The view from our room was stunning. We saw monkeys, Macaws and crocodiles (from a safe distance!). A truly wonderful experience.

Everything was simply spectacular: the whole staff is always keen to help and make you feel at home, starting from Lana, the incredible owner of the lodge; the food is local, fresh and delicious; there is a whole range of activities that Lana organize - we even had the opportunity to participate to a Cacao ceremony that was quite an experience. You could literally spend from few days to few months in that lodge as you will always feel at home. The view of the yoga place is spectacular. Just keep in mind that the road to get there requires 4W car and a really expert driver, so if you don’t feel confident, is a good option to accept the lift from the lodge.

Located in Dos Brazos, Bolita Trails and Lodging features a garden and a bar. The hostel provides both free WiFi and free private parking.

Absolutely fabulous place. After half an hour hike through the forest you arrive to this well maintained place. True that the eating depends on what you bring with you but there is always someone who has more than needs. The trails are great and very well marked.

Danta Corcovado Lodge offers its guests a library, Wi-Fi access in public areas free of charge and extensive gardens. Tea and coffee services are available from 06:00 to 22:00 hours.

Our 2nd visit and we extended it further once we got there. The staff are brilliant (and helped me with improving my Spanish) and the place is unique. We like the Canta Rana bungalow best as it has a lagoon around it, but they are all privately located in the jungle. The dinner deal is great value and good food. There are trails to walk and animals and birds all around. One of our favourite places and we've travelled to over 60 countries. Thanks Merlin and team.

I was lucky enough to be one of the first guests at El Cerrito and I had the most amazing time there. Lis and Dan were so welcoming and the cabin was really comfortable and peaceful, exactly what I was looking for. I saw all kinds of wildlife there - monkeys, tucans, macaws, iguanas, frogs, humming birds, butterflies and sloths. It really felt like being in the jungle but with all the comforts of home. I was originally planning on doing a tour in Corcovado but I ended up doing a tour here with local guides instead and I'm so happy that I did. I got to see so many animals at a fraction of the price of what I would have paid at Corcovado. I will definitely be coming back here again in the future!

Located in Puerto Jiménez in the Puntarenas region, Maze Lodge provides accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking.

Amazing 2 BR house in the middle of the jungle! Clean, spacious, everything we needed. We really enjoyed our time in there. Cooked dinner outside on the patio and spent the evening watching the stars and listening to the sounds from the jungle. Saw monkeys and birds from the patio. Total relaxation. The owner of the place, Alexander, took good care of us. We could also book a guide to our Corcovado tour through him. Would highly recommend!!!

Villas Corcovado-AC-Jacuzzi-Pool-Great Views-Nature-Relaxing offers a hot tub and spa facilities, as well as air-conditioned accommodation in Puerto Jiménez.

The best place we stayed in Costa Rica. Dario and Frederica have set up something special here in Dos Brazos, near the Corcovado National Park. Set in the heart of the jungle, in a lovely small Gold Mining village this beautiful guest house is a fantastic place to stay. Great welcome, the most comfortable bed, shower and space of our trip so far. A lovely fresh breakfast, great self catering facilities (but Frederica is a chef and will cook your dinner). Watching the jungle birds from their deck was a true joy. They went out of their way to book us a guide for a day exploring the jungle - a shout out to Jose who was a brilliant tour guide to the jungle. He grew up in the village, was fantastically knowledgeable about animals, history and Costa Rican life. Speaking excellent English. He is also a great artist - get him to show you the furniture he makes. Dos Brazos is also worth a mention such a lovely little village, the residents there welcomed guests so warmly, everyone we met had a smile and hola. Try the homemade ice creams advertised from small house! Perfect treat after a hot walk. La Casita means little house, but this is a little house with a big heart thanks to Dario and Frederica’s love and attention to detail. Perfect in every way and I wish we could have stayed longer (forever!). grazie per la vostra accoglienza e ospitalità. è un piacere conoscervi entrambi.

An amazing stay - great wildlife, fascinating location, and a unique absence of walls. Fully recommend this one for anyone who wishes to be immersed in the forest, while maintaining most of the comforts of a home.
