Our week in Rivel was such a treat. First, the place is beautiful. There are various hikes to do (some fairly challenging), bikes to go to the nearby villages, a splendid river cascading through the property with a natural pool. The cabin is small but comfy and well-made. Care is taken to position the cabins far enough from one another, for one to really feel they have their own little nook in the mountains. Yet just a few minutes walk takes you to their restaurant, which is delicious and very reasonably priced, for Costa Rica. Waking to a fresh, full breakfast and steaming hot coffee that was grown just up the hill, while looking over the valley and river, became a cherished pleasure during our week-long stay. What really stuck out to us though was the helpfulness and willingness to find creative solutions, by the entire staff and in particular Crystal. Numerous times we asked for help or guidance for something outside the hotel's services, and every time Crystal and her colleagues went out of their way to find the solution for us, often going further than what we had asked. From getting us to the hotel from the coast with our dog, to doing laundry, to adapting the menu - they made it their mission to accommodate our every need, without batting an eyelash. This is so rare, and so incredibly important! It sets Rivel well apart from other places I've stayed in throughout Latin America and the world.

An excellent place to stay in the area, especially if you are there for the birding. Much more affordable than similar birding lodges in the area, and very close to Tayutic Mountain Reserve (which I strongly recommend visiting as well). You can stay here and visit Tayutic Mountain Reserve during the day for a price point that comes in at about a quarter what you'd spend to stay at the most well-known birding lodge in the area. The included breakfast was very good.

This place is absolutely incredible, with a fantastic location offering stunning 360-degree views of the surrounding landscape, including the Turriba Volcano. Mark and Annabelle were outstanding hosts—warm, friendly, and incredibly welcoming. They made us feel at home right away. The food was delicious, and we enjoyed spending time sharing stories with Mark, Annabelle, and the other guests. Everything about our stay was perfect, and we can’t wait to return!

The bungalows were comfortable, private and with great views of Turrialba volcano. They are set in a sizeable plot and there are paths within it to explore the forest. The hosts were very welcoming and friendly. Breakfasts were delightful with a great selection of fresh fruit, nuts, granola, toast and eggs served in a beautiful dining cabin.

The views from the hotel / garden on the neigbouring mountains are stunning. The rooms were in line with expectations and Wifi was good. The pool was very clean and accessible. The hosts were extremely friendly. We had some special requests for which they were very understanding and helpful. On top of that, the food is amazing. The breakfast was the best we've had so far in a hotel in Costa Rica. The hosts were also very open to provide additional additional information on Costa Rica in general (points of interest, climate and seasons, local food, recipes, fruits and vegetables, ...) which was very interesting to us.

We stayed in the tent and it was a fantastic experience, very comfortable and equipped with all you need (strong lights, a powerbank, wifi, safety deposit box, coffee maker with their own coffee,...). The property is easy to reach and was a perfect stop on our way from the carribbean coast to Quetzales Nationalpark. The tent is very quiet and you have an amazing view from there. Alfonso, the owner is very friendly and gave us many information how to best enjoy his hugh Finca. There are a lot of things to do and see and it would make sense to stay for a couple of nights. We spotted many nice birds from the tent and by walking around and also went to their pont at night which was a unique experience. Also the giant swing was really fun!
