We loved everything about our stay at Noah's Forest! Cristal was very helpful at check-in and the welcome drink was delicious! The property was beautiful, clean, and well maintained. Jeisson was helpful with our bags and had a telescope set up to show up slothes in the trees as soon as we arrived. Josue and Stephan (not sure if I am spelling his name right) were amazing as our waiters every day for breakfast and other meals. They were attentive, learned all of our names, and welcomed us daily. Pool and hot tubs were clean and enjoyable. We always felt safe. I would highly recommend staying here!

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.
