The staff was amazingly friendly, the food was wonderful and the only problem was in the steep climb to our room! A staff member took my bag to the room for me so all I had to do was get up there myself (luckily) I am sure younger people would not have a problem.

I will note that the location does have a lot of steep climbs and hills so be prepared to hike a little bit if you want to explore or if your room is further away from the restaurant.

The hotel is a perfect place to stay while experiencing this beautiful area there are so many birds.

A long and bumpy ride up to the lodge. As soon as you check in they force you to pay for breakfast as you are disoriented and tired from the ride. You are told you are not allowed to decide in the morning if you are even hungry. Paid for two for breakfast. In the morning only one could eat breakfast because the other was sick. Asked for a refund for the one, two weeks later never received it compensation. Also Couldn’t even open my balcony door because the outside smell of sewage. Paper thin walls where you could hear everything next door…Too bad as place has potential.

The internet is awful. As well as the pool—the pool is literally falling apart. It looks like a huge tub that was left on its own. The lounge chairs are the most uncomfortable , and there’s only four of them for the whole hotel .

The room is very outdated, very outdated. The shower is in the bathroom. It definitely needs a makeover, but if your expectations are low and you plan to spend most of your day hiking, it’s a perfect crash point.
The brave first is very decent fresh fruit and yogurt, coffee and orange juice. Perfect to start your day.
The AC in the room works well ,
After we had the stuff coming to fix it.

We booked this hotel for a short drive from Liberia, on our first day. The road is decent, but not a quick, simple drive. The property is near the Rincon de la Vieja National Park, although you must drive a little to get to the park. Hotel staff were knowledgeable about the park’s features and what was open on different days. We loved how remote and peaceful this hotel feels. Definitely use Waze to find your way to, from, and around the park. Sadly, we wasted valuable time getting lost, missing what we wanted to see.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Property was in good shape and had a nice walking trail on property. We would rated this property much higher, but we stayed in room 506. This was the noisiest hotel room we have EVER stayed in. It is typically very windy in this part of Costa Rica and this unit was the upstairs unit with a tin roof. We thought the whole building was going to come down when the wind blew. I'm a sound sleeper but even I had a very fitful night's sleep while here. Yes, the road up to the lodge is attrocious but we sort of expected that based on previous reviews. Just expect to add a lot of extra time to estimates of time to get there. The restaurant was fine and service was good. Just fix the roof!

Beautiful property with so much to do on the grounds. We were traveling with two infants and were able to do a few different lakes right from the resort. The pool was nice and the staff were wonderful. My only criticism is there is only one restaurant with the same menu every day and although it is a large selection on the menu, there really isn’t anywhere else to eat close by if you don’t have a car as this is a secluded location. If the restaurant did different theme nights or offered a different menu each night, it might make it a little bit more exciting to eat in the same place for multiple nights in a row.

La nourriture est de qualité. Les petits déjeuners sont copieux mais un peu redondant. Endroit excellent pour visiter Rincon de la Vieja et ses environs.

The staff were great, the room was perfect, the food options were good and tasted great. We wish we had scheduled more time there so that we could have explored the property itself. In the full day, we had there, we had Rinconcito’s guide, Walter, take us to both sections of Rincón de la Vieja, which was AWESOME.

Found this place when looking for a hotel between La fortuna and Tamarindo . Then found the hot springs near by as well because of this . The hotel was easy to check into and they even let us check in sooner so we could enjoy hot springs and not worry about our belongings. We got the breakfast which was great.The rooms were clean and comfortable and staff was very friendly . We did have dinner here as well as its good only choice in the area besides the resort at the hot springs . Food was great plenty of choices however the drinks were pretty weak and watered down. Beware the roads in and out of this area have not been maintained and lots holes so give yourself time and take it easy . Was nice to have suv for this reason just to have the clearance . I would still however recommend this property.

This seems like a cool place. But…there is very limited options for food. I had to eat the same thing every day because they were out of everything. Also the tours weren’t really available..or if they were I had to go with a guide who doesn’t speak English. It wasn’t the cleanest either- spiders in the room, ants in the bed and smelled musty and dank. Pretty place tho. I’m sure it’s better during the busy season.

Nice but ask about if you need 4x4 before booking

This hotel was comfortable, clean and the food in the restaurant was good. Unfortunately, nobody mentioned needing 4x4 to get up to our room. It was fine for us when the road was dry but after it rained and was muddy we couldn't make it up and had to hike it up. Also we were woken at 530am when our neighbour was on a phone call for almost 2 hours. Walls are thin as we could him in the shower too. All of the staff was friendly minus the receptionist who made us feel uncomfortable and really tried to push tours on us. So we didn't hate it and the rooms were nice minus the loud neighbour wake up call and not having enough towels for us and no phone to call to ask for more without walking down the steep hill.

This lodge is ok for someone who likes quiet. Although cold in the morning and nights. You would not want to sit on your balcony at night. There is no kitchenette or coffee machine in the rooms so you are forced to eat at their restaurant. There is a small town reachable by car but the roads are atrosious. The staff was nice, but it was not what was expected.

Our second time visiting and was again a great experience! Food is always good and the hospitality is amazing. Loved laying by the pool in the hammocks and enjoying the peacefulness of being in nature!

My 10 y.o. daughter and myself did a horseback riding experience. It was our fist time and we really liked it! The horses were gentle and the ride was for more than 2 hours. I recommend ! ($35 us per person)

Staff were quite friendly and accommodating despite our arrival late at night. They said they would leave a key for us in reception, but in the end they were awake and helped us to the room.

The walk to our cabin was slightly steep, so if you have a disability I would suggest advising them in advance so they can give you a nearer room.

We had specified two queens in the reservation but we were given one king. We did not bother to correct it since our arrival was so late at night, but I suspect they would have been happy to change rooms.

Great path on the property for a short hike and view of the volcano. A friendly resident dog showed me all the trails :) Later, I brought my 70 year-old father and it took him about 40 minutes round trip.

The minute that my feet stepped outside I could feel the amazing energy of this place! It was calm and serene. What a pleasure it was to stay here! We enjoyed our hike with the local tpur guide Jose. He made us feel welcomed and safe. I highly would recommend this place! Everything and everyone was amazing!

This property is a hidden gem in a private forest area near Miravalles Volcano. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained, the rooms are standard but comfortable, a little dark inside. It is quiet and peaceful. My kids loved the hammock, which is available for each room. Food is fresh and delicious and, as we have come to know, Costa Rican hospitality is second to none.

Great atmosphere and fantastic food. Staff was amazingly friendly and very accommodating. Pool was refreshing but could use some fixing up. Rooms were spacious and clean with great WiFi connection, but the beds were rather uncomfortable. The views from our room and the great food made up for anything lacking.

We enjoyed our night there

We enjoyed our night there. Super mellow, with all sorts of jungle noises to wake up with. Very nice grounds, with a 20 minutes hike to a private (small) waterfall in the property. Very friendly staff and very nice breakfast included.

Very nice hotel with great location close to many tours near Volcán Rincon de la vieja, restaurant on site and great service. My only observation was that the room was not ready at the moment of the check in and we had to wait 3 hours in the cafeteria but other than that it was great.

THE BEST place I stayed during my 3 week vacation around Costa Rica! The food at the restaurant was amazing and cheap, the service was perfect, the place is gorgeous. The only downside is that it’s super hard to get to rincon de la vieja region. But if you’re going there, this is the place where you want to stay! Make sure you plan to stay a while cause this place is awesome

Nice lodging

Nice accommodation. Only ate one dinner at restaurant and it was good. Limited menu. Breakfast was good too. Be very careful with food in your room due to potential for ants. You are in heavily wooded area after all.

The lodge was set in a beautiful and remote part of the forest, very close to Rincon de la Vieja. Our hosts were very friendly and provided helpful info about hiking in the park. We had a comfortable and clean room and loved the balcony. We also had a surprisingly delicious and affordable 3-course dinner there.

This was the most beautiful property I have stayed at in Costa Rica. We have stayed at least 12 different places. The staff was more than inviting and they even let us check in early and offered a beautiful upgrade for $15 a night. The vegetarian plate was amazing and the breakfast was the best free breakfast we’ve ever had. I would suggest bringing drinks, water and snacks as they are limited and pricy and it’s a 25 min drive to the store.
