We had my 78 year old mother with us so the climb to the car wasn’t ideal. For you her legs, no bother though.

Great place. So relaxing. You will get to see some blue morpho in the mornings fluttering along the stream.

Nothing, it was great for me!

The lodging is literally in the forest, but there is car access and has everything you need. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the accommodation is clean and organized. There is a stream that runs through the property, although it carries little water, it is preserved and completes the scene of peace and tranquility. For someone like me who loves nature, I had a great experience!

Leaving!

We loved everything understanding that this facility is not for everyone but it's exactly what we were looking for and the personnel on site were excellent, food excellent, room excellent+, need I say more... The location was just as good being between the BriBri area, Panama border, all the attractions on the Southern Caribbean coast. We could not have asked for more! On my first rolled in, the driveway is a bit humbling and we thought we wouldn't like that it does not have air conditioning but it didn't seem to matter there. Breakfasts are always wonderful with fresh fruits jellies and jams and crepes, we had the pools for ourselves. The staff on site was exceptional (I'm bad at names) and the grounds were kept natural and beautiful. All in all we were there for seven nights and would definitely go back! 👍👍👍👍

The location sent with the confirmation is not exact which made it a little hard to find as there is no reception. It is correct on Google and maps.me though. Breakfast was not as extensive (limited to basics) based on what we got in other stays.

Amazing location, amazing lodges in the middle of the jungle, amazing staff, exactly like on the photos. There are a couple of small houses perfectly placed in the jungle far enough from each other for having enough privacy and a little creek running by.. For the kids it was a great area to explore as there were many animals and instects around all the time. Pool is very nice close to the breakfast / common area while the beach is just 4min by car down the road. I want to mention here the two volunteers Pedro and Elsa that were just amazing with our kids. Many thanks to them for making our 2 days there so incredible. All staff is very nice, very attentive and helpful. They were always around and available. Absolutely great price - value ratio.

The bungalows felt a little damp and the shower is a bit cold sometimes 😉

In the middle of the jungle. Awesome place to stay. The pool was a nice extra. The hostesses were awesome. Really felt close to nature. Not a problem but good to know: Wifi only available in communal area - which was very nice to hang out. Kitchen had all utensils you needed, be it a little old. 😊

the place is lacking a cozy and comfortable chill area

the staff was very more than accommodating, the place was stunning, the cabins were well designed and comfortable. we’ve been living in Costa Rica for years now and Finca Ardilla was the most impressive setting that we’ve stayed so far

Very beautiful, surrounded by nature.

It’s amazing how the Lodges are located in the Jungle.

Stayed in November 2022

Steep driveway down to the parking lot. Only the master bed had mosquito netting, bathroom could use some soap or shampoo.

We are thankful and happy for the time we spent at Finca Ardilla. We enjoyed our room and the community area surrounded by nature as well as the open-air swimming pool at night. Jaén, a staff member, helped us find services in the area and prepared a nice breakfast every morning and was always ready to help.

nothing

all the staff were so friendly and helpful. I’m gluten free and each day they went to get me delicious fresh cakes for my breakfast, different each time. It’s beautiful jungle here with a pool, what’s not to love! last but not least the animals here - they have 4 dogs and 3 cats, so friendly. it’s private - you don’t hear your neighbours and you have your own mini bungalow

The property looks very different from the photos in the page. Its very old and filthy. The pool was green and with leaves, the room didnt had wifi, and the sheets were smelly and old. The staff were some foreign volunteers that werent around.

Really nothing.

Not too much
