"This is a barely discovered gem, a rare destination that will leave you with lifelong memories. We stayed here 9 years ago, and returned this summer. The rainforest location is unique. We stayed in a treehouse, with frequent visits from spider monkeys and seemingly endless species of birds. We partook for a second time the riverboat tour through the local rainforest, up through the Nicaragua border. We saw spectacular macaws, toucans, and numerous other bird species. We encountered..."
"We really enjoyed this resort, the staff was very helpful and always accommodating to us. We came in an off-season and felt like we were the only ones there. The food at the resort was good and the included breakfast was very tasty. Thank you to Michal, Charly, and Kevin for being awesome. I highly recommend walking the beach and taking in the views of the surfers and the mountain ranges that surrounded the resort."

Review: We thoroughly enjoyed our few days at La Vida Mountain Resort and Spa. We particularly enjoyed the evenings watching spectacular thunderstorms flashing in distant skies over other valleys while there was not a drop of rain where we were. The food was consistently very good and the staff always friendly and helpful. We would definitely return.

Review: Fabulous property nestled in beautiful trees, a green and good value with nice staff and good restaurant. Highly recommended. One thing to be mindful of, the traffic noise can be very loud so if this bothers you then it wouldn't be recommended
