Serously, this is a well kept secret! Shhhh...don't tell to many people because I want to be able to get a room in the future. We stayed in the 2 bedroom villa. Very comfortable with beautiful surroundings. We were entertained in the evenings by the howler monkeys in the trees. Great fun to watch. The grounds are beautiful and well... More

For the month of January 2011 my wife and I stayed at the Guacamaya Lodge. I've been planning to write this ever since our stay and it has been bugging me that I never wrote a review of the wonderful people and Lodge where we stayed last year. Having read all the positive reviews of the other patrons, we can... More

I recently stayed four nights at Guacamaya Lodge. Lovely. Hot. Peaceful. A few minutes walk to the beach. Gorgeous sunsets. Good food. Basic room. I took Nature Air from San Jose to Liberia, and that was wild and nerve-wracking, in a small, wind-blown plane. I decided, instead of braving those crazy skies again, to hire the driver who'd picked me... More

We spent two nights at the Guacamaya Lodge, which is owned/run by Swiss expats. Stereotyping often is nonsense, but in this case it might be a reason why the place is neatly clean, very well organised and with very very nice breakfast (they bake their own bread! fresh fruit cocktail! Home made jams!) and dinner that hints at Swiss cuisine:... More

Guacamaya Lodge is on a small hilltop (although no great views) in a residential area, but it is quiet, pleasant and offers better-than-your-typical Costa Rican restaurant food. This is a solid hotel -- simple, clean rooms typical of small CR hotels; a nice pool area; breezy, pleasant restaurant and bar; mostly good service. The free internet usually worked, and I... More

We've been to guacamay lodge twice now and love it. The second time we took 45 people back with us and got married there. It's owned by a Swiss brother and sister who are efficient and warm. You barely see them unless you need something and then there is always someone there to help you. The rooms are not luxurious... More

I recently returned from a solo 11 day trip to Guanacaste, Costa Rica. Since this was my first adventure to CR, my mission was to see as much of this part of the country as I could in a limited amount of time. While I stayed in four different hotels from the Lake Arenal region to the Pacific coast, the... More

We stayed here 3 days and enjoyed it every minute. A perfect and beautifull place to stay. The beach nearby, a very nice swimmingool, perfect food in the wonderfull restaurant. A fantastic place to stay!!

Guacamaya lodge was friendly from beginning to end. We went deep sea fishing and had our dorado catch prepared several ways, scrumptious. We played bocchi ball and swam at the beach. We walked for 5 kilometers on the most beautiful beach and saw about 10 people. Horses were available but we didn't go riding, nor did we take advantage of... More
