They really cared about our experience and went out of their way to make it good! The food was fabulous, and it was awesome having a pool for those hot and humid afternoons. Highly recommend 👌

“Our best stay in Costa Rica thanks to the amazing staff”
From the moment we arrived we were greeted by the most friendly and helpful staff. Amanda and Braulio always went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable, welcoming and a good experience. The free breakfast and coffee every morning was beautiful and dinner every night was incredible some of the best food we’ve had in Costa Rica thanks to the amazing chef on site. Braulio made amazing cocktails and even can make any you request that aren’t on the menu. We also got to try Amanda’s famous coconut mango dessert which was out of this world. The room was super clean and comfortable and the property was well maintained. Could not fault our stay. Thanks for having us, we will be back.

Super friendly and warm staff, very flexible, accommodated to all our needs. We came back from Corcovado National park and had a lot of wet stuff, they offered to do our laundry free of charge. We were able to leave our car and suitcases at the hotel whilst being in the national park for a night, which was such a luxury! Very private hotel with a beautiful garden (spotted multiple tropical animals), a nice pool and bar area. Highly recommend this hotel if you're staying in Puerto Jimenez!

This was such a wonderful place to stay! The apartment was clean and smelled absolutely wonderful. The garden was a small paradise with lots of lizards and monkeys and birds in the trees. The pets (little fluffy dog Bruno and cat Gatita) really made our stay perfect for our kids! The owner was very sweet.

“Very good location to stay if you are using Adventura Kayak Tours.”
We booked the Osa Lodge because it is walking distance fronthe kayak excursion establishment. We had a reservation there for a mangrove jungle tour. Very heavy rains were coming on Wednesday so we were able to change our reservations to Tuesday at the last minute. The staff were extremely helpful.

“Great place to spend the night. The birds there were numerous, and I loved hearing their songs.”
No breakfast, but great coffee! The host was friendly and helpful. She arranged a taxi for me when it was time to leave.

“Good night rest, good coffee”
One reason I picked this place was for the pool and it is a small but very welcoming place where I was happy to land after the drive to Puerto J. Shady trees surround and we saw birds right from there. The bungalows are comfy and the ac works great, but the fan kept us cool at night just fine. Our hostess was wonderful, too! Thanks for the coffee in the am and use of the shared kitchen.
