Really lovely property!
Pros:

Lovely and beautiful, very cool to walk in the trails around the forest, loved having our room and patio right on the river. Great pool.

A little on the expensive side after paying for room and breakfast.

Pros:

El lugar es muy bueno para avistamiento de aves, la decoración es interesante, senderos limpios y fácil de recorrer. La ubicación es excelente para desplazarse a distintas reservas

Cons:

Pese a que la persona que nos atendió durante el check-in fue muy atenta era prácticamente la única persona en el lugar, por lo que la atención se sintió muy dispersa (muchas funciones para una sola persona)

Frogs paradise
Pros:

A nice buffet restaurant with a great selection of food, they even accommodated my gluten intolerance.
We saw some frogs and bats.

Cons:

The property is not very well maintained. Large parts of it are not longer accessible and run down.
The rooms are very basic. There are not many places nearby as the location is somewhat remote.
Large group of people arriving by buses so not very peaceful experience despite the location.

Tolle Unterkunft trotz großer Gruppen
Pros:

Immer wieder toll!

Cons:

Immer wieder große Gruppen, aber man bemüht sich sehr auch um Einzelpersonen.

Es wäre schön, wenn der Froschgarten “wiederbelebt” würde

Eine tolle Unterkunft in der Nähe des tiefen Regenwaldes (Tirimbina), sehr sauber, viele Tiere
Pros:

Wir fanden die Unterkunft und die Lage super. Wir haben in der Anlage frei hüpfend alle möglichen Frösche gesehen, Kaimane, Eidechsen, eine Menge schöne bunte (grüne oder blau glitzernde) Vögel, Kolibris, außerhalb ein Faultier. Es ist eine Lodge, kein Hotel, aber sauberer als manches Hotel, in dem ich bisher war. Sehr sauber, was ich sehr wichtig finde. Auch die Betten waren topp! Das Frühstück war ok bis sehr gut, der Kaffee super. Für uns die beste Unterkunft bei unserem Trip durch Costa Rica. Der Besuch des nahegelegenen Nationalpark Tirimbina (krasse Hängebrücke) hat uns gut gefallen. Wir hätten gerne am Abendessen in der Lodge gegessen, da die Küche echt ok war, aber leider war eine große Gruppe da (die sich gut benommen hatte) und so aßen wir nur kurz, da wir Wartezeiten vermeiden wollten.

Cons:

Obwohl das Frühstück für Kinder unter 12 Jahren um 50 Prozent reduziert ist, wurde für unser elfjähriges Kind der volle Preis berechnet. Außerdem stand am Abreisetag ein Frühstück für sieben Personen auf der Rechnung, das wir gar nicht in Anspruch genommen hatten.
Die Dame an der Rezeption bat mich, die Rechnung genau zu prüfen und Bescheid zu sagen, falls etwas nicht stimmt. Es kann also gut ein Versehen gewesen sein. Als ich die Punkte angesprochen habe, wurde alles sofort korrigiert.
Trotzdem waren es insgesamt etwas viele Fehler bei der Abrechnung. Es ging um überschaubare Beträge, und ohne diese Punkte hätte ich die volle Punktzahl vergeben. Wahrscheinlich war es einfach ein Versehen, aber da es mehr als zwei Fehler zu meinen Ungunsten waren, gibt es hier "nur" neun Punkte. Aber die sehr verdient.

Excellent option
Pros:

I loved the surrounding areas and the hotel in general. I think is a great and safe place to stay to enjoy in the hotel and near by activities like visiting Arenal Volcano and 100s of other activities

Je le recommande sans aucune hésitation !
Pros:

Il est situé à l’écart dans une « finca » avec une petite réserve naturelle. On peut même se baigner dans la rivière un peu plus bas.

Cons:

Rien

Ok for a short stop. Good birds.
Pros:

Came here mainly for birding. Had a lovely afternoon just sitting at the bird feeders. We did see some cool birds in there estate which was memorable and with no regrets we came here. (Jacamar, Jacobin, Kingfisher) It was not the most comfortable sleep but maybe due to the heat. Air con was good in the room but the bedding linens are fairly old. We also had a lot of critters in our room that we had “fun”getting rid of, mainly a gigantic crockoach and some fancy beetle that kept bouncing around in the room. Little lizards too, despite that all windows and doors were closed. Buffet meals and food was just average. We were hoping to see the frogs and the staff showed us where it was but there weren’t any activities.
