Very close to the airport, Poas Volcano Park, and the La Paz waterfall. There is a very nice French Restaurant around the corner, another great place to have a dinner in addition to the lodge. The views are beautiful. Hiking the cloud forest trails is a fun thing to do while you are there. You may want to stay there... More

Poas Volcano Lodge was our third destination, and the nicest hotel, during our first visit to Costa Rica in January. What a beautiful place. The hotel is a contemporary fieldstone and timber-frame structure situated in serenely beautiful rolling hills above 6,000 feet. It is on the grounds of a dairy farm and is surrounded by views of the lush natural... More

Took me just 47 minutes from the Juan Santamaria Intl airport to reach the Lodge, even if it is a short time I was in a totally different world., a green one! The area is surrounded by beautiful green areas, some are pure forest some are dedicated to farming, mainly cows and strawberries fields. The room I stayed (Master) was... More

I booked this hotel on a suggestion from a colleague who used to live in Costa Rica. We landed in San Jose at 8pm, picked up our rental car (with GPS) and drove to Poas. We were settled in by 10pm. This location worked well for us because we traveled farther north to Guanacaste the next morning. The staff and... More

The Poas Volcano Lodge is not a loud or adventurous place for a party. It's a quiet, tranquil cool mountaintop lodge for walking gentle trails. You can certainly do a number of tours in the area but the lodge is the perfect place to end a vacation by sipping wine by a fireplace. The food was excellent - and I'm... More

Beautiful lodge, lovely rooms (we had junior suites) with coffee/thee in the room. Great bathroom. Great dinner and good breakfast. Very close to Poas Volcano and Waterfall Gardens. Waterfall gardens is ok to visit, a littelbit "touristic", but there we saw a least some tucans !

A little out of the way on a farm, Poas Volcano Lodge is an amazing retreat. It's been completely rebuilt since the 2009 earthquake by an incredible architect with a sense of all natural. It is hard to explain the fabulous use of wood, form, comfort. While simple, it is completely comfortable with all modern conveniences. Yes, the non-suites are... More

We spent a beautiful weekend here with our 18 year old son. He enjoyed the volcano-we were are to see it and the local zipline/canopy tour. It is a very homey place with a pool table and lots of games. We had dinner there both nights. One dinner was great and the other was not to our taste. Plenty to... More

This hotel is near the national park, (approx. 15 km) and withinin a stunning location with views right on the volcano. The hotel has a very nice and comfty bibliotheque, a new TV room and a nice big room with a pool table and a fireplace. The food (dinner and breakfast) were great. All in, absolutely worth a stop.
