Just came home from a nine day trip with a friend. We spent 4 nights at Leaves and Lizards in the Congo Cabin with a beautiful window wall view of Arenal Volcano which was completely visible on our first morning (what a treat) We had a wonderful time overall. Steve and Debbie (the owners) were hospitable, gracious and incredibly helpful... More

We stayed here with our 9 year old for three days. It was beyond our expectations even after reading all the great reviews. I have traveled a lot in my life and have to say this is one of the best places and value I have come across in Avery long time. First of all the cabins - we stayed... More

We just got back from 10 days in Costa Rica with our 5 and 2 years old boys. We spent the last 3 nights at Leaves and Lizards and it was truly a beautiful way to end our vacation.

They have all the basics that you would need and expect and several treats as... More

Beautiful location and a fun place to stay, especially with kids. More

we started our 3 week road trip at leaves and lizards and it was the best place we stayed during the trip. Debbie and Steve are super nice and a wealth of info on things to do and see, and to avoid. Watched fireflies at night and enjoyed watching all the birds right beside us each morning at breakfast. The... More

Our family of 5 (including one in a wheelchair) had a wonderful time here for 3 days. The house was clean and decorated with beautiful paintings on the walls- see the bathroom photo.
