Birds, butterflies and monkeys- just wonderful! Restaurant deck overlooking pool and jungle/forest - amazing! Pool - gorgeous! Cabin - comfortable and homey! Open garden (but still private) bathroom - super amazing! Staff - friendly! Ellen and her partner from Holland - super friendly and helpful. The rooms are actually small cabins scattered around the property which is very lush and teeming with birds and butterflies. We LOVED the cabin with the open bathroom. Nothing like watching a hummingbird sip from a tropical flower while brushing your teeth!

Fantastic place, high standard (furniture, bed, shower etc) with amazing view, room and pool area. The hostess, Marie, took very well care of us, providing a welcome tray with drinks, fruits and pasteries), and an excellent breakfast (best we had in CR). This is such a chill place, the only thing we heard was the Ara parrots flying by. I give this place my highest recommendations.
