Spectacular
Spectacular property. We had a beautiful room that was all the way in the back so it was super private. Each staff we met were fantastic. Easy access to town through Uber, and a beautiful pool to spend the day relaxing if you choose. We had to leave before breakfast was served and they made us lunchboxes to pick up on our way out - we were super grateful. They even printed out a picture of us at the Falls. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Michel, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The welcome drinks were delicious, the room was absolutely gorgeous with plenty of room for the four of us. The complimentary breakfast was delicious and the fresh fruit was so sweet. The pool was nice and the night walk was awesome. We saw several frogs, lizard and a snake. If I came back to Costa Rica I would definitely stay here again. 10/10

Great Boutique Hotel
Ti-fakara hotel was fantastic. The service at the hotel was outstanding. Our air conditioner stopped working in the middle of the night and a repair man was sent immediately to fix it! Breakfast was wonderful with hot options, fresh fruit and juice, and buffet style continental options. Dinner at Bosque was the best meal we had in La Fortuna. The hotel is near the falls an oOn a clear day you can see Arenal from the restaurant and pool area. The only downfall was that the rooms are quite small. If you need space, I would recommend booking a room with two queens even if you dont need both beds. Overall we had a great stay!!

Great experience at this lovely hotel
Our family of 4 (two teens) had a great time here. The setting is incredible and the service was top notch. It felt very luxurious to us, even though it’s not a super fancy place. The staff was so lovely and helped us book really fun excursions. I highly recommend the night walk on the grounds of the hotel. We saw some very cool frogs and snakes!

Loved the friendliness of staff. The location of the property was stunning. On our free night walk tour we saw red eyed green tree frogs as well as other creatures-amazing! Highly recommend for those who want to be away from the hustle and bustle of the town and want walkable access to the Fortuna Waterfall.
