Cottages in Cantón Guácimo

This hotel is second to none. There is only 5 rooms in the entire grounds, this means within minutes the attentive staff know your name and are doing everything they can for you. The service is excellent, the food excellent and the rooms are great. Loved the outdoor shower and glass toilet. We did an incredible day trip with Denis to waterfalls on horse back. Highly recommend the entire experience.

Fantastic pool to use Restaurant very good too

One of the very few clean and organised accommodation options in the area.

An unforgettable experience at once of the most beautiful places we have stayed at. Guides were lots of fun and the lodge was run seamlessly.

This is a great stopover hotel if you are travelling south. The food and service is good and they are trying really hard to build a business. Would definitely go back.

I arrived after hours due to a delayed flight and the staff waited for me to arrive. I can’t thank them enough. Great location, amazing views - would stay again thank you

Staff were excellent especially Kaylor and the team, very warm and helpful with organising our tours. Food options also very good and place is quiet and in the middle of nature. Accomodation is ok, little bit rustic but then it is an eco lodge and you paying for seclusion and to be close to wildlife. Would recommend overall

Location was perfect for spotting birds and doing short (10-30 minutes) drives to other good birding locations. We booked the room with balcony. The room was clean and the bed was good. Patrica is the lady that manages everything. She also cooked great meals for us. So please order the lunch and dinner also there. We are very happy and enjoyed our stay. Definitely recommended!

Good value

The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean, the food excellent and the whole atmosphere was very good. We particularly enjoyed walking in the hotel grounds and listening to the amazing birdsong.

Awesome… A great welcome from the host and shown to the lodge which was wonderful. The secret garden is way up in the mountains overlooking Cartago and had it not been cloudy we would have seen a spectacular sun set, unfortunately we didn’t, but the cloud did ease off for a spectacular view of Cartago sparkling in the night far below our lodge. Some extras left in the lodge for those caught out, a couple of long hoodies and jackets for when it’s cold which was a wonderful touch. Breakfast was...

As soon as we got out of the car we were taken to see a Tapir! Friendly staff & amazing location

Lovely position on an estate with views of the countyside away from traffic. Abundant birdlife. Enjoyed the stay.

This is a great place to stay if you enjoy tranquility, scenery and wildlife. Not great if you prefer a lively night scene. We ate at the restaurant every night because the food was so good but also because the drive back down the valley to the village was rather daunting in the dark. Jose, the chef/owner serves up fresh water fish, locally caught in a variety of imaginative ways but he also serves meat and vegetarian options (he is also a very good photographer and enjoys sharing his photos of...

The room was huge, with a vast en suite and good facilities. It was spotless. The staff were friendly and professional all the time. So helpful. The restaurant had the most wonderful ambience, being semi open air, with a stupendous wire. Great food at every meal.

Staff were so helpful and friendly. They could not do enough to make our visit a pleasure

A luxurious, well-placed resort with very friendly and attentive staff. The ladies on reception were fab, as were the restaurant staff and the tour guides. The wildlife in the grounds is exceptional, and the design and decor of Mawamba is flawless. Loved it.
