Mirador Prendas

Amazing

Pros: Location, quiteness, friendly staff, amazing rooms, beauty of nature

Extraordinary house

Pros: Extraordinary build. This house was spectacular, huge and crafted almost entirely from wood. The food was delicious and the host very welcoming. We liked the two waterfall hikes you can do on your own and the ziplining.

Cons: We used this as a stop between Tortuguero and Tenorio. As such it was perfect. But I imagine there wouldn‘t be lots to do if you stayed much longer than 2 nights.

An art piece of a house built into the forest itself.

Pros: A very special and incredible place to visit. You will need a good car to get there, but you will not be disappointed. It is a huge tree house stretching through the native forest as it is built into the forest. Great for bird watchers and frog spotters. Great hikes between waterfalls and around local fields and villages. Very caring staff will book local tours for you and will look after you with a high level of hospitality. The rooms are very big, the bed and mattress are impressive and the mosquito net is well built and spacious! We are very grateful!

Pros: This place is...magical. I felt like Alice in Wonderland the whole time. It's the baby of a CR artist who bought the land in the 80s. His artist friends all wanted to come and visit, so he had to make more room. All by himself and his friends. And then more artists from all over came, helped with the build and left their mark everywhere- murals, sculpures, whatever. And I have this from the horse's mouth, as we had the privilege to meet both the owner and his grandson in person. Oh, to have been a fly on the wall back then...And the drive up there is amazing as well. This place is mindblowing.

Cons: Sorry guys, but the food is...not good. At all. And expensive, for what it is.

Back to basic in the jungle

Pros: If you are up for some adventure in nature this is the place. It is back to basic facilities, but with your private waterfall and pool and a great wildlife view from the mirador. We loved it. You need to 4x4 to get there.

Wonderful stay

Pros: The breakfast was amazing and it was delivered to our floor. Nixon was an amazing host, he was super helpful! We can highly recommend to stay there.

Cons: Please make sure to have a 4x4 car to get there. It is almost impossible to do it without one.

Amazing hidden gem with great views and personal service

Pros: Remote location was amazing with beautiful views and waterfall on property just a short hike away. Very quiet and secluded area. Nixon was our service specialist who brought us our meals to eat on the balcony and assisted with anything we needed. Very personal service

an unmatched place! Fantastic!

Pros: a fantastic place in backcountry nature. very friendly hosts. Nick was exceptional, we felt very welcome!

Magical giant wood shack overlooking a natural reserve

Pros: The location is very remote but worth it. Waking up to the sound of birds and nature was amazing. The staff is also super friendly and accomodating and the view is unbeatable.

Cons: The road to get there is really bumpy so you are a bit stuck there. We have young kids and they were happy but also going around in circles at times, there are lots of stairs as well so it was a bit tiring. Also we didn't see that much wildlife in the end.

Awesome!

Pros: a very unique and special place in the midst of the jungle - extraordinary! Quiet a journey to get there - but it‘s worth it.
