10/10 would recommend if you are looking for a unique experience of staying right in the rainforest, at a beautiful
Pros:

Absolutely everything.
The staff were incredible - kind, fun, accommodating and knowledgeable about the area.
The hotel itself was beautiful and we took advantage of all the amenities (pool, hot tub, gym, spa, night hike, cafe, restaurants, games room etc).
To be right in the rainforest was so cool - they have well curated hiking trails right out of the property, with beautiful trees, access to the river etc.
Loved the free breakfast as well. They had fresh green and orange juices, fresh fruit, amazing omelettes etc.

Cons:

Nothing.

Would definitely return for the area and facilities and would plan to eat out and not at the restaurants.
Pros:

Rooms and property were beautiful. Loved the pool and the location.

Cons:

Food options are limited, very pricey and not quite up to par with the good food in the area that’s much cheaper.

Vivemos um sonho no Hideaway
Pros:

Podemos dizer tranquilamente que vivemos momentos inesquecíveis do hotel. Fomos para comemorar nosso aniversário de casamento, e foi a melhor escolha que fizemos. O staff foi tão atencioso com tudo, transformaram nosso dia em um dos mais incríveis de nossas vidas. Dylan, Josué, Paulo e absolutamente todos que nos atenderam fizeram de tudo para transformar nossa experiência em momentos de paz e felicidade. Bom, falando do hotel em si, parece um sonho. O quarto é amplo, limpo, a vista é de tirar o fôlego. A trilha dentro do hotel chega no Rio Celeste - esse sim dispensa comentários. Fizemos uma trilha guiada no Parque Tenório com a agência indicada pelo hotel e, novamente, tudo fantástico. Um dos melhores guias que já conhecemos. Voltaríamos com toda a certeza para a Costa Rica e, claro, para ver nossos amigos do Hideaway novamente!!
