If you want unique and private experience in the middle of the rain forest, this is the place. The room was really phenomenal. The closest town is 25 minutes away so be prepared to spend some time on the way to and from La Fortuna if you want to do any excursions.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (9 reviews)
We stayed for a week at Junglo. Gorgeous property but it isn't really a resort or spa. The property is stunning and the views are spectacular. The design of the rooms is modern and are more spacious than an average hotel room. The kitchenette is a really nice feature. Once you get there it is beautiful ...

I loved the properly. The outside and buildings a well maintained and are newer. It is visually appealing, and quaint. Cabins are roomy but small enough to let you know you aren’t in your own home. AC+. Host was helpful with helping me setup activities. My only small recommendation is a little dusting ...

1/5 - Terrible

Verified traveler

I showed up after in late a full day of travel to get there. I was informed they were overbooked and didn’t have my reserved & paid in full room available for me. I needed to go to their sister property with no AC, no hot water, it was awful.

5/5 - Excellent

The Don Olivo Chocolate tour is fantastic, as is Sky Trek Canyoning!
