Nathalie is an excellent host. Everything was spotless and the breakfast was excellent. 20/10.

Nathalie excelente anfitriona, todo estaba impecable y excelente el desayuno 20/10

Nathalie and Yannick are great hosts. Their place is beautiful and peaceful, and you can tell they’ve put a lot of effort and love into their property. The landscaping is well thought-out and beautiful, making you feel really connected to nature. Nathalie and Yannick were so kind and welcoming, taking time to chat with us each day. The cabins were clean and immaculate and had everything we needed. It was amazing to hear and see all the surrounding birds and animals on their property. The included breakfast is well-served and delicious, and we looked forward to it each morning during our stay. If you’re looking for a quiet place surrounded by beautiful scenery, I highly recommend staying here.

We enjoyed staying for the second time; it's a place I would definitely come back to without hesitation. Comfortable, nice, with great service and a delicious breakfast

Disfrutamos quedarnos por segunda vez, es un lugar al que volvería sin pensarlo. Cómodo, lindo, con gran atención y un desayuno delicioso

Everything is nice, but I recommend going in a high car.

Bonito todo, pero recomiendo ir en un automóvil alto.

Great place!! Beautiful landscapes!! The breakfast is delicious!! Beautiful pool.

Excelente lugar!! Hermosos paisajes!! El desayuno muy rico!! La piscina hermosa.

A very clean and well-kept place. Very good service!

Un lugar muy limpio y bien cuidado. Muy buena atención!

Nathalie’s place looks just like the photos, clean and modern. The pool has a great view. Breakfast was simple but always great. I recommend a SUV for driving the road to the home and surrounding areas. We were lucky and saw a tree full of monkeys on the drive . The beach was 15 away with local yummy restaurants.

Nathalie was very kind and friendly, it was our first time in that part of the country and we fell in love with the place, if you are looking for a place to disconnect from the noise and routine, this is definitely the right place. The breakfast was delicious. Thank you very much Nathalie for your kindness, it was a very nice experience, we hope to return soon and stay more days in this beautiful place!

Nathalie fue muy amable y amigable, era nuestra primera vez en esa parte del país y quedamos enamorados del lugar, si buscan un lugar para desconectarse del ruido y la rutina, definitivamente este es el lugar indicado. El desayuno estuvo delicioso. Muchas gracias Nathalie por tu amabilidad, fue una experiencia muy linda, esperamos volver pronto y quedarnos más días en este hermoso lugar!

We had an excellent stay in the accommodation, the place is amazing, the views, nature and rooms are quite comfortable. Nathalie and her husband are very friendly and helpful people, 100% recommended and we hope to return soon!

Excelente estancia tuvimos en el alojamiento, el lugar es increíble, las vistas, la naturaleza y las habitaciones son bastante cómodas. Nathalie y su esposo son personas muy amigables y serviciales, 100% recomendado y esperamos volver pronto!

excellent service from both, very good breakfast... the place is simply amazing...

excelente la atención de ambos, el desayuno muy bueno... el lugar simplemente increíble...

I'm going to give a 4-star rating 1. Service: The service by both was super friendly, attentive and they give you super clear instructions. 2. Access to the place: This is something that the hosts clearly cannot improve because it is not in their hands, the road is complicated, it is approximately 15 to 19 minutes of cobblestone street and a lot of dust, if you have a small car you can still get there, but you might get bumped a little. 3. External infrastructure: The facilities are very nice, nature is taken care of a lot and they focus on having everything very clean, the pool is very nice and very well maintained. 4. Room: Super impeccable room, very clean, everything in the right order, there is no television, which honestly doesn't bother me, and my only criticism at the room level is that the toilet doesn't have a door and is very close to the bed, if you go with your partner or friend and you still don't know each other very well, it will be uncomfortable to defecate since everything will be heard.

Voy a realizar mi calificación en 4 puntos 1.Servicio: El servicio por ambos fue súper amable , atentos y te dan las instrucciones super claras. 2.Acceso hasta el lugar : Esto es algo que claramente los anfitriones no pueden mejorar porque no está en sus manos , la carretera es complicada , son aproximadamente 15 a 19 minutos de calle empedrada y mucho polvo , si tienen un carrito bajo igual si llegan ,pero se puede golpear un poquito. 3.Infraestructura externa : Las instalaciones muy lindas , la naturaleza la cuidan mucho y se enfocan en tener todo muy aseado , la piscina es muy linda y muy bien cuidada . 4. Habitación : Habitación súper impecable , muy aseada , todo en el orden correcto , no hay televisión que la verdad a mi no me incomoda eso y mi única crítica a nivel de habitación es que el sanitario no tiene puerta y está muy pegada de la cama , si van con su pareja o amig@ y aún no tienen mucha confianza va a ser incómodo ir a defecar ya que se escuchará todo.

If you’re looking for a peaceful escape, this place is perfect. Away from the crowds, you wake up to the birds and howler monkeys, pick your own adventure for the day, and then relax at night to a stunning view of the sunset from the pool. It’s a short (20-30min) drive to dozens of beaches, activities, and lively towns and markets. The hosts were welcoming and helped us start each day with a delicious breakfast of fruit, eggs, and toast. They put a lot of care into their property and it shows. The air conditioning was very welcome in April with most days reaching over 35C. This isn’t an option at many other similar stays. We stayed for an entire week and it felt like a home away from home :)

Excellent Costa Rican-style hotel, away from Tamarindo. The room was great and very clean. Natalie was lovely and we were served a great breakfast with the tranquility of the mountains. Everything was perfect.

Excelente hotel estilo costarricense, alejado de tamarindo. La habitación estaba genial y muy limpia. Natalie fue encantadora y nos sirvieron un estupendo desayuno con la tranquilidad de la montaña. Todo perfecto.

It was one of the most beautiful places we stayed on our tour of Costa Rica. We thought the Baliyana Lodge was just fantastic. Such a fantastically maintained and beautifully located complex with a great view and infinity pool. We even had animal visits from the howler monkeys, totally cute since we saw a monkey mom with her baby. Not to mention the breakfast offered was super delicious and prepared with a lot of love. Plus a very tasty traditional coffee. The hosts were very accommodating and extremely friendly and gave us great tips for the beaches. Overall, we recommend Baliyana Lodge to everyone because you can simply have a great quiet and relaxing vacation there. For us, it was just great 👌😌

Es war einer der schönsten Unterkünfte die wir auf unserer Rundreise durch Costa Rica hatten. Wir fanden die Baliyana Lodge einfach phantastisch. So eine traumhaft gepflegte und schön gelegene Anlage mit einen tollen Ausblick und Infinitypool. wir hatten sogar tierischen besucht von den Brülaffen, total süß da wir eine Affenmama mit ihrem baby gesehen haben. Nicht zu vergessen das angebotene Frühstück war super lecker und mit viel Liebe zubereitet. Dazu ein sehr schmackhafter traditioneller Kaffee. Die Gastgeber waren sehr zuvorkommend und äußerst freundlich und hatten uns tolle Tips für die Strände gegeben. Im großen und ganzen: wir empfehlen jedem die Baliyana Lodge weil man dort einfach einen ganz tollen ruhigen und entspannten Urlaub verbringen kann. Für uns war er einfach top 👌😌

The lodge is a little paradise, a real insider tip! The hosts are very friendly and accommodating. It was the most beautiful place we've stayed in Costa Rica so far.

Die Lodge ist ein kleines Paradies, ein echter Geheimtipp! Die Gastgeber sind sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Es war die schönste Unterkunft die wir bisher in Costa Rica gehabt haben.

A magical place! The accommodation is maintained with a lot of taste, skill and care. Quiet as desired with the added bonus of visiting the howler monkeys above our bungalow. The glass of wine by the beautiful pool at sunset is unforgettable! Our hosts were very attentive, full of useful tips to make the most of the region, in connection with the association that manages the turtle nesting… in short, everything was perfect

Un endroit magique ! Le logement est tenu avec énormément de goût, de compétences et de minutie. Tranquille à souhait avec en prime la visite des singes hurleurs au dessus de notre bungalow. Le verre de vin pris au bord de la piscine magnifique au coucher du soleil est inoubliable! Nos hôtes furent au petits soins, plein de conseils utiles pour profiter au mieux de la région, en lien avec l’association qui gère la ponte des tortues…bref tout était parfait

Good host, very friendly, very good food and everything was clean and tidy

Buena host muy amable, cocina muy rico y todo estába limpio y ordenado

A magnificent place. Peaceful, and serene, and Nathalie and her husband are great hosts. Watching the sunset by the pool adds that extra touch to our stay. The breakfast is well-prepared and delicious.  We had trouble finding the place at first but eventually got there.

A very peaceful place Privacy with guests Nature-friendly environment The hosts went out of their way to make sure we were well cared for

Lugar de mucha paz Privacidad con los huéspedes Entorno amigable con la naturaleza Los anfitriones se esmeraron porque fuéramos bien atendidos

It was all just fantastic! Highly recommended!

Es war alles einfach fantastisch! Sehr empfehlenswert!

This place was absolutely beautiful! My husband and I only stayed a night but Nathalie and her husband were great hosts. Everything was nice and clean. It was quiet and very peaceful. The view from the pool was spectacular. It definitely felt like a very zen experience. The breakfast was amazing. They made us feel like home with how they tended to us. I definitely recommend renting a 4x4 if you’re looking into driving yourself. The area surrounding the Airbnb and to get there is completely off road like. You’ll definitely need a car that will be able to drive off road for about 18-20 min. We had a 4x4 car so we navigated the area with no problem. Otherwise, I’ll definitely recommend this place!

We had a lovely stay at this airbnb. Nathalie & her husband were incredibly nice & helpful. The nature and the pool was so beautiful and it was the perfect spot to relax! The breakfast we got in the morning was also a 10/10! Thank you 🙏

Nathalie and her husband are amazing. We felt like we had known them forever.  The place is so beautiful and peaceful. It is a place to rest and reconnect with each other and with nature. Breakfast was prepared every morning. Delicious! The afternoon was spent relaxing by the pool with a good book. The sunset and the stars put on a show every night! The monkeys came and hung out in the trees on Saturday evening. What a treat to watch them enjoy the fruit of the trees. The only thing that I would suggest is to rent a car. We called a taxi each night for dinner. Which by the way, if you stay here you MUST eat at Cactus Restaurant. The food and the owner are amazing!   We enjoyed our stay so very much. We hope to be back again soon. We miss Nathalie and her husband as they felt like family.

This place is absolutely amazing. The place is better than the photos. The place is very clean and the garden is beautiful. The pool was also a nice place to cool off and enjoy the sunset. Breakfast consisted of eggs, toast, the best jam, traditional coffee, and beans. 100% recommend.

Was a beautiful private oasis. We enjoyed the pool and seeing monkeys. Breakfast was well presented and tasty. It was very clean and bed was comfortable. They take great pride in the landscape. I would recommend this to my friends.

This place is really beautiful, the hosts are very kind and friendly. Warm welcome. The houses are made with a lot of love and are in best condition. The breakfeast from Natalie was very good. The pool is also very nice. Would recommend it!

The accommodation with the three separate cabins is very nicely laid out. Nathalie and her husband are super nice and totally helpful when it comes to individual requests. The breakfast is very good. In the room there is a small coffee machine and an air conditioning. Since we were there at the end of the dry season, there were a few forest fires in the area. So sometimes it smelled a little burnt.

Die Unterkunft mit den drei separaten Hütten ist sehr schön angelegt. Nathalie und ihr Mann sind super nett und total hilfsbereit, wenn es um individuelle Wünsche geht. Das Frühstück ist sehr gut. In dem Zimmer gibt es eine kleine Kaffeemaschine und eine Klimaanlage. Da wir zum Ende der Trockenzeit da waren, gab es in der Gegend ein paar Waldbrände. Daher hat es manchmal etwas verbrannt gerochen.

Nathalie's place is  simply spectacular. You find yourself in a small and private paradise on a hill in the middle of Pinilla, overlooking other mountains and just the sound of nature. The cabins are spacious, with lots of natural lighting and with all the amenities and a first-class service provided by Nathalie, all for an excellent stay. 100% recommended!

El lugar de Nathalie es  simplemente espectacular. Te encuentras en un paraíso pequeño y privado en una colina en el medio de Pinilla, con vistas a otras montañas y solamente el sonido de la naturaleza. Las cabañas son amplias, con mucha iluminación natural y con todas las amenidades y un servicio de primera brindado por Nathalie, todo para una excelente estadía. 100% recomendado!

They treated us very well and the place was very nice surrounded by nature.

Nos trataron muy bien y el lugar muy lindo rodeado de naturaleza.

Nathalie and her husband were charming, welcoming and friendly people. I recommend this get away for anyone who enjoys a peaceful escape from the noise.

This is a beautiful property, and the hosts are very gracious and kind. The cabins (#3 of them) are situated in such a way that you can sit on the porch, and not see your neighbors. A HUGE plus is the spacious bathroom with HOT, yup HOT water! It's a bit of a drive to any of the beaches, but they do have an Infinity Pool that's very relaxing as a trade off. When trying to get to the property....Definitely punch in the actual coordinates that Natalie provides. The  Maps link, will take you on a wild goose chase (which we found out the hard way) Lol.

Thank you for your lovely stay! Your place is flirtatious, intimate and above all very clean. We enjoyed our stay and the breakfasts were made with a lot of love. We hope to be back someday! See you soon:)

Merci à vous pour le beau séjour! Votre endroit est coquet, intime et surtout très propre. Nous avons apprécié notre séjour et les petits déjeuners étaient faits avec beaucoup d’amour. Nous espérons revenir un jour ! À bientôt :)

Amazing stay! This place is magical, the property is beautiful and the cabin is such a vibe. The pool overlooks the mountain tops and is perfect for sunset. Nathalie is an amazing host and gave us some recommendations. Breakfast was delicious and I can't wait to go back!

It is a very quiet and nice place to rest, excellent service!!! Everything very clean and clean.

Es un lugar muy tranquilo y lindo para descansar, excelente atención!!! Todo muy limpio y ordenado.

Amazing experience! everything was top notch. The beautiful quiet and very clean lodge, the incredible environment with the pool overlooking the trees, the delicious breakfast served every morning taking care of everyone's desires. The hosts were so kind, we would 100% recommend the place if you're in the area. Note that beautiful beaches are only 10 minutes away.

Expérience incroyable! Tout était au top. Le lodge magnifique calme et très propre, l’environnement incroyable avec la piscine vue sur les arbres, le petit déjeuner délicieux servis chaques matins en prenant soin des envies de chacun. Les hôtes ont été d’une si gentillesse, nous recommandons à 100% l’endroit si vous êtes dans le coin. A noter que de magnifiques plages sont uniquement à 10 minutes.

Baliyana Lodge is BEAUTIFUL!! We loved hanging out in the infinity pool with its amazing sunset views of the trees. The room was equipped with A/C and hot water! There was a drying rack outside the unit to hang our towels and bathing suits which was a very nice touch. Nathalie and her husband made us a delicious breakfast everyday with eggs, toast, jam, fruit, juice and coffee. They were some of the most friendly people we have met and would love to stay again! Thank you so much!!

Great place to stay. Beautiful view. The street is a little bad, but with any car you can go. Delicious breakfast.

Gran lugar para hospedarse. Hermosa vista. La calle está un poco mal, pero con cualquier carro se puede ir. el desayuno delicioso.

Excellent attention from the hosts, the place is exact as you see the photos, excellent attention and delicious breakfast, highly recommended

Excelente atención por parte de los anfitriónes, el lugar es exacto a como se ven las fotos, excelente atención y delicioso desayuno, muy recomendado

The breakfast is very rich, very complete, the accommodation is very nice, it is advisable to come with a high car, to get to the accommodation are about 30 minutes on a ballast street and there are ugly parts, if they do remote work or need internet, the network is very slow, it does not serve to send something, otherwise it is a very nice space.

El desayuno es muy rico, muy completo, el hospedaje es muy lindo, recomendable venir con carro alto, para llegar al hospedaje son como 30 minutos en calle de lastre y hay partes feas, si realizan teletrabajo o necesitan internet, la red es muy lenta, no sirve para enviar algo, por lo demás es un espacio muy bonito.

We had the most amazing stay at Nathalie’s airbnb in a beautiful cabin. The location was stunning, the cabins feel like they are in the jungle and the view from Nathalie’s home where we ate breakfast each morning on the terrace, also the view from the pool area, is magical. The photos are great but 100x better in real life! The space itself was very comfortable, very clean, and had everything you would need including a lovely deck to sit and read and enjoy the sounds of nature. Both Nathalie and her husband were lovely hosts. They prepared breakfast for us daily and checked in about how we were enjoying our stay and recommended some amazing places to visit in the surrounding area. This Airbnb is magical and it’s very relaxing being surrounded by nature. The pool is excellent! You can drive very easily to busy areas, very good restaurants and gorgeous beaches. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway in a stunning location. I would love to return!

Magical place! Beautiful experience! And the couple is very kind to welcome us! The room is beautiful and clean, relaxing. Highly recommended

Mágico lugar! Hermosa experiencia! Y la pareja muy amables al recibirnos! La habitación preciosa y limpia, relajante. Súper recomendado

That was incredible ! We loved it from A to Z ! The location is amazing, you are in the jungle and just 15 min away from playa Avellana by car. There is 3 cabinas so you are quiet and can enjoy the sounds of the jungle. Everything is functional and cozy. Nathalie and Yannick are super nice and serve you a delicious breakfast in the most relaxed manner. The swimming pool and the views are unique. Now I just think about going back there, big thank you !

But what a joy! What a paradise! Our favorite in Costa Rica. An impeccable accommodation with exquisite taste. Thoughtful lovely hosts . A joy for. Paradise is probably here! Just want to come back and stay!!!!

Mais quel bonheur ! Quel paradis! Notre coup de coeur au Costa Rica. Un logement impeccable d'un goût exquis. Des hôtes adorables prévenants . Un bonheur pour. Le paradis es là sans doute! Une seule envie : revenir et rester !!!!

Help my best friend to book because she was coming with her husband and son (baby under 2 years old) to book, my wedding was Saturday, Nathalie wrote to me Friday ( one day before my wedding, when my friend was already on her way from SJO) to tell me that she had not been fixed that she was coming with a baby and that they did not accept children (which she does not say in the house rules), she told me that she could no longer cancel for the app that I had to go pick up silver that same day ( one day before my wedding, in full runs) to her accommodation, which is extremely long and the road is terrible. It was a bad experience , my friend is already on my way with her family and that she canceled on me a few hours before entering. The host is a foreigner, so she doesn't speak very good Spanish or English, so I couldn't communicate well with her when she gets paid.

Ayude a mi mejor amiga a reservar porque ella venía con su esposo y su hijo (bebé menos de 2 años) a reservar, mi boda era sábado, Nathalie me escribió viernes ( un día antes de mi boda, cuando mi amiga ya venía de camino desde SJO) para decime que no se había fijado que ella venía con un bebé y que ellos no aceptaban niños (lo cual no dice en las reglas de la casa), me dijo q ya no podía cancelar por la aplicación que tenía que ir a recoger la plata ese mismo día ( un día antes de mi boda, en plenas carreras) hasta su alojamiento, el cual queda sumamente largo y el camino está terrible. Fue una pésima experiencia , me amiga ya de camino con su familia y que me haya cancelado unas horas antes de entrar. La anfitriona es extranjera por lo que no habla muy bien español ni inglés así que tampoco pude comunicarme bien con ella cuando llegue a retirar el dinero.

just outside my imagination! never seen somewhere this peaceful!

Breathtaking place to stay. The photos don't show nearly we are beautiful there. The hosts are warm and helpful. The view from the pool over the forest indescribable. Gently woken up, you will be greeted by brew monkeys. All in all, 5 stars is not enough. However, I would recommend a good car.

Atemberaubende Unterkunft. Die Fotos zeigen nicht annähernd wir schön es dort ist. Die Gastgeber sind herzlich und hilfsbereit. Der Blick vom Pool über den Wald unbeschreiblich. Sanft aufgeweckt wird man von brüllaffen. Alles in allem sind 5 Sterne nicht genug. Ich würde allerdings ein gutes Auto empfehlen.

My husband and I rented 5X separate airbnb's during our trip in Costa Rica. Our experience at this Airbnb was by Far the best experience we had during our stay in Costa Rica. Our only regret was we didn't stay longer! Our host was very pleasant, gracious and provided excellent service! The area and quality was very pleasant and beautiful! -We'll be back.

True slice of heaven! The owners take care of the lush vegetation on the site with love and it gives a beautiful, superb, fairytale environment! Nathalie and Yannick are wonderful hosts who welcomed us very warmly and taught us a lot about the country. The bungalow is very clean and tastefully furnished. Also, you will not need to go into a park to admire howler monkeys since they will be your immediate neighbors. The pool is perfect for relaxing admiring the surrounding vegetation. In the end, breakfast prepared by our hosts is a real delight! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️❤️❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Véritable coin de paradis! Les propriétaires prennent soin avec amour de la végétation luxuriante sur le site et cela donne un magnifique, superbe, féerique environnement! Nathalie et Yannick sont de merveilleux hôtes qui nous ont reçu fort chaleureusement et nous ont appris plein de choses sur le pays. Le bungalow est très propre et aménagé avec goût. De plus, vous n’aurez pas besoin d’aller dans un parc pour admirer des singes hurleurs puisque ils seront vos voisins immédiats. La piscine est parfaite pour relaxer en admirant la végétation environnante. Finalement le petit déjeuner préparé par nos hôtes est un vrai délice! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️❤️❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Beautiful place!  Nathalie was very responsive and friendly! Beautiful property. We were even greeted by a howler monkey! It is a bumpy dirt road to get to but well worth it. There is a beautiful beach near by with a really good restaurant called Lola’s! Definitely recommend there for sunset dinner!!

At nathalie and Yannick's you are so good that we would stay there much longer. Everything is great👌. The rooms decorated with taste and refinement (hot shower! and mosquito net) no little babies to nibble you. The infinity pool is remarkable. Breakfast is delicious and hearty. Beautiful garden. You will even have a little water jet in the morning to dust the car!!! A big thank you to both of them!

Chez nathalie et Yannick vous êtes si bien que l’on y resterait bien plus longtemps. Tout est nickel 👌. Les chambres décorées avec goût et raffinement (douche chaude ! et moustiquaire) pas de petites bébêtes pour vous chatouiller. La piscine à débordement est remarquable. Le petit déjeuner est délicieux et copieux. Le jardin magnifique. Vous aurez meme droit à un petit coup de jet d’eau le matin pour dépoussiérer la voiture !!! Un grand merci à eux deux !

This is place is a small hidden paradise. It is a gorgeous setting, surrounded by nature, wildlife like howling monkeys right next to m y room and spectacular views. The place was spotless and had everything you need. The pictures do not do it justice as this place is one of the best places I have ever stayed. The hosts were super nice, helpful and cooked an absolutely delicious breakfast. I wish I had stayed longer but this is my place to go now for future. It's far from the hustle and bustle of Tamarindo, but few minutes from playa Avellenas and 20 min drive from Tamarindo. I cannot express how much this place impressed me . Its small and for couples or singles only which is great as it makes it much more private in a way.

Amazing air bnb!! The experience was unlike anything else and I am so happy I got a chance to stay here. The hosts were the friendliest, most amazing people and the lodge was just beautiful!   I do wish I was able to spend a few extra days but I’ll be back! Better than the photos

We loved the place, if what you are looking for is peace and quiet. The hosts are always attentive and very friendly. Breakfast is delicious! I would definitely come back.

Nos encantó el lugar, si lo que se busca es paz y tranquilidad. Los anfitriones siempre atentos y muy amables. El desayuno es delicioso! Definitivamente volvería.

Nathalie and her husband’s lodge is beyond beautiful! It was so serene and peaceful. The grounds are lush and well maintained. I took full advantage of the infinity pool overlooking the jungle. They went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and the breakfast was AMAZING! I would recommend having a car if you stay here but they also referred a lovely taxi driver to help me get around. I will definitely be back again.

Spectacular place, you can breathe a lot of peace, excellent to maintain privacy, a cozy space and full of details.

Espectacular lugar, se respira mucha paz, excelente para mantener privacidad, un espacio acogedor y lleno de detalles.

Natalie and her husband were such sweet hosts. We arrived at night and couldn’t find the location because our gps wasn’t working. They met us at a local spot to direct us to their place. Her breakfast was amazing and the place was so beautiful.

Our stay with Nathalie was just perfect. The place, the garden, the pool, the breakfast - everything was great. Our little lodge was very clean and quite modern. In the garden you can watch all kinds of animals. Our highlight was the many hummingbirds and monkeys. The breakfast was very tasty and fresh. The pool was also clean and you could cool down well. The view of the jungle is unimaginably beautiful. The communication with Nathalie was always great. The path to the accommodation is a bit bumpy but manageable with a 4x4. We felt very comfortable and will definitely come back.

Unser Aufenthalt bei Nathalie war einfach perfekt. Die Unterkunft, der Garten, der Pool, das Frühstück - alles war super. Unsere kleine Lodge war sehr sauber und ziemlich modern. Im Garten konnte man allerlei Tiere beobachten. Unser Highlight waren die vielen Kolibris und Affen. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker und frisch. Der Pool war auch sauber und man konnte sich gut abkühlen. Der Ausblick auf den Jungle ist unvorstellbar schön. Die Kommunikation mit Nathalie war immer super. Der Weg zur Unterkunft ist etwas holprig aber mit einem Allradwagen zu meistern. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und kommen bestimmt wieder.

Very flax, a quiet place surrounded by beautiful mountains, about 10 minutes by car from the beach. Nathalie and her husband very attentive.  Thank you for everything we enjoyed very much.

Muy lino, un lugar tranquilo rodeado de montañas hermosas, como a 10 minutos en carro de la playa. Nathalie y su esposo muy atentos.  Gracias por todo disfrutamos mucho.

Amazing hosts in a stunning part of the world. Went above and beyond to accommodate us. We would highly recommend staying here, we stayed for 2 nights at the beginning or our stay, and wish we could have stayed for longer

Amazing place in the middle of jungle. Sparkling clean room. Best host we had in the Airbnb. I wish we could stay longer. The road was a bit bumpy due to the rain, but worth it. It exceeds our expectations.

We were unable to complete our stay because the weather was very bad. Nathalie was very nice and understanding. The unit was very clean and the grounds were very pretty. Consider the road to get there because it’s in bad condition.

The place is a bit away from the beach but definitely worth it. It has beautiful gardens and spaces in common. The breakfast was rich and hosts were always with a nice smile! I would recommend.

El lugar está un poco lejos de la playa pero definitivamente vale la pena. Tiene lindos jardines y espacios en común. El desayuno estaba rico y los anfitriones siempre estaban con una linda sonrisa! De fijo lo recomendaría.

We booked for one night and needed up staying two. We would have stayed for longer if we had time. We didn’t not know what to expect when driving down the road. We were met with such a warm welcome. The cabins are beautiful, so well finished. The gardens are maintained with such care. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a tranquil few nights away. If we make it back to Costa Rica we will be booking in again.

It's exactly like the photos, a very tasty breakfast. I recommend it! 😊

Es exactamente como las fotos, un desayuno muy sabroso. Lo recomiendo! 😊

If you are looking for a secluded stay in a jungle paradise, this is it. The owners have taken such beautiful care of the gardens, grounds, and nature at their place. Each rock, each tree, each flower is thoughtfully put into place, the quarters which they designed are exquisite, and the monkeys which eat in the fruit trees are a delight to watch. The view is absolutely stunning. The owners themselves have such beautiful, hospital and genuinely friendly spirits that you'll feel immediately welcomed. You will absolutely love staying here.

We had a lovely stay at Baliyana Lodge! The place is created with a lot of love by the lovely and welcoming owners. We felt very much at home! The cabina had everything we needed, is very cozy and in quiet suroundings. Natalie made a delicious breakfast for us in the morning. The whole property is beautiful and very good taken care of. We highly recommend this place to stay in Playa Avellana.

Perfect place to get away from routine! We really enjoyed this stay and look forward to returning. Breakfast was delicious :)

El lugar perfecto para escaparse de la rutina! Disfrutamos muchísimo de esta estadía y deseamos regresar. El desayuno estuvo delicioso :)

A quiet stay, safe and full of peace. Hosts are lovely people and breakfast is very delicious.

Un hospedaje tranquilo, seguro y lleno de paz. Los anfitriones son personas encantadoras y el desayuno es muy rico.

Nathalie's kindness is amazing. A place full of life.

Increíble la amabilidad de Nathalie. Un lugar lleno de vida.

We had a great stay at Nathalie and Yannick's place. Everything was perfect, the hosts were extremely thoughtful and the setting beautiful. We would recommend it without hesitation and are already looking forward to returning.

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour chez Nathalie et Yannick. Tout était parfait, les hôtes extrêmement attentionnés et le cadre magnifique. Nous recommandons sans hésiter et avons déjà hâte d’y retourner.

Excellent place to stay near Avellana beach, the perfect getaway. Nathalie and her husband are very friendly. The facilities are clean and tidy. Pool area is the same as shown in the pictures.

Excelente lugar para quedarse cerca de playa Avellana, la escapada perfecta. Nathalie y su esposo son muy cordiales. Las instalaciones limpias y ordenadas. El área de la piscina es igual a cómo se muestra en las fotos.

Super cute place, done with a lot of care . Very peaceful spot. The place is super clean & the breakfast was really fantastic. The hosts were very nice & seem to put a lot of effort in making it pretty including the gardening.

Very pretty and clean bungalows with enough space in between them, lovely pool, friendly owners! The only thing missing is a toilet door!

The setting is magical. Off a mountain road with a gorgeous breeze and the sound of birds. I slept peacefully and enjoyed petit dejeuner on the terrace each morning. Although you don’t need a 4x4, I wish that I had rented one. I dined each night @ Bar Marion on the main road and hung out @ Lola’s on the beach. I ❤️ Avellana.

5 stars everywhere ! Awesome experience, not only is the place beautiful but the hosts are also attentive and very welcoming. We recommend ++++

5 étoiles partout ! Expérience géniale, non seulement l’endroit est magnifique mais les hôtes sont également aux petits soins et très accueillant. Nous recommandons ++++

Amazing place! Great location! Nathalie was very hospitable ☺️ highly recommended!!!❤️

Very beautiful place, recommended a thousand x a thousand

A beautiful place and impeccable cabin. The hosts are very friendly and hospitable people. Totally recommended.

Un lugar hermoso y cabaña impecable. Los host son personas muy amables y hospitalarias. Totalmente recomendable.

This is the best airbnb I've ever stayed at! The best there is to vacation and make a couple getaway comfortably! The place has everything you need, it's impeccable and very comfortable! We would look forward to seeing you soon! Hosts are super nice people, hospitable and helpful! Very safe and beautiful! Hispanohabantes: carry the translator by hand! ;)
