Phenomenal place to recharge in nature
Our stay at Mikado was nothing short of phenomenal. The incredible Lolo and her wonderful team + family have truly built a slice of heaven on earth. Our bungalow was cute, cool, comfy, spacious and private—nestled right in the woods. The Mikado grounds are beautiful and very special—with lots of stunning views, a refreshing infinity pool and shaded hot tub that are both open at night, two lovely trails to hike, and a warm dining area where each visitor is treated like the guest of honor. As if Lolo wasn’t enough of an all-star for building and running this place in tip top shape, she also is an incredible chef who was able to serve us nonstop prix fixe deliciousness even while accommodating my significant dietary restrictions. With the resort built atop a hilltop forest tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Tamarindo, there’s no better place for a nature lover than Mikado. We saw howler monkeys, tropical birds, iguanas, frogs, toads, lizards—and that was all just from the luxurious comfort of the pool! And because it’s a small resort without too many guests at a time, the facilities all felt very private. We cannot recommend this place more highly and honestly could’ve stayed MONTHS longer than we did. Don’t miss the opportunity to treat yourself by staying somewhere so special.

Lolo the owner is a great host. The cabin is very clean and nice. The road to the place is not good, which accounts for a average rating. One caveat is to make sure you do not go on a road recommended by WAZE where you have to cross a stream. Call the owner and get direction's for another route.

Hi Myron, thank you for your review. Yes you took a bad road. I contact you with WhatsApp but you never read the message how advice you wish road you should take. So sorry that you had a bad experience with the road. I think is not fear to give a bad note because waze give you a ron way. Warmly Lolo

I loved the seclusion and safety of the property. I was not prepared for the rough dirt road to it, however.

El hotel divino, la habitación que escogimos tiene una vista increíble, estaba súper limpia. Los host muy amables. Lo único que no nos gustó es el camino de acceso al hotel, esta muy deteriorado.

Hola Yadira, gracias por su comentario. Si el camino en tempora de lluvia es un poco deteriorado, pero tambien eso protege el crecimiento de la civilisazion. Y por eso protege la selva.

This was a last minute trip and it was everything and more. The Mikado is an experience. Anyone seeking the serenity of Costa Ricas nature make sure you check out this gem. Lolo took care of us and made sure we wanted for nothing. Very grateful. Gracias
