Amazing Jungle Escape!
What an adventure, Naguala is one of the best kept secrets on the Osa. This is a rainforest paradise, with waterfalls, trails, gardens and all the wildlife. It was a perfect place to catch our breath. The food was so delicious, we saw tapir tracks at the river, 3 different monkeys, the howlers are so loud and the toucans and small red billed ones are cool too. Thanks to the Naguala family and Evelio for taking care of us. Next time we will stay longer! Pura Vida.

This was one of the best experience I had staying in Costa Rica . Brian was so helpful with all our needs. The property was super clean. The food was delicious. Can’t wait to go back! My husband and I found the waterfalls to be so romantic.

Enttäuschung trotz schöner Lodge
Die Lage der Lodge ist wunderbar, ein kleines Stück Paradies im Dschungel, wunderbar gepflegt, das Essen sehr gut. Wir hatten das Cabin "Trogon" gebucht. Dennoch war der Aufenthalt enttäuschend: das Personal war zwar freundlich, sprach aber nur sehr schlecht Englisch und war nicht bemüht uns selbst wichtige Informationen zu geben: z.B war das das Essen (wie wir bei der Abreise feststellten) nicht im Preis inkludiert, dennoch wurde es einfach - ohne uns zu fragen oder den Preis dafür zu nennen - 3x am Tag serviert (laut der Website der Lodge ist der Preis inklusive Vollpension und bei Buchung über Hotels.com war es exakt derselbe Preis). Dass nur ein Trail ausgeschildert war, war auch schade. So konnten wir die Lodge auch nicht so nutzen, wie wir uns das vorgestellt hatten. Es war uns ja auch nicht klar, ob der (wenig Englisch sprechende Guide) bzw. wieviel er für seine Dienste verlangt. Das wäre letztendlich inbegriffen gewesen. Also irgendwie schade, war ja doch sehr teuer. Wenn man Spanisch kann, kann man sicher mehr aus dem Aufenthalt rausholen. Beim Buchen jedenfalls darauf achten, ob man diesen Preis auch ohne Verpflegung zahlen möchte.
