    Just keep in mind that the road from here to San José is very steep and can be tricky with mist and rain

    Great forest environment with a lot of wildlife. Food was good and the staff was very helpful is helping us to find the animals we wanted to see

    We booked this one only because there isn’t any midrange accommodations in that area. It is not a area tourists frequent so it is really the only choice. The room rate is quite high for what we got also when compared to same type of accommodations in other areas, but it’s the only choice for this area.

    Beautiful landscape and quiet room. Breakfast is simple traditional Costa Rican style but delicious. Dinner is pricy but quite tasty. Ample hot water with good pressure for shower. No heater but not really that cold in room with more than enough blankets. The stuffs are so friendly and helpful. Great humming bird watching and trails behind rooms for self-guided walk but not well-maintained.

    It was a beautiful property with many trails to walk on. The birds, in particular, the hummingbirds were incredible. Everything was very clean and well maintained. Mario was a great host and took great care of us.

    THE place to see hummingbirds!

    Really struggling to find something here to be honest, the place could be signposted a bit better along the road I guess, that would have been reassuring during the drive on the very steep, winding road that led us there in the fog. We even drove past it the first time as the gate was closed when we arrived (although to be fair there is a big sign at the actual entrance gate, it just didn't look like an entrance to a lodge to us, but that was our mistake and we were greeted as soon as we came up to the gate).

    We had the most amazing stay and the staff (thank you Mario in particular!) couldn't have been more accommodating of our photography needs! The place is teeming with wildlife which was the reason for our stay: hundreds of hummingbirds around the feeders along with many other spacial sightings in and around the lodge including a quetzal exceeded our expectations by far! Our room was very (very!) spacious with the most comfortable bed we've had during our time in Costa Rica (it wasn't "extra firm" like most others...)

    It is not easy to get to the place, for Costa Rica has a difficult terrain, and Bosques de Paz is right in the middle of a forrest.

    Excellent place. Beautiful sight and the personal and owners are very kind and helpful.

    A wonderful hidden gem of a non-profit wildlife preservation that also happens to be a hotel. Very peaceful, with hummingbirds, agouti and mapache on the property. Wonderful, caring staff and great cooking. Preservation orchid garden, lots of trails, waterfalls and farms at and near the property.

    There is nothing but nature. If weather conditions are not good you cannot do anything. Internet is very poor. You cannot drink a soft drink, there are no snacks, nothing nearby. It was very cold in the room. 17 degrees celsius. Very boring. Management very unflexible.

    It is very quiet. You drive 14 K out of Sarchi. Its about 2 hours from Arenal. The area in agricultural. the farms are beautiful. The Road is paved. Mario is the host and will let you hold a humming bird feeder so the birds will land on your finger. There is a hike to 3 Marias and the Fatima water fall. There are massive amounts of wild life. If you love nature and solitude its awesome. Now they have WiFi. I’m the old days there was a phone in the main building. meals are served and we felt the good was good. They now serve beer.
