This is the real deal. You're driving around the mountain when the GPS says "Turn left... on ... unmarked road." You turn left and find yourself climbing up a steep, bumpy road. The rocks on this road are not 2-3 inches in diameter - they're more like 9 inches. You're going 10 miles per hour. But that's OK because you've... More

we spent two weeks traveling around all parts of Costa Rica and found a gem at this hotel. In the middle of the rainforest, the rooms were exquisite, simple and comfortable. a perfect setting and the jetted tub was awesome, as were the rest of the accommodations - my wife specifically liked the shower head which gives you the sensation...

We couldn't have been happier with our accommodations at the Chachagua Rainforest Hotel. The unique setting which combines the beauty of the rainforest with the rustic feel of a working farm was absolutely perfect. Each bungalow has a sizeable deck with furniture [including a hammock] where we would relax in the evenings and enjoy the views. The restaurant exceeded our... More

At times like this I wish I were a better writer so I could find the words to share what an exceptional destination we found at the Chachagua Rainforest Hotel. We spent a week there with our six year old and it was absolute heaven. The hotel was everything we had hoped for. the grounds were lush and beautifully maintained.... More

My wife and I stayed three nights in a bungalow next to the stream that flows through the property. It had two queen beds, a great bathroom and a porch with a hammock. There is... More

If you have a 4wd, I definitely recommend you take the 2 mile trip up the rough road to this property. The property is beautifully situated within the rain forest with nicely appointed rooms, dining and staff.

We stayed here based on the reviews from other travelers. We rented a 4*4 in San Jose and it is a very nice drive of about three hours to get to the lodge. From the main road it is about 2-3 kilometers and this road is an adventure by itself. I loved it, quite rough but nice to see the... More

This hotel lacks good management. It has the potential of being paradise, but it is not. - Service in the restaurant is poor - People at the reception desk aren't friendly, even smiling is hard. - They almost tripled their rates in 3 years time, because they "changed things" - The old horse range, is deserted - They are proud...
