Stayed Dec 31, 1969We stayed from January 7th to January 14th 2023. The tree house is beautiful! The setting is ideal, you are surrounded by jungle and you can hear the waves at night. The animals came to us! On the first day, we saw sloth (in the treehouse tree), lesser capiberra, toucan, silver monkey, howler monkey, large iguana, and BATS (they live in the treehouse with you). Topo informed me the the drive from San Jose was too long for the time we arrived (10pm) and advised us to stay the night in San jose. I attempted to make the reservation change several weeks prior and he rejected to change stating it was too late (Vbro policy states otherwise). When we arrive, Topo was clearly annoyed that we did not arrive on Saturday..... Topo gave us a tour of the beautiful treehouse and in that tour it was discovered that several lights did not work, and there was an electrical short in the bathroom light. Topo also pointed out that he needs to install anti slip tape on the stairs because they are slippery when dry and get wet when it rains ( yes my wfe and I both slipped but no injury) Topo stated that he needed to fix them but never did. After he left, we noticed that there were mice droppings in many locations. The main areas of the treehouse are open to the jungle. You need to realize this prior to staying incase you are not comfortable with bats, lizards, mice, cockroaches, etc. I fell thru the floor due to poor construction and maintenance.

Stayed Sep 7, 2019WOW! This place is gorgeous! I highly recommend. You do have to be ok with nature coming into your place as it is open air. We had fruit bats that camped in the tree that chirped at us in the morning! They were absolutely adorable!

Stayed Oct 6, 2025The house was incredible! So beautifully constructed. Unlike anywhere we’ve ever stayed.Was comfortably furnished and inviting. Kitchen is available for cooking and our host provided a few drinks.The yard was fantastic with all sorts of animals and birds. The entire place is open to the elements except bedrooms, which have an ac unit in each and the bathrooms are also closed.Cannot say enough about how unique an experience this was. Highly recommend.Host was wonderful and very helpful. Met us at a nearby restaurant/bar and personally escorted us to property and gave a lovely tour and explanation. Property is also located within about 20 mins of other towns and activities. Great location!

Stayed Feb 15, 2025This location is perfect. Where else can you go from rainforest to beach in walking distance? The black sand is so soft and shines with opalescence. the people are all wonderful. You get to hear all the animals sing you a lullaby. I got one bug bite and that's it. You can even walk to the square and national park or ride a bike. The location is just beautiful. I will definitely be back. Topo is super cool meet him at a bar for a drink.

Stayed Jan 9, 2025Don’t pass this experience up! Such a special treehouse created with incredible care and respect for all creatures. We were like kids in wonder and amazement from the beautiful sites and sounds all around us all the time while we stayed. We saw Tucans, leaf cutter ants, many wild birds, the sounds of howler monkeys off in the distance in the morning. We felt like we were on the set of Jurassic Park. We cooked many dinners there…this place has everything you need. The bar up the street called “Raggae Bar” is a must stop for dinner or lunch! Food was so delicious! We would definitely stay again!

Stayed Jul 11, 2022Topo’s treehouse is one to not miss !When you go in it is like entering into a fairytale!The detail that went into this is truly amazing .The bedrooms were very cool with AC units ,and even the outdoor spaces were comfortable and not at all buggy like you may think it would be since it is outdoors.The hammocks were a great place to relax in the treehouse also. The property is absolutely gorgeous and a short walk to the beach and Reggae bar.Topo could not have been any more kind ,helpful .and friendly. I highly recommend Topo’s treehouse adventure !

Stayed Mar 21, 2022Wake up refreshed to the calls of birds. Watch toucans in the trees off your deck. Spot the agouti while relaxing in a hammock. Witness the daily routines of the friendly fruit bat family. Take a short walk to the soft sand beach and the Reggae Bar. See sloths in the trees near town. Walk or drive less than a mile to the unforgettable Cahuita Natl Park, with its own beautiful beaches and abundant wildlife. Eat in town at Restaurante Pizzeria Cahuita, with its beautiful seaside deck. If you're ok with a natural experience and some creepy crawlies (e.g. cockroaches in the bedrooms in the evening) then you will be rewarded with an authentic and unforgettable Costa Rican getaway. Don't forget the binoculars!

Stayed Oct 25, 2021I have rented 3 separate treehouses and this is the only one that is truly in a tree! The house itself is better than what is listed and the property is amazing. Great location to do everything or nothing. Topos was so helpful in assisting us with everything from surf lessons to fixing a flat tire. Thank you for a very memorable stay, we will return!

Stayed Sep 27, 2021What an experience of a lifetime! Literally in the jungle with open views and new things to be seen everyday. Topo is an amazing host and very accommodating. After a long day of travel we had water fruits and imperial (Costa rican beer) waiting for us. Bring bug spray and be prepared to embark on memories that will last a lifetime! Pura Vida!

Stayed Mar 22, 2018Our family of four (Mom, Dad, girls 10 & 13) stayed here four nights in late March. First, I will agree with many reviews I had read that living in a tree house is a unique fun experience. There were three sloths living in the tree which we really enjoyed. Also a family of bats and many other critters, poison dart frogs, large bugs, and geckos came to visit. Topo's dog Shaila was also a friendly welcomed visitor every morning. Topo provided a welcome pack of juices, fruit, and a couple of beers. That was nice. However, there were some things we wish were different and better. There was only one kitchen towel provided, which can be a problem when laundry doesn't dry because of the humidity. We had to use some of the beach towels provided to get by. The was no can opener. The knives provided were extremely dull. There was a sharpening steel, but it didn't have an edge so couldn’t sharpen anything. And no extra paper products. There were two partial rolls of toilet paper when we arrived, one per bathroom, but after that we were told we had to supply our own. Another thing that made us question the overall value is the condition of the unit. Mostly, the tree house is in great shape. However, some of the floor boards on the first floor need to be repaired or replaced due to rot. It’s an open environment so water is going to enter the structure, but it should also be maintained. There was a lot of flex to certain areas of the first floor and the wood walk way leading to the tree house, that made us feel uneasy. We knew we were paying a premium to stay at such a unique place, and it is unique and the location is good, but the lack of basic necessities and lack of maintenance made us feel that the value wasn’t there.
