    The breakfast options here are amazing - so many yummy choices to pick from. Our room was big, super nice, and had a comfy hammock for ultimate relaxation. 🌴 Plus, the location is just a short hop away from the town and the beach. the tropical garden is stunning, filled with lots of animals to see.

    Surrounded by lush greenery, Star Mountain provides a tranquil retreat right in the heart of the jungle. Guests can easily access the beautiful beaches in the area, with some just a short distance away. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and the service provided by the staff is warm and attentive. The breakfast served is simple but delicious, offering fresh fruit, granola, and yogurt. The lodge also offers various facilities such as a swimming pool and horse riding tours, ensuring a memorable stay.

    Limited dining options on-site.

    I had the most incredible experience at Star Mountain Jungle Lodge in Santa Teresa. The moment I arrived, I was greeted by a magical garden with beautiful paths, butterflies, and exotic birds. The room was simple yet neat and clean, providing a safe and secure environment. My little one had a blast running around the property, collecting flowers and bugs, and swimming in the pool. The quiet and peaceful atmosphere of the place made me decide to extend our stay. The location is just perfect, nestled on a hill in Malpais, right on the edge of the Cabo Blanco nature preserve. We took the private "Jungle Trail" and were amazed by the howler monkeys in the distance and the breathtaking coastal views. The pool at Star Mountain was a true oasis, especially since we had it all to ourselves. We ventured into town and had a delicious meal at Mary's restaurant, which was a highlight of our trip. The room was spacious and clean, although the bed could have been more comfortable. The breakfast in the morning was simple yet satisfying, with fresh-cut fruit and yogurt. The staff at Star Mountain were incredibly friendly and made us feel at home, creating a relaxed family-style vibe. I can't recommend Star Mountain Jungle Lodge in Santa Teresa enough. It truly is a special place that I hope to visit again someday.

    This hotel truly captures the essence of a jungle retreat. Surrounded by lush greenery, it provides a secluded and peaceful setting that feels like a real escape from the outside world. Just as one reviewer mentioned, the hotel's location offers the best of both worlds - a hidden paradise in the jungle, yet conveniently close to the vibrant beaches and lively restaurants of the area. The attention to detail in the rooms is impressive, with beautiful interiors that create a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Additionally, the friendly and helpful staff go above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. As another reviewer mentioned, the innkeeper arranged a fishing trip for them, and even allowed them to use the hotel's facilities for a feast - a testament to the exceptional service provided. The self-serve breakfast is also a nice touch, providing convenience and variety to start the day off right.

    During our 7-night stay at this hotel, we were blown away by the warm hospitality and incredible attention to detail. The staff, including Pia and her team, were extremely kind and helpful, ensuring that all our needs were met. One highlight was the delicious breakfasts, which consisted of fresh fruit, granola, yogurt, and good coffee. The hotel's location in the jungle provided a one-of-a-kind experience, with stunning scenery to explore both within the reserve and along the nearby coastline. Another great aspect was the range of dining options recommended by the hotel, each offering exceptional service and a variety of tastes and budgets. We particularly enjoyed the fresh seafood and friendly atmosphere at Marys, Caricolas, and Ritmo Tropical.

    All in all, everything was exceptional.
