Karole is absolutely amazing. The apartment is on a family estate, it’s beautiful and very well furnished. We felt at home, far from the tourist area, in nature. We saw a lot of toucans and other amazing birds. Thank you so much. We had a blast!

The host Carol is a very friendly, talkative person. I couldn’t find the property because of the heavy rain and my phone didn’t have reception. I called Carol from a nearby restaurant and she came over to pick me up. Her property is pretty new, very clean, the rooms are generously big.

First of all a big big thank you to Ernesto an Leslie, the owners of Vocaré, who made this wonderful and special experience so marvelous. From the first minute we felt like visiting friends, such a warm welcome for us and our two kids. Our kids loved the dogs (9), pigs, chicken and bats😉 Ernesto and Leslie made a super delicious breakfast with fruits from their garden. The Dinner was a dream, fresh smoothies with fruits from the trees next to you, vegetables from the garden and the best fish I have eaten. Ernesto and Leslie I told you, I will be back just to have dinner with you😉 The river next to Vocaré is so nice. We went swimming in the river, there is kind of a pool, also our daughter (5) could swim there on here own. All in one, one of our best experiences in our Costa Rica holidays.

Our stay was an exceptional experience. Roger and Rose were super kind and helpful giving ideas for places to visit, where to eat etc. One of the highlights was the breakfast, every day with fresh fruit juice and varied costarican food. Malekus is located in a stunning location surrounded by nature at its best. Definitively highly recommendable!!

We just loved our short stay here! The lodge was beautifully made with so many nice details, realy showing some great skills. The kotchen was fully equippes although we did not use it. The owners were lovely people. And the welcome with wine and chocolate was amazing! Unfortunately it rained heavily for most of our stay but we had a small window to listen to and watch birds in the morning.

Authentic, homely feel. Cacao tour included with the booking was a nice touch. We have enjoyed home cooked meals and hot chocolate! The views from the lodge into the rain forest were fantastic. We have spent afternoons relaxing in the hammock or sipping cocktails in the jacuzzi overlooking the forest.

Beautiful rainforest area, very quiet, tranquil and very remote. If you want to do hikes or tours, plan the rates for entrance-fees and guides in advance, they tried to take a bit of advantage of us charging us a lot of $$$

Upala is a wonderful part of the country, partly because it is so much less visited. The wildlife/cacao/waterfalls/volcanoes - are all wonderful. go to las hornillas, have a hot tub in a volcanic crater, get some almost good cheese. go sit in a waterfall and let nature massage you.
