La Ceiba Tree Lodge

Tilarán

J

From
Costa Rica
First, to speak plain: the land is Eden itself. Gardens spill their green abundance, the view flows wide as a hymn, and the hush of nature wraps the traveller as a cloak. The host, Sergio, is a man of rare courtesy and deep knowing; his tales of Costa Rica carried us far beyond our chairs, so that we travelled the breadth of the country without once leaving his porch. Each dawn brought breakfast: eggs fresh and forthright, toast crisp, cheese modest yet true, coffee and tea brewed with sincerity. Our chamber, though compact, held all we needed; the shower head rained down with a vigour that quickened the spirit, and though the hot water sang its song for only two minutes, it was a vivid two minutes, sharp and bracing, like a baptism of the tropics. The architecture itself delights in its simplicity, a row of cabins bound together as though carriages upon a railway, joined by a balcony that becomes, in essence, a grand salon. We had this gallery entirely to ourselves—four neighbouring rooms stood empty, so the balcony belonged wholly to us, our private stage set against the mountain air. A sentinel camera watches over this shared space, lending a sense of safety to those who wander it by moonlight. The room within, small but sufficient, asks one to live lightly, to dwell not in clutter but in the essentials: a hanger of four arms sufficed for our coats; the mattress bore us well, firm with its springs, while our own pillows, brought from home, made the bed familiar. The bathroom, too, spoke of intention: a modest bin reminded us to waste little, to tread with care. The presence of life is everywhere. Ants marshal and patrol, reminding us that the house stands in communion with the forest. Mosquitoes are thwarted by nets thoughtfully placed, so slumber remains unbroken. Even the house cat, peculiar of visage with a head grander than its body, insists upon friendship, pressing close, purring, licking with unabashed honesty—a beast as singular as the place itself.

What a special place! I wish we could have stayed longer. The views on the balcony are incredible. And the host took us on a trail on his property and we learned a lot about the local wildlife and plants. The place is set up with everything you need- great outdoor seating, a BBQ, games, coffee and comfortable beds. If you are in the area, I would 100% recommend this gem!

Restaurant, pool, the view of the lake, the gym, and the little hot spa room... trails going all around it really was a standout place, much more like a peaceful resort, but a brewery is attached!! Get a tour of the place... very eco-friendly yet has every amenity, plus did I mention beer?!

This is the perfect cabin right in the middle of nature and tranquility! The cabin had all the amenities one could need and perfect for cooking a great meal and enjoying right on the front deck in nature. Walking distance to some nice off road paths that lead you to beautiful views of Tiliran. The host Jessica only made the stay more amazing and was so helpful and knowledgeable with all things to do around. She even gave us a ride and some bananas for breakfast from the trees right outside the cabin window 😁
