"Hi, my name is Eduardo and I visited this particular place in Costa Rica couple of weeks ago. Loved the landscapes and waterfalls inside the property. Food here was amazing, chocolate brownie is a must. What I liked the most was the little details such as flavored water in my room and hot water bags inside my bed. Having a tico coffee in rooms terrace will be unforgetable!"

"My husband and I really loved this place. The location was scenic and peaceful. Each private bungalow had your own balcony and jacuzzi, which we used often! They perform turn down service each night, with a nice heated water bottle in the bed to keep your toes warm. Really nice touch. There was some nice hikes around the property, especially the one to the 3 separate falls (each one got better and better). The restaurant served excellent food and wine and were very catering to my gluten allergy. We did a couple tours including horseback riding, and a night hike. The Horseback riding was spectacular and I highly recommend it. The night hike was disappointing. The guide did not really find anything and it seemed he didn't really know where to look. Not a lot of animals in this area, but it is the perfect stop for relaxation and serenity. We got a massage at the spa, and I wanted to bring the masseuse home back to the states, as she was superb (her name was Jennifer too). You can drink the water on this property, and they are very eco-friendly, which we appreciate. Definitely would go here again. "
