Installation de plomberie à moderniser

Very pleasant stay and beautiful surroundings, close to the city. However, it would be important to install a mixer tap for the shower. The mixer is an outdated system and absolutely not practical. In addition, the quality of the meals served for delivery by your partner restaurant is deplorable.

We stayed here as a family of five (with kids aged 13, 8, and 5), and it was a wonderful experience. The pool was perfect for our kids—just the right size for them to enjoy and play safely. The location is great too; it's within walking distance to downtown La Fortuna, which made exploring easy and fun. The daily breakfast was delicious and a great way to start each day. We would absolutely stay here again as a family!

Great hotel with lovely plants and greenery

Hotel was very nice - the premises were very beautiful with each cottage having its own veranda with beautiful foliage. Room is a bit small but very comfortable. Location is also very good. Breakfast was tasty.

Great location wonderful stay

We had a fantastic stay. The staff was kind and helpful, breakfast was delicious Every morning, the pool was our favorite part. Grounds were lovely and we were able to see beautiful flowers a little bit of wildlife, lizards, and birds and snakes. It was close enough to town that we could walk but far enough away that it was quiet And peaceful. The bed wasn’t the most comfortable, but we are quite picky about sleeping accommodations.

Overall a good experience but the double room we booked was very small and had no room for our luggage or to hang clothes. Rooms were noisy . The breakfast was ok with no smiles from the staff. The hot water was very inconsistant.

Gated property with staff available from 7am to 9pm daily. Very close to Fortuna and all of it's restaurants and shopping. Beautiful grounds and a breathtaking view of the volcano from the pool. Breakfast provided was buffet style and delicious with options from eggs and sausage to fruit and cereal. Some traffic noise and bars on the windows and doors. But we felt safe and comfortable here. Housekeeping daily, all of the staff were friendly and helpful.

A nice place with wonderful staff.

Lovely grounds and very friendly and professional staff. The rooms were modest and sound proofing was not great... The included breakfast was a bit sad. How can fruit not be fresh in Costa Rica same with watery coffee. Pool was nice and a good temp and all in the place was very we kept

We stayed here for 6 nights and loved it. Our room was clean and comfortable and spacious. The grounds are gorgeously landscaped with lots of bird watching opportunities. Great pool. Delicious breakfasts. Friendly and helpful staff. 5 minute walk into town for shops and restaurants. Super convenient spot for various day trips.

this property was really walkable to all the good restaurants/ coffee shops. also I was traveling solo as a female and Marcos, Vanessa and the rest of the crew were so helpful anytime I needed anything. I felt very safe walking to the property and had no issues getting a taxi if I needed one at any time of the day.
