We just spent 2 nights in this little treehouse, and we loved it! we woke up with all sounds of the nature (birds, monkey). The room is clean and comfortable. We had a delicious local dinner on site. it was very practical as the road isn’t very easy especially at night. The owners were friendly and helpful.

The grounds of the lodge are fabulous. There is plenty to explore, with an orchid garden and the Ceiba Tree overlooking the property. The breakfast was really nicely done, with a fabulous set-up of the flowers hanging down from the roof of the place. Also overlooking the Lake Arenal, and a feeding station for birds. Fresh coffee brewed the original way at the table. We also got our laundry done by the hosts, which was really handy, great value and done with more care than dedicated businesses for it. We paid extra for the room with a terrace, and it was worth that for the view and sitting out.

Carlos and Werner have created the most amazing experience. Their home is just so comfortable and has everything you need. Carlos’ cooking is fantastic! If you’re lucky enough to have the Deutsch pancake you’ll love it. Werner was so good with the tours and really took the time to make sure I had the best experience, suggesting options that weren’t on my radar but were fantastic. Thank you for such a wonderful stay.

This place was great, and really feels like you’re staying a bit off the well worn tourist trail. Friendly staff, lovely cabins annd amazing tube tour of the river with awesome guides. We got a flat tire and Odir and his wife gave us incredibly helpful local knowledge and assistance. Wish we could have stayed an extra night!

It was safe, very clean and the location was amazing. Just sitting on the balcony we saw a tucan, hummingbirds and a squirrel. And if you're lucky you can even see a sloth! Best of all: the owner!! She's so kind. She did everything to make our stay comfortable! Wish we would have stayed longer!! It's a beautiful place. Close to Tenorio Park. Very recommended!!

Location was nice and private at the end of a dirt road. Which we loved the peace and tranquillity. Had neighbouring sloths we could clearly see through binoculars which was a highlight of our stay. Birds were plentiful. Staff was wonderful and accommodating. Even enjoyed an evening game of farkle with them. Breakfast was great.

The houses are beautifully built, clean and comfortable. The staff is very helpful and friendly, they made accomodations to satisfy our needs, including helping us with tours and food. Also, after visiting 4 hotels during our trip, we all concluded that the beds here were the best of all!

This place is off the beaten track and a perfect stop. Spotlessly clean and has everything you need. The view and terrace is amazing!!! Its like having your own private rainforest!!! We could have watched the hummingbirds all day. The hosts are fantastic and we spoke with google translate. Easy! I highly recommend this if your are on a road trip to Rio Celeste etc. Thank you for our stay!

Where do I even start......... this place is perfect hidaway. Looking into the greenery from your super comfy bed or hammock, sipping coffee on the little terrace, listnening to the sounds of nature... The river running just behind the house was such nice surprise, with fresh clean water, surrounding nature and quiet privacy There are many places to stay in Costa Rica, many of them beautiful but this one is really unique and I hope I will have a chance to stay there again.
