Un havre de paix
Pros:

L’accueil des hôtes, le jus de bienvenue, le cadre exceptionnel non loin de l’entrée du parc national, au calme en pleine nature, la propreté du logement, les meilleurs smoothies du voyage jusqu’à maintenant !

Cons:

La pluie 😅 et le chant des grenouilles était tellement fort que ma mère a dû dormir avec des boules quies. Mis à part ça, rien à redire.

Pros:

An amazing stay!!!
The location is ideal: next to Tenorio Park.
The staff is very friendly. The nighttime frog-spotting excursion with David will remain one of my best memories of Costa Rica

A beautiful surprise
Pros:

I cannot rave enough about this property; it was such a beautiful surprise. We stayed for two nights in one of the three private cabins operated by David and Betty, who were incredibly warm and hospitable. They have created a true paradise tucked away in the Rio Celeste community. It's only a 5 minute drive from Tenorio National Park (Ask for Don Miguel for a guide)
The cabins were spotless, and the bathrooms were excellent with good towels. In addition the bed and pillows were very comfortable. We also highly recommend the on-site Tilapia Restaurant. We had both breakfast and dinner there—the food was delicious, but the coffee was easily the best we had during our nine-day trip! As two female travelers, we felt completely safe and welcomed. The horseback ride down to the creek was a highlight of our vacation.

Cons:

Nothing!

Cabana nur über Gras-Matschweg erreichbar, Bisse inklusive
Pros:

Wir kamen bei Dunkelheit an und es regnete. Der Schotter-Parkplatz hatte grosse Pfützen. Zugang zur Cabana nur über schmalem, dunklem Gras-Matsch Weg am See entlang, wo Pflanzen reinhängen. Unmöglich Koffer zur Cabana zu tragen, darum nur Nötigstes rausgenommen. Cabana selbst sauber, gutes Wifi und Kühlschrank. Brauchten lange um herauszufinden, wie heisses Duschwasser erzeugt wird - dafür gibts ausgiebige Anleitung zum richtigen Händewaschen. Es regnete die ganze Nacht auf das Wellblechdach. Die Türverriegelung ist ungewöhnlich und die Eingangstüre verzogen und schliesst nicht richtig. Trotz der eingeklemmten Moskito-Bettnetze, wo keine Mücke durchkonnte, waren wir am nächsten Morgen mit juckenden roten Flecken und Bissen übersät (sicher 20 pro Person).
Das Frühstück war in Ordnung. Es wird nur spanisch gesprochen, aber Mitarbeiterinnen waren freundlich. Wir würden nicht mehr hier buchen.

Gerne wieder
Pros:

Schöne, saubere Häuschen inmitten einer Teichanlage. Abends Führungen zum Fröschesuchen. Essen im Restaurant sehr gut, unbedingt eigene Fische probieren. Nur 2min zum Nationalpark. Wer am Morgen gleich da ist, ist meistens fast allein unterwegs.
Reitausflüge können auch gemacht werden. Waren 2 Nächte da, was sich lohnt. Badestelle im blauen Rio Celeste unter Brücke auch nur ein paar min mit dem Auto. Absolut empfehlenswert, nette Gastgeber.

Cons:

Hat alles gepasst

Pros:

Tout est très bien. Peut-être que la quantité de nourriture au restaurant est un peu juste. La carte ViSA passe très difficilement.

Cons:

Il n’y avait ni transat, ni hamac confortable pour se prélasser ou lire.

Rustic stay a minutes from the Tenorio national park.
Pros:

The setting in nature with ponds, rolling hills and the view to the Tenorio volcano, minutes from the national park. My wife and I also like rustic cabins. Ours has a nice corridor to be outside the cabin but under roof. The owners and staff are very nice and service oriented.
