Beautiful secluded property. Drive in requires patience with the road conditions, but isn’t bad. Restaurant on site is convenient because you don’t want to spend time driving in and out. Hiking on property was nice and the staff were very friendly!

Un petit paradis
Nous avons adoré le Rinconcito Lodge. Les déjeuners étaient fabuleux et le cocktail d’arrivée très apprécié. La route pour s’y rendre est cahoteuse mais vaut quand même le déplacement. La petite randonnée derrière le complexe, le partie près de la piscine et l’accueil des gens font en sorte que nous avons passé un merveilleux moment.

Great value for this beautiful property. All the staffs are very friendly and helpful for hiking information. Only thing is that there is a blackout in late night for a few hours. Didn’t bother me much though.

Excellent property and good, staff were very good. I only rated “did not receive amenity” because it wasn’t clear (by the Lodge or Expedia) whether there was an amenity or what it was.

Staff was very friendly and generous. The room and the common areas were clean. The pool is very nice. Our trip in costa rica was mostly activities and hikings. We decided to stay at Rinconcito lodge for a relaxing day by the pool, reading, taking casual naps and drinking. And we weren’t disappointed. We would definitely visit again.

Found this place when looking for a hotel between La fortuna and Tamarindo . Then found the hot springs near by as well because of this . The hotel was easy to check into and they even let us check in sooner so we could enjoy hot springs and not worry about our belongings. We got the breakfast which was great.The rooms were clean and comfortable and staff was very friendly . We did have dinner here as well as its good only choice in the area besides the resort at the hot springs . Food was great plenty of choices however the drinks were pretty weak and watered down. Beware the roads in and out of this area have not been maintained and lots holes so give yourself time and take it easy . Was nice to have suv for this reason just to have the clearance . I would still however recommend this property.

We had an amazing time at this tranquil lodge. The entire staff went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and enjoyment. Walter guided us on horseback through a scenic trail on the property and shared his passion for the surrounding flora and fauna. It was truly an unforgettable experience.

This seems like a cool place. But…there is very limited options for food. I had to eat the same thing every day because they were out of everything. Also the tours weren’t really available..or if they were I had to go with a guide who doesn’t speak English. It wasn’t the cleanest either- spiders in the room, ants in the bed and smelled musty and dank. Pretty place tho. I’m sure it’s better during the busy season.

Our stay at Ronconcito
We stayed in 5 different all around Guanacaste and this was without a doubt our favorite place. David, the host was amazing. He provided us with detailed information about Rincon National Park. The dining staff were also excellent. Grounds were beautifully maintained and the horticulturalist on-site told us all about the plantings. They even have cotton trees!
