Pros:

Le cadre, le personnel, le petit-déjeuner, la piscine, les chambres… Comme vous l’aurez compris, j’ai tout apprécié !

Cons:

Petit bémol concernant l’adresse : elle ne correspond pas du tout à celle indiquée sur Google Maps, et il y a très peu de panneaux pour la trouver. De plus, plusieurs routes privées à péage doivent être empruntées avant d’y accéder.

Come here if you want to experience nature, a clean hotel and extremely nice staff.
Pros:

It was very well kept.
Staff was great.

Cons:

There is no public transportation to Liberia.
The hotel does provide transportation to it.
It is USD65 each way. If you tip the driver USD 5 it is USD 140 for a return trip to Liberia.
It compels you to stay in the hotel.
They do have amazing tours and the hotel is great.
The pool is fantastic.

Wakker worden van de brulapen en gekwetter van talloze vogels maakt dit verblijf bijzonder.
Pros:

De locatie; de lodge ligt dicht bij het Parque Nacional Rincón de la Vieja. Ook kun je vanuit de lodge direct hun eigen trail lopen. Daarnaast was het bezoek van de brulapen in de bomen bij het zwembad erg leuk.

Cons:

Niks te klagen!

Escapada de fin de semana
Pros:

Super divinas las instalaciones, rodeada de naturaleza, las habitaciones espaciosas y cómodas, tienen hamacas, en habitaciones y en la piscina lo que hace aun más acogedor el lugar. Moisés atento, amable y siempre dispuesto a ayudar. Todas las personas que nos atendieron fueron amables y serviciales con nosotros. Nos encantó🫶🏻

Cons:

Que no hubiese parqueo por habitación, sino que son del primero que llegue, lo que genera incomodidad a la hora de llegada con las maletas. De ahí en fuera todo genial.

Pros:

Super expérience au Rinconcito Lodge à Rincón de la Vieja.

Franchement, tout était parfait du début à la fin. C’est un très bel hôtel, en pleine nature, avec une vraie ambiance paisible et dépaysante.

Le staff est adorable, et énorme coup de cœur pour l’équipe du restaurant : efficaces, souriants, attentionnés, vraiment professionnels tout en restant chaleureux. On a pris tous nos repas sur place et tout était excellent. Les cocktails sont très bons, les portions généreuses, et les prix restent raisonnables pour le Costa Rica.

Les chambres sont belles et confortables. Nous avions la dernière chambre tout au fond, la “Mountain Room”, avec vue sur la forêt et les oiseaux partout autour. Réveil au son de la jungle, magnifique.

L’hôtel est aussi idéalement placé pour visiter l’un des plus beaux secteurs du parc national de Rincón de la Vieja, une région qu’on adore pour son côté plus sauvage, authentique et nature.

Petit point à savoir : comme souvent au Costa Rica, la route est assez chaotique. Et les chambres les plus au fond sont vraiment haut perchées. Avec les bagages, mieux vaut prévoir un 4x4 ou monter en voiture. Nous faisions clairement la remontée en voiture.

Mais honnêtement, ça vaut largement le détour. Très calme, belle piscine, super atmosphère… On y reviendra avec grand plaisir.

Cons:

Séjour trop court....
