Lodges in Ojochal

Very cute tent and confortable ! With great hosts !

The Rooms are totally immersed into the jungle and the peace is incredible! the breakfast was amazing, the best we had during our trip!

From the moment we arrived and walked down the beautiful garden path until the moment we left, all was wonderful. Joe and Lynn were fantastic hosts, always happy to give information and suggestions and quick to respond to any inquiries/needs. The accommodations are cozy and private. The pool was perfect, and a great place to watch the birds and lizards. Toucans in the trees above, wood rails coming for a drink and iguanas visiting around the pool, all while surrounded by beautiful flowers and plants made for an unforgettable vacation. So many great things to do within a very short distance. Thank you, can't wait to come back!

Amazing view, access to a beautiful beach, very good food

Everything. All the places we stayed on our trip were great, but this one was the best. When it comes down to hospitality it can’t get any better. Gail and Bryan are wonderful people and it was so much fun just sitting on the beautiful terrace chatting to them and watching the toucans in the trees. everthing super clean and well maintained. Kids loved the pool. We would return in an instant. Actually- when planning another CR vacation we would try to make Mango tree part of our itinerary even when our plans would be to explore other parts of the country - it’s a must!

Beautiful place in the jungle with many flowers and colorful plants. The wooden bungalows are very nice and comfortable. You wake up with voices of birds all around. Everything is very clean and well kept. The breakfast is super tasty with big choice. The owners are very kind and helpful.

Fantastic bungalow in the middle of a paradisiac garden, longlife memories, animals everywhere

We stayed in Coco Pod #3. I was a little dubious when we were told that was going to be our pod as it is the one closest to the bar/restaurant as I was concerned we would be disturbed by the noise of people chatting and laughing etc., especially later in the evenings or early in the mornings. My worries were over nothing, as you really couldn’t hear anything. The pods were extremely comfortable. They had everything you could possibly need from a hotel room and the way it is designed it stayed cool the entire time and the linens stayed smelling fresh and clean and dry. There was a fully stocked mini-bar, all the toiletries you could need plus a hair dryer. The bed was super comfortable. I was worried about being hot and bugs coming in but in June (hot season) I slept with the fan off! Plus no bugs at all in the pod. It was lovely and romantic with the mosquito net. The design of the place is stunning. They have kept it very in keeping with nature. Everything is open and simple and beautiful. You feel that you are truly immersed with nature. I got a massage plus a cranial sacral therapy session and it was on their open yoga platform area with the sounds of the birds and animals. Incredible! The food is simply to die for. I cannot believe how good the food is. You just don’t want to eat anywhere else. In the swimming pool you’ve got humming birds flying by close to you and there was even a coati in the tree next to us. Parrots were flying overhead. It was pure paradise. However what truly gives ArtVillas its soul, are the staff who work there. They are without a doubt the living, breathing heart of what make it such a wonderful place. Every single member of staff was so happy and friendly and kind that you couldn’t help but relax. It didn’t feel contrived. Not one of them asked for a review. They were just all lovely genuine good people. I would come back here again in a heartbeat. Definitely one of the top places I have ever stayed at in the world.

Tanya is an exceptional host, with the help of her gorgeous little dog Sophie. She was able to give us really good recommendations for the area and help us with all our needs. The accommodation was perfect for 4 people, the kitchen is very well equipped. Would 200% recommend - we stayed 3 nights and wished we had booked for longer !
