The Peace Lodge is a unique experience unlike traditional hotel resorts. Sitting high on the mountain (volcano in the near distance) among the clouds with beautiful grounds, waterfall hikes and access to native animal and bird experiences. Very nature based and eco friendly. Staff was exceptional. Very quiet and peaceful.

They had amazing access to wildlife. We had been travelingb in Costa Rica for 2 weeks and had not gotten close enough to a Toucan or Sloth for a good photo. We saw both and so many more birds and animals. The waterfalls were beautiful too!

Most beautiful place in costa rica

The service was so personal it felt like we were part of their family. We were greeted by friendly staff who immediately took our bags while we checked in. We received private tours to the volcano and waterfalls which are amazing. We got to see and feed some amazing animals. The guides are very knowledgeable and friendly. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable. The views from the room are breathtaking. The lodge is pricey but worth every bit of it. The food the atmosphere all the activities that they offer make this lodge a one of a kind. We spent two weeks and traveled from the Caribbean to the pacific and this was our most favorite place. Would definitely come back

This Property was Amazing! The hot tubs in the apartment were very nice to have with the cool climate, the fishing posd was very fun with nice sized trout. Feeding the animals, this is a must to get a close look at Sloth, hummingbirds, and Tucans. The outside hot tubs were very unique and in Very Beautiful spots! The only part that I didnt care the most for personally, was the dinner. Going to different countries, I love to have the local cuisines, the dinner was an expensive meal, it was good, but i just like local foods. I would still give what they had a 5 star rating, the waiters were attentive, and the food was out in a Very timely manner!

This was our second time at the Peace Lodge and we loved it just as much as the first time. The lodge is beautiful and the rooms are incredible. Hot tub on the balcony? Yes please! Each and every staff member went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. Special thanks to Pablo, Michael, Daniel and Jose who went above and beyond to make us happy. We could not have had a better experience. The area is breathtaking and the weather, while unpredictable, was a nice break from the heat of Florida. We brought our two kids (10 and 13) and they enjoyed the animal sanctuary many times. We visited the animals every day, hiked to the waterfalls, and even arranged to visit the Poas volcano with a private tour guide. The food was amazing and beautifully plated each time. If you can, catch a trout in the pond and they will cook it for you right there and then! Please take advantage of the animal tours, the restaurants and even the gift shop. We can't wait to come back and see our "friends."

The Peace Lodge is a tranquil escape. There are not very many rooms, so the grounds are quiet. You get the opportunity to walk through the animal sanctuary on the grounds. The resort dog Rusty was very friendly and a welcome sight. The menus were on the expensive side and some more affordable options would be welcome, but the quality of the food was excellent.
