29 Apr 2019
This is a lovely place, but I can't give it a great review because on the day we checked-in no one was available at the hotel to answer the phone. Answering the phone when you have guest traveling from out of country, and to a very remote location is standard basic custom service. For whatever reason we could not find our email confirmation the day we were scheduled to arrive and we called and called for 5 hours straight on a Saturday between 12noon-5pm and no one answered the phone. Because we were traveling 5 hours by car to an extremely remote location and could not confirm our stay we were forced to book another hotel that night. We finally received an email in the evening from the owner, and we were able to check in the next day, but the owner herself directed her staff not to give us any discount for the inconvenience we experienced trying to check-in to the hotel. The staff was absolutely lovely, but the owner should know better that if you want to charge $1000 a night and be a 5-star hotel you have to give 5-star customer service which means answering the phone on the day guests check in. Next time I travel to this remote area of Osa I will visit LagunaVista Villas or Lapis Rios resort.

Very Special Place
This resort provides an authentic "forest" experience while at the same time making sure all one's needs are taken care of. Dining is surprisingly good (my husband is a gourmet chef so he should know) as is the service! We couldn't ask for more but got it thanks to the friendliness of the owners. They are ever present and offer great advice (as well as conversation) for a fulfilling experience.
We were sincerely sad to leave and hope to return in the future...

Im Paradies
Auch wenn der Weg zur Lodge echt anstrengend ist, es lohnt sich!! Man wird sehr herzlich willkommen geheißen, das Team ist großartig und die Natur paradiesisch. Der Pool ist super, der Strand einsam und der Regenwald voller exotischer Tiere!
