Lovey lush property that cannot be beat. Plenty of activities, our 8 year old loved the water slide, soccer field and basketball court. There is also a paddle ball court but it was $60/hour extra. All other amenities are free. Free unlimited coffees from a machine in the gift shop was wonderful enjoyed plenty of cappuccinos! Perfect location, it is on a quiet, small side road just outside of town. We enjoyed walking down the road to get volcano pictures and the neighbourhood properties/farms. It is a safe area. The hotel itself is completely walled in, you cannot see inside the property at all until the wall slides open for you when coming and going. Staff are friendly and quick to help. They will drive you around the property on a golf cart if you like! Accommodation is individual villas, we had a luxury one with the whirlpool on the deck but they all looked private and concealed with natural flora. The room was modern and tidy. We requested house keeping clean the floor but unfortunately it was just swept or vacuumed, they don't seem to mop, the floor was filthy (made our feet black) the entire four nights we were there. I would say this is the only thing that could have been improved upon. We had a car, it was just a couple minutes to town by driving. We would absolutely stay here again as a base for exploring La Fortuna area. Pick this hotel if you want a quiet stay, immersed in plants! Restaurant had good food, free (delicious) breakfast and the servers work so hard.

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.

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
