San Rafael Holiday Rentals

"What a fun place to stay! It was GLAMPING at it's finest. Comfy bed with nice linens, nice bathroom and shower area - - although it would be nice to have better/stronger/brighter lighting in all areas. (but, that might have been by design as this is an ecolodge.). We enjoyed comfortable seating on the deck of the unit overlooking the valley. The sound of rushing water was nice to fall asleep to. The gathering area / cafeteria was well stocked with WIFI, music, views, tables and chairs for lounging, snack bar with great food (we had avocado toast) and drink! The restaurant attached (not physically) to Tami Lodge is FABULOUS. Breakfast - included - was fit for a king! We also had a take out picnic breakfast for one of our days and an evening meal off an impressive menu. The best part was the staff. Kind, caring and attentive to every need. I learned that while this place is a lodge that anyone can book, it is also a space put in place to use with groups brought in to volunteer for 'earth watch' type programs - - volunteer projects for helping the community - as well as sharing techniques and education about protecting the precious cloud forest environment. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat! OH - in case you are worried about bugs and creepy crawly things - - the only 'creature' I found near my space was a spider.... and I have lots of them right here at home. "

"Road to.. It was a great ride on the dirt road to Santajuana alongside palm tree trimmers, cattle, motorbikes, and the required 4-wheel momentum to make it up into the hill. Clean woodsy classy designed room with comfortable bed in the screen sided cabin, plus 270 degree view on the deck, while we appreciated the rain soundtrack and viewed fog, haze & gorgeous sunsets meant a new level of peace, bookended with hikes to and dips in waterfalls. While power went out briefly, backup generator provided power & WIFI in main lodge/dining area. There are guided tours for booking, or the kind generous host provides a local tour which folks loved cuz he shares his local knowledge and wisdom of the rainforest they know as home. We took a couple hikes they recommended and thoroughly enjoyed. The food was cooked by the staff, many of whom are of the same family as the hosts. Solid attention was paid to making sure the food served was to our liking. Enough variety to keep it interesting and to serve different pallets while clearly much of it being sourced a few steps away. On the return of one hike we passed by the vegetable and fruit garden being tended to by la madre, showing us the various herbs she cultivates. The highlight was the local family who worked and managed the lodge. They were inspirational, kind,warm and caring. The initial welcoming and subsequent engaging conversations were fun & interesting. Inquire about the history of this nature preserve… Fascinating!"

"The whole hotel doesn’t look like the photos. There are cockroaches and dirty. There is a whole night club downstairs and you will not be able to sleep with how loud it is in this hotels. Loud people loud cars everywhere. The bathroom smelled of sewage. Your in a prison where you have to ask them to open the door to leave and come back in. Horrible experience don’t waste your money.
