    Host was great, but one evening had a quite loud party, which was impacting our nature experience.

    Great experience with the glamping cupola, kitchen access with monkeys literally having a breakfast with you.

    Our check-in was slow due to an internet issue, but we got a discount. The bed could have been a bit more firm. The tire path from our shipping container room could use a hand rail or at least better drainage and more gravel filling.

    I loved the private outdoor shower (open to the sky, but attached to the room). The balcony with comfortable hammock was great, too. The pools are nice, but we weren’t there quite long enough to take advantage when it was warmer. The outdoor cooking area is also nice. It’s a very unique place to stay. My husband was amused by the music and singing (“karaoke”) that lasted many hours on Saturday.

    The dome is a little far from restaurants (which is nice to feel a bit remote) and the beach, especially in rainy season, you want to plan on driving or using taxis. Payment was cash only for me which added an extra step to track down an ATM and added some service fees so keep that in mind!

    The Dome was super fun and cozy to stay in! the area was pretty quiet and I almost felt like I had the place to myself. The pool area is a great place to relax with great views! The host was very responsive and helpful planning activities during my stay!

    Some of items are falling apart , this facility in good hands would be nice. But you see a lot of small things which are no idea why left there . Some old plants etc. swimming pools are not very clean. You have a feeling that this is just business to get money from you lacking love and care. One day we didn’t have water at all in the morning. It’s fine to stay there for one night. But for more nights I would definitely look for something better.

    Great quirky property with gorgeous views and lovely rooms. Be prepared to climb uphill with your luggage to reach your room/ the pool/ kitchen. Host was lovely and responds very quickly to messages. Room was idyllic- particularly loved the outdoor shower The pools are cool although, could have done with a clean at the bottom

    The bed is hugely squeeky and makes noice everytime you turn around. Matras should probably be replaced. For Some reason, there is a bureau chair in the room, which is also extremely dirty. Also the hammock should be washed. We had only 1 wine glass instead of 2

    Nice view, good location. Shower is fun being outside. Service and hosts are great and very helpful

    The only thing that didn't suit me so well was the location because I didn't have a car so it meant it was more difficult for me to reach shops/restaurant.

    There is great attention to detail on the glamping pods. The finish is really great and it was well equipped and comfortable. The outdoor bathroom and shower was great. I had visits from a few lizards including an Iguana and a Gecko. You can see wildlife from the balcony. It's very relaxing to be immersed in the trees with the sounds of nature.

    The hike up to our room with luggage in hot weather was not great. 😅 but, worth it!

    We loved the location, removed from Quepos just a bit so it was quiet, but still close to all amenities.

    The stairway to #1 could of been lit better at night. It was a quite steep stairway, not recommended for anyone with ANY mobility issues

    Breakfast? Location was great nicely set back from main roads, which made it fairly quiet.

    A bit far from the city and the beach. You need a car to reach the city, closest restaurant or supermarket. It is not a 5 stars place.

    Original place in the middle of the jungle. We saw a lot of monkeys crossing our balcony. The host was very nice and pleasant.

    A chair inside the dome would be good and some hangers to hang stuff would also be nice. But except for that we had a nice stay and the price-value ratio is good.

    Clean area, nice idea with the dooms. Nice outdoor area (terrace). Staff very friendly, especially the guy from the night shift

    I felt the cleanliness could have been better. Also, the reception area/owner's cottage would have loud music on every night which was annoying . There was no room service every day which I guess is understandable since this is "glamping".

    Quirky and cool room. Particularly the "open air" shower which is rather fun when it is also raining.

    Just some details as a place to hang clothes, and the hot water that didn't work in my room for 2 days.

    Great hotel, very authentic with a stunning forest view, and very nice swimming pool (handcrafted). Good service, despite not offering breakfast. Marjorie was very nice, and the owner is a nice Italian, always in a good mood and available!

    Room on first night wasn’t great - rather small, no view and rather a long way to the private bathroom.

    Well, our "igloo" was very cute, and big, and special....but no bathroom. The bathroom is nice and private just for our room but is external to the room, not connected. No big deal in nice weather. We got 2 days of heavy rain.....to go, in the night to the bathroom under heavy rain was a nightmare. You are back in the room completely wet...and the room become super wet and humid too. The air circulation in the "igloo" is not enough the avoid humidity in the rainy weather. So do not get this room if yougo there in rainy season....the other 2 "igloo style" rooms have bathroom inside.

    The place has a very good location, of course if you do have a car. It is s quite isolated but no far from main road. The rooms are only 5, two are kind of "igloo" shape, and a 3th of the same type is being buit when we were there....then the place has 2 normal rooms. There is not a normal swimming pool but a series of 3/4 small swimming pools (jacuzzi type....but bigger than a jacuzzi and smaller than a small swimming pool) connected and the effect is supercool...very very nice. The rooms are nice and the igloo we were in had many nice point and some bad points. Anyway it was original. I think will be great in good season. We were there under rain and that kind of room revealed some issues when there is heavy rain. The owner-manager is a very nice man, super nice and friendly. He is doing a good job, and with some adjustments I think the place will be really nice

    It would be easier if the toilet is next to the dome and maybe a totaly closed door because there was a Lizard in our badroom :p

    The domes and the beautiful view in the jungle, we spotted a lot of wild animals! Very friendly staff!

    A little difficult to get up the stairs and slippery when it rains. Not suitable for people with disabilities or older people. We had lots of bugs and the bathroom door was glass facing the bedroom so there was no privacy.

    The owner and all the people that work here are super nice. The room was extremely clean and the pool was super cool. The shower was so awesome. Showering it the middle of a storm was fantastic.
