This felt off the beaten path even though it was less than five minutes to the main road and only fifteen from the Monteverde Cloud Forest reserve. We saw a coati as soon as we arrived, and we saw a toucan while eating breakfast. We also went on...

We absolutely loved Cala Lodge. Really comfortable location, breakfast was wonderful. We loved the trails on the property and the number of birds we saw. We probably saw more birds on the Cala Lodge trails than we saw in some of the reserves...

The breakfast was a quick, easy way to start the day. There were four different choices and always came with fresh fruit. The kids loved the pancakes and my wife and I were big fans of the bottomless coffee and tea.
