This was beautiful, and the people were great. Just didn't have a lot of do outside walking around and seeing the Volcano, Coffee Tour and La Paz. This could be done in 1 or 2 nights tops.

Wow!!! This hotel is more than what we all had expected! It’s clean! I got a garden view room with my 2 boys. It was the cutest room! It was so clean and everything you need is in the room. We went on a little hike with my 2 boys while we were there. They have umbrella available. They have boots available for me AND my boys. They were at the beautiful green house. I cannot recommend more about this hotel! We would def return!

Beautiful accommodations - up to date, spacious room, large bathroom. The grounds were very attractive and well kept. Dining was very good which is nice since the lodge is a bit out of the way from other options. Good location - not too far from San Jose and close to the Poas Volcano National Park and not far from the La Paz Waterfalls.
