Good location with trails and rainforest however this is basically a 1-2 star hotel. They don't clean your room or surroundings once you check in, there is a limit on number of towels and it's far from the town.

Simple facility- beautiful surroundings.

While the room was quite spartan, the grounds are beautiful, as is the large deck with a spectacular view of the volcano, Arenal. The staff, especially Anderson and William, were warm, friendly, immediately responsive. Communal meals were delicious and a fun way to commune with fellow travelers. The only disappointment was the distance from the Arenal national park- a good 40 to 45 minute drive from the resort.

We thought the property was beautiful and the beds were very comfortable. The dogs and cats were super nice and loving as well. The ambience was truly wonderful. It was a bit difficult to find staff at times and we never found the pool- but we were gone during the day and the darkness sets in around 6 pm. Overall it was a very cool place to stay and everyone was very friendly.

Good value in the jungle

Very good value for money, very quite and with friendly staff and a location right in the forest. The view from the common areas is spectacular. Has the best natural pool you will find in the forest! Offers dinners for 15$ and breakfast for 7$ The last 400m road to the lodge is a bit rough but doable in all cars

Property is stunning with trails and waterfall, pools and mud bath. Staff is exceptional (esp Anderson). Love the dogs, too (missing you, Princess)!!! Offers breakfast and lunch and there's a nice restaurant only a few steps away (2 for cocktails) Might be best suited for guests younger than I (70 ), but staff was so helpful. This place is absolutely beautiful!

Beautiful setting, great service, friendly staff

This place is amazing! The setting is out of this world, you are basically surrounded by a tropical forest. The rooms are plain but clean, but the ambience has exceeded our expectations! The staff are friendly and the service superb. Couldn't have found a better place to stay. If you stay there, make sure to do the Adventure Tour, my teenager rated it as one of the best experiences in La Fortuna!
