My wife and I traveled to the Lodge on the recommendation of a friend. The stay was unreal and authentic. All the food was prepared by locals, the stay was a true experience of natural Costa Rica and the natural hot tub was a very classy touch. The staff was very friendly and the experience of the horse back riding... More

My cousin and I will remember our fantastic experience at beautiful La Carolina Lodge forever and hope to return. We instantly felt welcome and a part of the La Carolina family, thanks to Karien, Bill, and the warm Costa Rican staff. We ate delicious farm-raised food cooked on wood fired stoves and ovens, fresh eggs, milk, and fresh fruit. We... More

Bill and his lovely wife have an amazing farm and scenic lodge along a river in Guanacaste. The setting is peaceful and beautiful, weather is warm but not hot and the nights are perfect for outdoor lounging, watching fireflies, and listening to the running streams. Bill and the staff are more like a family then a crew, and they could... More

We loved everything at La Carolina Lodge. The accommodation is simple and you will not receive a key to your room because there are no locks on the doors. We left all our belongings in our room and never worried once that something could go missing. We believe that this is Costa Rica as it used to be all over... More

The first time I got to this secluded Lodge a few years ago as a tour-guide and was completely fascinated how the traditional costarrican simplicity that I found there gave me a feeling... More

We arrived at La Carolina lodge as the sun was setting and we were apprehensive as we approached the main lodge. We were immediately greeted and shown to our cabin, the honeymoon cabin. The honeymoon cabin was everything we hoped it would be. The cabin was large, clean and well decorated. It has it's own deck outside with a picinic... More

A very special place, we had the river cabin. Spent every evening in the hot tub, after a wonderful dinner. The horse ride was amazing, also lots of birds to see.

We visited La Carolina lodge for a wedding a few weeks ago and couldn’t have been more pleased with the experience. The lodge is tucked away in the lush rainforest, next to a rushing river, and the beautifully landscaped grounds invite you to wander and explore. The property includes a main lodge with several rooms and shared bathrooms, a large... More
