Pros (+) Amazing 4-night stay at Lapa Rios, definitely one of the best hotels I've ever been to. The beautiful room, the view on the Pacifc ocean, the great food, the kindness and professionnalism of the staff, all the animals you can spot so close to you (monkeys, macau, toucans, frogs, etc.). The park of the hotel is a good before-taste of the almost nearby Corcovado national park not to be missed, with ...
Cons (-) Had to leave after only 4 nights...

Martin, Nov 2022
Pros (+) We are traveling to Costa Rica quite often and this resort in the jungle is very unique, animals come to you everywhere, food is perfect, nobody disturbs you there.
Cons (-) We paid more than 2.000 USD for night, for that we would like to have someone who would be there for us. First day we spoke with consierge, but we never saw him again. Other hotels have receptions, this does not.
