Later you will get used to it.
- Wolla (10/5): Amazing - This is a hidden gem with so many positive elements, so it is hard to mention everything. For starters, the host was responsible, friendly and very service minded taking good care of the guests. The room was amazing, windows and balcony facing the Jungle outside. Common areas very cozy and clean. Small pool but fantastic view of the forest and the Pacific. Breakfast excellent and you can buy beverages from the fridge.
A small warning though, this place might not suit everyone. Access is through a very bumpy dirt road, so you need a car with ground clearance and four wheel drive. The host is focused on wildlife, so lighting is kept low at night. My room had no curtains, so there was daylight at dawn. And although there is a restaurant close by, you have to drive to get to shops etc.
But none of this bothered me, on the contrary it just added to the tranquility and the feeling of being close to the amazing nature of Costa Rica.
Bonus points for seeing monkeys, tucans,hummingbirds and gekkos up close. I will visit again for sure. No complaints whatsoever
- Nicolle (10/5): I felt home - This property is like a piece of art that evokes a feeling of home and perfectly blends into nature. The simplicity and attention to details allows you to dream away and disconnect completely from the daily rushes. What I enjoyed the most is the diversity of views that you get depending on where you stand. From ocean views, to the lush jungle of colourful flowers…you get it all.
I would come back anytime as also Pablo contributes to this incredible atmosphere with his hospitality and care for his guests.
The cherry or may I say grape on top of an unforgettable trip! Nothing
- Cristina-maria (10/5): Exceptional - That place stole my heart from the moment I stepped in. The view is just stunning; you can observe so many animals from the jungle and listen to the beautiful sounds of nature day and night. The rooms are very comfortable with big windows, so you literally wake up with a jungle view. The breakfast is delicious, and a glass of wine on the terrace finishes your day perfectly. The staff is very friendly, and Pablo helps you out with everything you need. Thank you for that memorable stay.
- Eli (10/5): EXCELLENCE! - Quiet, peacefully, first hand interactions with the wild The way to get there (the road) is a challenge
- Marta (10/5): Relaxing, quiet and beautiful, - We loved the treatment from the host, he was very helpful and gave us a lot of info about things we could do around the area. The views from the place were incredible and more beautiful than what we expected.
- Hanna (10/5): Exceptional - Everything about this place was magnificent. The views the facility the breakfast definitely the people and the location. It's just a little difficult to get to minimum signage, and a major downhill path to the entrance. After a couple of times of coming and going you get used to it! As said. Only the road to it
- Agnes (10/5): Blissful getaway in nature - This was a sister getaway and we were looking for a secluded and quiet place in nature. We absolutely loved the location; it delivered on all aspects. We were surrounded by beautiful sights and sounds of the ocean and rainforest. The small size of this place ensured the intimate family-like atmosphere. We loved sitting in the swing chairs and looking at the ocean and the rainforest below. The small swimming pool was perfect after a hot day at the beach. There were several extra areas to sit and relax, as well as a kitchenette so that even with more guests you could still have your own space and privacy, which we really appreciated. Every morning there was a choice of three types of breakfast which was always beautifully presented, and when we bought extra fruits Pablo offered to cut those up for us and make juice. :-)
Pablo was an exceptional host. I read in past reviews how accommodating he was, but it wasn't until we stayed at the property when we fully experienced his home-like hospitality. Our already high expectations were definitely exceeded.
