The property is set in amazing rainforest gardens, the hosts are charming and welcoming and so enthusiastic about the wildlife in the area, so happy to show visitors the frogs and lizards, sloths and birds. I absolutely loved it. It felt so safe, clean and friendly i would definitely recommend La Kukula Lodge

What a pleasant stay our family enjoyed at La Kukula Lodge! The accommodations exceeded our expections for the price. Proximity to the beach while being surrounded by jungle was fantastic! Cooked-to-order breakfast each morning ensured we started our day off right. We will definitely be back- thank you!!

The room was very clean and comfortable. However, it would have been nice to have a refrigerator and also an air conditioner since it can get very warm and the ceiling fan alone does not cool the room down. The staff and owners are super friendly and very attentive. We left very early in the morning and the lady working in the kitchen (I believe her name was Gira) offered to prepare us some sandwiches, which super nice of her. One negative was that things do not dry since its super humid outside as well as in the room. However, if you enjoy nature this is definitely the place to stay!

Great place to feel immersed in the jungle, with trees and animals all around. We saw a sloth, monkeys and agouti, they have a tiny frog sanctuary, and it's close to the beach (10 min). Room has a mosquito net and helps to feel immersed in the jungle (no windows) Food and drinks are available and the breakfast was decent.

La Kukula Lodge is an amazing Costa Rican jungle experience. The accommodations are unbelievable matched only by the surroundings. You really are in the middle of a jungle. From seeing agoutis for the first time to waking up to the sound of howler monkeys, you never knew what you were going to get. The owners make you feel very welcome and at home. The staff are all very friendly and English is widely spoken. They serve a complimentary breakfast which was delicious! A truly amazing stay in Costa Rica!

We loved the rooms. We were inside but we could feel everything outside. The room is screened very well, yet we were able to hear the pouring rain and the Howler monkeys. It is really jungle living. The property is very clean and well-maintained. Clean towels and sheets regularly. The kitchen staff is friendly and accommodating. Sonia is fantastic and helpful! A very comfortable stay in the jungle. A beautiful beach is a short walk down a jungle path...quiet beach, secluded.
