"Yes the ocean was visible. We were the only guest in hotel. Shower barely spit water in you. No paper in toilet so the septic didn’t work correctly. "

"We stayed four nights in late March, 2026. Cielo Lodge is a fairly new resort in its 5th year of existence. It's a project of love by owners Keith and Nicole Goldstein. Keith was at the lodge during our stay and shared many wonderful stories about the evolution of the ecolodge. We were greeted by staff upon arrival and immediately awed by the sunset view looking over the town of Golfito and the Golfito Dulce, with the Osa Peninsula in the background. The villas are simple yet sophisticated and modern at the same time. There is no tv, ac or even glass doors on the rooms (there are screens to let in the sounds of the jungle and keep insects out)....and none were missed for even a moment. Solar power and spring water are the "utilities". The villas are comfortable, spacious and private. The staff is all very friendly and eager to help with whatever is needed. Meals are worldclass, with exquisite attention to flavor, color, presentation and balance, using mostly if not all local ingredients. The kitchen seems to excel in knife skills, with so many dishes full of perfectly cut components. We particularly loved the Oyster Ceviche and also Zucchini Rotella with Pomodoro sauce to die for. Our servers Luigi and Moises were fabulous. Ronald was kind to drive us where we needed to be. Josue, our main tour guide and the resident naturalist, has an eagle eye and ear for the local wildlife and seems to have endless knowledge of the jungle. His English is outstanding. "

"The AC did not work. The staff just laughed when made a complaint. She laughs and avoid fixing things."

"The room was very clean and nice, although there was a big crack under the door so a lot of little critters could come in which was kinda cute with the exception of a scorpion that stung my boyfriend. Zayro was very communicative and friendly. The pool was also very clean and private which was great. My biggest gripe is the drive there is about 20 minutes of very bumpy off-roading which we were not made aware of. There is also no cell service on this road so if you get stuck with a flat tire, you may not be able to get help easily. Also, I believe they turned off our AC remotely since we left it on for a while. That was a bit irritating. other than that, we enjoyed our stay!"
