"This is a true jungle resort! You will hear the roar of the monkeys, the sound of green parrots waking you up in the morning, the hundreds of red and some green frogs. The greenness of the jungle is surrounding you. The perch up the steep hills allow for great views below of the Atlantic coast. The cabins for couples and families allow extra privacy. The cabins are furnished with comfortable beddings, nice spacious washrooms, with a fan if needed. The resort is at least one km up curvy and very steep hills—so having a very strong 4x4 is a must. They have a restaurant here that’s best to order in advance. Food is delicious and lack variety. The staff is very nice and knowledgeable of the area. The resort shares the area with other properties so there is a locked gate that requires advanced planning when you come as the area where the gate is has no cellular access to call the staff to open the door when you arrive. We didn’t swim in the pool as it was cold in December but our kids enjoy the hottub when it was heated. The surrounding areas are great for exploring —we love the waterfalls, the lava beaches and sandy ones. There are many good restaurants within half an hour drive. There are memorable trips to the Jaguar Reserve (no jaguars), the Cacao tour and Jungle tours. We had a car and were able to enjoy the area thoroughly using this resort as a base for a week. Wonderful and will come back in future! "

"The rooms are beautiful, the wildlife abundant and the host, Jessica, was very helpful at answering questions and providing recommendations and she cooked a wonderful breakfast! I really loved the natural pool, and there were several great tours offered by a local guide, Rodolfo. The only comment I would make was my concern over a couple of domestic cats that were allowed outside on the property. I intercepted one of them hunting birds and lizards a few times. I understand it is somewhat socially acceptable in Costa Rica to let domestic cats roam, but from a North American perspective it's generally not acceptable as they are responsible for millions of bird deaths annually. If the cats are going to be outside I would hope they could get collars with bells on them to reduce wildlife mortality because otherwise everything about this resort is very ecologically focused. This one thing just didn't fit with that vibe. "
