We loved the tranquility of this lodge. The management and staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and welcoming. The great wildlife viewing on the property (monkeys, sloth, mot mot bird) made this one of our favourite stops on our visit to Costa Rica More

My friends and I all took the 2 hr long MT and Beach ride at 3p up on the Star Mountain Lodge this Feb and had a blast! The horses are sweet and well trained. It was only us on the trip with an experienced guide. We did not speak spanish and he did not speak english yet somehow we... More

A truly great location if you want to be near a beautiful coast and yet apart from it in a jungle clad retreat. The owners, Andrew and Lisa, we're very friendly and interesting to talk to. There is a good walk through the forest and a beautiful garden with a small, but very nice, pool. The infrastructure in general perhaps... More

The first time I went in 2005, and I revisited this year. I have stayed in many places and hotels in great locations, with great views or with luxury amenities, but Star Mountain is one of the unforgettable places in terms of getting the true jungle experience while lounging poolside. The rooms themselves are rustic, but the landscape between the... More

My husband and I stayed at Star Mountain last March. (Yes, I am really slow in posting this.) We liked the hotel. The grounds are beautiful. The rooms are rustic, but we expected that. The pool is lovely and the area is so blissfully quiet. The inn's owners were away, so I can't comment on them. However, they left staff... More

American owners Lisa and Andrew and their kind and capable crew made me and my nearly nine year-old son welcome and helped solve a couple of sticky issues that might have stymied others. We had rented a "quad," four-wheeler, handy for getting up and down the steep dirt Cabuya Road, and asked that it be delivered. Through a mistake on... More

First things first - we LOVED Star Mountain Jungle Lodge! Perfect location for us since we wanted to be all over the southern part of the peninsula - from cabo blanco to montezuma to hermosa and everywhere along the way - Star is a quiet sanctuary tucked away on the road to cabuya. Unspoiled! We had planned to split our... More

pretty rad spot for a couple or if you're travelling with a group as you could easily rent out the entire place..... breakfast was simple but convenient....the pool was a great addition...being close to marys restaurant was great.... its rustic, but defintaly worth the money in my opinion.... the location isnt the best (on the old road to cabuya soooo...kinda...

I can only explain that riding horseback to the top of the resort mountain is amazing! The scenery, foliage and wild life are unlike any other place I have visited. The view of the Pacific Ocean from the top of Star Mountain is picture perfect. I'll be back again and again. And if you enjoy seafood, only 10 minutes down... More
