San José Province Holidays

If you want ultimate rainforest luxury and top level service you should stay here. Not to be missed. Raft in and out via the Pacuare river and be completely enveloped by the forest and river in the middle of nowhere while having high level meals breakfast, lunch and dinner, incredible adventure programs like zip lining through the canopy and repelling down little waterfall. Seriously. 1000% The food was top tier. The service was thoughtful and personal. The staff is amazing. And they have great wifi. In the middle of nowhere. Deep jungle. The rafting is world class. I had a Linda vista villa and it was an absurd amount of space and privacy with a personal plunge pool. Come back from dinner and your lights are on, fan going and curtains drawn. Seriously, stay here. I'm coming back again someday.

If you want to be right in the middle of nature and wildlife this is the place to go. Most of the resort is raised up into the treetops so you can be eye level with creatures you'd usually only see way above you from the ground. The included hikes and birdwatching were wonderful with very knowledgeable and passionate guides. We also arranged a day trip to Corcovado by boat through the lodge in advance, seems pricey at first but was well worth it. Over the course of a week we saw sloths (lodge & Corcovado), monkeys (everywhere), tapirs (Corcovado), ant eaters (lodge and Corcovado), coatis (lodge), frogs and lizards (lodge) and so many different birds (everywhere). We chose a forest bungalow room which is just screened in from the outside. I was a bit worried the lack of AC might make it too hot to sleep, but at the end of April the fans in the room were enough to keep us comfortable over night. No need for alarm clocks, the howler monkeys will get you up every day. Overall a fantastic nature focused lodge that combines the ability to relax with adventure.

I don’t know where to start!! The resort is beautiful! The entire staff was accommodating and excited to be of service. From the moment I pulled out n front of the door Luis was kind and exceptional. Brandon and Dillon handled the reservation and welcome package. Oscar the kitchen/restaurant manager made the comfortable and he made sure every room service order was of high standard. This is not a resort, it should be labeled a retreat. Beautiful waterfalls sprawl the property. There are trails to explore all over. Last but not least, this place is best known for for its renown spa named Ayura. The masseuse hands were graced by angels. For couples if this place don’t get the spark going nothing will. Gorgeous views everywhere you look. Three swimming pools but the sunset pool is the star of the show.
