Uma das nossas melhores experiências de estadias

Uma experiência incrível e privativa numa região muito gostosa de Monteverde. A estrutura do quarto è impecável e todos os recursos foram maravilhosos. Disponibilizaram comidinhas no frigobar e também outras coisas mais.

The bungalows are gorgeous! You’re in a secluded, wooded area with beautiful landscaping and lights. The sloth trail is cute. The hot tub (private) was heaven and the staff are very friendly. Very private setting. The coconut (alcohol free) beverage upon arrival is delicious!! If we ever go back to the La Fortuna area we will definitely stay again!

Very unique and beautiful property. The staff was wonderful from Sol at the reception and on the property jungle tour where we saw sloths and an owl and to Arlen and the fabulous staff at the restaurant. The breakfast and dinner were great. I would highly recommend.

What a great place to stay. It is very secluded and quiet. the rooms are big and clean, love the shower area with two rain showers and the window int he shower makes one think you are bathing outside. The beds and comfortable and the outside sitting area in great for a evening. The hot tub outside is very much needed after a long day of walking and exploring the near by town. it is within walking to all the shops and restaurant. We had a car but it is easily walkable. The breakfast is delicious, especially the Typical Costa Rica breakfast. Service for all staff surpassed out expectations. I will definitely be back soon!

Nice but construction

I am mixed on my review. Beautiful place, comfortable bed, nice room. But they were doing construction and it was noisy in the afternoon and early in the morning. I think they should have disclosed that. I went to relax and really couldn’t.

I had an incredible stay at Noah’s Forest, and I cannot recommend it highly enough! From the moment I arrived, the front desk staff—Allan, Sol, and Anna—went above and beyond to ensure I had a wonderful experience. They were welcoming, attentive, and accommodating in every way. I especially appreciated their kindness in allowing me to check out a bit late after my spa treatment ran over. I felt so bad about the delay, but they assured me it was no issue at all, which truly exemplified their exceptional hospitality. One of the most memorable parts of my stay was waking up to the soft sound of rain in the rainforest. It was so peaceful and serene—an experience that truly allowed me to disconnect and embrace the natural beauty of the surroundings. The restaurant at Noah’s Forest was another highlight of my stay. The food was absolutely delicious, with a wide variety of beautifully prepared dishes that exceeded my expectations. A special shout-out to Arlan and Adrian, who were phenomenal. Their kindness, warmth, and professionalism truly brought the “Pura Vida” spirit to life. They made every dining experience memorable, and their outstanding service added an extra layer of enjoyment to my trip. The live music in the evenings created the perfect ambiance, making for a truly special experience. Overall, Noah’s Forest provided an unforgettable experience with top-notch service, amazing food, and a team that genuinely cares about their gues

We had the best time at Noah's forest! The staff was so nice and the place was beautiful and tucked away in the jungle. I also highly recommend their night frog tour... we saw SO MANY frogs! Would have stayed longer if we could. Thank you!
