Quiet, hot spring pools
A perfect place to relax. And, if you are tired of relaxing there is a canopy maybe 900 m away. But don’t worry you don’t notice that when you are in the hotel (close but no noise). I like the hot spring bath and its close vicinity to beautiful flowers, a green forest in the background and a richness of birds. There is a good restaurant near it if ever you are with no car.

Basic Budget Option
Pros: 4 warm spring-fed swimming pools which are emptied each night, pretty and relaxing. View of the (dormant, and often shrouded in fog) Arenal volcano. Clean rooms with large showers with hot water. Wild Curassow birds walking around. Mostly guests who are Costa Ricans (some international tourists) with families/kids for your kids to play with. Cons: bathroom is separated by a curtain (not a door). The toiletries provided are 2 small bars of soap (no shampoo, conditioner, etc.). The room has a small fridge but they ask you not eat in the room, rather in the shelter by the pool area - so unless you have pizza delivered by scooter or bring all your own cooking equipment, you'll need a rental car or taxi to head down the unpaved road to Highway 142 for lunches and dinners. We've stayed at several other places in similar price ranges and breakfast was skimpy compared to those places. The server is not very attentive and you'll need to insist if you would like Rice and Beans, Plantains, or water. It's nice to sit outside for breakfast - but due to the proximity of the cow dairy, there are small flies that join you at breakfast. We stayed several nights and the manager and his mother were definitely pleasant, but overall we had more comfortable rooms and warmer hospitality experiences (more connection/interaction with the host family) at the other places we stayed. That said, if you're comfortable with basic accommodations and have kids, this is a viable option.

Amazing view and great family
We stayed here with our kids ages 11 and 10 for six days. The thermal pools were so relaxing and the view was unbelievable. Our family got to experience true Costa Rican culture at this hotel. Albert, his mom, and the other staff are so accomodating. The animals are so fun to see and if you wish spend time with them. The family runs a dairy farms and is very respectful of the environment. We were a short drive to La Fortuna but yet out of the touristy area. We highly recommend this hotel!

Outskirts of Town
I thoroughly enjoyed the hotel and was not taken a back by it's rugged location. It is on the outskirts of town, up a dirt road. On the dual sport, it was actually quite fun getting to the property but if you don't have access to a vehicle, this might be inconvenient having to rely on taxi service into town and back. The pools were great, fed from the hot spring water and the room was clean with good beds and a mini-fridge. Nice breakfast in the morning, but if you are an early riser, you might want to have some snacks available since breaky doesn't start until 8am. I will stay here again when visiting the La Fortuna/Arenal area.

I enjoyed the beautiful natural surroundings of Loma Real, and it was not to far from the city center. Albert was a great host, regularly checking to make sure we were comfortable and happy. He offered suggestions for tours and restaurants. The typical Costa Rican breakfast prepared by his Mom every morning was simply delicious. The room was simple but clean, linens were provided daily. Totally relaxing atmosphere in the thermal springs. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

Very quiet and peaceful place to stay
I loved it there, so tranquil. Family run, they also have a farm with cows and horses and take good care of everything. Pool with hot spring water is filled fresh every day. About 5 min by car outside of La Fortuna so you almost need a car. Taxi is 3000 Colon to La Fortuna.

Simple, genuine & very down to earth kind of hotel
We had a fantastic stay at Loma Real. You live in a simple but comfortable rooms in small houses in a beautiful garden with a stunning view of The Arsenal volcano. The place is surrounded by a farm and the the family owning the farm. It was great experience to get insight to a Costa Rican family life and the farm doesn't bother the hotel complex. The queen size room was small but comfortable for two and the host showed us the room and asked us if it was ok so i guess they are open to change upon availability. There was a certain smell from our room but it was VERY clean so it was not from that. The TV wasn't working well but that didn't bother our stay. However, the only negative we have to say is that We felt somewhat limited due to no coffee/tea maker, no fridge and no utensils in the room being a mandatory taxi ride from all restaurants and supermarkets. But the family was welcoming and showed great hospitality and friendliness to have our needs met by using their fridge and coffee maker and such. Overall, for the price you get a lot!

Charming family-owned hotel located on their farm
This was our favorite hotel in Costa Rica. We particularly liked that it's a small place on a family farm a little ways away from the main tourist action of La Fortuna, and also that we could spend each evening after dinner soaking in the hot pools in the garden. We loved having fresh milk and eggs for breakfast (from the cows and chickens wondering about) and trying our hosts homemade queso fresco one morning. The garden and surrounding hills are really beautiful. Volcan Arenal is very close although we only saw the base because of cloud and rain. The other guests seemed to all be Costa Ricans which we also liked and the owners are lovely people.

Sweet little spot - recommended!
What a lovely little spot! It's located on a working farm, so don't expect a luxury resort, but if you want an authentic Costa Rican cabina and local hosts, you'll definitely enjoy this place. Far away from the hustle of La Fortuna, the setting is rural and set back quite a ways off the main road.

2/10 Poor

Too expensive for the service.
We arrived to the place hoping to see something according to the expense. The hotel is in a separated area in the woods with a farm nearby. It would have been a fair stay had the price was 60% less.

6/10 Good

Ok and friendly but expensive.
When we arrive we had the very bad first impression cause the hot spring pools were very fool of people, not guests, but day-users, our room was right next to the pools so it didn't feel like a nice romantic place but a crowded public place. It all started to feel better the next day when the place was not full of non-guests. The rooms are small and simple, but very clean. The family that owns the place is really friendly and very folkloric which might be nice for tourists which want to know the real people and not corporate images. Breakfast was small but delicious. I considered the price to be high for the type of facilities, but I guess this is a local issue, rather than an specific one from this hotel in particular.

Hieno näkymä tulivuorelle
Hotellista upea näkymä tulivuorelle, sijaitsee keskellä vehreää luontoa. Rauhallinen ja rentouttava tunnelma, mukava henkilökunta. Ainoa miinus on sijainti, noin 5km matka keskustaan. Kävelimme sen muutaman kerran, mutta matkasta yli puolet on tien reunaa, jossa ei ole jalkakäytävää. Lähellä ei ole kauppaa. Sopiva muutamaksi yöksi.

4/10 Fair

It is listed on Expedia as having a pool side bar
In the listing it is said to have a pool side bar who is false. It also says that there is AC in all the rooms and that was false. The TV was VERY fuzzy and remote did not work. When booking we were charged an extra 16$ per night for an "extra person fee" when we had no extra people and upon arriving were not granted our money back. Ladies were very nice but one rude man seemed to be running the place. Nice view and pools were a plus but there were all smaller than expected. Overall not what we expected for 60$ a night !
