I would totally recommend staying here! Very clean, beautiful property, very spacious rooms. Amazing volcano view. A small common area with microwave, water boiler, etc. Small but clean pool. Very good soda just around the corner. Breakfast is in another hotel, but was okay.

Loved our stay at Fortuna Retreat. Our room had a stunning view of the volcano. Property and room were very clean and well kept. Our breakfast was included at a nearby small restaurant in a lovely setting, just a short walk down the road. The property is a short drive from the main town and we enjoyed the peace and quiet.

The rooms are large and beautiful with an amazing view of the volcano. The lush garden and the nice pool make it perfect to relax after a day full of fun activities at La Fortuna. The bathroom and shower are luxurious. Staff are very friendly and helpful. The included breakfast just a 2 minute walk to the neighbouring hotel is decent, enough to fill you up for the morning, and you can bird watch as you eat, as you are surrounded by nature. There is also a nice restaurant (soda) just around the corner. We loved our stay there.

We stayed here for 4 nights. It was very nice and comfortable with a beautiful view of the volcano when the clouds weren’t low. It was close to many things we did in the area. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Place is just as shown in pictures. Retreat is gated. The breakfast that is available down the road has 3 options with fresh delicious fruit. Also provides a grab and go sandwich if you are leaving before they open you just need to pick it up the night before. We would definitely stay here again.

Highly recomended!

I loved the blend between design and nature of this place. The semi-outdoor shower makes the best of both worlds - an outdoor shower, without all the bugs. The garden were also very nice and the staff super helpful.

Very spacious room that was well appointed. The staff was very friendly. Breakfasts were a quick walk away and so tasty and you are treated to a wonderful bird show- they have feeders out and they attract many beautiful birds. We enjoyed walking the little trail there at breakfast also. We also loved the dinner from the Soda at the end of the street- great, cheap meal!! Room and property were very clean and welcoming. Highly recommend.

Very nice property - new, amazing views. It is off- the main road, so there is a bit of a dirt road to get to it. Breakfast is available at another hotel - can walk there. Overall, nice service and facility. Everything stayed damp and didnt dry during our stay - it's just part of the dampiness in the air, even in the dry season.
