"This was our second stay at Lost Iguana and it was just as wonderful as the first time. Our room was very spacious, and we especially loved the outdoor shower and the incredible view. The rooms feel like you’re staying on a private property while still enjoying all the amenities of a great hotel. We traveled with our three children and found it very family-friendly. The restaurants have plenty of food options for kids for both breakfast, lunch, and dinner and they especially loved the pool area. The location is also fantastic—close to many La Fortuna activities while still feeling quiet and secluded. We would absolutely stay here again."

"Nice little lodge, perfect for our first day in Costa Rica! Good value, good food, nice pool."

"This place was amazing! The services that the host provided were great. The included breakfast was delicious and a great way to start our day. Patrick was so helpful with our excursions. This is by far the best VRBO that I've ever stayed at. We hope to return again sometime."

"Pros: The view from the panoramic chalet was awesome! The staff was great, the food was good, water pressure good, and in general the room was very nice. The location was great for me as I’m a wildlife photographer and was able to roam the grounds with very little to no people around. I saw a plethora of birds, peccaries, coatis and some capuchin monkeys as well. Cons: This place is a little dated. I’m sure it was beautiful in its heyday, however that time has passed. The lighting in the room was not very bright (minus the lights over the bathroom sink, they were fine) All in all, for the price I paid, I was satisfied. "

"Our stay at Rio Perdido Hot Springs Resort was exceptional from start to finish. The property itself is stunning. The architecture blends beautifully into the surrounding jungle, and the individual rooms tucked into the forest make the whole experience feel private, peaceful, and immersive in nature. The thermal river and hot springs were incredible. Having three different pools at varying temperatures was perfect—you could move between them depending on how hot you wanted the soak. Sitting in those pools surrounded by the canyon and forest was one of the most relaxing experiences of our trip. The spa massage was also outstanding. After a day of exploring the property and soaking in the springs, it was the perfect way to unwind. Food at the restaurant was another highlight. Every meal was excellent—fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. It’s rare to find a resort where the food consistently matches the quality of the setting, but Rio Perdido definitely delivers. Overall, Rio Perdido strikes a rare balance: luxury accommodations, incredible natural surroundings, and a truly relaxing atmosphere. If you’re visiting Costa Rica and want something unique and memorable, this place is absolutely worth the stay."

"Francisco is the best host, we had an excellent stay!"

"Loved our honeymoon stay here! Perfect home base for a week of exploring the area. Loved the pool and especially loved the amazing generous and delicious free breakfast every morning! The only issue we had were tiny ants in our room that made a few surfaces unusable, and we had to be very cautious not to prepare food in the room. But we understand that’s normal in the jungle so we weren’t bothered. "

"The minibar was okay. We did not use the laundry service. Disappointed that there’s no restaurant on site."

"What a hidden gem. The views were incredible and the staff was super friendly and helpful in terms of directing us to places to explore. We d highly recommend this lodge. "
