We took the night tour and it was awesome! We saw lots of frogs, snakes and spiders! We were staying at another hotel when we booked the tour. The picked up up and dropped off at the hotel. Their English was perfect. They were very knowledgeable and we learned a lot about the animals and plants that we saw. Thanks Isaac for being a wonderful tour guide.

Such a great night time frog tour. Our guide Brandan was amazing. Not sure how he even saw some of the frogs . We also saw an eye lash viper and some other bugs. We got great pictures and learned at lot. If you want some great pics take this tour
We really enjoyed the small, rustic, and off the beaten path nature of this resort. Dirt road and "sidewalk," howler monkeys at daybreak, small resort - just a few units, and the hiking trail is short but lovely.
So what's missing? A comfortable bed. The mattresses are beat up with small little pillows. We slept in separate beds because the double couldn't comfortably accommodate us both without one of us feeling like we would roll out of it.
Listen, I appreciate rustic simplicity. I'm fine with the spartan nature of the room. But the primary reason I pay for lodging is to get a good night's sleep. That's difficult to do on an uncomfortable bed.
We stayed here for 3 nights and enjoyed it. The cabin was simple but clean. It rained a lot while we were there and the roof made it pretty loud, but the front patio is covered enough that we could sit out and listen to the rain and the jungle sounds. The staff (especially Pablo) was very helpful with information and helping us book activities in the area. Their night hike on the property was amazing (highly recommended) and we saw lots of different frogs, snakes and insects. The breakfast was nice in a covered patio area where they put some fruit out nearby and it draws dozens of different kinds of birds in to eat. One night we had a pineapple that we bought and I took it down to the restaurant area to ask for help in cutting it up. Daniel insisted that I go back to my cabin and he would cut it and bring it to us. He came up just a few minutes later with a very artfully-arranged presentation of the pineapple; he definitely went the extra mile for us.
No TV. Light bulb in bathroom was on the ceiling, so very dim lighting to see yourself in the mirror. Breakfast was not good, just eggs and toast, or a sickly sweet omelette. Friendly staff. Cool concept. Animal noises did make it hard to sleep through the night. Great location for tours. Room service turned over our rooms every time we left without having to be asked. Frog tour was amazing, ask for Isaac. No AC but it wasn't too humid, had ceiling fans in the bedroom.
My husband and I had an amazing time at this Eco Lodge. We were welcomed like family, treated like dear friends, and left with many happy memories and life-changing experiences. Breakfast on the terrace surrounded by lush vegetation and with lots of beautiful birds visiting the many fruit feeders. Our thanks to Andres for being such a knowledgeable guide, careful driver, and great friend. Our thanks to Jason for the wonderful informative night tour in which we saw spiders, frogs, toads, a snake, and exotic insects. Our thanks also to the kind and caring kitchen staff who prepared delicious homemade meals for us. This place is highly recommended. Reasonable prices and outstanding service.
