The grounds are beautiful and the facility was clean and well-kept. Staff members were pleasant. We would actually consider staying there in a different room but the white cabin with the thatched roof was awkward and uncomfortable to the point that we left after one night even though we knew we wouldn't get a refund. You can tell from the photos that some of the description is inaccurate (It's just one bedroom and doesn't have a private pool though there is one pool for all guests to share.) but here's what isn't as obvious: 1. The bedroom windows are too small for decent airflow and the small portable AC they added is too noisy to use while you're sleeping. 2. The bed has clear plastic skylights over it so there isn't really time to get a good night's sleep between when the room cools down enough and the sun comes up and wakes you up. 3. The cover for the patio is made of the same clear plastic so it doesn't really provide much shade which is a big deal since your inside space is so hot. 4. You have to leave your bedroom and walk around outside to the back of the cabin to access your bathroom and they advise you to take a flashlight so you can see any fer-de-lance snakes on your way. 5. The cabin is situated on the path for staff and other guests so, while you're sitting on your patio getting a sunburn through the plastic, people might be walking right past you. We've stayed in many quirky places in Central America that we absolutely loved but this room was not okay for us.

Really enjoyed the stay here. Fritz and staff are so friendly and welcoming, the place itself is beautiful and the perfect natural escape. Will definitely come back

Awesome hiking trails on the property, good breakfast, very clean and well kept.

We loved our stay here-amazing environment, great breakfast and staff. Beautiful surroundings, close to market, waterfalls, private, secluded room. We loved this surprising gem and will definitely be back!

We felt like we were alone in the jungle, full kitchen very nice bathroom separated from the bedroom. The bedroom does not have glass windows one night was a little bit warm, so please take that into consideration but overall we loved the concept. Keep in mind there's also a huge construction boom in Costa Rica so there is some street noise, can't see it, but sometimes you can hear it

Lovely property with responsive hosts. The bungalow properties are uniquely whimsical and private. Perfect location outside of the hustle & bustle of Dominical, but a 20 minute drive away. Grocer & restaurants even closer. No A/C but decent fans available. It’s cooler in the evenings “up the hill” from Dominical.

I thoroughly enjoyed my 5 day stay at Paradise Lodge and my satisfaction began even before arriving on site due to my interaction with the staff, Anja. Not only was this my first stay in the area but it was my first time ever in Costa Rica, and I asked many clarifying questions regarding transportation, dining, and grocery options via email. Anja was very responsive and helpful, which put me at ease and started creating a pleasant customer experience immediately. Checkin was a breeze; the staff provided assistance with my luggage and ensured I was oriented with the property to me help get settled in. The cabin and grounds were clean and well kept, walk ways were well lit at night, and there was plenty of storage for clothing etc. I spent my mornings in the kitchen taking my time drinking coffee and making breakfast and enjoyed cooking dinner in the evenings as the kitchen has all necessities; full size fridge/freezer, double gas burners, cookware, plates, cups/glasses etc. Perfect for a several nights stay. Dominical is only about 15-20 minutes away and San Isidro is about 30 minutes the opposite direction. So, you can enjoy the peace and quiet of the low mountains but have great access to the beach and city if you like. Overall, a wonderful experience at the Paradise Lodge!

Nous avon louer la cabane à notre arriver le proprio était là nous a accueilli nous a aidé à apporter nos valise à la cabane retirer et privé j'avais peur d avoir chaud la nuit car il n'y a pas d'aire climatisé mais c'était ok avec les fan le site est proche des chutes noyaca un incontournable dans ce secteur là chambre était propre la piscine était bonne et rafraîchissante nous n'avons pas pris le petit déjeuner mais je suis sûr qu'il était bon en résumé endroit propre et bien entretenu expérience spécial dans la cabane on ce sent seul au monde

La habitación es linda y espaciosa.

Un endroit extraordinaire tout les commodité y été. Le matelas serait à changer car très dure avec des spring.. l’emplacement dans la jungle est formidable sauf la route qui passe très près.. les camions se font entendre énormément. Le stationnement est une bonne marche de l’emplacement.. donc il faut avoir de bonne jambes pour la descente et remonter avec nos effets. Brefs c’est un endroit très bien et nous avons reçu une très belle accueil.

the cottage/lodge was great. But on our day of arrival we already noticed that there hardly came out any water out of the tab. I took a shower in the evening - thank God - as the following morning there was none water at all. To pay 134 US $ a night for not having water is kind of a lot
