Wonderful property, helpful staff. We saw so many birds and even a sloth and baby from the breakfast nook. The rooms open right out into the lovely gardens and pool area. The breakfast is filling and tasty, and eaten in a covered outdoor area. Walkable to the town center. Highly recommended.

Beautiful property. You're surrounded by foliage. Staff amazing! So helpful with everything. We stayed in a double Queen room with our kids. Mostly quiet (neighbors can be noisy). Breakfast was really good (3 options every morning with coffee, juice and fruits). This place books up so get your spot quickly. In downtown La Fortuna so easy access to everything. We'd come back!

Lovely gardens, nice hotel.

Breakfast is typical Costa Rican fare, tasty and filling. The room was comfortable. Noisy neighbours could be heard thru the walls, but it got quiet each night by 9. Staff is friendly and helpful.
