The property has great service, the shuttle to the beach/nature preserve is great. It is conveniently next to the small airport in Quepos.

Fantastic stay at La Foresta! Beautiful property, great breakfast and the pool area is nice for a refreshing dip at the end of the day. All staff were super polite and helpful and would absolutely recommend!

This was one of the best resorts we have ever stayed at. The staff and service were amazing. Renaldi, Rebecca and Evaline as well as others who we didn’t get their names went above and beyond in making our stay so wonderful. Also the grounds were immaculate and the rooms were large and comfortable. The breakfast was pretty good, but we purchased lunch and dinner and both of those were so good. My favorite part was all the iguanas during the day hanging around and all the geckos at night keeping insects away. If we ever return to Quepos, Costa Rica we would definitely stay at this amazing resort.

This hotel was excellent. It was clean, staff was friendly and the setting swas beautiful. The pool was on the small side & the water was hot but still we were in it every day. There is pool service for drinks & food which was perfect for just relaxing after a day of play. Breakfast was Costa Rican style food with buffet somedays & order on the menu others. There is also a nature trail on the back side of the property where we were able to walk. Saw so many squirrel moneys, birds & other creatures. For dinner there is a restaurant on site but we were also able to walk a short distance to a soda & another restaurant that was delicious. I would highly recommend staying here.

Hotel simples e limpo que vale a tarifa cobrada!
Mesmo sendo o hotel localizado à beira da estrada, o barulho nao incomoda! Quarto e banheiro enormes, com decoraçao antiga e básica! Limpeza muito boa! Varal disponível tem grande utilidade! Jardim belíssimo e bem cuidado! Café da manhã servido num buffet poderia ser melhor se o funcionário responsável fosse mais agradável e simpático! Hotel localizado a uns 11 quilômetros da regiao de bares e restaurantes mais movimentados! Tarifa corresponde ao fornecido pelo estabelecimento!

As others have mentioned, there is noise from the road and I had wished there wasn’t so much noise from the weed wicker’s and blowers. However, our stay was very nice, the housekeepers did an amazing job as did many other workers on property. We did have an issue with the free shuttle on one occasion- we were dropped off at the beach and we’re assured that we would be picked up- we were not, we waited and called, after being stranded for 1.5 hours we had a taxi return us to the property. This was disappointing, as we could have taken our rented vehicle paid the parking fee and would have came out ahead. Would I stay here again, most likely - despite the noise and being stranded.

This spot gets 5 stars due to their staff. Wow, everyone was so kind and helpful. We had all of our birding gear with us and would bird watch on the property. Often, staff would come up to us to make sure we knew about a birding spot nearby. The breakfast was tasty too! Other things we appreciated about this property: The number of hangers they provided. How large the bathroom was They were the only hotel we stayed at that had shampoo and conditioner! Plenty of towels Some improvements we would love to see: Stronger water pressure Adding Acopian BirdSaver curtains or the window decals to prevent bird collisions with the windows. We had a few birds collide with the windows and that is very dangerous for them More foliage. I know this part is knit picky, but I felt like the property was too manicured. I thought we would have a little bit more of a rainforest around us.

The staff was friendly and helpful. Excellent and tasty food options, definitely recommend the watermelon gazpacho and ceviche. Our room was back toward the pool and restaurant area so road noise was not an issue as mentioned in other reviews. The trail behind the property was really neat and we got to see some capuchin monkeys and a yellow headed caracara. Unfortunately, the zip lines were closed for maintenance the day we were there which was a bummer but good to know they check it weekly.

We spent 3 nights at La Foresta at the end of our vacation. The property is beautiful and well maintained. The pool is excellent! We spent hours in the trails behind the hotel and never saw another person. It was a unique opportunity, and we enjoyed it. We saw the most animals and birds just sitting on the patio. The place is so full of life!! The downside is the noise. Not only from the highway, but the leaf blower that was running every morning. We hated that leaf blower!! Food at the bar was pretty good, but the restaurant was not great. Overall, the resort is gorgeous, and we enjoyed our time there.

The property is big and has an onsite forest trail which is nice but the downside is that there is no entertainment at all, at night you have to drive or a take a taxi to town as there is nothing around and they don't do anything in the hotel itself, the breakfast was also very basic and not much options The rooms are spacious and nice though and the hotel is well maintained

There were a number of issues with this property from worst to least worse: 1) The property added an extra unrecognized and hefty charge to my card a few days after I left. Still in dispute and still no explanation (after 2 months). 2) The property is near a busy highway and the windows aren’t noise insulated. The room was quite noisy at night. I did go out and get ear plugs. 3) the staff don’t man the front desk. They weren’t there when I checked in or when I checked out. In both cases I had to wait 30 minutes. When I left to get ear plugs for the noise I also had to wait 30 minutes for the front desk to open the gate.
