Ecolirios Boutique Hotel & Villas

10/10 Excellent

"This property is VERY unique!! It is quite an experience, even just to stay a night, but I would recommend at least 2-3 nights minimum to explore the options they have available. I picked this as a sort of halfway point to stay 1 night between SJO & Puerto Viejo, on the Caribbean coast. But it was a phenomenal experience & we wished we had booked at least 1 more night, if not more. The cabins are very secluded, but well maintained. The grounds are extensive and amazing!! The staff are unbelievably helpful & friendly too!! The only downside is that you absolutely need 4x4 to get there. Don’t believe the people that say you don’t need it. You need to drive up & down steep grades that do get rushing water over them, not only to location, but also to your cabin. The only sounds were birds & frogs & water - it was pure nature to be easily enjoyed from the patio of your cabin. Hammock, sitting chairs w/ fire pit, glass encased cabins, open air rain faucet showers, open air dining & reception, immaculate grounds with animals… just amazing! It was a bit too rainy for us to walk down to the natural spring pools, but waterfalls galore! Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! Gracias!! Food & drinks were amazing as well! FRESH!!! 4x4 and guts to get you there, but the rest is heaven! So many thanks to our staff!! (Get whatsapp for CR, period btw! You need it.)"

Pacuare Mountain Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"I am so thrilled we booked two days here. I was not certain about it but it is such a beautiful location. The “newish” owners are so kind and welcoming. Armando, the everything guy, was our favorite CR person! He was so kind and helped with my rudimentary Spanish. My kids loved it here as well. It is not luxury, so if that is what you are looking for, this is not your place. If a great value and beautiful location and good food is what you are looking for, I highly recommend. Cabin was clean and the fan kept it cool enough. Food was delicious. Pool is small but kids jumped in to cool off after a day of rafting on the Pacuare River. Exploring the massive property was a fun way to explore CR. We even saw a beautiful rainbow over the valley. Road to get there is a lot bumpy, curvy and hilly but worth the drive. I would not hesitate to stay here again! We loved our time here."

Guayabo Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing place and incredible view to the mountains, an as a birdwatcher amazing place for birdwatching. In 2 days around 70 different species…"

Pacuare Lodge by Böëna

10/10 Excellent

"If you want ultimate rainforest luxury and top level service you should stay here. Not to be missed. Raft in and out via the Pacuare river and be completely enveloped by the forest and river in the middle of nowhere while having high level meals breakfast, lunch and dinner, incredible adventure programs like zip lining through the canopy and repelling down little waterfall. Seriously. 1000% The food was top tier. The service was thoughtful and personal. The staff is amazing. And they have great wifi. In the middle of nowhere. Deep jungle. The rafting is world class. I had a Linda vista villa and it was an absurd amount of space and privacy with a personal plunge pool. Come back from dinner and your lights are on, fan going and curtains drawn. Seriously, stay here. I'm coming back again someday."
