"Magical place, giving the full jungle experience. "

"Clean room, nice view."

"We expected much more from this place, but of the five lodges we visited, this was the worst. Regarding the accommodation, we realized that the door could be opened with just a slight push, without even turning the handle, meaning anyone could enter the room even when the handle was locked. Furthermore, there was no water pressure for the shower, and the water had to be heated by a small heater built into the showerhead, but this gadget clearly didn't allow for temperature control; the water was either freezing cold or scalding hot. The room contained only two beds and a bedside table; there was no desk or table with a chair to set up a laptop and edit photos at the end of the day. As for activities, the only real draw of this place is birdwatching or photography, as there's nothing else to do in the area. We would have expected all the perches to be stocked with fruit and the hummingbird feeders to be full, but only one of the many perches had food, and the hummingbird feeders were all empty and were never refilled during our visit. They seemed more interested in selling us expensive paid tours: king vultures $75/person, macro with snakes and frogs $50/person, hummingbirds $65/person, small birds $30/person, bats $65/person. There are trails on the property, but they are not suitable for regular hiking boots and are extremely muddy; rubber boots are absolutely necessary. Considering the price of the overnight stays, we would have expected a little more from this place."

"This was our 3rd stay at the Peacelodge. We love everything about it. The rooms, grounds, staff, nature and wildlife. "

"Staff were very helpful and friendly. The location is around 20 minutes from La Fortuna so car rental was needed. Beautiful secluded spot with a gorgeous terrace and small roof dipping pool/tub (villa cacao). Room had everything we needed and was very clean. We loved the terrace, complete with coffee maker and fridge under the breakfast bar. Breakfast was included and lovely. It was made fresh to order every morning in the main reception area. Tipico and pancakes were delicious. There were a few noisy trucks but nothing that would stop us staying again. We also took part in the chocolate tour with Nelson. He was excellent with our very inquisitive 5 and 8 year olds and answered all their questions (there were many). Waking up to feeling like you were in the middle of the jungle every morning and seeing fireflies dance at night from the seclusion of our terrace was a highlight for our family and will always be a fond memory of our Costa Rica adventure."

"We stayed in a shipping container! It wasn't a real room. It was cold. They provided us with 2 noisy space heaters that didn't heat enough. Sheets and blankets felt itchy. We couldn't sleep much. Staff was nice. Location and view were amazing. Breakfast was excellent. I don't recommend to stay there if you are hoping for a nice comfortable stay. "

"We could not be happier with our stay at the tree houses! We stayed for 3 nights. The staff was incredible. Coffee delivered every morning to our balcony so we could watch and listen to the animals, a great breakfast prepared every morning, and a night hike that we really enjoyed. The staff was incredibly helpful in booking excursions which were so fun. We took a day trip with Juan Carlos and saw so many things in a day that would have taken us 3 days otherwise. We 100% recommend to stay here. "

"The whole experience was amazing. The staff are very friendly and accommodating the room was beautiful and spacious the grounds were beautiful and the food was excellent! Bonus was the howler monkeys off my balcony and a sloth on the grounds"

"Stayed for two nights. Staff are very helpful and pleasant. The lodge is situated close to the river which is good for swimming and has it's own forest reserve. We did two very enjoyable guided walks on the reserve with local guides who were extremely knowledgeable. We stayed in the family room which was rather rustic but plenty big enough for a family of four. The main frustration was the cold shower which didn't get fixed despite reporting on the first day. Breakfast was good, dinner is an optional buffet and is not worth it. "
