    Highly recommend staying here, the accommodation is fantastic the bungalows are each unique and built by the wood on the farm by the owners, fantastic quality and attention to detail. The owner could not have been more welcoming, and took us for a night walk around his nature trail and pointed out different animals and plants. Wonderful nature trail with beautiful river. Breakfast was fantastic, with homemade products from the farm. Wish we could have stayed longer.

    Everything was so beautiful and well designed but the best part was the hospital of the owners. So incredibly kind and welcoming! They went above and beyond to make sure I had a good time :) The breakfast is also very good, so many homemade dishes all from the farm produce. Truly a magical place!

    Peaceful, secluded and beautifully designed farmstay B&B. The hosts were so hospitable and quietly attentive, providing lots of information, and thoughtful additions for our comfort. The breakfast was also excellent with farm produce included. It is a little off the beaten track and the driveway needs a little negotiation if you are driving, but the location and comfort of Poponé are definitely worth the effort! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

    I would put the wifi password in the room somewhere. But that’s just a suggestion.

    This is a very interesting property to stay at. I enjoyed staying at a local farm with a local family. The room was very nice and the bed comfortable. Breakfast was great. George was a wonderful host. It is a little off the beaten path and the last bit of road to get there becomes pretty bumpy. We had a small 2WD suv and were fine. Definitely a different experience. Very rustic property, but perfectly comfortable room. You have your own little lodge instead of a room. Really cool and fun. If you enjoy staying at a local family run place you will enjoy it here. Wish we had more time to stay, just one night on the way to Parque Nacional Tortuguero. Thanks George!

    The last part of the street to the property was bumping. Not so nice in bad weather, but it was worth the drive since the place deserves it.

    It’s a magic place. Everything excellent taste. Excellent breakfast. From the bathroom window we saw a tucan and other beautiful birds. You hear the nearby river and you can have a walk there.The owners were very nice and helpful.

    Nothing, it's a perfect little spot 1.5hrs from the airport and an excellent first stop to prepare you for your adventure.

    This is a charming lodge set in the jungle, a 5 min walk from the farm. Their is a lovely big common area with all the cooking and cleaning facilities nearby. We arrived late, which wasn't a problem as the family was always there to accommodate you. Breakfast was excellent with everything home grown and organic.

    Only the internet connection wasn't that good in our room. But at Jorge's place there is Wi-fi.

    Jorge was a wonderful host. He made us the most delicious and fresh breakfast that you can imagine with lots of own ingredients (own milk, eggs, yoghurt, marmelade etc.). The place is just beautiful and relaxing. Unfortunately, we had to move on so we couldn't enjoy the nature for very long.

    It is a really special accommodation in the middle of the countryside (but still good accessible by car). The lodge is surrounded by nature and is on the property of the owners, which are so kind. The breakfast is freshly made with some home made products of their farm. If you are in Costa Rica stay at Popomé Farm & Lodge, it is worth it - 100% recommended.

    We didn’t realise it was so close to a river. The sound of the waterflow is very present, but it did not keep us awake (maybe on the contrary 😏).

    Warm welcome in excellent English, beautiful cabin clearly decorated with great care, superb breakfast with delicious goat milk and goat yoghurt from the farm (and I don’t like goat cheese!). Spent 24 days in Costa Rica and the only time we slept uninterrupted was here. Super private. 1-day old and 1-week old baby goats🥰. Thanks to the owner we saw a peanuthead (bug). Very good restaurant nearby (secreto azul).

    It was a very very clean, modern house that was fully in vibe with nature. The night we stayed, it was raining and the atmosphere was great (also we have not seen any bugs!) It had everything, many plugs, towels, toiletries and a mosquito net. The host was very friendly and helped whenever possible. He prepared a delicious breakfast with farm products. There is also a small river just a few steps downstairs, it was just not a good weather for us. Really, all in all, if traveling to or from Tortuguero, this is worth a stop. We will come back!

    Just remember to get your hiking shoes out….highheels and loafers are not ideal in this place. Internet intermittent and low signal in rooms.

    Very nice and friendly host. Adviced excellent locations to visits and keeps you away from any tourist traps. If you want to experience a sleepover in the rainforest away from big hotels and mass tourism then thats the place to stay. Excellent freshly prepared breakfast every morning.

    We stayed here on our way from the north to Cahuita, and it was such a delightful stop! The cabins are beautifully crafted, filled with small, thoughtful details that showcase the owner's creativity and artistry, giving the whole place a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The farm itself is charming, with adorable goats, sheep, and two lovely dogs that add to the experience. Jorge, the owner, was incredibly hospitable—he made delicious pancakes for breakfast, served with homemade goat yogurt and strawberry jam. Before we left, he surprised us with his homemade ice cream; I had breadfruit, and my husband tried the coconut and fruit flavor. Both were amazing! Also he showed us a rare peanut head bug, it was so strange! The property is so peaceful, spotlessly clean, and perfect for relaxation. It’s an ideal place to stop on the way to the Caribbean coast. Highly recommended!

    A beautiful accommodation, which is a little out of the way. But that's exactly what we love. There are two bungalows, which are beautiful! 10/10. There is a lot to discover in the garden, as well as on the djubgel path. It is perfect for a break from travelling and to relax. The breakfast was delicious and the owners were super friendly!

    No wifi in the room. Almost no wifi in the common area. A car is required as there is nothing around.

    We stayed at Popone Farm & Lodge on our way from the Pacific to the Atlantic coast. It was a nice stop. The lodges are located in the countryside (10 Minuted from the highway). The rooms are nicely decorated and had everything for the comfortable stay. The common area in front of the camps is just perfect to enjoy warm evenings in the nature. The rooms are new and in very good condition. Good breakfast. Super nice and friendly owners.

    Amazing place. Fantastic bungalows/cabins with comfortable beds, hot showers and fluffy towels. Delicious breakfast - homemade goats milk yogurt and strawberry jam with pancakes and fresh fruit. There is an open air kitchen with a fridge and microwave to prepare your own lunch/dinner. Dogs, goats and a friendly horse are your neighbours. There is a lovely woodland circular trail to a creek on your doorstep. Lovely friendly owners. Great place to stop on the way from San Jose to Tortuguero. Several restaurants in nearby Guápiles 15 min drive.
