Cute little hotel tucked into the mountains. With peaceful views and a locale near many attractions, it is quite charming place. Beds are a bit firm for my tastes but I'm particular. That's the only downside.

Wonderful and quirky lodge
Wonderful and quirky lodge. Magnificent view. Nice rooms. Very helpful staff. And also a super kitchen staff who prepared several good meals and lunchboxes for us. Perfect place to stay a couple of nights, if you want to experience Rio Celeste waterfall.

A Costa Rican perfection
This hotel was perfect for many reasons. The cuisine was exceptional and artistically presented. The service was impeccable. Best of all were the gardens resplendent with a wide variety of flora, birds and butterflies.

Great Eco friendly lodge in the area
My Dad, brother and I just stayed one night and enjoyed our stay. The stay were nice, and the property with it's hedge row garden and mountain views were pretty. It's a good option to visit Rio celeste. Breakfast was plentiful and they catered a bit for our dietary needs which was very kind.

We had an amazing experience at Celeste lodge. Starting with our concierge Francisco who was so helpful, friendly and welcoming. The location and views are to die for. Their restaurant serves lunch and dinner by reservation only but their food is so fresh and delicious that we ended up dining in there the two nights we stayed. There is always a surprise meal prepared by a French chef. Btw, we have dietary allergies in our family and they accommodated us without a problem, Breakfast is complimentary and is so good too. We would go back in the blink of an eye!

The mountain lodge is perfect The location is incredibly beautiful, with a view towards the volcano and having the feeling of a being in the jungle. The atmosphere is very convivial with Joel and the staff very welcoming, and I love the fact that everyone dined together at 1900 precisely. Food is inventive with vegetarian options. A chance to meet fellow travelers and share experiences. To note, this is a LODGE not a 5 star hotel BUT the accommodation is very comfortable and functional. Bravo Joel and team. Great concept and we loved our stay.
