We love Cedrela and Al Mercat!

Cedrela is nestled in the mountains of Costa Rica. It was easy to navigate there. The accommodations are clean, but the standout of Cedrela is the restaurant, Al Mercat. We had a fantastic meal and ate nearly everything on the menu (advice - go with at least 5 people so you can effectively share!).

In December it was rather cold but they provided enough bedsheets to keep warm. The bed was a bit soft and noisy but OK. The menu of the restaurant is quite limited but everything we tried was absolutely delicious. Service was excellent, very kind people work there. The views were very nice. Definitely worth the stay!!!

Rooms #1 is in urgent need of refurbishment. Missing window, curtains, fireplace doesn’t work, electric shower heater on the MB doesn’t work, curtains missing, WiFi not working. The location is great, the view, the restaurant. It’s minor things that should easily be fixed.

The food at Cedrela Ecolodge was fantastic! It is gourmet and all locally sourced and sustainable. The chef deserves to win some major awards. It is the best food we have ever had in Costa Rica and some of the best food we have had worldwide. The cabins are nice and comfortable and have lovely views. The trail on the property goes through beautiful forest and we saw Quetzals along the trail. Highly recommended staying at this establishment.

I liked the environment very much. The food was gorgeous and the service excellent. The rooms were very small and the bathroom actually without hot water, which my husband especially disliked. A little cold at night , but with the heater it was ok.

Beautiful area. Cabins nuce. Chef is incredible! Dinner was amazing. Ficus hike moderate, lots of ups and downs, like most of costa rica. Coffee and avocado farm interesting. Arranged a successful Quetzales tour. Other lodges in the area have bird feeders with fruit and Hummingbird nectar. Cedrela does not. Hot water in shower was hit and miss.

Stunning place, food and service!

Well, where do I start!I have had the best time! The place is so peaceful and beautiful, the perfect place to rest and recharge with nature. The service was really approachable and professional. The staff is proud of where they work and to deliver some of amazing food. I stayed for 5 days and tasted nearly every dishes on the menu. All dishes are created and composed with care looking at flavours, texture and originality! I loved it and was looking forward to seating down in the restaurant looking at the beautiful view. The room is comfortable with great bed and a very large window which connect you directly to the nature. Thank you to all the team, front of house and chefs. I had an amazing experience. Bravo great establishment . Daisy Rollo

Hace dos años viste el hotel y me encanto la estadía, en esta ocasión no fue tan agradables, el precio pactado en la aplicación fue de $84, con impuestos, al pagar me indicaron que los impuestos no estaban contemplados pague $94.92, el menú es de pocas opciones, pero si bastante delicioso, y no están los detalles anteriores como el pan o el chocolatito artesanal de cortesía. Las cabañas son hermosas, limpias y confortables. El staff no fue tan amable en esta ocasión, ni siquiera nos preguntaron al salir como estuvo la estadía o nos invitaron a regresar.

Fans un cadre de montagne magnifique, petit lodge avec une vraie volonté écoresponsable et éthique. Le personnel était très agréable et aidant pour nous aider à organiser les activités (et pour gérer une maxi araignée dans la chambre!). Restaurant très bon utilisant que des produits bio et locaux piur une cuisine costaricienne différente. La chambre était propre, très simple et salle de bain en pas très bon état (pourrait être mieux pour les installations sanitaires).
