We just loved everything ! ##### Sorin Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel Mar 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Peaceful Retreat Lucky Bug was a beautiful and peaceful place to stay. The host greeted us warmly as he showed us to our room. The artistic touches in the room and on the grounds mirrored tactfully much of the external natural beauty of the place. The stars were beautiful upon our arrival (which may not be the norm) and the music of nature chorused loudly changing its tune to silence in the middle of the night to a new chorus of birds as the night progressed to day. The balcony of our room was a great place to sit and birdwatch while waiting for breakfast time. The food was fantastic and the view from the opposite side of the pond was also lovely. The service was warm and welcoming. We arrived by the road from La Fortuna after dark. There are no lines on the narrow serpentine road making it a bit of a stressful night drive. By day the same road had many lovely views. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/074BEFEB516989BAFA14FCEC65C9358AB0A1E8091741109886522.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E051285EC8BD79DFAE82F18278F647D1B8215C141741109882111.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5D4A30CC9296C0523A63CBE46F9BEB73E2C0E29A1741109884292.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Daniel Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laurie May 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I was met at the property by Rob, one of the two owners, who showed me to my room. The room was well-appointed and the bathroom was exquisitely decorated in tile and tasteful additions. Rob handed me soap wrapped in leaves from the land. He left as I settled in, but returned later to see if I would like an individual pizza as he and Monica were going out. He returned later with not only the hot and tasty pizza, but also bottle of wine to go with it. This visit was also preceded by travel misfortune. Again, I had no WIFI, and I wasted an hour or two going around in circle in Grecia. Then, when I hit the "highway", I still had no WIFI, so some mis-turns led to a near empty gas tank again. I asked for help from a gentleman walking on the side of the road. The nearest gas station was too far for me to drive with almost no gas. So, this gentleman, Luis, led me to his house, called his friend Fernando to come over, get a gas can, and travel the distance to pick up two gallons of gas. As we waited for him to return, we shared pictures of our families, drank, Coke and ate some of those wonderful Costa Rican cookies. Just as we finished, Fernando came with the gas. He filled the tank, left, and I requested his and Luis' address. I am so impressed with the all Costa Rican people I have met who go out of their ways to be friendly and helpful to me - a total stranger. The hosts of the places I have stayed during this trip have been gracious, thoughtful, and wonderful! ##### Laurie Stayed 1 night in May 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Augusta Feb 18, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Room was fine, scenery spectacular and breakfasts delicious. ##### Augusta Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeff Jan 12, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Neat spot with lots of artistic charm.
