I was looking for quiet and peace and I found it at the Lost Iguana. After spending 4 nights at the JW Marriott ( on points) with it's luxury but corporate vibe, my husband and I were looking for something a little more authentic and nice but not luxury. I loved the Lost Iguana, loved it's remoteness, the rooms, the... More

We had a magical time at this gem of a hotel hidden away in the rainforest. It is nestled in the hillside and our room, a suite had a picture perfect view of the volcano. We woke up every morning to the wondrous sight of the smoke swirling from the cone of the volcano. Nights were spent in the jacuzzi... More

We recently spent 2 nights at Lost Iguana and enjoyed every minute. It was peaceful and tranquil and the view of the Volcano is amazing. The property is wonderful and the grounds are well kept. We are a family of 4 and had a room not far from the reception. The breakfasts are great, try the omelets. We also ate... More

This little slice of paradise is located 20min by car from the main strip in town and closer to some of the volcano attractions. We had a two bedroom suite up the hill facing the volcano in the most tranquil and luxurious setting one can imagine. This is the closest you can be immersed in nature without missing urban luxuries... More

Great balcony with rocking chairs looking out over the trees. The room was quiet except for the birds, which was a great way to wake up. The staff was helpful setting up excursions,... More

The hotel is amazing and our room was beautiful. The furniture is so beautiful and the room is... More

Like most places in CR, it takes a while to get here, but a great hotel and retreat. The staff was very friendly and spoke English very well. The hotel is built on the side of a hill/mountain so there are a lot of very steep hills to climb to get to anywhere, but they have golf carts that will... More
