This was an absolute gem. Plenty space for kids to run/play, hot springs, gorgeous river stream. We only had one morning, but would’ve easily stayed for a couple nights if we didn’t have our next stop scheduled! Totally recommend this place - be prepared as this is more like a high-end “glamping”. Plenty beds and sleeping accommodations. Very respectful and accommodating staff. ##### Rajesh Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### kerry Dec 20, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, amenities The cabins were good, and everything you’d expect for a cabin, except it’s very very loud with the tin roof when it rains.

Room has a safe, desk, and comfortable clothing storage. Everything was clean and the cleaners available throughout the day. Unfortunately none of the rooms have windows that can be opened so there is always the a/c smell. ##### Ruth Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jan 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### This beautiful location is a must!

We received a confirmation email the day before we were to arrive, but when we arrived, they had no space for us. They were apologetic, but it still left us in a huge bind late at night in the rain. We found another spot to stay for the night and returned the next day. They gave us a free dinner in exchange for the inconvenience. The space is lovely. The cabins are cozy. Everything is spotless. My main frustration is that they are not honest in their pricing. There are two different "menus." One for Costa Rican visitors and one for everyone else. I was charged $40 more for a massage. When I questioned it and pointed it out on the price list, there was considerable disagreement among the staff, which was awkward but still resulted in my paying more. The staff encouraged us to dine using the standard, typical "buffet" meal, indicating that it would be easier and less expensive after we reviewed the menu. The "buffet" price was not listed on the menu. When we went to pay, the server needed to check the price. When she returned, we were shocked at how exorbitant it was. We questioned whether it was correct. She apologized and said yes. Even though the space was lovely, we left feeling like we had been taken advantage of and disrespected. ##### SARAH Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Michael Jan 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service If I had been paying less I would have given higher rating. But for the price I paid over New Years, it was not the best value. Cabins have tin roofs that are very loud when it rains, and without a solid structure and no windows, you can hear every sound from cabins next door. Still was charming and staff was very friendly. ##### Michael Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Carin Jul 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Beautifully enjoyable and rustic The area was beautiful, the amenities great and the cabin was very nice. There were a couple of things that made the stay less comfortable than it should have been. 1\. There was not kleenex nor paper towels and the toilet paper was so thin it basically fell apart as you pulled it off the roll. It made any kind of wiping (either of body parts or of cleaning) hard to do. We did not want to use the towels/hand towels for those things - and did not have the number of towels we would have needed to do that anyway. 2\. There were no top sheets on the beds, only a spread. There was one top sheet in the closet, but our son was with us, so we needed two. All in all it was a good place to stay and the area was great! Being from the US, we probably won't visit again because we like to experience different cultures and countries each time we vacation. ##### Carin Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joseph Mar 30, 2026 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It's out there from the basic touristy stuff so you are not at the Ritz but that is what you come here for. To get away and live with the land. Experience Costa. Close enough to Blue Falls, which should be on everyone's list. Property is what you imagine living in the Jungle would be like. Hear the Monkeys in the morning. The river rushing through the property. Only negative was that me and some of my group wanted to do the zipline, canyoning experience and there was a miscommunication on how to make that happen and we missed out on that... book it right away so they can do what they need to do to make it happen... don't wait until the night before to book I guess. Not a big deal, you should just know if that is on your list so you don't miss out. ##### Joseph Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2026 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Johanna Dec 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities This location is in the middle of a forest at the end of a road. Very secluded, it is a local CR nature destination rather than a tourist area. We heard howler monkeys several mornings, saw an armadillo running by our cabin, & saw tons of hummingbirds. The hot springs are warm, at abt 100 deg F rather than Hot. The cool pools are crystal clear. Food in the restaurant is reasonable, good, plentiful & the breakfasts are outstanding. Due to its location it is probably better for someone with transport. The staff found us a local ride to get to a nearby, excellent butterfly garden & visit Venecia. It rained a lot while we visited, so be prepared for humidity! There's a YouTube video about their zipline & canyon activities. There are nets on windows & very few bugs. Lovely hammocks and chairs on the Morpho cabin porches. No utensils in the kitchens, but had a nice big frig. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8a699699-e5f7-45e1-bd9c-2ea21c03d293-1765916986349.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8619b3b2-c7bd-4796-9633-7a279eafd25e-1765916995008.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/cb26514e-14e1-404e-b5ae-80b53338e890-1765916994401.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d9d28f0d-9d58-43df-b042-4a9c280ddeae-1765916995310.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Johanna Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### gretty Jan 3, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Amazing stay! ##### gretty Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laima Feb 6, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Nice staff ##### Laima Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sara Nov 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Gorgeous setting! ##### Sara Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Danielle Aug 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Restaurant had a variety of delicious options, room was as advertised, parking available right outside your cabin ##### Danielle Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Zhukova Apr 20, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great place for hot springs, nice restaurant in the property, the lodge had so many beds and was clean. ##### Zhukova Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heather Apr 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We spent 6 nights here.
