Pure relaxation

Pros: The lodge offers beautiful views over the mountains and over the Pacific Ocean. There‘s plenty to see in the local village of Santa Juana, from wildlife to beautiful waterfalls where one can bathe in. The food is deliciously prepared freshly by the staff everyday. The staff are absolutely fantastic. Everything they do is made with love, and you feel this as a guest. Many of the staff are related to each other, and they make you feel like a part of their family as well during your stay. We’re very grateful for having stayed here and experiencing the local culture and landscapes. I‘d strongly recommend booking this lodge. An SUV is a must to get to the lodge, a 4x4 even more so.

Beautiful lodge with a gorgeous view and the people are amazing.

Pros: Amazing view and great lodge. In the middle of nature. Lots of birds spotted. And last but not least; the staff was amazing. Made me feel at home and part of the family. I stayed for a whole week and believe me if you only spent one or two nights there you will regret that you can’t stay longer. A place to never forget.

Perfect immersive stay in the heart of Costa Rica

Pros: We booked 3 lodges and they were exactly as we had hoped. They were in keeping with the breathtaking scenery. We loved every minute of our stay, from the exciting drive up to Santa Juana, the wildlife and beautiful surroundings.
