Wonderful location, with views towards Poas Volcano. Tranquil and peaceful location with beautiful gardens, landscape. Friendly and helpful staff throughout. Good choice of breakfast was included in the room rate we had paid. We ate each night at the lodge and the food was delicious and such a lovely cosy restaurant. The lounge area was beautifully furnished and we loved the little log burners which warmed it. We would certainly stay here again.

Our hosts (Alejandra, Ken and Daniel) were lovely, we felt extremely welcome and they helped us organize activities and excursions, and they gave us advice on car rentals before we arrived. In general, the level of hospitality was excellent and we felt very welcome and taken care of. The multi-course breakfast was large and delicious, with an amazing view and extremely attentive service. The gardens and the rest of the property were a masterpiece and we spent some time exploring and hanging out on a hammock next to the woods, which was very peaceful.

Not far from Poás volcano. The shorter road is quite steep but not the worst I had in Costa Rica I think it only took me just over 5 minutes. This was the most comfortable bed from all the places I stayed at. And the cabin is so very nicely built and decorated that you can tell that the quest's comfort is the priority for the hosts.

Good roads but narrow as usual thru towns.

Good roads but narrow as usual thru towns. Different landscape with the farms and greenhouses and coffee plantations in rolling hills. Waterfalls. Loved the drifting clouds coming up the valleys in the evening. Cool evenings and warm days.

We went to La Paz Waterfall gardens and it was an amazing place. You could easily spend an entire day there. Also the area is known for strawberries. We bought some from a roadside stand and they were delicious.

This hotel is a heaven on earth. I would definitely recommend it if you are in the area. The rooms are spacious and quite. Breakfast was great but you should also try their dinner menu - everything we tried was delicious. There are many areas in the property where you can enjoy the views and nature. Try their own walking trails on the property!

This felt like a very special place. Everyone has their own cabin with fire place should you need to warm up. There’s a long walk you can do through the jungle from the hotel which was really nice. The staff were really helpful when it came to getting taxis around, but a lot easier here to have a car.
