Good food and some very nice forest trails to walk. Great if you want to stay away from the masses and stay in the jungle with comfort.

Do not miss this! A night in a tree house! It sounded exotic, unique. It sure was! I wish we stayed longer!! You are given a flashlight as this is truly in the rainforrest! Each house is separate from the others, so very quiet. The hammock on the back deck fantastic. There are mosquito nettings for each bed, though we didn't see any mosquitos when we were there. Rain at night sounds heavenly on the roof. So peaceful! You have a great welcome when you arrive, and they are very helpful! And breakfast is wonderful!!! I will absolutely stay again on my next trip to Costa Rica!!!

La Tigra was a delightful experience, but one must be prepared to be somewhat isolated. After all, this is an eco-lodge--not a resort or even a hotel. Personally, we loved the "tree fort" feel of our bungalow. Keep in mind that you are basically exposed except for thin tarps, see-through curtains and mosquito netting, so all the sounds of the rain on the tin roof and the forest are surrounding you. Nonetheless, we felt safe and slept soundly. Our bungalow had two light bulbs and one bathroom outlet. So, be prepared to feel like you're "glamping." The architecture of these structures if simply marvelous! It's obvious every effort is made to blend in to the ecology around, even down to the building materials themselves. And everything seems well maintained. But it comes with some sacrifice. You won't have WiFi in your rooms--you'll have to go to the reception area. And your hot water seems dependent on how much sun has recently heated it. Be sure to bring an umbrella, raincoat and we recommend a headlamp for exploring at night. Also, expect to feel a bit isolated. The drive down the mountain is an 8-10 minute effort. You may have to drive a few km to find a tienda or "soda." On the other hand, the food at the lodge is fantastic! If you arrive by car, consider renting an SUV with at least all-wheel drive. We had a small, front-wheel drive car. It made it, but we felt a little overpowered by the rugged terrain. Special thanks to Wendy and Keiry. :)

Rustikale Unterkunft im Regenwald. Sehr sauber, sehr freundliches Personal. Kurzweilige Nachtwanderung inklusive. Das landestypische Frühstück und Abendessen war sehr lecker.

Staff was wonderful. Only ate breakfast but it was good. Stayed for two nights. The shower didn’t work the second night, no hot water. Grounds weren’t as beautiful as advertised and didn’t see any animals as advertised. Picked this place specifically for that reason. The room itself was clean and not as in the tree tops as the pictures on their website show but we were able to sleep with it wide open which was nice.

It’s a nice place if one wants to experience camping with the comfort of clean bathrooms, safety and still enjoy the wilderness. Good vegetarian pasta options and breakfast

Schöne Lodge, Restaurant-Preise echt ins Ordnung bei guter Qualität! Dusche nur ein Rinnsal mit kaltem Wasser, da mit Solar betrieben. Leider kann man vor Ort nicht so viel machen: Die trails sind schnell abgelaufen. Die Nachtwanderung war sehr schön. Dann gibts noch einen Kochkurs und die Möglichkeit einen Baum zu pflanzen (beides sehr teuer). Für alles andere muss man im Prinzip nach La Fortuna (1 Std Fahrtzeit)

Très bel endroit dans la nature avec la tranquillité. Personnel très gentil et offrant un excellent service. Nous avons pu observer plusieurs oiseaux, grenouilles et tortues sur le site. Se situe à 45 min en auto de La fortuna. Belle cabine!. Effectivement je recommande un VUS pour utiliser le chemin privé pour se rendre.

Such a beautiful place!!! Very peaceful and quite. Delicious food, wonderful staff. I would only request that they improve the living conditions of the chickens they have, that provide the eggs for breakfast every morning. Other than that, great, awesome, wonderful experience. Would definitely recommend.
