Cañon de la Vieja Lodge

Exactly what you would expect from a hotel in the Costa Rican rainforest. The pool, pool bar, and restaurant were all well maintained. The staff was super friendly and welcoming. We were here on a student tour so it was very crowded with students. The buffet dinners were surprisingly very tasty and breakfast had a nice view of the river. The AC units worked very well and bathroom/shower was decent for this type of hotel stay. Don't expect luxury, but it was a nice place to stay for a few days on tour.

It is in a stunning jungle forest with hot springs, spa, pool and bar, restaurants, tubing, zip lining and horseback riding, with breakfast included. The staff ensured the safety of everyone and we had a fantastic time! This lodge is perfectly located close to the Liberia airport. I look forward to returning!

We only took advantage of the white-water rafting, and had a great time! We went in 2-person inflatable kayaks (the guide and guest). We went during low water season, but it was still loads of fun. Our guides were very nice and accommodating. The tour normally lasts 1.5 hours and very scenic. We stopped at a swimming hole with a rope swing which was refreshing. If you don’t want to raft, there is also a tubing option that covers much of the same route. There is horseback riding and zip lining that goes through the canyon over the river. Afterwards we had a good buffet-style lunch with healthy options. There are accommodations, but I can’t comment on those.

The cabins are cute and clean. I don't really care about the furnishings as long as they are comfortable. They were. Cleanliness is the most important thing to me and these cabins were clean!! | |I enjoyed sitting on my little porch listening to the birds. It is a very peaceful setting. I did go horseback riding. That ride was about 1.5 hours. It was a gorgeous ride. I also took advantage of the pool which was well maintained. ||The manager and staff were extremely helpful as I was in need of medical attention. The maids helped me calm down and contacted the front office for assistance. This was inspite of a languge barrier. They took care of me until I was transported to a local hospital. I cannot say enough about the staff. I am impressed and if I ever have the opportunity to go back to this lodge I will. ||Thank you for doing something so well!

We had a fun day here. They have river tubing, horseback riding, zip lining, mud bath and hot springs all on the same property which was very convenient. This is a great place to go and get a lot of things accomplished in one day

Mixed. This could have been a much better experience than it was. Travelling as part of a Ramblers group of 20 we were allocated a single room rather than a double , as bookings only recognised one name. The first dinner was terrible , with three large groups each of 20 people squashed into one air conditioned room … too cramped and too noisy. Why didnt the hotel use their beautiful other restaurant area adjacent to the canyon in the evenings ? |Conversely, the pool was good and the lunchtime snack menu excellent .

Food was good. Activities were really fine. We didn't stay there. Would recommend

First ⭐ they offer what could be a full day of fun. Second ⭐ the staff were pleasant and seemed interested if we're having a good time, Third ⭐ the food, although start buffet style was tasty, the meat was a bit over cooked but tasty. Took away two ⭐⭐ because they refuse after we paid to give us what we paid for. Eventful, I wouldn't go back there are other places to see and stay.
