Nice place, a peculiar smell in the bedrooms, probably due to the portable air conditioners. The kitchen could have a few more accessories.

Our one-night stay was simply wonderful. We were a group of 6 people and the house was perfect for us. It's a large wooden house with lots of space and a super cozy atmosphere. Honestly, the place is much more beautiful than the photos show. Everything looks better in person, it is very well equipped and cared for in every detail. You can see the quality of the house and the love with which they maintain it. The host was super helpful and friendly at all times, which made the experience even more special. It was definitely an unforgettable night for everyone. We highly recommend it and would definitely come back.

The pictures are nicer than the actual cabin. The price is way too high for this place. At 265$ canadian per night, I found places in Costa Rica the are well situated and much nicer. AC extremely noisy. Oven was not working. Disappointing. On the positive side, the place was clean, it's big and located close the Rio Celeste.

Lamentamos que se sintiera de esta forma el precio de la casa completa ws para 10 personas y la reseva realizada due para 5 personas, por este motivo me imagino que sintieron el precio elevado, las fotos son iguales a la casa tenemos reseñas indicándolo, nuevamente sentimos mucho su sentir.

This house is perfect if you want to be in the middle of nowhere among the locals. There is nothing to do on foot, you absolutely need a car. The place is very relaxing and the space with the hammocks is great! Small downside, some maintenance would be necessary especially in terms of plumbing and electricity. The kitchen breaker was constantly tripping and the piping under the sink is held with a tie wrap that gave way the first time dishes were washed.
