Trogon Lodge

Beautiful hotel and property

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I've been to Costa Rica five times, and Trogon Lodge is by far my favorite place I've stayed. The location in the beautiful San Gerardo de Dota Valley is absolutely breathtaking. Set along the river, the property is filled with stunning plants, incredible birdlife, and wildlife around every corner. There's even a beautiful trail on the property that leads to a waterfall. Our cabin was clean, cozy, and comfortable, with thoughtful touches like a space heater and hot water bottles for the bed. The property offers plenty of peaceful spots to relax, as well as a welcoming bar area where you can enjoy tea, snacks, games, or pool. The restaurant was excellent, and the staff were friendly, accommodating, and genuinely welcoming. Since the road to the lodge is steep and winding (but very manageable), having such a wonderful restaurant on-site meant we could enjoy the evening without driving after dark. The included breakfast was fresh, delicious, and filling. We also took the Bird Tour and Quetzal Tour. Our guide was incredible, helping us spot amazing birds we never would have found on our own. Seeing six Resplendent Quetzals was an unforgettable highlight. This is authentic Costa Rica at its finest. I didn't want to leave and can't wait to return.

Geat experience. Lovely hotel.

A truly beautiful place, well laid out in a mountain valley. The atmosphere is welcoming and the restaurant is excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The only minor suggestion for improvement would be to install Wi-Fi extenders to all the rooms. Our room was towards the back of the property and we lost the signal just before reaching it.
