We had a really nice, five-day stay at Cataratas Bijagua Lodge. The accommodations were just what we needed for our family of four, and the grounds of the lodge were absolutely beautiful. The staff was very welcoming, and the highlight of our days was the amazing traditional breakfast served on the large deck each morning. We ate the most delicious fruit while watching the local hummingbirds feed. Las Cataratas was a great home base for exploring the area, and we were able to take a day trip to Las Playas del Coco as well. ||This is the lodge for you if nature and the outdoors are your priority. The small town of Bijagua has everything you might need - supermarkets, pharmacy, restaurants (sodas), and fruit stands. The lodge owners are also very helpful in booking activities/excursions. Overall we had a great experience and can't wait to go back!

One the of the best, if not the best, places I have stayed. Rooms are clean and nice. The public spaces are beautiful as well with plenty of areas to hangout outside of the rooms. The waterfall hike is amazing, probably the best hike in the area, my girlfriend and I did it and did not see another person the whole time. The shorter hike to the overlook is nice as well. The meals are great and dinner is very reasonable priced (be sure to let them know by 5pm whether you want dinner or not) There is a restaurant and 24 hour ATM 5 minutes away, a town 15 minutes with a chain grocery store, and then the Tenerio touristy areas past that so everything you need in the area at the right distances. Another cool note is all the power for the lodge is generated from a water generator behind the pool!

Loved it here. Had the whole place to myself. Cute cabins, well kept grounds. Nice eating area and a super friendly staff that was very patient with the language barrier. The pool was fantastic for cooling off. The walk up the trail to the waterfall with a swim was surreal. Will return. Check this place out!

My wife, daughters and I had a wonderful stay at Cataratas Bijagua Lodge in March 2024! The breakfasts were excellent and made fresh. Genuine Costa Rican fare. The location was perfect as it is only 5 minutes from Bijagua and there are trails that lead from the cabins deeper into the jungle (a beautiful viewpoint that overlooks the valley, a waterfall, etc). We saw monkeys, coati, and too many birds to count. The hammock and swinging chairs on the cabin porch were perfect for evening relaxation. The accommodations are perfect for those who are looking for basic necessities rather than the overrated creature comforts that bigger resorts offer. Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful stay at Cataraas Bijagua Lodge! Werner the owner/host was extremely accommodating and helpful in booking tours and advising us on what to do, and when to do it! The cabins are spacious, CLEAN, and modern, yet rustic, and right in the rain forest, steps to a trail right off the property that leads to a beautiful waterfall. There are several restaurants in the town of Bijagua (about a 5-6 minute drive from the Lodge), but we chose to eat all our dinners in the open air covered patio at the Lodge. Our main server, Natalie, was amazing and very friendly, and the food was delicious, especially the "Garlic Fish"! All the staff were great! If you're looking for a low-key, quiet retreat in the rain forest, this is it!! |We'll be back!|David & Joanie

Wonderful cabin in the forest. Great sized room, nice bathroom, breakfast was excellent with fresh fruit, juice, delicious coffee and the usual Gallo Pinto. Staff were really helpful and the 5 kilometre walk you can do from the property to a waterfall is one of the most beautiful walks I've ever done. The trees had Toucans, Hummingbirds and Woodpeckers in them.

What a delightful stay! We drove here from Guanacaste after staying in a 5 star resort. Honestly loved this place more. Clean, comfy, quiet and very peaceful. The host and hostess are kind and courteous. Loved the grounds. Very well kept and diverse in vegetation. The waterfall was AMAZING! Wear hiking boots, take water and swim suit. It was the most non commercial thing we did in CR and totally enjoyed it. BTW the breakfast was delicious!
