Reviews for El Silencio Lodge & Spa
A must visit place on an itinerary Costa Rica.
Driving into the resort was an experience in itself. We were given a welcome drink on arrival. Our room was not ready but gave us opportunity to look around. Everywhere was so clean. Our villa was amazing. Double bedroom with jacuzzi overlooking the stream. We did the complementary hike around the property with a very knowledgeable guide. I did find the vegetarian/vegan dinner options a little limited, but that said I did find something that I could eat. Breakfast which was included in our package was lovely. It was just a shame that we was only there for two nights

Unnecessarily shady billing
The lodge and grounds are lovely. Unfortunately the billing practices are extremely shady. At the end of our stay they refused to give us an itemized receipt for charges & lied about refunding certain things. I'm still trying to get them to itemize a $1400 bill, which was two days of food and transport. We had no spa or extra tours. If you choose to stay here, I would recommend being very cautious about what you order, keep a journal and let them know in advance you will expect the bill to be clear and itemized on checkout.

Bird watching.
Good bird spotting. Jose was an excellent guide. He spent nearly two hours with us. His enthusiasm was infectious. We saw hawks, a toucan and many others.He had a good sense of humor and was fun! I highly recommend this tour in a stunning setting.

cool and beautiful in the cloud forest. great value and service. don’t miss hike to the waterfalls
what a lovely place! fancy but the service was wonderful (thanks to Mike Alejandro and all the dining staff) and everyone there was so sweet. our room had a nice hot tub which heated up in 30 minutes which we loved. we sat outside for every meal and loved the roar of the river. it rained all day on our drive there so the water level was high. planned to do fly fishing but water level too high on the rocks so we hiked to the waterfalls instead. great well marked hike. had a good tour and archery (a blast) with Jose Miguel who did a great job. enjoyed the food and loved the hot chocolate and cookies. our cart driver Julio was a real kick and gave us a tour around. loved the place!!

Swam in the falls, brrrr
The resort is amazing and staff wonderful. Make sure you take the hike on site to the 3 waterfalls - suggest guided as better experience. We went in rainy season and was fine, waterproof footwear is a good idea. We swam in the very cold falls at the top. Love the place and fresh food! We had lodge 16, the best and private yet still close to everything.

A wonderful place to relax! There is good food, great massages and beautiful scenery. Every effort is given to make you comfortable and your stay memorable. We loved the activities, the accommodations and the people. It was a true delight from the beginning to the end. And extra special to be a green traveler and not leave a carbon footprint while vacationing. We can't wait to go back and leave the stress of life behind.
