Scott and Denise
Beautiful stay in the “quiet” jungle. We would stay again.
Scott, 1-night trip

A perfect place to stay relax.
Excellent service and gentle personal.
José, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

What a wonderful place! I am so happy I found this place as I was able to enjoy a couple of days here; the service was fantastic as well! If you love being sorely fed by nature, I recommend you stay here; at least for a night.
Nancy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I loved its beautiful location and the great activities offered at the site (e.g., night frog walk). The staff were very friendly and helpful!

As soon as we got out of the car we were taken to see a Tapir! Friendly staff & amazing location

10/10 Exceptional

If you want to see birds and animals, this is the place to be. If you can get cabin #10, you have a great bird tree view.
Monica, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is a nice place to unwind for one or 2 nights. Rustic lodge, pillows and sheets need update. I like the gondola, you can really hear the trucks from the hwy. eventhough they are inside the forest.
Wilma, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Very nice place right next to the hiking trails . The restaurant staff was really nice (especially Carlos). The room was ok but badly soundproof (we heard the neighbor cough). We did the gondolas (tram), it was really beautiful but it’s really not worth the price ($66 US per person). Breakfast was included but only okay.
Jessica, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

You are out in the middle of a National Park. That is going to appeal to some and seem bad to others. There is one gift shop, one restaurant, etc., but I like getting to make friends with the staff and the scenery and unique beauty is what I came for.
Frank, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Literally like camping in the jungle. Amazing experience. We saw so many animals within feet from our cottage. Rooms are very well ventilated with screens so AC is not needed but you need to be mindful that people can easily heard you talking in the neighboring cabins.

8/10 Very good

Basic room in forest. Only seating is on porch. Some windows are glass, others screens. Even being a mile off the main highway, truck engines were louder than most insects. And you can sometimes hear snoring from other rooms. Convenient location if you want to use the tram/zips or hike in the national park up the road. Dining for dinner was pretty good, though only tried vegi pasta and steak. Breakfast was 7:30-9:30 and had several menu options including eggs or pancakes. Birders seemed to find a lot of interesting birds. I only saw a few toucans.
Gary, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This place is so beautiful! If you are looking for a place away from everything , this is it. Rooms are clean, property is well maintained clean staff is so friendly. Some of the things I didn’t care for , was there is no way to get coffee first thing in the morning. Not everyone waits till 730 to get coffee . The other issue I had with the property is that it’s a one way road to get in and out. In the early morning and late at night they had nobody there to let you out. Reception should be there 24/7
Elena, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Lots off green around, but the room was old and nothing inside 1 bed and 2 night table, no A/C a old ceiling fan moving humidity around the room. Even saying it is a Park you could listen to track using their Jacob Brake the whole time day and night. Cracking floor and a toilet you pray before flushing never know the result. And the restaurant forget it they don’t even have a bottle of Vodka to serve you a drink.

Mitten im Regenwald
Tolle Unterkunft mitten im Regenwald. Zimmer ist 1/2 einer Hütte mit Terasse. Großes Bett, kein Kühlschrank. Schöne Parkanlage, nettes Personal. Gute Frühstück im Restaurant wo man auch abends gut essen kann. Zufahrt über eine enge Privatstraße, die keinen Gegenverkehr erlaubt und deshalb per Funk geregelt wird. Angebote wie Führungen, ZIP-Line und Seilbahn sind direkt vor Ort. Seilbahnfahrt ist schön, aber sehr teuer. Wir würden wieder kommen.

Anlage komplett veraltet.

La naturaleza en el lugar es increible. Las personas que trabajan en el hotel son muy amables, conocedoras de la zona y de los animales de la zona, muy interesadas por la experiencia que tengan sus clientes en el lugar, y una muchacha en el restaurante fue particularmente amable con un claro objetivo de satisfaccion de los visitantes. Volveria pero por mas dias.
