amazing Mundo Milo

Our family of five, including three children, had a marvelous experience at Mundo Milo. The hosts, Lieke and Michiel, were extremely helpful, kind, and accommodating. They gave us lots of tips and advice to make sure we had the best experience possible. We enjoyed the local beaches, the hotel pool, the excellent breakfasts, and the delicious dinners. When we first arrived, Michiel sent us to the beach in time to participate in releasing baby turtles with a local nonprofit. Lieke helped us tend to our sunburned kids. We would love to go back.

A wonderfully small (seven-unit) eco-lodge run by a very friendly and accommodating pair (Micheal and Lieke). They helped with efforts to arrange ground transport to the lodge and a fishing charter, provided helpful tips on local hiking trails, provided critical updates which allowed my wife and I to connect with a last-minute baby turtle release event, and even assisted by loaning me a personal copy of their Costa Rican bird book! The pool was beautiful, spotlessly clean, never crowded, and very refreshing. Unlike the water in many other pools, the chlorine content was well-balanced and not overwhelming. Staff were charming and responsive. Plastic was almost completely absent from the lodge (bring your own shampoo). Interestingly, the pathways were swept clean daily, NOT with a loud leaf blower, but rather a simple rake. We stayed in the Persian #1 unit, which included a covered patio (doubling as a bird watching blind). The included breakfast was substantial. While always incorporating a yogurt and a bowl of seasonal mixed fruit, one also could add a plate-sized pancake, eggs, and seasoned rice with black beans. For lunch, we often ordered a salad - which arrived with a garnish of finely spiral-cut carrots and beets, along with cucumbers (I enjoyed the grilled chicken addition). A carafe of H2O, with limes and mint was a nice option. Diners were fantastic! The beef tenderloin steak was nicely prepared (at $22 USD, it was the most expensive offering).

We had an amazing stay at Mundo Milo for two nights and were very sad to leave this beautiful place. The food was excellent, playa Junquillal stunning, and the friendliest hosts who helped us organise our transport and even let us know when we could go see the turtles hatching on the beach! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful spot along the Nicoya peninsula.

The owners make you feel at home. Not a 5-star resort (obviously), but a very authentic eco-tourism experience. Our kids loved it there. Delicious food and drinks (much better than surrounding restaurants) with a dart board and ping pong table in the open air dining area. You need a car to get around although the closest beach is within walking distance. The closest laundromat is 25 min away, so bring enough clothes to last for the duration of your stay. The constant humidity means that you can never air-dry anything! Also bring plenty of mosquito repellent. I would recommend choosing a cabina that has air conditioning. (All but one have it, I believe.) Lieke, Michael and their team made our stay so lovely. Since departing, we stayed at a 5-star resort to experience the hot springs, but the kids keep talking about Mundo Milo. If you want luxury and fine dining, this isn't for you. But if you want a memorable stay in the jungle, then this is your place. 😊

Extremely moldy and dirty - Please read

This is an unbiased honest review because not too many other reviews have outlined the truth about this hotel. Please, beware that the room is EXTREMELY moldy and VERY dirty, including spider webs over your bed, pillows that have big mold strains on the inside, bedsheet stained with blood, little insects crawling on your bed, and with many insects (spiders, nits, etc.) also crawling on the floor. The smell of the mold was unbearable. The outside patio was very dirty, the pillows and seating area were outdated and also dirty. The bathroom was not cleaned and had hair, insects, and the seat was left uncleaned for at least weeks. We booked 3 nights but left after the first. The restaurant food was delicious though and the hosts were nice. Overall, I wouldn't stay here again because I like to sleep in a room that doesn't resemble a pig stall.

From the moment we arrived we felt comfortable and relaxed.

This is a hidden gem. We got there on Tuesday night, which happens to be Sushi night. I’ve had Sushi all over the world, and this rates very highly. The cabin was cool, with some odd touches. The staff is great, great place, and a very good value.
