8/10 Very Good

Hotel experience, not just a place to sleep
The so-so/bad: There was only one person at the check-in desk so while he was trying to help other clients, I had to wait for quite a while before I could check in. The first night we were there the wifi was out for a while. It was storming so that probably the cause. It did return later that night. After the first night, housekeeping locked us out of our bathroom. After informing the front desk, they sent someone to unlock it. The good: The complimentary breakfast is very well done. You can leave your luggage at the front desk and have it tagged. The resort will put your luggage in your room for you. The resort is beautiful and the villas/bungalows are impressive. The birds wandering the property are something you won't find at every hotel, so a unique experience to look out your window and see wild birds casually roaming. Would stay again.

The staff were all lovely. The evening rainforest walk was very interesting and our guide was so knowledgeable! The food was great and the all day access to coffee and espresso was fabulous. Our room was spacious with a large veranda overlooking the rain forest. The only slight negative was the bathroom in our room was very small just enough room for one person.

Hôtel restaurant is excellent, in the breakfast included in the reservation there were several menu options that were outstanding. And at the dinner the food is also great, if you ask for a pasta dish the sauce is done from scratch. Fruits and vegetables are fresh from the country. View from our room and from the pool/jacuzzi area is a dream. Hotel is located walking distance from La Fortuna waterfall, a don’t miss attraction. Hotel staff is always running the extra mile.

This is a small, but beautiful property. Its stylish and warm. The staff were excellent, just extremely kind, friendly, and very helpful. They assisted us with every thing we needed from recommendations to transportation. There is only one resturant, but the food is amazing, 10/10. Aaaaand its a 10 min walk to the famous La Fortuna waterfall. When i return to La Fortuna I will be staying here again.

Our stay was wonderful! The hotel is beautiful! it’s a quiet hotel where there’s not an over whelming amount of guests. It’s near by town, for food and activities but the restaurant inside the hotel is very good as well, and the waiter and staff are very friendly! The staff at this hotel specifically Josue and Jhon were amazing and so professional! Jhon helped us plan and book all of our excursions and he was a pleasure to work with! Josue made this trip very memorable, he was so inviting and knowledgeable. The hotel has a nighttime tour to see wildlife (I highly recommend it!) Josue did our tour and he taught us so many new exciting things about the beauty of Wildlife! Overall it was an amazing trip and beautiful stay. Highly recommend staying here!!
