We loved our stay at Mikado Lodge! It is an incredible property in the middle of the jungle. The room and deck were lovely as you feel like you are in the tree canopy with the sounds of howler monkeys, cicadas, and views of deer and so many species of birds. Bring your binoculars! We enjoyed the pool time, the little trail on site, and the troup of monkeys that came swinging through the trees through in the morning. Aside from the beauty of the nature, everything is just so polished and well-taken care of. It is clear that a lot of thought and time has gone into the design and care of this boutique hotel. The owner, Lolo, was a gracious and accommodating host. She whipped up some delicious meals and was so sweet with our one year old. Playa Avellana is close by so you can go from jungle to beach in about 15 minutes! We would definitely stay there again.

This place is definitely to rest and recharge. The A.C. in the room was awesome and the beds out of this world; king size and super comfy. The pool is also refreshing and Daniela the girl that tour us the place is very sweet. However, if you are looking for luxury and resort like activities, this is not the place for you, but for people that are looking for a place to be in peace and comfortable this is it.

While the rest of the hotels/resorts are basically cheaply made wooden shacks with tin roofs, this one is real brick/mortar built to the highest standard. Everything is new, very well made and exceptionally clean. There’s a communal open kitchen with all amenities which is very handy if you don’t wanna go out for every meal. The beach is a short 5min walk and there are many good restaurants all around. The Esquina de Avellanas, an open dining area with multiple excellent open kitchens are just across the street. The lovely young European couple who run this place are the coolest people I’ve met in my trip.

The property is so central to the main area. There is a fabulous pool area with an ice machine and great amenities. The room is a perfect size and very comfy beds. The staff were so lovely. My phones and purse were stolen and they did their absolute best to help me and even offered to stay another night free of charge to help in the situation I found myself in. Thanks so much again to all at Ten North 🌸🙌

This was our second time here and for sure not the last time. This place is unique. The Swiss owners make sure it's clean, well organized, well maintained and safe. We had a twin bed bungalow. They are well designed with opposite windows (with mosquito net), no need to switch on the aircondition. The food at the Restaurant is the best at Junquillal beach. Daily wake up call by the howler monkeys. Overall a very calm place. 2 minutes walk to the breathtaking beach. This place is close to paradise with reasonable prizing. Highly recommended.

    Soulshine is a gem. The rooms are comfortable with funky decor. The grounds are beautiful, especially the pool area where you can watch many iguanas sunning themselves on the deck. We enjoyed having a shared kitchen and the wifi was the best we've had in CR - very fast and dependable. The beach is a 10-15min walk.
