Best Resorts in San Gerardo de Dota

"The perfect place to stay to maximize your chances of seeing quetzals. Not the cheapest but worth every dollar. Beautiful grounds even in the rain. Very friendly and attentive staff. Good restaurant with great service. Truly excellent guide in Greibin."

"Amazing spot with great views, wildlife, food and service "

"Loved our stay, even though it rained almost every late afternoon it did not spoil any of our excursions, we had a wonderful time, the house was perfect for such a large group, the outdoor kitchen was so cozy loved the monkeys that greeted us every morning loved the view in the eve."

"Excelente hotel! Siempre feliz de volver! "

"We traveled with two other families, 6 adults, 7 kids age 5-16 and had the BEST time here. The staff were all so gracious and friendly. Esteban is a complete gem. He helped us learn about Costa Rica, taught us about all the plants and wild life, helped us with our Spanish and was just generally a joy to have present. We went horseback riding at the falls (definitely recommend) and went to Manuel Antonio national park (also recommend with a guide!). We had dinner cooked for us several nights and ate at a couple of the local restaurants. Mirador Los Chorros (on the hill at the turn) was one of our favorites:) can’t say enough great things about this spot. We’re already scheming for how we can make it back! "

"Its very peaceful and safe for tourist! Beautiful area and nature"

"Hotel Zima is a great place to stay in the center of San Isidro. Staff is very good and we will definitely consider staying here again if in the area. "

"Peaceful, Authentic, and Truly Special – Santa Juana Lodge My friend Vickie and I spent several unforgettable days at Santa Juana Lodge & Nature Reserve, and we can’t recommend it enough. Getting there was part of the adventure—a scenic four-hour drive from the airport, with the final stretch on a gravel road through rain and cows! But once we arrived, we were welcomed into a peaceful paradise. Our private casita had stunning views of the rainforest and distant Pacific, and we were surrounded by the sounds of nature—birds, monkeys, and fresh mountain air. The lodge blends eco-luxury with deep respect for Costa Rican culture and sustainability. Meals were included, and they were a true highlight—delicious, locally inspired, and beautifully presented. Huge thanks to Lady, Julia, Maribel, and Liz for their incredible cooking and hospitality. Everyone we met was warm and welcoming—from Allan and Hugo, who shared the lodge’s inspiring history, to Andres, Ariel, Randal, Cucho, Karolina, Liz, and Alexis, who made everything run so smoothly. If you're looking for a stay that offers comfort, connection, and adventure in a truly unique setting—Santa Juana is the place. We loved every moment and hope to return!"

"Is a beautiful place indeed the nature is breath taking, but few misses like the internet signal didn't reach oor room and the place is in a remote area so no internet also. Plus the 50 dollars per day for a dog a bit expensive. The rest amazing, friendly staff great views great food o recommend it "
