"We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property. Despite our short stay, we loved the secluded hot tubs, spacious and clean room, and excellent food at the restaurant. The friendly and accommodating staff, from the receptionist to the bartender and waiter, made our experience memorable."

"My partner and I booked this property however when we arrived at 7pm, there was a large gate blocking the entrance and no one was there. We tried and tried to call and message the property and never received a response. La Fortuna is somewhat out in the country without many on the spot lodging options. It took us until 945 pm before we were able to get a far from desirable accommodations. We were preparing to sleep in our car by that time. We have yet to receive a refund or response. There...

"Before you book there, you have to be aware that you have to pass through the yard of charming people to get to the room, but they have a big dog (German Shepherd) that greets you with much enthusiasm by jumping on you and playfully trying to bite your arms…Not the best experience, even if you love dogs… They do their best to hold him when they hear you, but when they don’t, it can be scary… The room itself is large and airy, the king size bed is very comfortable, it is super clean, but the...

"This was our first stop on our trip and it came highly recommended. We stayed in room 40 which was a bit of a hike to the restaurant and reception. The room was very quiet and the balcony and windows were spectacular. Walking up the hill to breakfast we saw plenty of entertaining wildlife including a coati family playing in the trees. The property was truly unbelievable. I should have paid closer attention to the eco part of the lodge. We prefer to stay in accommodations with air conditioning. It was very hot in the room. We kept the fan on but the screen doors were torn and we felt unsafe leaving them open overnight. The staff in the dining room were wonderful and extremely welcoming. They gave us tips of where to look for an eyelash viper. Our first night we ordered the dinner special and it was way too much food. They saved it for us and replated it the next night which we were so grateful for since our room didn’t have a fridge and we hated to waste so much food. They certainly went the extra mile. We booked one of the complementary hikes around the property and wish we had signed up for the others. We loved the pool
And hot tub and the grounds were really stunning. It is a bit of a drive if you plan to do activities in La Fortuna but the experience was incredible."
"Good location - walkable to downtown San Elena (souvenirs, restaurants, supermarkets), also close to Centro Monteverde (drivable). Right next to a local soda (convenient for local/easy meals).
Great room - lots of space in room/bathroom for family of 4. Beautiful view and was relatively clean. A/C and fan worked quick, no concerns.
Fantastic Staff - Jocelyn was very helpful before and during the trip! They were very kind and accommodating as well. The breakfast was fresh made + was delicious."
"Hotel room clean and spacious,

We loved our time at this wonderful hotel."
"This place is stunning! The pools and springs were a huge hit with our large group and the grounds are breathtaking. Beautiful view of the volcano and very easily accessible to all of the activities you would want to do in the area. The included breakfast was a gem with an omlett station and delicious plantains and local cuisine. We saw a toucan, sloth and so many other birds on the property."
"20 minutes from downtown La Fortuna.
Expect to travel about 5km of rough gravel and potholes on a road where locals live. There are signs along the way to keep you on track; I would not stay here without a car. The property grounds were well kept. There were 13 bungalows in a row; not a resort as the name states (no gym,no activities, no spa, one small pool, one small restaurant, no lobby etc). Regardless, I felt safe and secluded enough to enjoy peace and quiet. I strolled the property and saw some birds and a few frogs. Please note: there is no actual spa on the property, but a masseuse can come to your bungalow to provide services. This must be scheduled ahead of time as the masseuse does not stay on the property. Communicate with staff via WhatsApp about your ETA if you’ll arrive before 9 am or after 6pm. We were provided with welcome drinks and staff helped with bags from assigned parking to the bungalow, which was much appreciated.
The cons: the snack audit upon arrival. Staff had to count each item in fridge and on the counter then informed us of the price of each item. That was annoying after 12 hours of traveling and just wanting to shower and rest. The shower and sheets had a few strands of hair, shower had spots of mildew along the caulk at bottom of the glass, shower water did not stay hot, one key provided per bungalow. On the reservation I noted that I was celebrating my birthday but there was no acknowledgment. Not a bad place but one visit is enough for me."
