10/10 Exceptional

Amazing setting and great location
This was one of our favorite hotels as we traveled through Costa Rica. The view from the room was incredible of the Arenal volcano and it was set in the rainforest. We woke up to seeing toucans flying around not far from our balcony. The location was a perfect for all of our activities of La fortuna. We would love to stay here again in the future if in the area.

Lovely setting, wonderful staff; mattress hard and bumpy as a rock; couldn't close patio door behind us so the beetles joined us in the room.

This is the second time that have stayed at this Resort. It was fabulous for both stays. The staff are absolutely lovely and accommodating. The food is delicious. The property is tucked into the rainforest and so beautiful, but it is hilly. The views from the rooms are spectacular!!
