Holiday Homes in Upala

"Beautiful property in a remote location, with amazing staff. Great restaurant and beautiful well maintained grounds with even beer stocked in the fridge."

"Very cute property with very nice staff on some very beautiful grounds. No pool and no AC, but we did not mind. We enjoyed our one night there. The staff on the property showed us around and was very friendly and helpful."

"Great meals. We did not go to the national park but it is not far down the same road."

"Mi opinión es que el hotel esta muy bonito con una vegetación impresionante y mada mas , nuestra experiencia fue horrible, , para llegar al hotel fue catastrófico, la carretera no tiene condiciones de ninguna manera para llegar hasta tan lejos, todo cierra temprano y ya no puedes comprar ni un pomo de agua, no tienes acceso a salir a ningun lugar por los alrededores porque no pasan ni los taxis, osea esta en un lugar alejado de todo , solo puedes estar en el hotel y nada mas , tienes que pagar por ver la television, no permiten llevar ninguna bebida oh refrescos a la habitacion , solo si te abren las botellas alli , bebidas que tienes que pagar, el desayuno que te dan incluido es de reir , las pequeñas lascas d una sandia, de piña y 3 lascas de papaya , la ridiculez en persona, y ojo vengo de un pais que no falta la comida , osea no voy de viaje para solo comer, eso da verguenza a diferencia d otros hoteles ahi mismo en costa rica que dan sin tanta miseria, no puedes hacer tours fuera del hotel todo es ahi ,no hay musica, no hay diversión, alli no pasa nada solo el ruido de los grillos ,solo se lo recomiendo a las personas que quieran hacer un retiro espiritual tenia muchas expectativas con este hotel pk fui a celebrar mi cumpleaños y me dejo mucho que desear , deberian arreglar esa carretera pk la travesia no tiene nombre para llegar ahi, las piscinas de aguas termales super sucias , oxidadas , necesitan una mano , en fin no aguantamos ni un dia , nos tuvimos que ir de alli"

"This was a great place to truly experience the beauty of this part of Costa Rica. It is a long drive and one must be careful to take the right roads but we had a great experience and wish we could have stayed longer."

"We stayed a week and the entire trip was amazing! Patrick was a fantastic host. The view from the property was breathtaking and the daily visits from the toucans and other birds were wonderful. The property is a tremendous bargain, especially when you consider the gourmet, huge breakfasts everyday. So fabulous! It's a 10 minute trip to the supermarket and about an hour to La Fortuna for many of the touristy activities. Great roads, great restaurants all around. The place was clean, clean, clean. You won't regret renting this property! There were only two of us staying this time, but the place sleeps many more with private bathrooms all around. Loved it all!"

"Staff and breakfast were amazing, good location for Rio Celeste"

"We only stayed one night when travelling through, but wished we would have had more time to enjoy the horse riding and ziplines. The dinner and breakfast was prepared for us by wonderful staff, and they catered for vegan, vegetarian and carnivores in our family group, including our 2-yr old grandson. We enjoyed the pool and waterslide during our brief stop, and enjoyed walking around the property with company from the very friendly (but not in your face!) dogs. The only very small thing is the wind turbines that made a small hum, but not enough to distract or keep us awake. The room was comfortable and had a small kitchen that would have worked well had we needed it. The road we took was very bumpy the last few miles, and we were glad we rented a 4-wheel truck rather than a regular car."

"Booked the lodge for 2 nights and could have stayed 10, the host and his wife were absolutely wonderful. Cute little cabin surrounded by gardens and trees, bar fridge, fan, tv, wifi, and a nice bathroom stocked with clean towels. The very slight extra cost for breakfast is recommended and very tasty. When checking in we were given a paper with a map of the area, the host circled the free hot springs and other attractions. Very friendly to chat with. The lodge sits in front of the Miravalles Volcano. This is a great gem and worth the stay."
