Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Absolutely loved our stay. Staff was amazing and attentive. The grounds are open to people staying after the park closes so it was nice to explore. They offer animal interaction feeding for a reasonable price per the room regardless of number of people, which was great! Had free fishing on grounds which kids loved. Dinning was great. Enjoyed our stay.

I always love staying at this property. It is a paradise dream and I love waking up to the birds saluting the rising Sun. This is my third time staying here at this property. This round I brought my 6 year old nephew who completely loved the animals and the waterfall trails and everything. I always recommend this property to everyone who is planning a visit to Costa Rica.
