Cala Lodge

Cala Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"Our stay at Cala Lodge was an absolute delight! What a very special place Francisco and family have created! We loved staying in the Mathilda House. It was perfect for our family of 5, ages 14-82, nestled in the cloud forest with floor to ceiling windows. It was incredible to see wildlife pass by, we felt lucky to be guests in their well-loved and protected forest. We had dreams and conversations with the howler monkeys throughout the night, and agoutis, coatis and diverse birds were easily seen from the living area and rooms. The staff were welcoming and helpful. Our home was clean, spacious, beautifully contemporary, and well-provisioned, and we received quick support when we had needs or questions. Breakfast was delicious and enjoyed with stunning view over the mountains. We loved exploring the trails and talking with other happy travelers. I will recommend Cala Lodge to family and friends and am grateful for the time that we enjoyed there!"
