Most beautiful place in costa rica
The service was so personal it felt like we were part of their family. We were greeted by friendly staff who immediately took our bags while we checked in. We received private tours to the volcano and waterfalls which are amazing. We got to see and feed some amazing animals. The guides are very knowledgeable and friendly. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable. The views from the room are breathtaking. The lodge is pricey but worth every bit of it. The food the atmosphere all the activities that they offer make this lodge a one of a kind. We spent two weeks and traveled from the Caribbean to the pacific and this was our most favorite place. Would definitely come back

The staff in particular was great and made the experience all the more memorable!!!! Special thanks to Byron and Brayan, our servers at the restaurants who were not only extremely knowledgeable about everything Costa Rica but also provided exceptional service, going above and beyond to accommodate every request. Definitely a 6 out of 5 stars for the property and staff. Can’t wait to come back!

Great location, excellent staff. Property and rooms are clean, but vibe is totally 1970s. Needs to be updated. Also, animal wildlife sanctuary reminded us of '70s zoo. Enclosures are too small for larger, pacing animals. They need to update entire property, especially for the poor animals.

Peace Lodge
We stayed for a night at this beautiful resort on our drive from La Fortuna to Manuel Antonio. The room includes access to the park and for a small price you can add on a night tour of the frogs and can also feed the toucans and sloths (both rescued) and wild humming birds on the property. The water fall hike and other animals on the property were great. The room was amazing with two jacuzzi tubs, one on the balcony with a great view overlooking the park and the other in suite with its own water fall. The restaurants at the resort were delicous with great service. Will definitely be back for a few nights next time we are in Costa Rica.

This was our second time at the Peace Lodge and we loved it just as much as the first time. The lodge is beautiful and the rooms are incredible. Hot tub on the balcony? Yes please! Each and every staff member went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. Special thanks to Pablo, Michael, Daniel and Jose who went above and beyond to make us happy. We could not have had a better experience. The area is breathtaking and the weather, while unpredictable, was a nice break from the heat of Florida. We brought our two kids (10 and 13) and they enjoyed the animal sanctuary many times. We visited the animals every day, hiked to the waterfalls, and even arranged to visit the Poas volcano with a private tour guide. The food was amazing and beautifully plated each time. If you can, catch a trout in the pond and they will cook it for you right there and then! Please take advantage of the animal tours, the restaurants and even the gift shop. We can't wait to come back and see our "friends."

10/10 Exceptional

This property was amazing! We were met at reception with a tropical welcome drink. The views were incredible from their deck. The staff was incredibly accommodating. Our room's bathroom was as large as the actual sleeping area. It included a huge shower PLUS a normal sized shower, a two-person jetted tub/jacuzzi, and our own personal indoor waterfall. Unlike some places in CR, you are able to flush toilet paper here. Our balcony had another two-person hot tub, a table, and a hammock in addition to our own well-visited hummingbird feeder. The views from the balcony were breathtaking. Our two children stayed with us, and the staff set up two separate roll-away beds that felt like part of the room. Our room also had a personal fireplace. The animal sanctuary on site was one of the best experiences we had for the duration of our CR vacation. That was partly thanks to the exceptional service of John, one of the staff members. He is the one who picked us up from the airport and drove us to the property (additional fee) and gave us private tours on the property. We signed up for both the nighttime frog tour (so cool! and John showed us all the frogs up close, including teaching us how to croak at one of the toads so it would respond) and the early-morning animal feeding. John guided us in feeding the toucans, the sloth, and the hummingbirds. At every step, he offered to take pictures and suggested the best ways to pose for memorable shots. Book at least two nights. 10/10

Peace lodge was very beautiful . It has so much to offer with feeding the animals they rescued to enjoying the beautiful waterfalls right on the property. The only downfall of mine was they don't have air or a ceiling fan but overall it was a great joy staying here .

The Peace Lodge is an incredible property. The rooms are like nothing you’ve ever seen - the design and thought put into the construction is beyond compare. It’s like something designed by Gaudi. We stayed two nights and enjoyed all of the animals, the waterfalls, the beautiful pools and hot tubs, and our room. The bathrooms are awe inspiring. My only small criticism is the beds, although beautiful, are on the stiffer side. May be common in Costa Rica though.
