We stayed at the lodge for wonderful 4 nights. Edu and Sabrina try everything to make your stay unforgettable. The food is delicious and typical local. Edu is raised in this area and knows all about the animals around and IN the lodge. Many animals we spotted in the corcovado national park, we have actually seen in the lodge while relaxing in the hammock. If you like it you can go fishing with Edu and prepare your own fish. There is no electricity, just candles, mucho romantico. Cu again!

The welcoming atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff (hard to even call them that because Edu and Sabrina were more like friends!), and the beautiful location made my trip great. The owners truly care about their community, the animals and plants in Costa Rica, and helping visitors see the best from the Osa Peninsula. It was like dignified camping...no hot water or electricity allows you to really live off the grid, which was a great escape from my daily life! Plus they are great cooks!!

Truely the gem of my entire trip. Edu was awesome and picked me up from the airport, where we walked down the runway to his place. With only two flights a day, the proximity to the airport isn't a problem. I saw one other tourist in three days along the beach nearby and Edu set me up with a tour to Corcovado Naitonal Park. No electrcity but it didn't make a difference. The natural beauty and peacefulness of the place is truely special. I will be back.
