An escape into the lush jungle with all the amenities of a four star hotel. We enjoyed a walk around the grounds after a fresh, homemade breakfast. A must stay if you have a car rental.

Colina Secreta is a wonderful place to enjoy the beauty of Costa Rica while being relatively close to restaurants, beaches, and notable locations. The owners were very hospitable and made us feel valued.

Will for sure return. We appreciated the tranquility and lack of artificial noise. Breakfast was fresh and delicious, with generous portions; thank you for all the coffee too. Breakfast and pool area are shared, it was nice and comfortable. The room was clean. Beds were comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped. It even has cooking oil, salt, and some spices, utensils are basic. The trails are short distance. Staff was friendly. Cocles beach is my favorite in the area so I’ll say it’s well located, however it’s far from the beach, about 1.6 km, I wouldn’t go walking. You certainly need a car.

This was our First Glamping experience and Colina Secreta met our expectations. Great spacious cabin with amenities. The wildlife didn't disappoint. A bit of a trekk to get to the cabin if you have mobility issues but we liked being at the hill to enjoy the scenery. Staff was very helpful and responsive to any inquiries. The location is close to a ton of restaurants optins and shops.

I've traveled extensively and this was one of the most unique experiences ever. We glamped and truly felt like we were sleeping in the jungle. I'll take with me the incredible experience of waking up to howler monkeys and birds! This family-run business leaves no detail unattended.

I felt like an explorer hundred years ago -with amenities they would have dreamt of. Soak in the sounds of the rainforest, listen to the rain like never before and have a great experience in a very friendly, stylish and well appointed place.

The breakfast and staff were amazing. The people who worked there were super helpful, kind and thoughtful. The glamping was a once in a lifetime experience with all the night time sounds and showering outside in the jungle at night. The fireflies were magical and there were tucans just hanging out in the trees outside our place. We did not have a lot of insects inside but they do get in through small holes in the glamping tent and the screen door had holes and was broken when we arrived. They did eventually come to "fix it" which meant spraying something on the tracks so we could close the door. The outside area had a small private pool in our Hemmingway tent which we used once and it was clean but unheated and felt fresh after being hot from the day. Two people died in the ocean while we were visiting in July and the waves at the beaches nearby were huge and scary. I do not reccomend going in the ocean and we are lifelong ocean swimmers. I thought they could have done more to mitigate the insect problem while guests were eating. It was hard ot enjoy because we spent the whole time swatting insects off our food. Maybe screen in the breakfast area so people can relax while eating. The coffee was amazing and fresh fruit has no comparison.

Everything about this place is next level. Comfortable bed/pillows. All I could hear at night was the wildlife lulling me to sleep. No noise of cars or people. Not to mention the privacy. No other guest are in close proximity to your accommodation. Breakfast is a unique experience. The table setting took me back to being a child when etiquette was practiced. The service, cleanliness were impeccable and I won’t spoil the surprise with the food. I give Colina secreta a 12 out of 10 for me!

I am so happy to spend one night at this beautiful hotel! The hostess are so friendly like long time no see relatives. Beautiful breakfast was a big surprise for me. I had a hard time to choose which coffee I would take. Definitely will recommend and I will come back again. You will have a good chance to see a sloth up close inside this 3 hectares property.

8/10 Very good

On arrival it felt just like in Tarzan, romantic and the reception service was very good, Miguel did everything to explain and make us feel welcome. They arranged the suitcases too. Once in our tent, the beds were very nicely made and the style is nice too, though the moisture was very high. This means there is a lot of mildew and wet tents and wood. This type of stay is an experience we wanted, though we found that the maintenance definitely needs to be upped! Kitchen is bare, leaking pipe, wood surfaces worn, toilet seat needs replacing etc. Generally we won’t do it again especially with kids, as with the storm we had the second night, we had a short sleep. First noght too of course to get used to the sounds and no light, but that we expected;-). Breakfast was ultimately good though, and again great service. The wifi did not work either in our tent, so for our work and school we had to take it to the main house. The main house is very nice to hang out at, so that’s what we did most of the time.

Simpelthen en lille perle. Som at træde ind i en lille tidslomme og bor i Hemingways eget telt i junglen. Det venligste og hjælpsomme personale. Stor og solid morgenmad. Lækker, friskbrygget kaffe. Kæmpe anbefaling! (Viejo-by er meget turistet. Det var ikke lige min smag. Men så kan man tage lidt uden for byen og finde en fin restaurant).
