We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff are friendly and organized. The onsite restaurant is delicious. There’s plenty to do on the property with the spa, various pools, gyms, and other outdoor activity. It’s safely and conveniently placed near the active parts of town and night life. We highly recommend staying here. The only negative was how loud the birds are that are onsite, but when on vacation I’d chose that over the sounds of sirens and cars racing in the city at home.

From the time we arrived at the resort, I knew we were going to have an enjoyable and memorable time. From the warm welcome from the staff to the wow factor of our room and the grounds, every minute detail played a part in the overall experience. We will definitely return when we next visit Costa Rica.

The place is beautiful and we felt safe while staying. I understand that no matter where you stay in Costa Rica there will be bugs and such staying with you. We felt the resort could have put more effort in maintaining that the doors to the room closed without gaps that allow bugs to get in so easily. There was a large gap under the entrance door and also a gap between the sliding doors. At night we had to keep the lights off to not attract the critters into our room. I woke up each morning to ants being around my toiletries and toothbrush. The staff was helpful and responded quickly to any questions we had.

The place was quiet and peaceful. We had the pool to ourselves the couple of times we used it. The two things that I was on the downside is that the vegan options for breakfast was extremely limited. The one time I ate there with my children they were nice enough to provide us with oatmeal. I wasn’t sure if i ate there again would i have been charged since oatmeal was an extra charge so I decided to make my kids and I our own breakfast. Also, there was a weird noice in my room that sounded like a knock on my window. The sounds started at 5am and continued till 7am for the 3 nights I stayed there. I still don’t know what it was but it was weird. other than that the place was beautiful. I just with their breakfast meal was more inclusive to everyone dietary needs.

We spent 5 nights here. Resort was full, but quiet! Beautiful, clean and very safe. The ceviche was to die for! Alright we had a river view room… we could not see the river. It didn’t matter. You could hear it and the view no. The less was beautiful with all the trees and flowers, the birds singing and the goose cackling. So peaceful. Our family really enjoyed our stay.

This property was bigger than I expected. Not really walkable, downtown la fortuna was about 15-20min away walking. Staff was very nice and friendly. It kind of sucked having to walk up a hill just to go eat breakfast go to the pool or leave the area in general but overall good experience, property was very nice maintained and you could see the volcano from the restaurant most days we were there too

We stayed here very last minute. We were supposed to stay at Arenal Waterfall lodge for our 3 nights in La Fortuna and after the first night I said no way. Luckily the 1 king bed/1 twin bed with private jacuzzi was available for our other two nights and SAVED our trip! It was so luxurious! Everything we hated about the other hotel this hotel had done right. There were no bugs in our room, it was super modern with plenty of outlets and lights, and you still felt like you were in the jungle even though you were close to town, because of the luxurious gardening. Plus after a long day of hiking when you are too tired to move, there is a fabulous restaurant on site with the most attentive kind waiters! In addition, this hotel was as spread out as Arenal Waterfall lodge but the smart people at this hotel had golf carts to help people with all their luggage! It is so spread out that we were never once bothered by noise of another guest. We felt like we were secluded in our own piece of paradise! The room was spectacular. There was a separate toilet on one side of the bathroom, a separate shower (with waterfall/rain shower head) and a huge vanity in the middle. The bed had ample outlets. There are various light settings, black out curtains controlled by a remote, and the A/C was perfect. The highlight of this room was the private jacuzzi. sitting in it while it rained was something my 13 year old still talks about!
