The amenities were clean and well presented daily. The staff is courteous and always willing to help with any challenges experienced. The added bonus was the restaurant on the property, which served fantastic meals daily, so there was no need to ever depart the location in search of a good meal. Overall, excellent location and place.

The room was very clean and the staff was lovely. I stayed in one of the hotel rooms (not a bungalow) and unfortunately the walls were extremely thin. The family next to me yelled and had kids screaming all times of the day starting early, and even with ear plugs, sometimes their banging on the wall jolted me awake. The restaurant was convenient, food was basic. Good location for doing things in La Fortuna.

The staff really make this place, including Luiz at the lovely on-site restaurant. The location is nice and quiet, about 20 min walk to the bustle of town. And all the tours and activities offer transportation so we never needed a car. I know it’s only 3 star, but the rooms could use a few extras, like glasses, access to ice and/or a coffee machine. Thankfully we were allowed to keep a few things in the communal fridge behind reception. For the price, this was a great place to stay!

Lovely property, spacious rooms, beautiful landscaping and an excellent on-site restaurant which is not owned by the hotel, but independently operated. We ate breakfast there every mornng, and one evening had dinner there. Great food each time. Owner very kind and helpful. Mades left beautiful towel scupltures on our beds every day which was a delightful surprise. Would definitely stay here again.
