Im 31 yrs old, male. Canadian from Toronto, Canada. We spent 3 nights at Moana Lodge for my honeymoon recently Feb 2012. We had one of the Junior Suites (The Toucan) The room was mind boggling.

We arrived in Mal Pais a little clueless but thankfully we stumbled upon the best accommodation in the area. We were on a surf trip. Moana Lodge is spectacular from start to finish. It offers the best views by far, luxury rooms, staff that go out of their way to ensure everything is to your satisfaction and a fantastic restaurant.... More

We are so happy we found this place..there are many options for accommodation in Mal Pais but myself and fiancé happened upon this place and found everything we were looking for in Costa Rica! Originally we had planned to stay a few nights and then move on to a new area, however after a couple of days we both decided... More

We finished a 9 day trip through Costa Rica by staying two nights at Moana Lodge. What a place! We stayed with friends who had been there before, so we benefitted from their recommendation. The surrounding landscape was really nice, and the room was very clean. Pool area was cool too. But perhaps the best part of Moana was its... More

This was our second stay at Moana Lodge in 4 years. The hotel has grown, with the addition of the beautiful restaurant with amazing views, and the additional rooms. Owners, Vickie and Aidan, still run this place with great attention and detail. The included breakfast was the best we had in our travels in Costa Rica. If you are going... More
