I booked a five-night stay at Natural Green Lodge for my honeymoon, but we ended up leaving less than 12 hours after arriving because the conditions were unacceptable.
When we first entered our room, there were bugs everywhere—not just all over the curtains, but on and around the bed as well. The bathroom had so many bugs that there was a lizard on the wall eating a line of them. In addition, the shower never produced hot water, and the jacuzzi did not work, despite paying extra to reserve a room specifically with that feature.
The staff moved us to another room for the night, which we appreciated, but unfortunately that room had its own issue. A bird had gotten into the vent area above the room and made noise throughout the night, making it nearly impossible to sleep.
Because of these ongoing problems, we decided we could not continue our stay. We checked out the following morning and booked another hotel nearby for the remainder of our trip.

We arrived early and needed to drop off our luggage before a white water trip that we were running late for. They hurried and cleaned our room so we could make our check in time.

We absolutely loved our stay at Natural Green! Our lodge was so cute and felt right at home in the rainforest. It had really unique touches that complemented the natural environment, and the environment itself is breathtaking! They’ve taken a lot of time and effort into making the garden stunning. We had the cabin with the natural pool and to sit there and listen to the animals was absolutely incredible. They made us feel very special on our honeymoon and had sweet touches like a note and champagne. We really appreciated David who helped us get settled and set up tours and made us feel right at home. We also loved the restaurant and especially the servers Jesus and Gerardo. Jesus went out of his way to make us feel welcome and had great conversation, and Gerardo gave great recommendations. We felt like family at the end of our days here and can’t wait to come back!

Our honeymoon suite was everything we wanted and more. They have a restaurant on the property that is delicious the bridge over the stream & long walkway back felt like that of a top notch resort. I would recommend this property to anyone trying to do the waterfall and any local activity all in one day. Thank you Green Lodge.

Nos quedamos solo una noche por qué viajamos para asistir a una boda. El Hotel es pequeño, con aire de ser acogedor y familiar.

Tiene un edificio principal de madera estilo rústico, de apariencia nueva, donde está el lobby y el restaurante.

Tiene un área de estacionamiento gratuito, la propiedad en sí es grande, rodeada de bosques y hay que cruzar un lindo puente de madera para llegar a las habitaciones

Las habitaciones son cabañas de madera estilo rústico, muy lindas, cuentan con aire acondicionado, también cuenta con buena iluminación y un ventilador de techo (sin embargo no se puede regular en el ventilador)

Cuenta con un baño amplio, con regadera con agua caliente

La cama es cómoda y para dos persona

Cuenta con una pequeña refrigerados para guardar refrescos o agua, no incluye nada ni tampoco snacks.

La habitación cuenta con una máquina para realizar cafe gratis.

Es una habitación para disfrutar la naturaleza, no cuenta con televisión, si hay buen internet wifi tanto en la habitación y el área común.

El único contra que no nos gustó fue el desayuno incluido, donde los ingredientes no era y se cocina con mucha grasas, el jugo de naranja no era natural (era de paquete de preparación instantánea) realmente el desayuno fue el único punto bajo

El personal muy amable y atento

Si regresaríamos definitivamente , pero no desayunaríamos 😉

This place is absolutely beautiful. The staff are pretty laid back and not to helpful with information. Also, we had the honeymoon cabin with the whirlpool but we’re disappointed to learn upon arrival it needed to be filled by ourselves. It took more than 4 hours as we wanted it to be warm and did not use the cold water tap. It was lovely and private once filled. Also we saw monkeys from our front cabin seating area.

Overall, very pleased with the cleanliness of the bungalow and the grounds. The path to each bungalow is well maintained and gives a real jungle feel. David at the front desk greeted us at check in and made us feel welcome. The free breakfast was also delicious. The air conditioning worked well and cooled down the room nicely.

A few comments:
-Not worth it to get the room with the private outdoor jacuzzi. There is no cover on it so within a day there was rainwater and leaves in it. Also, they only allow one towel per person so we couldn’t get any extra clean towels to use with it. Very disappointed in that- they expect you to take a shower and use a dirty towel from the jacuzzi? Because of those things, we never ended up using it.
-It truly feels like upscale camping because you can hear the cicadas and other animals quite loudly in the room. The sound of the rain was the worst. It is VERY loud inside the room so if it started raining hard (which it often does), it woke us up. If you like a more traditional hotel feel this may not be the place for you!

We really enjoyed the stay at the Natural Green, the staff were incredibly welcoming, very helpful and a good team. The typical breakfast with excellent as were the cocktails are happy hour. The real standout of the hotel was the gardens and grounds which were just beautiful. The restaurant and bar were goods and there was also a fantastic soda (Soda Fortuna) around the corner as well as Chante Verde which was a great place for an evening meal.

One or two slight niggles for that there was no bedside table or a bedside light, or a water dispenser in the common areas, which meant that we had to ask for our bottles to be filled a couple of times a day.

Intimate hotel with a beautiful garden and premises, breakfast is provided at the front porch with incredible views of the mountains. Few people on staff, but very nice and helpful. Rooms are small, no TV, and little too warm on arrival, because A/C is off until unit is officially occupied. Perfect for the love birds or a couple seeking a quiet getaway. Near the city center (5 min away) where you can walk around, lots of places to eat and a supermarket to grab your snacks for the night!

Great stop at The Green Lodge

Dinner at the restaurant is fantastic! The Chocolate tour (5 min walk) was a great mid morning tour and very interesting - make and eat your own chocolate! The walk up to La Fortuna was challenging so ask for a ride of you need one. The owner was incredibly helpful and was able to get me a day pass to Baldi Springs for the locals rate :)

We stayed for 2 nights and absolutely loved it. Check-in was extremely easy, the free breakfast was fresh and service was great. The AC was great and staff responds super fast using their WhatsApp. Location is amazing as it’s super close to El Salto and the waterfall but avoids the noise of downtown La Fortuna. The rain also sounded amazing on the roof at night. They also have private access to a river! Perfect location if you are looking for a stay in nature that still has the comfort of a resort.

We had a great time! We went with the superior bungalow. It was truly like being in the rainforest. You could hear the animals every morning and night. The plants and flowers were gorgeous and the land is well maintained. The staff is super friendly and accommodating.
My only suggestion would be to add blackout curtains to the already existing curtains, but everything was perfect!
