I loved staying at this hotel! The rooms were spacious wood cabins with a rustic charm, although a bit dark with fluorescent lights. The service was exceptional, with helpful staff who went above and beyond in assisting us with booking tours. The location was perfect, away from the town's noise but close enough to walk to the main attractions. The dining experience was delightful, offering a mix of local and North American cuisine. The facilities were top-notch, providing everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

I absolutely loved my stay at this lodge! The rooms had only the bare necessities, which worked perfectly for us. The separate, spacious lodge was comfortable, set in lovely gardens with loads of wildlife to be spotted – we saw lots of hummingbirds, some toucans, and even a sloth hanging out at eye level. A staff member called us over to show us around, which made the experience even better.

The location was fantastic, open and facing a bird table where we saw colorful birds each morning. It was close enough to walk into the center of La Fortuna but far enough to be out of the hustle and bustle.

I really enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The wood cabins were cute and basic, though a bit musty. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful, offering to set up any tour I wanted. The location was perfect, just a short walk from town, and the gardens were beautiful with lots of wildlife. The dining options were good, especially the local fruits and egg station.

I absolutely loved staying at this lodge! The rooms were set in a beautiful garden, spacious, and functional, making for a comfortable retreat surrounded by lovely wildlife. The service was top-notch, with staff going out of their way to assist us. The location, just a quick walk into town, was perfect for exploring La Fortuna. However, the dining experience, although adequate, didn't stand out. Overall, a rustic and nature-filled gem worth every penny.
