The perfect last night in Costa Rica
We loved our stay in the Poas volcano lodge. The lodge and room were cosy, a real home from home, with a British feel to it (the owners are English). Everything was very clean. There are lots of nice touches, such as the library and games room, and some good trails to walk around the farm. The volcano was a good half hour drive away and was shrouded in cloud when we stayed, but we so enjoyed our visit to the lodge we didn't mind too much! The waterfall gardens are only 10 mins away and are well worth a visit. We had a lovely and reasonably priced (for Costa Rica) dinner in the restaurant with charming service. Breakfast the next morning was a little slow, and we had to forego the hot dish as we had an 8am volcano booking, so I would recommend booking the National Park for 8.30am instead if you want a full breakfast beforehand. Would definitely recommend and would stay here if in the area again. It's less than an hour's drive from the airport so the perfect final night option and much nicer than staying in San Jose.
