Nothing, highly recommend this place.

This place is outstanding. The owners of the place are very nice and helpful. The food made by owner Yuri is amazing, we highly recommend to just eat all your meals here, we are spoiled for the rest of our trip in Costa Rica. The surroundings are breathtaking, and the tour by owner Estaban is very interesting, he knows a lot about the place, the animals, and all the trees he grew there. It's all very peaceful and a good start of our round-trip in this beautiful country.

Very beautiful place with super friendly hosts. It's a nice and peacefull place to relax. You can also do a nice small hike to the river. Everything was great, we wished we stayed longer than only 1 night. Thanks for the great time and hospitality 👍🏻

Wish I had booked for longer.

The owners are lovely generous people. Esteban knows about birds and took me to some nearby places that were alive with many varieties of small colourful birds such as tanagers. The large garden has been lovingly planted with a variety of trees which are labelled, and is visited by toucans and beautiful butterflies. At the bottom of the garden is a fast flowing mountain river. Food was copious, healthy and presented in an artistic way similar to a Michelin starred restaurant . Unexpected! My bedroom was a small, independent building away from the main house, with a shaded terrace from which I could photo hummingbirds and butterflies. I saw no other tourist during my 4 days here.

The matras was good, but the size a little bit to small for large People.

It was like paradise! The food was like a **** star restaurant, biological, regional produced and daily fresh products. The garden with 65 vareaties of fruittrees (500) was like heaven for bird watching. Swimming in the river magical refreshing. The owners Esteban, Yudi and the little Abi were super friendly and very sympathic.

What a setting. Well away from everything in a beautiful garden with a rushing river at the bottom, in your private garden room surrounded by lush mountains

The bed was a bit small for 2 Dutchies :)

Esteban and Yuri made us feel very welcome. Their 5-year old daughter is adorable as well. This place shows you the real Costa Rica, no other tourists around. The tranquillity, garden, trail to the river deck, surroundings, terrace, tastefull breakfast and dinner (the empanadas Yuri made are fantastic) and not to forget the birding is amazing. So many different species. The hibiscus wine they produce is also nice to try.

A real 10*, Yuri and Esteban are wonderful friendly hosts, the river deck is fantastic, breakfasts and dinners were all special, real fine dining :) ! The garden, the birds, the tranquility, the atmosphere just makes you relax perfectly! To all wonderful places the road is hard, but all was worth it! (4wd is advisable 😉)

No complaints

Our stay was unforgettable.The lodge consists of two bungalows and an eating area. These buildings are built with local wood and are very pleasant. The only reason I do not give the highest rating is that the cabins are of a rural nature which may not appeal to some guests. They are situated in a huge garden with exotic trees. The owner, who is an excellent ornithologist took us round the grounds (paid tour) and explained the trees. On a bird tour of around 3 Kilometers along the river he showed us around. 30 different birds which we would not have detected alone. He and his wife were very attentive and helpful. We could choose what we wanted to eat, and were able to try various CostRican foods. The approach to the grounds require a 4x4 vehicle but is not difficult to drive.

The hospitality and getting an unique insight in rural life in Costa Rica

The place is quite detached from bigger cities, you will have to drive for around 1 hour on the gravel road.

Esteban with his wife are great hosts. We really enjoyed our stay with them. The room and views are very nice. We loved the food. We also went for a trip to local coffee farm owned by Esteban's friend, where we learned about how the coffee is produced in a natural and traditional way. At the end, also the road to this place was ok, we could easily make it with our FWD sedan.

The place was right in the nature, really great to relax, modern and you could wander around to learn on different plants.

Esteban and Yudi are wonderful hosts as they open there home to visitors. Though it’s a bit “off the beaten path”, the location is super peaceful and the cabina with porch super comfortable. The presentation and variety of breakfast (great fruit!) and dinner (yummy dessert) were first rate. We enjoyed bird watching, sitting by the river and learning about the exotic fruit trees. The hibiscus wine is worth trying and its production quite interesting.

Directions sent go to a place, well nowhere, about a kilometer away on another road. No sign in front of hotel so ended up driving around a while asking different people where it was

Super nice hosts doing something different in a lovely setting. Great food and of course wine. Will recommend to friends. Go enjoy the river on site: it’s great!

The curtains are very clear, so the Morning light comes through them.

It is a quiet place, you can have contact with the nature and meditate. There is no noise. The hosts are great and the food too, they serve typicall food, the fruits for the breakfast are exotic and delicious. You feel a warm and comfy enviroment. I highly recommend this place if you want to get away from City.
