We loved our stay in this rustic but comfortable lodge located in the Costa Rican wilderness. The staff are lively and the food excellent. Outstanding bird watching as well.

Sehr schöne abgelegene Lodge. Tolle Möglichkeit Aras und viele weitere Tiere zu beobachten. Leckeres Essen.

Der Bungalow war zweckmäßig eingerichtet. Wir hatten zusätzlich zum Queenbett noch zwei Einzelbetten. Die Matratzen waren generell nicht sehr bequem. Bei einem Einzelbett war diese extrem durchgelegen. Es war sehr warm, da es nur einen Deckenventilator sowie einen zusätzlichen Standventilator gab. Die Fenster konnten nicht richtig geschlossen werden und es waren auch teilweise die Fliegengitter kaputt. Wir haben keine Tour gebucht. Wir sind zum Wasserfall gewandert. Hier ist uns aufgefallen, dass einige Geländer kaputt waren, welche dringend mal repariert werden müsste. Das Essen war leider nicht so gut. Es hat geschmacklich immer etwas gefehlt und z. B. das Huhn war leider viel zu trocken. Es gab den ganzen Tag über die Möglichkeit Wasser und Kaffee zu trinken, wobei der Kaffee leider ab Mittag bereits lauwarm war. Espresso gab es leider nicht.
