    No hot shower. The beds could be a bit more comfortable.

    Nice and quiet location away from the main town. The porch is a very nice place to chill, cook your own diner, and enjoy the birds and other animals in the garden.

    WiFi is spotty. Electricity goes out briefly from time to time.

    It's hard to rate this unique lodging. We basically had it to ourselves, which we loved. We saw toucans and a jaguarundi on the large porch, monkees and a river otter in the jungle nearby. When Victor was around he was extremely friendly and helpful, but much of the time he was not. It helps to be campers and DIYers as we are, ready to wash a pot, light the industrial-sized gas stove, find the salt, and cook the pasta we had brought. As others have said, without a car you'd have to be real backpackers -- it's quite a ways to anything. Our room had both A/C and a fan, which we appreciated.

    This place is good for a short stay while you plan to visit Corcovado National park.

    It’s very rustic, no sound proving in the rooms - we’ve heard every word (including obscene ones) from our neighbors conversations, while staying with young children. Water in the shower is cold and tap water was running brownish.

    Friendly owner, beautiful terrace, pet friendly.

    Well, closeness to the nature means not only birds on the terrace but occasionally also some bugs in the bathroom.

    The location of the place is perfect if you look for peace, closeness to the nature. Drake bay and Playa Rincon are also close (~10mins by car). During our breakfast toucans and colibries were flying around. Victor gave us good tips for a short hike, starting just in front of the house.

    Beautiful house in the middle of nowhere/nature. Very friendly owner. I came here to do nothing and relax and I found the garden the perfect place to do so.

    Internet might be a problem for some, as there is no good network connection and the internet is slow. But if you just want to relax and have peace and quiet 👍 It is also easier if you drive as food shops are good 45 minutes walk.

    It’s peaceful and relaxing playing with many birds around and other animals popping regularly to get some bananas which is fun to watch. Plenty of places to do Yoga or any other exercises. Very comfy bed and you have access to the kitchen if you want to make your food as I am vegan. They offer breakfast and dinner which is super comfortable if you fancy local cuisine. My brother really enjoyed a hearty breakfast with eggs, ham rice and beans. Close walk to the wild beach and waterfalls. Also, they can help with organising local tours, smirking on the Isla del caño was absolutely fantastic.

And you get a bonus friendly doggo!!!

    Remote and difficult road to drive. We left early after one uncomfortable night

    The pictures made it look much better than it was. The bed was not comfortable and no hot water. Water was not potable but there was good air conditioning. The owner was nice and helpful. No restaurant services

    We have spent a wonderful time in Corcovado Mountain house. We came to Costa Rica to observe wildlife and this was the highlight of our three weeks trip. The hotel is next to the jungle and primary forest. We saw toucans, monkeys, and a lot of various animals all day coming to the garden of the hotel. If you are lucky, you can see tapir as well. Victor is a very friendly host and knows much about wildlife. He can offer you a jungle tour to see the waterfalls. It was the best tour we had in Costa Rica and absolutely worth the money!

    The rooms are comfortable and the garden is green and lush. Having coffee in the morning on the terrace listening to the birds was amazing. It is out of town and surrounded by forest which was perfect for us. The use of the kitchen was a great help. Victor is a great host and very helpful. He took us on a fantastic walk of the local forest which was just opposite his house, so my son could try to spot animals and insects. He even managed to talk to us in English which was a great help as we don't speak Spanish. There is also a great beach just a short drive away. Perfect place.

    Nothing that I can think of.

    Absolutely wonderful stay! I got welcomed by the very friendly and helpful owner and a baby Tucan that he rescued from the road! The location is beautifully situated in the jungle and gives you the opportunity to spot many animals around the property! Nice and spacious rooms as well. I would love to come back!

    Great location with a nice garden in the back where monkeys, tayras, and other animals come to eat bananas. Basic accommodation but everything I needed. Victor is a great guy and he will do all he can to make sure you enjoy your stay. There is a nice, free Jungle hike right in front of the property. You can freely use the kitchen and refrigerator, etc. I enjoyed my time here. Also, there is a laundry service for guests at a very reasonable price. I do strongly recommend having a car.
