“Great”

Very friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful location. Great breakfast. Comfortable beds.

Stunning location. Lots of birds around the property. The cabins are clean and luxurious. It was cold at night so the were extra blankets were nice. The decks off the back overlook the river. The staff are great. They recommended fantastic restaurants. Try the local trout. The breakfast at the property was the best we had in Costa Rica! We also went on the quetzel tour in the morning which didn't disappoint. It was given by the owner who knows loads about quetzels.

“Excellent value property overlooking the river in San Gerado de Dota”

A lovely light room with great views from the balcony and the benefit of being able to park right outside. We appreciated the good facilities in the room including fresh coffee and a fridge. Great to watch a variety of hummingbirds and other birds by the cafe. Very helpful information when we arrived about local walks and places to visit.

“Perfectly located, good value, family run property where everyone made me feel welcome.”

Excellent location alongside Savegre Rio in the heart of the bird watching habitat, with personalised, high quality guiding available from a family member (Carlos - excellent). Small, clean, comfortable rooms with duvets to keep out the cold. Very helpful staff. Simple but tasty breakfast prepared for us after our dawn quetzal watching tour was over. Recommend as a good, family run option for independent bird watchers as an alternative to some of the larger properties in the Savegre valley.

Very basic cabins but lovely and clean. Excellent location for birds watching. Lovely staff.

“Loved it.”

Lovely setting, with the river flowing below our rooms, many birds and excellent hummingbird feeders. Seeing a quetzal fly past us as we sat on our balcony was very nice!

“It was truly magical! It‘s been the best stay in Costa Rica so far.”

The location of the property is excellent, located right at the river. It is very clean and the bed is super comfortable. If we had known, we would have stayed longer.

Good location for birders. More than 10 species of birds are around their feeder. Quetzal is watched close the lodge. Room is clean and comfortable. Breakfast was very good

We had two cabins, one for our teenagers and one for us. Both were wonderfully spacious and comfortable with balconies overlooking the garden and river. It was cold at night but the beds had thick duvets and extra blankets were provided. This is such a beautiful place, with a balcony where they feed the hummingbirds and numerous other birds - you could sit there for hours watching them. The breakfast was delicious. It is owned by a family and they were all super friendly. We recommend getting up early to do the quetzal tour. They have obviously put a lot of effort into making this a fabulous place. We stayed an extra night as we loved it so much.

“Fantastic for birders, great place to see the Quetzal”

The central bird watching balcony was great and comfortable with beautiful views of birds and river. Very caring and friendly team of workers. The cabin was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was fine

“Outstanfing stay in San Girardo de Dota”

Large ptivate cabine close to nature with large balcony facing the mountain. We saw green toucanets from the balcony while having breakfast! Comfortable bed with lots of blankets. Hot water available. Large parking area. No kitchen but tea and coffee machine in the cabine. Don't be too late for check-in as road to get there is a steep and it is not easy to drive at night.

“Paradise for birders.”

Excellent place to stay if you’re a birder. We saw the famous quetzal bird in the tree behind the property on both the evening and the next morning of our stay.

Was not prepared for how beautiful the location was. Hummingbird feeders were lively! Quetzals in the backyard! the lovely seating area by the river! At check-in she shared a plethora of activities nearby.

“Beautiful place and people: made even more special by the Quetzal”

Beautiful cabins set in the hamlet of San Gerardo de Dota that exceeded our expectations. Family run, with excellent English spoken, this place, although off the beaten track and down a very windy road was a wonderful find. The breakfasts were so good with recommendations for places to eat supper readily available. Walks also explained and the botanical garden walk a couple of KM's down the road was pleasurable way to spend a Sunday morning with the binos. The highlight of the trip was to see the resplendent quetzal in the trees outside our room. Just made our stay perfect in every way. Thank you.

“Come here for the birds!”

The outstanding features of this hotel are the birdlife ( the hotel puts out feeders for both hummingbirds and fruit eaters, and we spent hours on the terrace watching the birds) and the location right beside the beautiful, wild, Savegre river. Our 2 roomed cabin was spacious and comfortable, with a veranda overlooking the river. The previous day our neighbours had seen quetzals in the garden, though we were not so lucky.

“A beautiful location and excellent birding in the area.”

Lovey comfortable cabins along the river .Breakfast was excellent and family run owners were very friendly and shared local information.The birding is excellent and would highly recommend a bird guide to explore the area.

Nice, spacy cabin in beautiful garden nearby the river. Birdfeeder in the garden allows you to see many colorful birds. Quetzal birds can be spotted in the neighbourhood, if you get up with the sun.

“We wanted to stay in the area and this was what we chose. I would happily come back here again”

Angie at reception was very helpful. The staff were very good. The view from the chalet was wonderful. Breakfast was very good.
