Everything about this place is next level. Comfortable bed/pillows. All I could hear at night was the wildlife lulling me to sleep. No noise of cars or people. Not to mention the privacy. No other guest are in close proximity to your accommodation. Breakfast is a unique experience. The table setting took me back to being a child when etiquette was practiced. The service, cleanliness were impeccable and I won’t spoil the surprise with the food. I give Colina secreta a 12 out of 10 for me!

This was our First Glamping experience and Colina Secreta met our expectations. Great spacious cabin with amenities. The wildlife didn't disappoint. A bit of a trekk to get to the cabin if you have mobility issues but we liked being at the hill to enjoy the scenery. Staff was very helpful and responsive to any inquiries. The location is close to a ton of restaurants optins and shops.

Amazing place! Very friendly and helpful owners. Celina is a wonderful cook, her breakfasts are impeccable. The house is beautifully furnished with extremely comfortable beds. The house is only a short trip from the main road, walkable but a car or motorbike makes it easier.

On arrival it felt just like in Tarzan, romantic and the reception service was very good, Miguel did everything to explain and make us feel welcome. They arranged the suitcases too. Once in our tent, the beds were very nicely made and the style is nice too, though the moisture was very high. This means there is a lot of mildew and wet tents and wood. This type of stay is an experience we wanted, though we found that the maintenance definitely needs to be upped! Kitchen is bare, leaking pipe, wood surfaces worn, toilet seat needs replacing etc. Generally we won’t do it again especially with kids, as with the storm we had the second night, we had a short sleep. First noght too of course to get used to the sounds and no light, but that we expected;-). Breakfast was ultimately good though, and again great service. The wifi did not work either in our tent, so for our work and school we had to take it to the main house. The main house is very nice to hang out at, so that’s what we did most of the time.

Der Ort an dem sich die Zelte bzw. das Hotel befinden ist phänomenal. Das Personal ist in jeder Hinsicht außerordentlich aufmerksam, nett, hilfsbereit und versucht jeden Wunsch zu erfüllen. Das Frühstück und das Abendessen, was für uns zubereitet wurde, war jeden Tag sehr gut und liebevoll präsentiert. Das ganze Konzept war für uns durch und durch stimmig, von der Deko bis zur Musikauswahl beim Essen. Wir hatten 3 ganz wunderbare Tage und Nächte im Colina Secreta auf unserer Costa Rica Reise und diese werden schwer zu überbieten sein.

Magique !

Endroit fantastique au coeur de la forêt du Costa rica. Le premier jour nous avons été réveillé par une famille de singe qui prenait son petit déjeuner devant notre terrasse. Nous avons aussi eu la visite de magnifiques toucans. Le cadre est vraiment extraordinaire. Les chambres/tentes sont très belles et décorées avec goût. le petit déjeuner est au top, bref que des superlatifs pour cet endroit magique.

Très joli petit hôtel dans la jungle

Accueil très sympa du propriétaire. Bon petit déjeuner fait maison ! L’endroit est perdu dans la jungle et la tente ouverte dans les arbres permet de voir des animaux ! Il manque de la lumière menant à la tente cependant. Et il faut à chaque fois ressortir de la tente pour aller aux toilettes … pas pratique.
