Amazing mountain lodge with tons of birds. I staed here as part of a birding trip and had a great experience. The grounds are beautiful with good bird feeders. Room was very comfy and clean. Restaurant was great and staff super friendly. I will definitely be back.

Quirky place! Check out the odd carvings and plentiful charging stations! Great for proximity to beautiful forests and waterfalls. Abundant bird life. Restaurant is really terrific. Accommodation is spacious. We enjoyed the pool. Recommended!

El Pelicano hotel in the mountains is Truly a beautiful spot to take in the views, mountains, nature, birds, pleasant climate. The staff is exceptional A+, the ambiance is exactly what we had hoped to find! The restaurant is very nice with a good menu selection and the included breakfast is super fresh! The price of a room is very reasonable as well as the dining here! This hotel gets a top rating for hospitality, ambiance and quality for the price!

We walked to El Pelicano for breakfast today because the view and staff are exceptional. The property, the owners, the coffee, and the food are special and not to be missed. Birds and flowers surround you as you sit and breathe in the mountains and fresh air. We have stayed here in past years, and every accommodation is met by the owners and staff. This place is heaven on earth.

Lovely facility! I would highly recommend! Everything was well cared for and spotless. The staff were helpful, friendly and thoughtful. The view was stunning and all the plants and flowers with all the birds and butterflies was gorgeous. The little art gallery was an amazing adventure! A must see!

Yes, this hotel has nice gardens and had a good location near the national park, but the rooms are simply awful. Ours had two beds and a small wood-burning fireplace in the middle of the room and that was it! This place has potential, but the utter lack of amenities (most of which cost very little) is shocking. Here is only a partial list of what was missing from our room: No hand towels. No cups for water. Poor lighting. One single harsh bulb in center of the room. No bedside lamp. Small wood burning fireplace was filthy with ashes. Evidence of bat or rodent feces on the bed sheets. No table. One single cheap plastic chair was brought for us to sit on. No place to put suitcases or personal items except on the floor. Wonky lock on the sliding glass front door that could easily be forced open. No blankets. Just thin sheets and a faded worn bedspread. No hooks anywhere to hang anything. No waste basket. I regret we spent the money to stay here.

We stayed at the hotel December 2021 for 2 nights in a room in the main building. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The restaurant very good offering local food and fish. Our room was very nice room and had a great view overlooking the valley. The entire place is great for bird lovers.

There was no sheet on the bed. When you’re undressed for bed is no time to go to the lodge to complain. The TV didn’t work. Otherwise the grounds were beautiful, and the food was good. I saw a jaguarundi cross the lawn.
