Man kann von der Terrasse perfekt sehr viele verschiedene Vögel fotografieren. ACHTUNG: vor Antritt einer zusätzlich gebuchten Aktivität genau nachfragen, was sie kostet.

Tolle Lofge inmitten vom Regenwald. Super Möglichkeiten um Vögel zu beobachten. Tolle Wander Möglichkeiten und sehr freundliches Personal. Etwas weiter Anreise aber auf jeden Fall die Strapazen wert.

Wir waren nur 2 Nächte in der Lodge, haben den Aufenthalt und die Ruhe aber sehr genossen. Tolle große Veranda mit Hängematten und Schaukelstühlen. Wir haben alle 3 vom Hotel angebotenen Touren mitgemacht und vor allem bei der Kaimantour mit Henry viel Spaß gehabt.

Super netter Service. Familiäre Atmosphäre. Super tolle Anlage mit viel zu entdecken. Vor der Frühstücksterasse sind Vogelfutterstellen aufgebaut, so dass man dort zahlreiche Vögel beobachten kann. Jede Zimmerterrasse hat eine eigene Hängematte zum relaxen und man kann die Kanus selbst nutzen um auf den See zu fahren.

We really enjoyed our stay and wish we'd been able to spend more than 3 nights! Great birding and comfortable environment.

The birding was amazing! It was nice to be able to take the canoes out in the pond whenever we wanted. The porch on the back of the rooms with hammocks was really nice.

Das Beste an der Lodge ist die gemütliche Terrasse mit Hängematte, Schaukelstühlen und tollem Ausblick. Sie liegt abgelegen mitten im Dschungel, ist aber trotzdem mit dem Mietwagen gut zu erreichen (Schotterpiste ohne großen Schwierigkeiten). Ringsrum schöne Natur und großer Tierreichtum. Sehr empfehlenswert! Lediglich das Essen ist verbesserungswürdig. Es gab beim Abendessen am "Buffet" keine Auswahl und es wurde sogar darauf geachtet, dass man nicht zu viel nimmt.

We expected much more from this place, but of the five lodges we visited, this was the worst. Regarding the accommodation, we realized that the door could be opened with just a slight push, without even turning the handle, meaning anyone could enter the room even when the handle was locked. Furthermore, there was no water pressure for the shower, and the water had to be heated by a small heater built into the showerhead, but this gadget clearly didn't allow for temperature control; the water was either freezing cold or scalding hot. The room contained only two beds and a bedside table; there was no desk or table with a chair to set up a laptop and edit photos at the end of the day. As for activities, the only real draw of this place is birdwatching or photography, as there's nothing else to do in the area. We would have expected all the perches to be stocked with fruit and the hummingbird feeders to be full, but only one of the many perches had food, and the hummingbird feeders were all empty and were never refilled during our visit. They seemed more interested in selling us expensive paid tours: king vultures $75/person, macro with snakes and frogs $50/person, hummingbirds $65/person, small birds $30/person, bats $65/person. There are trails on the property, but they are not suitable for regular hiking boots and are extremely muddy; rubber boots are absolutely necessary. Considering the price of the overnight stays, we would have expected a little more from this place.

Sehr beschwerliche Anreise- 40 km dauern über 2 Stunden. Zimmer könnten sauberer sein, wir hatten lebende und tote Kakerlaken. Hotelmanager ist sehr nett und freundlich. Die beschwerliche Lage lohn nur insoweit, als dass Tukane, kleine Papageien und viele andere Vögel leicht fotografiert werden können, da sie angefüttert werden. Das Abendessen ist teuer und einfache Küche.

This was my second time staying at Laguna del Lagarto and I'm afraid it wasn't a positive experience this year. My last day of photography was ruined by the apparent immediate need to take down the existing feeder and put up a new one in anticipation of a photography group that was coming and yet no photography group came. This lodge caters to photography groups so if you're on your own then you may be out of luck. The birds stayed away from the area due to all the noise. The fan, toilet and shower were broken/not working properly. The people are very nice which makes writing a bad review difficult but we didn't enjoy our stay.
