Guest Reviews

• Wendy (10/5): - Un lugar hermoso, acogedor y rodeado de naturaleza. Espectacular
• Priscila (9/5): - El desayuno puede estar mejor
• Astrid (9/5): Sehr schöne Lodge - Wunderbare Lage, sehr schöner Garten. Sehr gute Küche, haben auch ein Sandwich ausserhalb Küchenzeiten bekommen. Ein wenig in die Jahre gekommen. Keine Möglichkeit ein Fenster mit Mückennetz zu öffnen.
• Cristhian Vinicio (10/5): - El lugar tiene una vistada increíble. La atención fue muy adecuada.
• Luis (9/5): - Lindas vistas
• Ericka (9/5): -
• Gabi (9/5): - Super Lage,, gutes Essen, nettes Personal, mittags freier Kaffee
• Maciej (6/5): -
• Nora (10/5): Sehenswerte Abwechslung von Vegetation und Klima (nachts wirds kalt). - Tolle Lage, toller Garten, warme Dusche, viele schöne Möglichkeiten, um mit tollem Blick zu sitzen - drinnen und draußen. Nettes Personal. Nicht schlimm, nur anders als erwartet: Es wurde uns freier Kaffee und Tee angekündigt. Im Zimmer gab es allerdings nur eine Kaffeemaschine, keinen Wasserkocher.
• Joanne (9/5): This is a beautiful peaceful place to stay. - It was a beautiful setting-the hotel was comfortable and clean. The staff were exceptionally helpful. We found that the wifi did not work well in our room.
• Alexander (10/5): Relax, confort y limpieza. - eL FRÍO, LA LIMPIEZA, EL CAFE, EL DESAYUNO.
• Annika (8/5): Tolles Personal und tolles Hotel - Eın sehr großes Zimmer mit separater Küche und Balkon :) Hatte meine Handtasche vergessen und wurde sofort auf allem Kanälen kontaktiert - top!
• Ulrika (10/5): Comfortable hotel with lovelyrooms and a nice pool area. Located in the middle of town. - Great location, beautiful room and a very nice pool area.
• Gustav (9/5): kühle Nacht und gutes Essen - sehr großzügig, freundliches Personal Zufahrtsweg 300m dringen ausbesserungsbedürftig
• MARIA TERESA (10/5): - Es un sitio especial, muy tranquilo, con mucha variedad de pájaros que te alegran la estancia. Junto al volcán Turrialba y de camino hacia el Irazú, nos vino muy bien como punto intermedio viniendo de Cahuita hacia el aeropuerto al día siguiente. El personal muy agradable y el desayuno fenomenal. La zona en general merece la pena de verdad. Y la habitación limpia, cómoda y con unas vistas espectaculares. Nada destacable
• Maria (9/5): Beautiful location and setting - Beautiful property with lots of gardens and many birds. The interior is also really pretty, and the views. The staff were really nice. We really enjoyed our stay. The bed linens were thin and plastic-y, and the mattresses weren't that comfortable. No heating - it is cold at night in the mountains so expect that the temperature in the room to be pretty much like outside, same in the restaurant. The breakfast buffet was not great as other commenters point out. However the location, gardens, and views made up for these inconveniences.
• Arienne (10/5): Repetiriamos, sencillo hotel pero bonito. L - Los jardines del hotel, atención del personal No nos dijeron que el precio de la cena no incluia los impuestos. Pero se disculparon y ofrecieron no cobrarnos ese extra.
• Birgit Echtler (10/5): - Tolle Anlage mit vielen Vögeln drumherum. Gutes Frühstück, tolles Zimmer und sehr freundliches Personal.
• Wolfgang (7/5): Empfehlenswert. - Nettes und ruhig gelegenes Anwesen mit schöner Aussicht hinab ins Tal. Freundlicher Besitzer.
• Manuel (10/5): -
• Ilona (10/5): -
• Veronica (10/5): -
• Angela (9/5): Sehr aufmerksames Personal -
• Nora (10/5): - L’accueil très sympathique, le gérant a fait l’effort de nous parler en français. Endroit très cosy avec un petit feu de cheminée. Chambre spacieuse et très propre.
• Christoph (9/5): - Beautiful view!
• Nicole (10/5): -
• Jennifer (3/5): - La vue - lit très inconfortable - accès à l hôtel - peu de flexibilité quant aux repas pris à l hôtel ( choix à l avance et uniquement trois plats à disposition) - chambres pas prêtes
• Mercedes (10/5): Excelente opcion entre el Caribe y San Jose - La ubicación, la tranquilidad, el clima fresco y la vista. Es un lugar ideal para alguien que busca un destino intermedio entre el Caribe y San Jose.
• Carlar Gale (9/5): A beautiful location to stay. -
• Richard (8/5): Very good -
• Mark (9/5): Superb - Great lodge with very friendly staff. Excellent and good value 3 course evening meal. The buffet breakfast was not great. Food luke warm and limited choice. There were 2 large tour groups before us so not sure whether that was the cause. But it was a disappointment after the excellent meal the night before.
• Diane (10/5): Fantastic! Do not hesitate! - We were very positively surprised! To start, the view from our room was beautiful (make sure you wake up for sunset!)! Spacious and clean room in a peaceful area (we were woken up only by the swallows). Big kuddo for the shower, the best pressure and "termales" feeling we had in the country! Convenient restaurant on site, with excellent food including vegetarian options. The garden was gorgeous. We spent a bit of time admiring the nearby wildlife it attracted. We also enjoyed the accessible small trails around. Helpful staff and particularly friendly and accommodating owners. Not a negative point for the place itself, but be ready to face some narrow and steep roads in the area. We recommend travel while there is light.
• Andrea (8/5): Location and room were great as were the staff. Just skip the food and have keifer and granola for breakfast - Wonderful suite - great view of the valley from the room. Comfortable bed. Room a bit cold but when asked for a smaller heater it was fine. Food was pretty bland and not much variety.
• Diego (9/5): Nice stay - The scenery around it is breathtaking. There is no noise insulation and people in the early morning are too noisy.
• Joseph (10/5): Exceptional -
• Andrew (10/5): Awesome location! - Extremely friendly and helpful staff... true Pura Vida! Hmmm... the rain... lol
• Nickoles (8/5): Very good - Views, fresh air, beautiful lodge. Great breakfast In a downstairs unit, every chair movement above reverberates below loudly.
• Ausonio (9/5): Superb - Beautiful view. Room as described Some more choice of cookies and pastries at brekfast would be welcomed
• David (6/5): Pleasant - The grounds and scenery were absolutely beautiful. The building itself was also very unique. The beds were extremely firm and we did not sleep well. The hot water was limited and we could not all shower (family of 4).
• Minor (10/5): Put it on your bucket lust. - Wonderful That I could not stay longer.
• Phillip (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mary (10/5): We had a wonderful relaxing time. - It was an incredible place with beautiful gardens and fabulous views.
• Chris (9/5): Superb -
• Julián (9/5): Superb - Hermosa casa de campo a solo 10 min de Santa Cruz de Turrialba. Preciosa vista, estilo rústico y acogedor, personal amable. Perfecto para escaparse un fin de semana.
• Rautio (9/5): Perfect for us - Super good breakfast Info about the trails nearby
• Alan (10/5): Exceptional -
• Luis (10/5): Exceptional -
• Helko (10/5): Exceptional - Thanks a lot, you saved us! After a bad experience with another hotel we booked just before arriving late in the evening, there was no other guests in the lodge so the place was actually closed. But within a few min the owner arrived and gave us a great room (spacious, clean with a beautiful view over the mountains the next morning) and an improvised dinner made by the host himself! The breakfast has been also excellent (including eggs, fruit, local cheese, cake, ...) nothing
• Sonja (9/5): Superb - A gorgeous setting, comfortable rooms, good food
• Bahar (10/5): Gorgeous place - Beautiful grounds and fantastic views of the mountains. The rooms are cozy. The staff is super nice and accommodating. On one of the mornings we had to leave very early so they gave us our breakfast to-go the night before. Small issue, I didn't like the polyester-looking bed covers, I prefer the kind that can be washed every time.
• Beatriz (9/5): Superb - the location with excellent views of the volcano, the walking trails on the property, the best breakfast of the whole trip, and above all, the friendly staff and owners. we were treated with true hospitality.
• Mária (10/5): I will be happy to come back 😉 - The amazing place, perfectly clean, usefull and beautiful views 👌
• Nicolay (9/5): Superb - Really quiet place with a fantastic view in both directions if the weather allows it. The room was large and comfortable, the big garden around the lodge was beautiful, and we felt welcomed here.
• Alexander (10/5): hermoso lugar y jardines - jardines no tv
• Susan (10/5): Exceptional - beautiful view, great staff, great location. great food, beautiful lobby, nice rooms.
• Gerald (7/5): Good - The grounds, the breakfast, the views, the staff. All good. Our bathroom, room 22, had a bad smell coming from the toilet. Wanted to pay in colonnes but had to pay with visa, adding to the bill.
• Christopher (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jose (10/5): Cosy small hotel with beautiful gardens and surroundings - Helpful and very friendly staff! Beautiful garden and surroundings. Ample rooms with big windows and relaxing views. The hotel entrance (circa 200m) is not paved. A high car is recommended.
• Ilia (8/5): Nice 20 min hike to the river on a maintained trail. Nice sitting area with a view. Great shower. - The dinner was just Ok.
• Benjamin (8/5): lovely place but disappointing food - the hotel is very nice and has a great private trail the food: breakfast was not great dinner was fancy but not really tasty
• Laura (10/5): Exceptional -
• Václav (10/5): Exceptional - Receptionist Lisa is the most helpful person on the planet ;- ) There is not a single thing which could be improved ;)
• Lynn (9/5): Overall, excellent. Would stay there again absolutely. - Location was on a mountainside, mostly misty but beautiful with blooming landscaping. The breakfast was excellent! We also enjoyed dinner there, which was quite good also. the hot water was not consistent. Not a deal breaker, but a bit uncomfortable at times. One of the beds was less comfortable than average.
• David (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sue (7/5): Good -
