Amazing stay at Ecotica. The room with two queen beds was quite spacious and it was spotless everyday. We also were up in the trees where we were graced with squirrel monkey’s swinging in the trees next to our room every day. We saw a sloth up close and white face monkeys every day along with many other animals. It truly was a treat! The grounds were lush and beautiful and the staff were magical! Definately staying her again!

We were a day late checking into the hotel, but everyone made us feel so welcomed and was very kind. The breakfast that was made to order was so delicious. The housekeeper did a wonderful job cleaning our bungalow and made our anniversary feel special. It felt like a dream. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to stay in Costa Rica and loves wildlife as much as I do. Thank you so much again! Pura Vida!
