Super nice area with the hiking in the waterfall and suspension bridges. People were really helpful, respectful and responsive.

El Tigre Hideaway is the most beautiful place I've ever visited in Costa Rica. Totally secluded and immersed in the forest, but comfortable and safe. We swam in the pool, visited the private waterfall, and at night we listened to monkeys, birds and frogs while the fireflies illuminated the cabin. The food came straight to us, and we also took a horseback tour. The reception has a deck with a spectacular view, a bar, and a swing. Simply amazing. The only confusing thing was understanding the process before arriving. El Tigre is primarily a waterfall destination (incredible!) and the cabins are a complement. From Santa Elena, you can get there in your own vehicle by dirt road. Transportation is not included, although they help coordinate it. In our case, the response took several days, which created uncertainty and confusion. That said, if you arrive with that planned route, the experience is unique and unforgettable.
