Amazing stay at Ecotica. The room with two queen beds was quite spacious and it was spotless everyday. We also were up in the trees where we were graced with squirrel monkey’s swinging in the trees next to our room every day. We saw a sloth up close and white face monkeys every day along with many other animals. It truly was a treat! The grounds were lush and beautiful and the staff were magical! Definately staying her again!

The pool and lounge area was so perfect!! Especially after going on adventures all day. It was a great place to relax. It was intimate and we got to know multiple guests. Beautiful property!! Moneys, toucans, mini capybara looking things would come out and get pretty close! It was amazing. Our villa was great and felt private even though the pool was a quick walk away. Breakfast was great! 10/10 would recommend this place. We even had my six year old and she loved it too. Lots of couples and some families. Great place to relax but super close to everything. We really loved our server, Moses!! He was the absolute best!
