No lunch or dinner on site. Most days lunch wasn’t needed however, was presented as 3 meals available on site. Room was sparse but functional - suggest adding a chair or two so there is more seating than the bed. Campus was beautiful and the resident chickens and cat were entertaining.

We all loved the family and staff!

Excellent and very hands on! Still waiting for our recipies!

Very informative and fun!

Hotel was quite run down and needs repairs. Great location and views but bedding was torn, sink had leaks and the water pressure on the shower was very low. There was a shortage of towels and issues with the dryers being broken. Breakfast was tasteless and bland. Tables not cleared at breakfast and dirty.

Crew was so friendly and views were amazing

Great wildlife and wonderful guide. We saw and learned a lot

A pretty hotel at the top of the hill in Manuel Antonio. There were rooms spread out. Our room was one flight up stairs for top floor room with beautiful ocean view. A shuttle is offered several times a day to the public beach. The hotel has a beautiful pool and restaurant overlooking the Pacific ocean.

A beautiful hotel spread out over lush gardens and the hot springs are a blessing to have on rainy (rainforest) days espedcially after rigorous hikes. The staff is especially accommodating, with transport offered to get around if needed, umbrellas provided in rooms and main buildings, and several excellent restaurant options for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Lots of beautiful birds to be seen, as well as a sloth or two.

The park, while beautiful has a trail that is not as well maintained with railings . It included steep climbs and hanging bridges ( unexpected) that were also not in good condition ( as Mystico). It was difficult to enjoy the beautiful scenery of waterfalls and forest as we made our way through the more difficult trail. our guide, Alex, was very good, and very supportive and patient. He was very knowledgable of the area and we learned alot. He stopped to show anything he thought might be of interest, - animals, insects, etc. Also, the activity was longer than expected as the travel to the park was over 30 minutes.

A fun and very well orchestrated tour of a local chocolate and coffee farm. Very thorough, lots of sampling! The tour guides are very enthusiastic and great with public speaking.

We enjoyed the walk through the beautiful garden with Ron, who is very enthusiastic about birding. unfortunately, the birds were not as accommodating as he would have liked, though we/he did see many and shared the list with us afterwards. We had a wonderful time speaking with him over breakfast and learning more about nature in costa Rica. The activity was scheduled for 5:30-7:30. It was actually longer, as we had breakfast after the walk.

Mariano picked us up along with another couple who shared our walking tour of the farm with Huber. He shared his family's history and experience operating the small farm . We learned about their local plants, produce, spanish names - it was very inclusive and immersive experience. We then joined a cook and other volunteers in the kitchen for some chopping, prepping and tortilla making, before sitting down with them to a delicious meal of orroz con pollo with fresh salad from the garden.

We arrived to find the lake choppy due to raining. The guide was very patient, offered to use the pontoon if we felt uncomfortable. We tested the water, rain stopped and we had a very enjoyable kayak ride for 2 hours, close to shore

Mariano guided through this beautiful reserve. It was more rigorous and steep than we expected, but Mariano was patient. Very enthusiastic and informative, stopping to find insects, reptiles and other animals native to the forest. The reserve is very well maintained and we felt very safe on the bridges. We enjoyed our time with him
