The Lodge was spectacular and the staff friendly, professional, and helpful. Within hours of arrival, they knew our names. The room was large, private, clean and very comfortable with a large deck overlooking the rainforest, a huge bathroom and our own private hot tub. We did many activities through the lodge (hiking, yoga, night walk, bird watching tour) and the guides were excellent. The food was delicious and very fresh. Each dish was beautifully plated and generous. 5 stars!

My overall review of Origins Lodge is 3/5. The price is too expensive for what it’s worth. I was charged $15 for papaya juice and the hotel doesn’t offer an A La Carte Menú. Very few limited options for lunch and dinner and that’s why my wife and I decided to eat in Bijagua, a town nearby where they offer local food. Looking at the bright side, the room and bathroom was impecable and clean. There are a few things that could improve such as replacing the walkie-talkies with real telephones. It made it really hard to communicate with lobby and restaurant. Also, the hot water runs out too quickly. The hotel depends heavily on solar panels and the outdoor fireplace to keep the jacuzzi warm. The outdoor activities were were not advertised as we thought as it was going to be. Apparently you can do all the activities in a span of 2 hours with the same tour guide. The staff are somewhat well trained and need to work on their communication skills or at least show that they like to work there. I recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to be far away from the city and enjoy the rainforest filled with fauna and flora no other place can offer. I would definitely come back again. We did the horseback ride activity, went fishing, did the trail, and did a deep tissue massage which was wonderful.
