If you are staying in fortuna… stay here!!!! The staff, the facility, the rooms, the food all are five star!!! The owner was on site and absolutely the most gracious man ever! The in room spa services with chocolate and coffee scrub was a piece of heaven. My first solo trip to Costa Rica and I will absolutely stay here again. Close to the activities and a quick Uber ride to town. All an amazing experience I was planning on one night and I stayed four. I would never leave this oasis.. no kids lots of birds and flora.. decorated beautifully and thoughtfully. The staff was top notch!!! Attentive and fluent in English. Just a wonderful place!!!
