Farmstay in Cantón Upala

"The meals were fantastic. The rooms were spacious and clean. The sauna and hot tubs were awesome! Loved the tree top bridges! Carlos made our trip to Rincon awesome. He had fantastic suggestions and made us feel very welcome everyday! "

"Beautiful setting in the middle of nature with great variety if wildlife and activities on premises. Not quiet, as at night all animals come alive, but for us the jungle noises and rain were super relaxing. Excellent service and food. Ownership truly cares about the environment and growing this ecosystem. Fantastic! One of a kind!"

"The food was delicious and every place we went was clean and beautiful "

"It was off season and there were very few guests but I really enjoyed it. Clean, pretty, nice staff. I would stay there again easily. "

"Clean rooms but a little old. Walking distance to Taco Bell, McDonalds and Starbucks."

"Large clean pool!"

"The staff is very friendly. In the Spa highly recommended and Mrs. Ana very good therapist. All very neat and clean."

"I can't say enough for what a great time we had at Kakao Lodge. I was skeptical at first since I usually like staying in my chain hotels that provide all the normal American comforts. But after staying here, my mind has totally changed. You can't describe how awesome it is to be able to see a half dozen different species of exotic frogs at night, or a sloth while eating breakfast, or tropic birds singing to you in the morning. And don't forget about breakfast. Everyday, we had homemade to order breakfast. Finally, if you're a gym rat like me, there's a gym that's $5/day to drop in that's a 3 minute walk from Kakao Lodge. We were also fortunate enough to be there while the owner, Laura, was there. Her and her husband are delightful people if you're lucky enough to get to meet them as well. If you want to experience the rainforest of Costa Rica while still having a comfy bed to go back to at night, I can't say enough for staying here. "

"Amazing place. Great for family with kids. This was our first night in CR and it exceeded my expectations."
