Reviews for El Silencio Lodge & Spa

Definitely Worth the drive up the mountain.

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 8 hours ago

Very nice resort, great customer service with a good restaurant and bar. The hikes and zip line are well organized, I will say that $100 per person for the zip line is on the high side. The cabins are wonderful, very conformable with plenty of space, comfortable beds and plenty of hot water, the private hot tubs is a wonderful touch.

Best resort for wellness and an intimate experience

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 23 hours ago

10/10!!! We loved this place! In addition to the resort being set in the middle of the rain forest, the resort staff went above and beyond! Rudy was extremely detailed oriented and very enthusiastic about his duties. He made us feel so special and we are so grateful for all of his efforts during our stay. Nicole always greeted us with a smile and made sure we were well taken care of. Luis was also very enthusiastic about his job and made a simple stop for coffee feel like our own personal coffee tasting experience. Estevan was an amazing tour guide and very knowledgeable. Karen led us through multiple Wellness experiences and she was amazing and so personable. She played a major role in helping us feel connected spiritually. We cannot thank everyone enough for all the amazing hospitality. We were so sad to leave. Needless to say we will be visiting again. Until next time!

Beautiful Peaceful Stay

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

This is a beautiful, secluded, serene and hidden corner of Costa Rica. Even though remote we felt like we were experiencing an authentic piece of Costa Rica, completely removed from everything and in the middle of nature. The property is tucked in a stunning green valley and surrounded by rivers and waterfalls. The villa that we stayed in was gorgeous, across the river from the main buildings, with a private hot tub and with every comfort you can ask for. Our family hiked, did zip lining, horseback riding, archery, a cooking class and sound healing....all amazing and on property. The staff were wonderful, everyone of them attentive and kind and professional. My daughter and I have celiac disease and they went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of....and the food is incredible, the best we had during our Costa Rican travels. I will remember the peacefulness, the sound of the river current, the birds, cicadas and falling rain when I am stressed in the real world.

El Silencio was the highlight of our family vacation. I was traveling with my son, daughter in law, and 4 year old twins. The staff were ALL so wonderful, especially Julio who drove our cart to take us for dining and sight seeing. The landscaping was beautiful, the food beyond delicious, and the afternoon hot chocolate to die for. Liv, the girl twin, wanted Anyale, the dining room hostess, to come home with us!

A wonderful place to relax! There is good food, great massages and beautiful scenery. Every effort is given to make you comfortable and your stay memorable. We loved the activities, the accommodations and the people. It was a true delight from the beginning to the end. And extra special to be a green traveler and not leave a carbon footprint while vacationing. We can't wait to go back and leave the stress of life behind.
