Arte de Plumas birding lodge0

The staff was so friendly and helpful. Andre took us right to he Sunbittern. He pointed out many species at the lodge. There was great viewing from the lodge and the 2nd large viewing platform. He also arranged a pass to the Rancho lodge for our first sighting of the Snowcap Hummingbird. Daisy is an excellant chef and paid special attention to our dietary restrictions. Our meals were so delicious. She made sure everything was perfect for us. The rooms were comfy and spotless. Daisy is always working and very loveable. Omar was super friendly and helped me with my Spanish, as was the other fellow. I loved our stay here and the natural surroundings. Quieter and less crowded than some lodges. I was very sad to leave.

I didn't like leaving.

Nice rooms in a common building. Dining area was open to the kitchen. Nice atmosphere. Natural setting with good birdwatching. Natural ponds as well. A second, separate raised deck is great for relaxing and birds as well. Staff was amazing. Andre always helped us with birding the gardens, and took us right to the Sunbittern on the first morning. Daisy is an amazing chef. Daisy was always busy, too busy. Daisy prepared delicious food and took care of our dietary requirements. Daisy made the best chicken spaghetti, I have ever tasted. I would eat at her restaurant.

A door to the bathroom would be more normal. Walls too. Even a curtain in the doorway to the bathroom would help.. A couple of comfy chairs on the main floor would have been nice.

The property is absolutely beautiful. This will soon be a premier birding lodge that will be perfect for bird enthusiasts and even more so for wildlife photographers. The staff is wonderful. Daisy and Iznelia are wonderful cooks and the lodge is immaculate. Andrey is a great host, bird photographer, and made transportation arrangements that were reliable and convenient.

The rooms are very nice. I would like to have screens on the windows to deter insects,

modern feel, wonderful birding at and nearby the lodge, the staff were great!

It was cold! Almost every space, including our room was open to the elements. In some locations this would be fine but so high up in the mountains it was just chilly the whole time. Also, the lovely modern space was so nice, but the upstairs needed more furnishings and things on the walls (framed photos that the owner has taken would be nice).

spacious and very clean. open plan aspect and the view was fabulous. Freddy and Daisy were so welcoming and helpful and Daisy provided lovely breakfasts, lunches and dinners - excellent home cooking. Freddy was very knowledgeable about birds and took us on a couple of days.

Nothing really but the doorless bathroom was interesting!

The lodge is a a modern open design which keeps the property cool. We had a very clean and spacious room. Free beverages available throughout your stay. Both breakfast and dinner were delicious. Daisy and Freddie were very friendly and helpful . Freddie is very knowledgeable about nature and gave us a wonderful morning birdwatching tour. The lodge has several bird watching/photographers hides from which we saw many species. Highly recommended.

Fantastic location Food was plentiful, freshly prepared and delicious - Daisy was amazing Modern room and very comfortable lodge Great terrace with hummingbirds right in front of you

Limited hot water for showers (on both days and morning and evening) Room could do with a fan just to cool a little bit

Incredible scenery, location, structure, and room. The host (Andriy) and chefs were a delight and the food was INCREDIBLE. We couldn't have asked for more and they were very accomodating with our 9 year old daughter.

Comfier chairs on the balcony, a more private bathroom space in our room which was very open plan.

Modern lodge with great view, feeding stations to watch birds from close, large garden with lots of plants attracting butterflies and hummingbirds, great breakfast in the morning (Thank you, Daisy!!!)

The lack of doors to the bathrooms

The place is a bird photographers dream. Numerous birds and excellent locations.The lodge is open and airy Spectacular views all around. Food is fresh and plentiful Staff knowledgeable and attentive.

There's nothing not to like except I had to leave and return home.
