There is a lot to do at this resort. Our room was clean, fine/basic, with no air conditioning. It included a good breakfast and hot springs. There were many restaurants on the property, but only two were open. Mirador, which had a beautiful view and plenty of seating. It had good food, but was expensive. The other restaurant was a $30 buffet. The resort is in a remote location, so there are no other dining options within an hour. There are many fun activities to do at a cost. It's cheaper to group your activities in one day and order online. We had a wonderful two-day stay, but it was expensive overall for the stay, dining, and activities. Definitely take advantage of the hot springs and free eco farm. Victor went out of his way during all of our dining experiences to make us feel special. He was the most friendly and helpful employee.

We had a mountain room for 2 nights. We had a wonderful time. The cabin was clean, modern and had air conditioning. We loved the hammock form our front porch and saw Coati on several occasions while on our porch. The staff at the resort were sincere and kind. We enjoyed getting to know many of the staff here. The location was unique as it was the center of so many adventurous activities. During our stay we went horseback riding, to a waterfall, zip-lined, walked across multiple hanging bridges, went down a water slide, hot springs and went on a night tour of the jungle. All of these activities were incredible and on property. I would highly recommend this hotel if you’re looking for a little adventure with nice accommodations.

Everything about this stay was perfect. The staff was helpful and attentive and they made it a point to know how glad they were that you were staying at their resort. As a warning you are in the jungle so expect bugs, animals, and other critters along with some noise in the morning but if you want to be close to nature, and have a great stay this is the best place we could’ve imagined for our honeymoon!

The convenience of having so many amenities so close was amazing for our first time in Costa Rica. Get the package! We did so many fun things that were adrenaline driven! Food was great loved that they made fresh eggs for you! And the lunch during our adventure day was AMAZING I mean the best meal after excursions 10/10. And the Sunset dinner is stunning.
I checked many things off a Costa Rica Bucket list with our stay here!

My complaint would be be the beds oh man they were rough on my back. We didn't have a fridge and that would have been great to plan for. We ended up getting a neighbors when they left for our last two days.When we checked in the lady didn't tell us all the other things we could do near our stay so ask if you need plans luckily we planned a day at the beach. But upon checked out another great was getting lots of other options. No AC in our room but night is fine ans you aren't there to be in the room I would hope. BRING BUG SPRAY. We got ate up at night. If you drive be prepared for a rough road up. We are from CO so we knew how to handle the switch backs and pot holes.

All in all 10/10 would come back again!!

It was nice to stay on the property with all of the amenities.The adventure park included a lot of things with your stay. The hot springs were cool and amazing, we did the horseback riding, which was fun. The breakfast buffet was excellent. The only thing I would change is I would probably get a room with an air conditioner.It got pretty warm trying to sleep. We had to leave the windows open but then you hear the birds and the monkeys very early in the morning.

We stayed for 2 nights. The resort is very cool with a lot of nature right in the middle of the jungle. The rooms are nice. The food is expensive and mostly just okay. There are a lot of activities to do there, but you are a captive audience and excursions are quite expensive. Transportation out there is a bit difficult, be prepared for a long Uber ride.

The service at the Sunset Bar was abysmal, the first night we went there they forgot my pizza I had ordered. The second night we went we were there for 45 minutes without someone even coming to give us water so we left and went to the other restaurant. -1 star for that.

We did the night walk tour with a guide who was very knowledgeable; however he touched nesting baby Nightjars on the ground which is not only ILLEGAL in Costa Rica but extremely distressing for the bird who wasn't even old enough to fly away. We did not ask him to do this nor encourage it in any way. This was really disappointing for us as nature lovers and shameful for a resort that has signs everywhere reminding people to respect the environment and nature. -1 star for that as I hope it isn't reflective of everyone who works there.

The next day we did a bird watching tour with a different guide who was great and we saw a lot of interesting birds and animals. We then went on the hanging bridges without a guide and saw even more animals such as an anteater.

Overall it was a really great experience soured a bit by those two negative experiences.

We had an amazing time at Buena Vista Eco lodge. We stayed in the cabins and it was such a clean and cute accommodation. The buffet breakfast was excellent, we couldn’t have asked for more. We ate at both the Jaguar and the Mirador restaurant, the Jaguar had a wider selection and the food was delicious, while the Mirador is lighter fare but with stunning views of the country side and sunset. We did the zipline, the horse riding tour, the bird tour and the night tour. The zipline and horse riding was amazing, I would do it again in a heartbeat. The bird and night tours are lovely, but you have to be realistic in what you may or may not see. The staff in every location: the front desk, all restaurants, the nightour and bird tour guide, and the horseback riding guides are incredible, helpful, friendly, and they make it such a great experience. Be sure to set aside a day for the thermal pools, at first we didn’t realize how immense it was, but definitely worth it!

Very nice peoperty. My mountain view cabin was amazing! No view of mountain but there's a great view 2 mins walk away at the Miraflores Restaurant.

Rough road getting in. Hotel arranged a taxi for us to the airport in Liberia, $100 US cash. The road conditions are an issue. I personally wouldn't drive my own vehicle on this path. Hotel should get this paved. It’s not an issue that it's gravel per se, the issue is more like how uneven it is and the hilly parts have pot holes that were reminiscent of my atv jungle tour.
Included breakfast buffet - but had limited options and food wasn't hot. 4/10 both days. My son opted for cereal and he's not a cereal kid.
Fruit was fresh and delicious.
If ordering a coffee at one of the restaurants, ask for milk separately. I like a little milk (still mid brown colour but staff adds too much and makes it a light beige. No longer tastes like coffee).
Miraflores restaurant used a sad, old pineapple slice for my Pina Colado. Had a perfect one at Jaguar Restaurant (next to reception).
Pool is nice but no changeroom/washroom. Closest is at hotel reception. Can easily renovate one of the rooms that's right by the pool. Bar menu at pool is limited and again, without a washroom I wasn't keen to order more than one drink. And only ordered 1 total. Change this \"one thing\" and sales will increase dramatically

We had a Lakeview room that hadn’t yet been renovated, so while it was clean, it was fairly basic. There was no air conditioning, just a ceiling fan, which was manageable but something to be aware of depending on your comfort level.

One of the highlights of our stay was the incredible wildlife—we were visited by coatis and howler monkeys, and we also spotted toucans and butterflies around the property. The gardens are absolutely beautiful and really add to the peaceful, natural atmosphere. The pool was also very refreshing and a great place to relax.

After a few days, the restaurant options did start to feel a bit repetitive, but it was fine for a shorter stay. We also visited the hot springs, which were beautiful, though be prepared—there are quite a lot of mosquitoes.

Overall, I would recommend this hotel for couples and families looking for a nature-filled getaway. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay, and I felt safe at all times.

I was a bit surprised there was no air conditioning in our room but realize that this isn’t widely available and wasn’t really necessary once it cooled down at night.
We paid for a few of the additional adventure park activities (water slide and night hike) and they were excellent too.

Room was nice but we stayed in the upgraded Mountain rooms. Other facilities seemed a bit rundown. Food wasn’t great.

They finally confirmed but when we got to the restaurant they didn’t even have our table ready or seem to know anything. They did end up accommodating us after I insisted. And at 9 am in the morning a gardener started weed whacking all the lawns and areas outside of all the mountain rooms which went on for 2 hours. No option to sit on our porch or relax with that happening. Perhaps they do those areas between 11-2 pm so people can enjoy their patio and room in peace. Thanks

They allowed us to split up our activities over two days so we did most of them one day and the hanging bridges before we checked out the next. There aren’t many options for food around the resort and I feel more than 2 nights unless you are driving to do an activity elsewhere would have been too much. But for 2 nights it was perfect.

Buena Vista del Rincón Eco Adventure Park, Hotel & Spa was an absolute delight! From the moment we arrived, everyone was so warm and welcoming.

We enjoyed soaking in the relaxing hot springs, enjoying a beautiful horseback ride through the property, and learning so much during the cultural tour. The food was fresh and delicious, and the service was excellent from start to finish.

Our room was spacious, modern, and comfortable, definitely a pleasant surprise in the middle of such lush nature. My only observation: while they provide you with a room key, the floor-to-ceiling window and sliding door didn’t seem too interested in locking. So technically, the key is more of a decorative souvenir!

Aside from that little quirk, I absolutely loved my stay and would come back. It’s a perfect mix of adventure, culture, and relaxation, highly recommended for anyone visiting Costa Rica!

The team at the property were ALL excellent - thank you. The property is accessed via an unmade road which was hard work for our small hire car - but because it was a hire car it made it through. The facilities are good. I tried the canopy walk, river slide, zip line and hot springs, all of which were very good. The evening meals we had were of a high standard, especially considering that all the food has to be transported a long way. The breakfast was good ( but didn’t live up to the standard of the evening meals). We were in a hacienda and the walls are very thin. We had a great two days and would highly recommend the facility.

Save toilet paper and waste with a powerless bidet seat 40$ Costco. Hygienic and an experience too!

This is like staying at a cabin over summer break when you were a kid. All you need and clean just not like a hotel or resort room. I did not mind but my husband would have liked more comforts. I loved the whole resort, and experience would definitely come back. Food was amazing and the most beautiful sunset I think I have ever seen. People were friendly and helpful, activities were all so much fun. It was off the beaten path. Not super close to anything. Plan on staying here for activities.

We really enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere here and being surrounded by wildlife. The sunset view from the Mirador restaurant was stunning! The food was good and the staff were friendly. The included breakfast buffet was amazing.

This is a remote location, with limited Wi-Fi, but it was fantastic. Plenty of adventures during the day, and service is friendly and informative. Carlos was brilliant at El Mirador, and gave us plenty of useful tips for the rest of our stay in CR.

Exceptional location with a commanding view of the Costa Rican West Coast and Pacific Ocean. Stunning sunsets from the restaurant and bar at the top of the hill. Wonderful selection of activities in and around the property, with trips to the hot springs, horseback riding, water slide, cultural demos, etc. Only shortfalls might be road access (it is very rough) and lack of a store for snacks or other necessities.

Buena Vista del Rincon is an excellent place to experience various Costa Rica experiences in single place. It is located in the gorgeous place with great scenery around, and a lot of wildlife - we've seen various beautiful birds, a few kinds of monkeys, agouti, coati, iguanas, etc. The place offer's day pass which includes all the activities for a single price - I'd strongly suggest using it. We stayed just 2 nights, but managed to squeeze in all the activities. It would be easier if we stayed 3 nights though.
The whole place is very well managed and runs as an efficient machine - everything goes on time, and crew makes sure to keep all the requests met. The food in breakfast and lunch buffet is Ok (not the gourmet options, but sufficiently alright).
The place is clean and well maintained.

The pool was much smaller than it appears on the website. When we arrived the hot tub was drained and the pool bar closed, so not a great first impression. However, the Mirador restaurant has an amazing view and a delicious menu. We enjoyed the hot springs although it was a bumpy 20 min tractor ride away. Slide was fun for my son. Breakfast was excellent.

This place was so disgusting bugs in the bed not clean front desk kept trying to charge us for every little thing. Contacted Expedia canceled our reservation and went to another hotel. Upon arrival the locals around there live in a lot of poverty and have underage workers.

Dépaysant

C’est tres dépaysant, le seul point négatif est le chemin pour s’y rendre car c’est un chemin très accidenté, mais typique pour le costa rica, mais rendu sur place ca vaut la peine car il y a plein d’activités sur place, c’est tres intéressant
