The best vegan food and great outdoor adventure experience. Loved the outdoor adventures with Lands in Love (ziplining, canyoning and forest walk) and had the best vegan food we've ever had in the world. I can't believe they house 800 dogs, 400 cats, and 18 horses and still keep the premise so clean. They have a lot of staff walking 1 - 4 dogs each time and the dogs and cats have a nice enclosure to stay in. The ziplining was incredible because there were 9 sections, one was overlooking the cloud forest on a tree, and they let my 5 year old go ziplining with the guide. The canyoning was also amazing where we had a 4 guide to 5 of us ratio. My 5 year old daughter got to try it for the first time and the guides were very creative with trying to figure out different ways to lower her. As adults, we also had a lot of fun. We had two guides join us for the forest walk and they pointed out different plants, trees, and small animals. Even though they didn't speak much English and we didn't speak much Spanish, they tried very hard and used Google Translate to communicate with us and also used an app to track the bird sounds so we could identify the birds. The vegan food was one of the best we've ever had. I wanted to try everything on the menu and was very sad when we had to leave. Would have preferred if we had a mosquito net in the rooms since there were a few mosquitoes. Appreciated the hot water, fans, and the mini fridge.

A must place to visit and stay in Costa Rica Most beautiful place! Amazing vegan food (morning, lunch, dinner), made by Naama the chef. Wonderful staff led by Alon and Meir. Most beautiful resort at the heart of clouds jungle, lots of fun adventure activities, a must place to visit and stay during a trip in Costa Rica ( we wish we could stay longer).

Animal Lover Paradise My husband and I stayed here for four days and had an incredible experience. As a vegan, I was blown away by the fantastic food options, and my husband (who isn’t vegan) loved the meals just as much. The staff are knowledgeable, welcoming, and genuinely kind. The animal shelter on the property does truly amazing work. Since it also functions as an animal sanctuary, it can be a bit loud at times, but it’s very easy to find quiet spots away from the animals when you want to relax. The excursions are excellent. The bird watching is incredible. The ability to hike either on your own or with a guide, and to choose from different difficulty levels, is something that’s hard to find elsewhere, but this hotel does it perfectly! If you’re looking for a boutique resort with an inspiring mission on the edge of the rainforest and cloud forest, look no further.

Best expiernce we had with Lior Esh from Land un Love חזרנו לפני פחות משבועיים מטיול חוויתי במיוחד בקוסטה ריקה. זאת הפעם הראשונה שאנו נעזרים בחברה חיצונית שמארגנת לנו את כל הטיול (הכל כולל הכל). קיבלנו הרבה המלצות על ליאור אש מחברת Lands in Love וכבר כשיצרנו את הקשר הראשוני הבנו שאנחנו בידיים טובות. כבר בשלב התכנון ובניית המסלול שיתאים לרצונות שלנו ראינו שליאור ממש איתנו ומנסה לתת לנו הרגשה שזאת הולכת להיות הרפתקה מיוחדת. התוכנית עבדה בול לפי לוחות הזמנים והמקומות שתוכננו, נכון שפספסנו אתר אחד (מתוך כ 20) אבל זה בגלל שאנחנו הארכנו בטיול רגלי שקדם לזה. המפגש עם הטבע בג'ונגלים עם כל החיות בסביבתם הטבעית, המדריכים שידעו לרדת לעומק ולהסביר לא רק על הטבע והחיות אלא גם על החיים בקוסטה ריקה, האוכל שלפני הטיול הנמיכו לנו את הציפיות ממנו היה טעים, לא יצאנו רעבים (הקפדנו לאכול במסעדות פשוטות שהמקומיים אוכלים בהן). ליאור דאגה כל יום לתקשר איתנו לשמוע איך עבר היום ואם יש בעיות וגם לתת לנו הנחיות מדויקות ליום שלמחרת. הרגשנו שכל סנט שהוצאנו מקבל את התמורה המלאה ויותר. קוסטה ריקה מדינה מקסימה ותודה לליאור שהפכה את הטיול שלנו לחוויה וזיכרון נעימים. משפחת ורד

Would go back in a heartbeat - a very special place that cares for animals and humans alike ❤️ I was blown away by the staff and volunteers' dedication to animals and the place. We stayed in the hotel for 3 nights and had all our meals there. There was so much variety, so much attention to detail and the chef (and co-founder) clearly has a passion for food. We walked the dogs every day (a personal choice but happy to help, as there are about 600 dogs to walk 3 times a day) in the lush surroundings. The rooms are a little dated but very clean and we didn't want for anything.

A Unique and Unforgettable Experience in Costa Rica 🌿🐾 During our trip to Costa Rica we stayed at Lands in Love, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our journey. This is not just a hotel – it’s a rescue center for animals, and everything here – the hospitality, the tours, the activities – is designed first and foremost to support them. The atmosphere is truly unique: endless green landscapes, peaceful walking trails, lakes, and pure serenity. The rooms arecharming, with beautiful views of the forest and mountains. The vegan kitchen is excellent – creative, flavorful, and surprising even for those who are not vegan. There are also many adventure activities around, making it a perfect combination of fun, relaxation, and meaningful travel. Above all, the staff, professional, and attentive – making the stay feel warm and personal. In short, Lands in Love is much more than accommodation – it’s a full experience with a real added value. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Costa Rica 💚
