Paradiselodge makes an exceptional stay…would highly recommend! Spotlessly clean, super comfy large bed, great breakfast, lovely hot shower, amazing view over the valley with waterfall from the bed and incredibly welcoming hosts. Note there is a well equipped kitchenette to prepare meals, a terrace to relax & dine, a lovely pool to use at all times, sun beds & umbrellas, trails to explore the estate, remote secure gate & boundary. All this in a great position to explore by car the beautiful nearby beaches & Nauyaca waterfalls, which is next door. The hosts Annett, Fritz & Peter have an immense wealth of knowledge about the local area & will help with suggesting tours, restaurants & places of interest. 10/10 well done team ParadiseLodge! 🤩

Beautiful location, plenty of space to sleep, relax, have meals plus great views. Very helpful staff that visited the house while we were away and prepared fireplace for us after we used wood the day before. Perfect location to explore Savegre forest and this area. In the cottage we found a contact to very good, profesional birdwatching guide.

El Toucanet is a delightful small hotel in the mountains with rustic cottages and a spacious, beautiful restaurant overlooking a garden. Moises, at the desk, was a gracious and caring host, as was the kitchen staff. Dinner and breakfast were excellent. Navigation is a must, as the hotel is about 30 minutes from the Pan American Hwy (Hwy 2) - absolutely worth the effort to get there. The sunny morning at breakfast with windows open and many species of hummingbirds feeding was most memorable.

This was the best hotel we stayed in, in 5 weeks in Costa Rica. Everything was perfect, the design of the buildings, the aesthetics and attention to detail, the level of comfort, the service, the food, the cocktails(!) I have travelled a lot but this is one of the places in the world that will stay with me for a long time. Because of the altitude it does get chilly at night so come prepared and make adjustments as needed. For example, we would take a shower while it was still warm, in the late afternoon, rather than first thing in the morning.

Perfect tiny house perched at +2000m high in the mountains with an unbeatable view on the valley below all the way to the Pacific Ocean. Hard to beat if you want some quiet, or hike in the mountains. It's small but functionnal, clean, with proper hot water and easy access. The hosts live nearby and have been very responsive. Pura Vida!

Large ptivate cabine close to nature with large balcony facing the mountain. We saw green toucanets from the balcony while having breakfast! Comfortable bed with lots of blankets. Hot water available. Large parking area. No kitchen but tea and coffee machine in the cabine. Don't be too late for check-in as road to get there is a steep and it is not easy to drive at night.

The girl who greeted us was very friendly and not only gave us information about the accommodation but also about the restaurants and the different activities available in the entire area, as well as recommendations in this regard. The chalet is not only very comfortable and spacious but is also located in a privileged location. At night we were able to see the stars lulled by the nearby river and in the morning we woke up to the singing of birds where the goldfinch stood out. It's a great place.

The rooms looking really nice, cabin feeling. The view is beautiful. The rooms are clean No other facilities than a bed in the room. No fridge, no water cooker, this would have been a big plus.

This is a family owned cabin business with a small restaurant and great deck to view a large variety of birds including the infamous Quetzal. The stay was minimalist cabins but worth the stay to see many Quetzals. Restuarant has good selection of meals. The family were very friendly and helpful and even came to let us know that the quetzals were arriving for the late afternoon visit. We also had a great hike down to the waterfall.

This is worth the drive if you enjoy nature, scenic views, hiking and delicious meals! Fantastic chef, best food I’ve had in Costa Rica! Chalets are rustic, simple, clean and cozy which was perfect for our time visiting this beautiful section of the cloud forest.
