Karole is absolutely amazing. The apartment is on a family estate, it’s beautiful and very well furnished. We felt at home, far from the tourist area, in nature. We saw a lot of toucans and other amazing birds. Thank you so much. We had a blast!

The host Carol is a very friendly, talkative person. I couldn’t find the property because of the heavy rain and my phone didn’t have reception. I called Carol from a nearby restaurant and she came over to pick me up. Her property is pretty new, very clean, the rooms are generously big.

First of all a big big thank you to Ernesto an Leslie, the owners of Vocaré, who made this wonderful and special experience so marvelous. From the first minute we felt like visiting friends, such a warm welcome for us and our two kids. Our kids loved the dogs (9), pigs, chicken and bats😉 Ernesto and Leslie made a super delicious breakfast with fruits from their garden. The Dinner was a dream, fresh smoothies with fruits from the trees next to you, vegetables from the garden and the best fish I have eaten. Ernesto and Leslie I told you, I will be back just to have dinner with you😉 The river next to Vocaré is so nice. We went swimming in the river, there is kind of a pool, also our daughter (5) could swim there on here own. All in one, one of our best experiences in our Costa Rica holidays.

The lodge itself was fine, a bit basic but it was very spacious with a nice deck. But what really makes it worth your stay is the beautiful garden!! Birds everywhere such as toucans, aracari and parrots but you can also see horses, lizards, butterflies and more. Elias is a really kind host who helped us book a wonderful night tour and we can also recommend the breakfast. Rio Celeste is just around the corner. Overall really great value for your money!!

If you are looking for a peaceful place, in nature, with excellent hosts, this is undoubtedly the right place. The rooms are very welcoming. Several breakfast options, always well prepared. The whole farm is wonderful, a fantastic pool, very well-maintained common spaces, with plenty of space to walk and lots of wildlife. It's close to several national parks. Roger and his wife are wonderful hosts! Always concerned about your stay and showing you around, with lots of tips, always available to help. In addition, they are extremely concerned about transforming the area into a better place, very concerned about the surrounding nature and wildlife. We loved talking and getting to know each other better and we have no other way of expressing how fantastic this place was - next time we return to Costa Rica we will definitely come back here!

Beautiful rainforest area, very quiet, tranquil and very remote. If you want to do hikes or tours, plan the rates for entrance-fees and guides in advance, they tried to take a bit of advantage of us charging us a lot of $$$

Upala is a wonderful part of the country, partly because it is so much less visited. The wildlife/cacao/waterfalls/volcanoes - are all wonderful. go to las hornillas, have a hot tub in a volcanic crater, get some almost good cheese. go sit in a waterfall and let nature massage you.
