We spent 2 nights in Lost Iguana. We had a good time, but we didn't spend too much time in the resort. We did many excursions in which they helped us book. The reception was very nice and accommodating. In the middle of our first night our electricity went out. But besides that, the view and the accommodation was beautiful. Be sure to bring bug repellent. Bonus: delicious coffee!

The resort has beautiful grounds. Room was average well at least ours. We had a standard room which was very dark. Room could use more lighting than the 1 tiny light lamp and dim ceiling fan light. Also could be better to help block the gaps under the doors to prevent the number of bugs that get into the room. The staff was nice and the breakfast buffet was good. Nice walking trails. You need a car as this place is not walkable.

Lost Iguana is set up on a hill in the middle of the rain forest. They do a perfect job of blending comfort with the natural surroundings. The hot pool and cool pool are great. The servers and the bartenders are excellent.
