Cabins in Boca Tapada

big room with AC and excellent beds; shower in open air is a nice feature

One of those rare 10/10 hotels! We had an amazing time at this lodge and can only recommend it. Our bungalow was so beautiful, the restaurant has an amazing view and good food. So much food is homemade or homegrown. All the tours we did were great and super easy to organize. The amount of birds you can see from the restaurant is amazing. So much nature to see on their own paths, would definetely recommend a guided walk to make the most out of it. Very friendly staff. Great massage directly above the water. It all felt very luxurious and high end, but gave us lots of easy access to beautiful nature and wildlife.

The staff was super friendly. The food at the restaurant was some of the best we had in CR. Hugo was a great tour guide, very knowledgeable. We saw incredible birds (boat-billed herons, green parrots, aras, and many more) and took a boat trip to the border of Nicaragua. On the way, we even saw a crocodile mother with 4 tiny babies.

Staff were amazing doing their best to give you a great experience. It was obvious that they were passionate about delivering exceptional service: everyone from guides to those serving dinner were fantastic. Most people had worked there a long time and took real pride in the lodge. Nothing was too much trouble. We were heading to their macro tour and the guide directing us there stopped and showed us a laughing falcon. That kind of consideration for our experience was shown consistently during our stay. We took the public bus there from Pital and they kindly picked us up which was really helpful to our budget. Everything is run incredibly well and the bird feeders helped elevate the experience as there was always something beautiful to watch. Food was great and the accommodation was simple, clean and comfortable. The hammocks overlooking the beautiful, peaceful gardens were a bonus
