Bad road, nice place.
Amazing property once we got settled in. Incredibly bad road, 7 miles of single lane, lots of traffic and tour busses. Actual stay was 1 kilometer away from resort shown on web site. Beautiful grounds, gracious staff, great dinner. We were one of the only customers not with a tour. Birders galore.

Everyone was so friendly and professional. Their guide, Carlos, was amazing in spotting Quetzals. So worth the early morning arrival time. Food was delicious. Internet was great, we wanted to book a second night, but could not communicate via website or what’s app. Otherwise. Excellent.

The property is situated in a quiet area from the normal hustle and bustle of the property. We liked that the parking attendant was friendly and so was the front office staff. What the hotel lacked was proper amount of blanket for the cold weather and shower that drained properly. While we were there for two nights, we tired to use the fireplace to keep ourselves warm, but the chimney was quite small and the room would quickly fill up with smoke. The drive to the property was quite arduous as the roads are not fully paved. Overall, for the price we paid and the amenities that were provided, we would not visit the property again. Overall an OK experience.

Amazing overall stay!! Staff was friendly and food was delicious (the service was a bit slow, so don’t wait until you are too hungry to go to restaurant). We went during the COVID pandemic so the slow service might have to do with that. Trails, horses, little boats, river, views, all great!!

The bed was not too great and every time you move it sounds a lot! The hot water was like on and off and hard to have it working with stable temperature. For the rest the place is super nice!T

Beds were too firm for me and my wife
The best parts of the stay were the amazing service (for example when we arrived it was raining and someone at reception came out with umbrellas for both of us), the location (close to where you can see quetzals) and the food. We had the tilapia one night and salmon another. The bird guide, Carlos we got through Juan at the lodge was outstanding. We were there in April and if was cool and we had to keep the tiny electric heater on full blast day and night to stay warm. Be sure to walk to the lodge next door to see a good variety of hummingbirds.

Beautiful place in harmony with nature. Exceptional service and fine attention in the restaurant, food and delicious desserts at reasonable price. The trails are very nice and you can see many birds. The boat on the lake is great to enjoy with partner or friends. Recommended.
