I don’t normally write a review but feel I must. This hotel is not what we were expecting 1. Staff are unfriendly, they look tired and overworked. Don’t want to be there. 2. Our room’s bathroom smelled like gas when I raised it they said they fixe it. Felt unsafe due the strong smell. 3. Toilets were getting clogged which meant more bad smell. 4. Breakfast is the worse I’ve ever had. For what you pay for the breakfast was super poor. I’ve been to cheaper hotels that offer more. Also breakfast ends at 9:30am and you get really bad looks if you get there at 9am. Overall super outdated hotel for the price.

Outdated rustic hotel

Very basic, rustic and outdated hotel. No adjoining walls in our unit and quiet. Hot water in the shower but not the sink. Poor value for money but not unusual in Costa Rica. Walkways poorly lit at night and slippery when wet. Had a great meal in the restaurant but breakfast was a bit disappointing. Plenty of birds around and also saw a venomous Coral snake by the open air restaurant. Pool area was popular with families. Can’t drive car up hill to unit, but staff brought luggage to/from rooms on electric golf carts. Room had good A/C, OK WiFi but was very dark at night. Light switches were inconveniently located and not many electric outlets ( typical in the time the hotel was built). Away from the noise and traffic of La Fortuna.

Excellent location, nestled in the forest, close to all activities. The rooms were gorgeous with great attention to details with amenities such as personal pool, jacuzzi, etc. Although it rained half the days we were at La Fortuna and we were travelling with a baby, the fact that our villa was surrounded by nature, allowed us to enjoy the rain forest vibes. The hotel and restaurant staff were friendly and considerate.

Don't eat at the restaurant!!!!

Our room was very clean and the pool was great. However, the tin roof on room 405 was extremely noisy. The rain and what ever was dropping from the trees made it vey hard to sleep. Also there were a lot of animals not too far away making a lot of noise. The restaurant is ok for breakfast if you are ok with birds eating the cereal before you get there. Evening meals....below sub par!!!!

The facility was well maintained. I'd recommend this resort for couples or for a family. A 15 min drive from the town center. Perfect if you have a vehicle.

Rooms are spacious and well kept. We stayed in the same room 12 years back and did not find any change in the furniture, bathrooms, and look and feel of the property.Considering we are vegetarian, dinner in the restaurant was not that great. Pool is small and could be crowded if there are lots of folks on the property.

Excellent Costa Rican experience

Vey private sprawling resort with gorgeous landscaping full of huge rainforest plants and bromeliads, plenty of space between bungalows. Great volcano view and fun pool bar. Excellent staff. Extra spacious rooms. Interior was a bit dated and not the comfiest beds. No mini fridge. Loved the private jungle view outdoor porch and Jacuzzi tub
