Beautiful property, but cottages are in need of some maintenance. The lock on our front door did not work - you could just push it open. I saw the biggest cockroach in my life in the bathroom at night. Rooms were HOT at night and the fan was old and not effective. Pool was maintained but small. Breakfast was wonderful and staff were great. I would not take the hike to the hot springs. The springs are definitely "Natural" not maintained and you cannot go in. I would turn around at the waterfall Hotel is off the beaten path, but again a beautiful property. Its a far drive to any towns, so ensure you bring water and snacks with you - although there are no fridges to store anything

Nice place and friendly host. The lodge was great and we were happy to be able to eat there because after dark at 6:00 pm there is nothing around . The place is not very easy to find. You have to trust your gps.

Enjoyed our stay
Very helping and friendly staff, we enjoyed our stay. Very close to Rincon de la Vieja national park. Downsides: no wifi in the room and bad wall isolation.

Great location and spacious grounds but the place is a bit tired and shabby. Restaurant is OK but not great.

Our individual cabin was a quaint and quiet place to stay on expansive, landscaped grounds with a pool and pond. There was a trail behind the cabins, which eventually leads to a hot spring. We didn't have time to hike the whole trail but what we did was very nice. Fortunately, there was a restaurant on site, because there was no nearby shopping available. We would have enjoyed having some kitchen facilities in the cabins though. There was plenty of room for a small fridge, cooktop and sink. The lodge is near Rincon de la Vieja National Park so was a very convenient place for us to stay and the staff was helpful and friendly.

This is such a unique and wonderful place BUT not for everyone. Location is perfect if you are visiting Rincon de la vieja. We drove for 40 min on gravel roads with big holes to get here. Its in the middle of nowhere so make sure you have everything you need before you get here. There is one restaurant on site and one bar. Compared to the price of this lodge the restaurant is expensive and does not have a great selection but every one are super nice. We would use the restaurant to access internet since there is no internet in the rooms. This place is beautiful but its very basic. No AC the staff are all super accommodating and want you enjoy and have a great time.

Lovely gardens, terrible room
My first impression this hotel was what a beautiful place. The gardens are well kept and the pool looked inviting. However, the word basic comes to mind when you enter your accommodation. There is old paint splashes on the floor. The curtains are flapping about because of the large gaps in the window frames and walls; it's very windy here. No mosquito nets, complimentary water or coffee. The bathroom reminds me of a run down camp site's latrine. The sink moves if you touch it. No toilet roll holder etc. The food in the restaurant is OK and the staff are very friendly and do their best to help. It's worth mentioning, if you don't have your own transport unless you are a walker you are isolated because there is nothing close by.

4/10 Fair

We decided to go for a hike to the waterfall and to the sulphur pool. It was a 4 km hike. The waterfall was small and the sulphur pool was not well-maintained. When we arrived back at the lodge, we noticed that we had ticks all over our bodies. We thought we had removed them off and then went to an adventure park with Sulphur pools and mud bath. When we came back to the lodge, we found even more ticks on us. The room was OK but the beds were very uncomfortable and there was no air-conditioning which was fine because there was a fan. Unfortunately, the fan was very loud. The staff were very friendly, which was a plus. The burger I had was not very good. There wasn’t enough staff. There was one bartender that was going between the bar and the restaurant. The grounds were kept up well. Unfortunately, I probably wouldn’t stay there again, but that was just me.

Beautiful grounds and a swimming pool. Traditional food options were delicious, as well as the included breakfast. Nice hike from the property but watch out for ticks. You do have to pay $3 USD to pass through the park to get to the hotel so have some USD or Colones. Overall a beautiful spot with more rustic rooms.

Beautiful property, laid back, beautifully simple. The food is not very good, I recommend to eat at nearby restaurant. The property and staff make it a nice place to unwind and savor nature and simplicity.

Not for the faint of heart!
The reviews that call this place basic or rustic really aren’t kidding! My expectations were fairly low and I was still unpleasantly surprised. It’s not awful but really it’s like cabin camping and also somewhat run-down. On the upside, it was clean, hot water shower, and the breakfast was good. Other meals were so-so. Downsides include cold water only in sink, corrugated metal roof and a general state of disrepair. Worst part was the power went out one night and they were totally unprepared for this—no back up lighting anywhere (including restaurant), no candles, lanterns or flashlights for guests to use. If we hadn’t packed a small flashlight we would have been in total darkness in our cabin. I had a candle but they had no matches! Very dark and twisty walkways from restaurant to cabins. This seemed very dangerous and irresponsible to me. No one took charge and we were on our own. I do have to say the young women staffing the place were trying their best and one was accommodating with food (toast and papaya all day!) when my husband was under the weather. And regarding the weather, there are extremely strong winds here at certain times and the flimsiness of the cabins made this very nerve-wracking. Couldn’t sleep for fear of trees falling on us.
