Quesada hotels

Pros: The food was very good and of highest quality. The location was just amazing, it didn’t feel like a hotel but more like a jungle resort with private hot springs and great cocktails at the bar. Great value for money in general.

Cons: We loved everything

Pros: Great staff!

Pros: Hot Springs, drinks.

Cons: Little too pricey in my opinion for what you are getting.

Cons: Nothing at all.

Pros: Overall, this is an awesome property. The facilities are great, especially the on-site hot springs. It's nice to have separate cabins, as there is no noise from your neighbors. The staff is professional and friendly, and the grounds are beautifully landscaped.

Cons: The breakfast is a little limited, and whoever was cooking the eggs while we were there did not do a good job.

Pros: Everything was amazing. The free breakfast was very nice with both typical American and Tico fare. They gave us a free facial for staying 2 nights. I also got a great massage. The Spa is beautiful and tranquil. The hot springs were fantastic and unbelievably uncrowded. The staff were super friendly and helpful.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Great location, beautiful, well kept property and awesome staff

Pros: The room was unbelievable, very spacious and with great views of the volcano. The hotel offered a very complete set of facilities, including some nice hot springs. Overall, a great choice for Arenal.

Cons: Not for someone looking for a boutique-style hotel. Breakfast was a bit overpriced.

Pros: Very clean. Updated

Pros: The room was amazing. Staff were friendly and helpful. The spa was also great.

Cons: The food was really expensive and bland. Needs significant improvement

Pros: Simply outstanding. Terrific in every respect!

Pros: One of the best hotels I’ve ever booked. The staff was amazing and was extremely helpful. This property has it all!

Pros: Great place to stay beautiful room and great view. Staff were very friendly. 20 minutes into town.

Cons: Drinks were over priced.

Pros: Homey, family environment. Lovely staff.

Cons: I couldn’t stay longer

Pros: The property is stunning and has incredible views. Definitely felt very exclusive. We had a huge balcony with jacuzzi tub overlooking the volcano. The whole feel of the room and the resort is very rustic and lush. There are springs of all temperatures, sure to please everyone. The staff is very friendly and very helpful which greatly adds to the exclusiveness of the hotel. Even the drive up to the hotel is very scenic. A lot of activities available for kids and for adults. Very relaxing place.

Cons: The food could have been better. My partner and I felt it to have been mediocre even though the service was excellent.

Pros: Comfortable room amazing view and pool and springs are awesome

Cons: Got violent food poisoning on the last night from the burger. Threw up all night...really ruined end of my trip. When we told staff they did very little. Restaurants are ok food isn’t that great and service overall is not 5 stars. Had better service at nearby eco lodge. Was told no more then yes and they were not accommodating.

Pros: Exceeded all expectations

Cons: No

Pros: This hotel has it all. The staff are amazingly friendly and helpful. There’s more swimming pools / hot springs than you can count. There are numerous restaurants on site. The views on a clear day are second to none. The hotel also offers a wide range of activities.

Cons: The only thing I’d change is the weather. As we have come during rainy season the weather can vary a lot and change quickly. Nothing can be done about that.

Pros: Great layout of the hot springs. The rooms were awesome. Very relaxing place to stay

Cons: The resort pretty much shuts down at 10, seems a little too early when check in is 4pm.

Pros: The grounds of Nyara are beautiful. There are many pools and beautiful gardens, but I was doing a lot of site-seeing, so we didn't really use the grounds. The restaurants had incredible food.

Cons: The room was not as nice as expected. I expected a king size bed, not two doubles. The room was a garden room which was very dark.

Pros: The property was beautiful. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. The wildlife on the property was really cool.

Cons: The family pool was small and crowded with children whose parents had left them unsupervised to go to the adults only pool at Nayara Springs. As a result, it is extremely noisy in the casitas anywhere near the pool and the pool and pool bar were unbearably loud. A no-unattended children policy would help.

Pros: Wonderful staff. Great breakfast buffet. Very romantic atmosphere and private rooms with outdoor showers and private outdoor jacuzzis. Unique and special place.

Pros: Our villa was in the middle of the rain forest. Enjoyed siting in the terrace and listening to the sound of the river and watching arenal volcano. What a peaceful and relaxing experience. We woke up every morning to the sound of birds and monkeys. Delicious breakfast. Great service. Very good location. Everything was just perfect.

Cons: Imposible to think about anything negative.

Pros: So MANY Things. First off, Wine Lovers worried about finding quality wine in Costa Rica, fear not! There is a wine bar on site, with a great selection of wines (also the restaurants on site have a good selection as well). Second, the staff here is incredible. There are not enough kind words to say about how great they are. The cocktail selection is great, and the breakfast at Nayara Springs (connected to Arenal Nayara, effectively if you stay on one side of the property, you have free range access of both sides of the property), is AMAZING, and you get free mimosas, and have an unlimited choice of what and how much you want to eat for breakfast (for free!). The pools are lovely, there are stations with umbrellas, bug spray, and sunscreen around the property. The hotel left us a dinner in our room because we arrived after all of the restaurants closed. It was the perfect hotel experience in the rainforest. Could not have asked for a better, more restful trip.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Amazing experience! The hotel was breathtaking and the staff went above and beyond to always make sure we were happy!

Pros: I cannot say enough wonderful things about this hotel and most of all the staff. Every one went above and beyond to make sure that we were happy the entire time. The food was EXCELLENT, we had fresh towels in our room twice a day, the front staff addressed me by first name from the second we pulled up, and the private tours are absolutely worth the extra cost (request seyres!!!!) Every area of this hotel looked beautiful, lush and impeccably clean.

Cons: The lighting in the bathroom was dark, and the pool on the family side left much to be desired, but we spent most of our time out in the rainforest anyway.

Pros: The food was amazing, wine bar was to die for. The rooms were amazing with private pool. Very clean. One phone call and the golf cart was there to pick you up. Good activities in the night all at the resort. Being immersed in nature and an all around good experience.

Cons: Noting it was all good.

Pros: Nayara is a great place to stay! The room was amazing - featuring jacuzzi on the terrace secluded by the dense plants/trees as well as nice outside shower. The hotel area is pretty big, so everyone is using karts for transportation. There are several restaurants for lunch/dinner, so you have a nice variety of options (and cuisines) to choose from. Pool areas are very chilled and not crowded at all - really enjoyable! You can also get a nice massage or do a morning yoga class being surrounded by nature, which I loveeeed :)

Cons: Nothing at all :)

Pros: The entire staff was extraordinary. The food exceeded our expectations. The facilities were beyond beautiful. Simple put, the BEST vacation stay of our entire lives!

Pros: Love the choice of restaurants

Cons: Reception staff

Pros: Rooms, facilities

Cons: Price of breakfast

Pros: Had a wonderful stay. Great location to explore the rain forest of Costa Rica. Had a wonderful room with beautiful views. Fabulous bathroom with huge Jacuzzi tub and separate shower. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Great to come back to the resort after hiking, zip-lining and ATV-ing and relax at the hot springs. Will definitely return.

Cons: Breakfast was very expensive. Buffet was $25++. The bill was $125.00 for our family of 4. We shopped in town and had breakfast in the room. Was still enjoyable. There was a fridge, coffee. Would be nice to have options for breakfast.

Pros: Rooms, food, Staff, everything

Cons: The valet gave my car to another guest!!, Do not know who this happens, luckily I new the guest. I was never told the reason why this happen or apologies too about this situation. They just sweep it under the rug!!

Pros: The property is beautiful, the staff is excellent, the hot springs and shangrila are unbelievable. The water is so amazing in its natural setting. The water is very healing

Cons: I liked everything!!

Pros: Beautiful springs, beautiful restaurant (Toucanes). Spa was incredible!

Cons: The bar pool needs an update. It’s the first thing you see when you enter the springs and it’s an eye sore - doesn’t go with the decor.

Pros: The hotel is beautiful but what’s out of the ordinary is the hot springs, they are really unique, a must do in Costa Rica

Cons: Breakfast, it’s all the same everyday

Pros: If you've never experienced the rainforest, then I would highly advise booking a few nights at this resort. Honestly, the pictures on the website and social media do not capture the magic of this place. Once you arrive you'll be impressed by the staff and the hotel's attention to detail and their willingness to cater to every guest and their needs. This place is a true oasis in the middle of Costa Rica that everyone should experience at least one time in their lives. I highly recommend booking the Tabacon Resort and Spa for a luxurious and restful vacation.

Cons: No complaints

Pros: Yes

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Incredible hot springs and thievery member of staff went above and beyond to help us out

Pros: Clean, friendly , and beautiful

Pros: A great experience, and a amazing place.

Cons: Dinner, food and drinks are very expensive.

Pros: Attention to detail. Extra loving care. ..nice creativity on the bed, sheets pulled back and curtains drawn at night..preperation for bed. Outside spa...whosoever came up with the spa bungalows outside...genius idea!!! High five

Cons: Jets working in the spa

Pros: From the moment I arrived the staff welcomed me and made me feel like my satisfaction was their priority. I was provided with a review of the property and amenities. One of the staff members brought out a tray with a fresh towel, two beverages, a candy and a flower on it. What a great way to arrive in La Fortuna! Jimmy arranged my excursions and called taxis for me when I wanted to explore the city. The staff answered all of my questions and provided suggestions. The level of personal service was top notch. Each evening a staff member would bring a sweet cake to your room - compliments of the house. That was a pleasant surprise. The breakfast that was included in the rate was amazing and there were plenty of options. Of course the coffee was terrific. I loved sitting on the dining room patio and taking in the beautiful ornamentals and the fresh air. The property is beautifully landscaped and you can see Arenal from almost every angle. In the evenings I enjoyed the thermal pools. The hotel has a variety of pools with varying temperature ranges. I am so glad that I stayed here! I will most definitely be back.

Cons: I wish I could have stayed at The Royal Corin longer. I did not want to leave.

Pros: Staff were excellent. Welcome drinks waiting on arrival, a welcome treat sent up to the room, and staff couldn't have been more helpful throughout stay

Pros: Perfect place for my stay in the Arenal area . This hotel has beautiful gardens, and all the rooms have a spectacular view of the Arenal volcano. The hot pools , sauna are awesome. I actually see the staff clean the pools at night. I felt safe and rest assured of good night rest, the room and the bed so comfortable. It's actually luxuriously furnished. They have an awesome breakfast buffet, I've enjoyed this hotel a lot and i highly recommend it. There's an awesome spa and wellness area, although i didn't use it because of time element, i could tell they provide a great experience. Last but not the least, the Staff are so friendly and accommodating . Le Miz , Jeff at the reception desk, Naomi at the restaurant and Estella at the omelet section and the wonderful waiters and waitresses who served , and i cannot miss the housekeeping who created towel animals on our room to welcome us from our day trips... Thanks to all for helping us celebrate our 28th wedding anniversary in Costa Rica.l

Cons: None to mention

Pros: Comfortable and luxury rooms, great volcano views.

Cons: Food at rhe bar a little pricey

Pros: The location

Cons: The price is too high for what it is

Pros: Everything is very nice, clean, comfortable. Very nice breakfest, and the hot springs pools area in the evening is very fun!

Cons: The stuff in the reception is over nice, sometimes you want to ask a simple question and you get so much talking that you forgot what you wanted to ask. It was annoying at some point.

Pros: We really enjoyed our stay. The rooms were extremely clean and in good order when we arrived. breakfast buffet service and food was exceptional, The staff was very cordial and friendly throughout our stay. Whenever we needed something they were there to assist and make it happen. The views from our room were outstanding and the pool area was a real treat. Thanks so much for a wonderful time and memories. We will be back!.

Cons: Everything was excellent!!

Pros: Great location, very customer-centric, convenient to fun activities, interesting tours, and good restaurants

Cons: Breakfast and coffee not available until 6:30. Activities have early start times so breakfast at least by 6 would be better

Pros: The room was very clean and not moist as in other hotels in the area. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel grounds and views were stunning. Excellent thermal pools. Breakfast with huge variety

Cons: $7 for a bottle of water

Pros: The spa is amazing. The staff are extremely polite.

Cons: The pool towels were too small. One of them was dirty. No drinking water in the room. No menu for room service on the room. The water in the main pool was dirty. And tiles were loose.

Pros: Loved the rooms, pool facilities and the breakfast was excellent

Cons: It’s a little far from town and doesn’t have its own shop.

Pros: Truly a five star as indicated. The staff was magnificent in every way. The mineral springs as promised. Will likely recommend and visit at a later date as well.

Cons: Can’t think of one thing.

Pros: The omlette station for breakfast was very good. Staff were generally very pleasant and helpful. Gardens and hot springs were well maintained.

Cons: I had the chicken nachos at the wet bar, the food was terrible. And the staff took ages to serve me even though it was a quiet evening. For breakfast , the hot food self serve station wasn't very good. The empanadas were rubbery and very oily. Staff were hard to get hold of for coffee / water. Did not like the wrist bands we had to wear.

Pros: Amazing views, excellent facilities and great staff!!

Pros: We loved the quiet atmosphere and peaceful surroundings of the rainforest. Each Villa has 2 rooms in each building and is set apart from the other villas, so it feels very private. The rooms were very clean and have a beautiful view of Arenal Volcano, the shower walls are tiled with volcanic rock which is very lovely - there is a slight openness between the wall and roof of the shower allowing fresh air in, but that also means that a few bugs and humidity can get in - not necessarily a big deal, in fact kind of charming and a nice natural element to the ambiance, but it did take some getting used to for "city folks" from the States. :) The 3 restaurants were very nice. Had a good variety of options: Costa Rican food, Italian food, Sushi and Japanese food. The hot springs were great!

Pros: The shuttles came at requests not on a cycle. The staff was friendly and helpful. The food was excellent and well labeled. Great view of Arenal

Cons: Not much to dislike at all. I didn’t have time to try the spa. Next time I guess.

Pros: The staff is amazing and will do anything for you and the hot springs were wonderful!

Cons: The beds were hard and the food was good but not great.

Pros: Good breakfast. Excellent facilities

Cons: Noice around the pool

Pros: The breakfast was awesome!!!!!! Food overall was excellent. Rooms were spacious. Yoga room was spectacular. Great Spa

Cons: I wish the place was a bit more secluded or the property surrounded by mor nature and hiking paths...

Pros: Yoga in the morning. It is great to celebrate a kid's birthday there - a lot of special attention. Our youngest sun loved the gulf carts driving us around ;-)

Cons: We were in a bungalow at the edge of the plot and had a side view on ... the fence - they have a beautiful garden so would be great to put some plants next to the fence.

Pros: The staff was so friendly and accommodating. Wonderful hotel.

Pros: The hot springs were amazing with great views of the volcano, my boys enjoyed the swim up bar and the rooms were absolutely fantastic, especially the outdoor shower. The location is great if you want to visit Arenal and La Fortuna.

Pros: Thermal water pool and morning yoga were excellent

Pros: We loved the views, the hot springs, swim up bar and the food. We ate dinner in the restaurant (not the Italian one) and it was the best meal on our trip. It was a local CR dish and had so much flavor, presentation and it was a memorable meal. The breakfast choices were plentiful, too. This is a great resort and very peaceful.

Cons: The reason the resort doesn't get the highest of marks is the beds. With all the other luxuries - bathrobes, views, etc., the beds were not as comfortable as we had hoped. It was a rough night's sleep and we only had one night at the resort, so in that sense, it's a good thing it was only one night.

Pros: The good vibes :)

Pros: Beautiful new lodges with impressive view of volcano. Friendly owner shared his chicks, local sloth and knowledge of the area.

Cons: Isolated setting (and evening meal menu) but that is part of its joy....

Pros: What a beautiful place with wild animal life all around you day and night. Saw several sloths within 50m around the lodge. Stunning cabins, well done and perfectly clean. Host Jonathan is very enthusiastic to feel people his home is their home. Go there!

Cons: Nothing really, if there was something I would have told Jonathan and he will have fixed it!

Pros: very nice family taking care of every single guest. jonathan is around all the tie for his guests, you can ask him everything and he will be there to help you with information and tips. plus, the view is incredible and it is nice to be a little outside of fortuna. a perfect 10 for casa torre!

Pros: I felt very at home staying here. The property has a lovely Costa Rican farm feel and a wonderful and friendly staff to manage it. The private views of the volcano made me feel secluded but secure. The gardens around the property were beautiful and more than I expected.

Cons: No complaints!

Pros: The most beautiful hostel with the sweetest host ever! Jonathan treats you like a family member, serves the best breakfasts and provides insider tips for the best things to do around La Fortuna. We had such a good time here!

Pros: Jonathan was really enthusiastic and helpful and he and his mother made a great staff.

Pros: At night you'll listen to a thousand tropical frogs and insects and see lots of fireflies, on my first morning there there where toucans in the tree right behind, and you could listen lots of birds, plus a bunch of humming birds flying around. The view is fantastic and you'll be submerged in nature. Plus Jhonatan, the host, will make you feel right at home, he is great.

Cons: It's a beatiful place, completely surrounded by nature. But it's difficult to get there without a vehicle. If you plan on staying here, I recomend you do if you have a car or a rental.

Pros: Jonathan is a wonderfull host. He made us feel like home. It was easy to get there with our rental car. Out off the buzzy touristic village, pura Vida!

Pros: Jonathan is an exelent host.

Cons: Niets

Pros: Pool was nice, location was good.

Cons: Wi-Fi was horrible, sheets were blood stained, yuck. Plants over grown on walkways

Pros: Beautiful gardens, very tidy and clean and comfortable rooms.

Cons: Credit card payment is not allowed. No breakfast on-site possible

Pros: Communal kitchen with fresh eggs - fabulous idea for times when there is no breakfast offered by the hotel! Beautiful garden, really fabulous

Pros: Friendly staff, Big comfy beds and maybe breakfast is included but I missed it.

Cons: No blanket for the bed, and confusion over payment (was asked for cash only and spent much time trying to organize that, finding later it was not necessary), and wasn’t informed of local shuttle only told to use Uber which left me stranded and paying double. Very close to highway and no privacy from neighbors. Not bad, but not secluded oasis I was expecting based on other reviews.

Pros: Spacious and clean bungalows, big bathroom, very comfortable beds, cozy verandah with wonderful views. Situated in a paradise garden with lots of plants, trees, flowers and birds. Very nice pool and jacuzzi. And wonderful people. Our daughter got ill during our stay and they made everything they could to ease our situation.

Pros: Very good atmosphere, friendly owner who helped all along the stay. Very clean and good location

Cons: Everything was good

Pros: We really liked the small house for ourself. The shared kitchen was also awesome, just as the swimmingpool.

Pros: Staff were great and really helpful from the moment we arrived. Helped us organise our activities. Room was really nice and the grounds were really picturesque. Beautiful well kept garden! Swimming pool, jacuzzi, pool table, kitchen area available to use.

Cons: Location might be a little tricky if you don't have a car.

Pros: Kitchen available near the reception to cook. They had fresh eggs from their chickens that we can use.

Pros: I cannot say enough about our stay at the Volcano Lodge and Springs. We booked it because the rainy season rates were hard to pass up and because 95% of previous guests rated it Excellent. The room rates were so low that I wondered if the ratings could be true...but I have never had more good things to share about a hotel experience! We stayed in a superior room with an amazing view of Arenal from our porch. The property is designed so that the view from your patio makes you feel like you are at a private villa. All we saw before us was Arenal and lush vegetation. There were people next to us but we never saw or heard them. You couldn't even see where the cars were parked. It was almost total solitude. The room was attractive and clean. The beds were comfortable. The shower was always warm. Our room was only a short walk from the main pool and mineral springs which was a pleasant surprise. Others will have to walk further but the grounds are so nice that the walk is like a stroll in a garden. I read some reviews that the breakfast was adequate but nothing special. I have no idea what they were talking about! To me it was a wonderful daily brunch. We stayed 4 nights and looked forward to each morning. Most food items stayed the same but how can you complain about having fresh bananas, pineapple, papaya, and watermelon, three different breads for toasting, pancakes, scrambled eggs, rice and beans, sweet plantains, lunch meat and cheese, a waffle station and made to order egg station with 6 toppings for omelets, OJ and Mango / Banana juice, and coffee to pick from? There were also two breakfast breads each day that varied and one or two different Costa Rican hot items each day that included small sausages, chicken or sausages in a creamy tomato sauce, and several types of what they called "hash"…potato based one time and green bean based another. To top it off, the restaurant has a great view of Arenal and the pool / mineral springs area and an attentive and cheerful staff. They even attached their old bananas to a nearby tree each morning to attract birds! The pool was clean and the mineral springs area very relaxing. They just added a second hot springs and bar. The grounds are filled with beautiful plants and fruit trees with a running / walking nature trail that they are just getting going. It was a bit confusing but we loved it…especially watching the intricate world of leaf cutting ants! Bottom line...you will love this place!

Pros: It was great, enjoyed the activities around the property and the nature park around the corner.

Pros: Loved the staff, the grounds, the view, our private backyard mineral hot tub, the restaurant, in short everything. Everyone was helpful whenever we needed them.

Pros: Gardens are super nice. Good breakfast

Cons: Children were allowed in every pool area, even the one with bar. There should at least be one pool off limit. Front desk staff gave wrong info regarding bus schedules back to our home that caused major delays. Tour booked thru front desk over prices compared to tours in town.

Pros: The breakfast and service were great. Pools were clean; loved the one with the bar. I would come back. Massage was wonderful. Food prices were reasonable.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Hotsprings, rooms and food was amazing! Best location to travel around Arsenal.

Cons: Honestly I can’t come up with anything that needed improvement. Fantastic!

Pros: Really nice location with a nice view at the volcano, clean and comfortable rooms. Nice staff who will go a long way for you!

Pros: We really enjoyed staying here. Personnel was very friendly, and everything was very clean. Breakfast was great. The pool and the hot springs were a hit. Sipping on a Cuba Libre at the pool bar, or just enjoying the jacuzzi thinking of nothing was great. We would definitely stay here again! Perfect location.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Beautiful grounds! Thermal experience is romantic and lovely. The hotel is close to many adventure and hiking tours. There is a nature walkway around the property too where you can see many birds.

Cons: Couldn’t see volcano form our volcano view room because of fog, but still absolutely beautiful view of the vegetation.

Pros: The room was amazing and the view of the volcano was breathtaking. The gardens and the hot springs are just perfect. Stay here in your own private bungalow. Loved it!!!

Cons: The only negative the wait staff needs to be more attentive to the guests. They all acted like you were bothering them. However, the food was amazing. Just service was lacking for a resort of this caliber.

Pros: We were in a suit. The private thermal pool was gorgious! Beautiful flowers and plenty of hummingbirds were around it. At the background we could see the vulcano. The privacy was perfect. The room is large and beautiful. Very good value for money.

Pros: The pools the private room with own thermal spa. Food!

Cons: Would have liked access to shuttle to local area. If the shuttle was available it cost more than a taxi.

Pros: Everything was great in Hotel Secreto. We complained about some noise in our family room. The owner immediately came to check - asked someone to inspect the roof - it turned out to be the a/c from the room next door making some vibrations and upgraded us to a bigger room for the rest of our stay - even if the issue was fixed a couple of hours later. Small size well run hotel - you can go there blindly !

Pros: Awesome place to stay with great views! The place is very new and super clean and comfortable. The staff and owner were very friendly and helpful. It is also a great location right in town.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The other time I stayed here everything was really good....no complaints. Many of the things we liked the first time were still the same.

Cons: However, the room we were in this time......we could not take a shower. The water was either scalding hot or too cold. A good hot shower is an important item for us after a long humid day outdoors.

Pros: Great breakfast, beautiful garden with lots.of humming birds. Clean rooms and friendly staff. Good.parking area and view on volcano from garden.

Pros: Staff was super friendly and helpful! Great place in a perfect location.

Cons: Nothing much really, great stay!

Pros: The view was amazing and how close to town was great too. The staff was friendly and helpful for booking adventures.

Pros: Friendly staff, huge (and comfy) bed and room, very clean, fridge in the room, drinks available at reception, quite neighborhood, but just a street away from the center. Small, but nice swimming pool in a lovely garden. Parking lot with enough space. Good breakfast. You can book tours, if you would like to. Close to several parks.

Cons: Nothing. We enjoyed our stay a lot!

Pros: Great hotel

Pros: We loved searchhing for the little sloth family living in the tree beside the hotel each morning.

Cons: We hear they will be increasing the size of the pool which would be excellent!

Cons: Hot water that stayed on.

Pros: The room is very spacious, as the king size bed! Gardens are really beautiful and the swimming pool is appreciated! People from the hotel are very nice and helpful! We recommend this hotel

Pros: The area and the food were amazing. The pool was perfect. Super quiet.

Cons: In room amenities

Pros: Everything was amazing: staff, facilities, views of Arenal, pool, thermal pool with swim-up bar, and restaurant. Top notch property. Highly recommend!

Pros: I loved the pool of hot springs overlooking the Arenal Volcano. I also liked the variety of cocktails at the pool bar.

Pros: This hotel is located perfectly, in the middle of the main attractions. We loved that basically each room was completely private, surrounded by luxurious vegetation. Everything in the room and on the property is natural, very little plastic and nothing looks cheap. The hot springs are awesome and one could relax there after a day of exploration. The property is maintained extremely well, it is spot clean, staff is extremely friendly. We got complememtary fresh fruits platter 2 days in a row. The coffee in the room is awesome. If you need something and you call front desk they will send what you need in less than 5 minutes. The restaurant is really great, fine dining in the area. Fresh food for all meals with basically everything natural. Another reviewer called this property "a hidden gen" and I completely agree. The pictures on most of the websites don't do real justice to the place.

Cons: They did not have a gym.

Pros: Beautiful property, nice hot springs, excellent massage. We had two cabins across from each other. They had a shuttle that would take you around the grounds. Great parking.

Cons: Everything was awesome!

Pros: The place was amazing, the bedroom had a lot of space, we were 4 in one bedroom. The bathroom had a lot of space as well. Love the wet bars on the pools. Staff was always good a great attitude. Breakfast is a buffet, the food was pretty good and there was a lot of variety for everyone's taste. Happy hour on the wet bar is good.

Cons: The pool with the hot springs was a little bit small.

Pros: It was beautiful and the service was amazing! Rodrigo and the other staff members were very helpful and nice.

Cons: Na

Pros: My junior suite had a wonderful view of the volcano and was located right across from the swim up bar, where I grab some excellent fish tacos and spent the better part of an evening. After heavy rains overnight, I spent the morning in a rocking chair with a view of the volcano, drinking coffee before walking down to get some excellent breakfast. Beds are comfy, walk-in shower was an unexpected luxury. All in all, I definitely feel like I got my moneys worth and more at this place.

Cons: I hesitate to say this, but the front desk seemed a bit off put by the fact that I booked the same day. He had to make a couple of extra calls and didn’t do a very good job communicating with me about what he was doing. Everyone has their off days I suppose, but rarely have I felt like I was inconveniencing someone at a hotel, and this was one of those times. An inauspicious start but a great experience overall.

Pros: Beautiful resort. Tranquil setting. spacious room with wonderful view of Arenal volcano. Attentive staff. Very good food.

Pros: We stayed for 4 nights and loved this hotel. The views of the volcano are amazing on a clear day. Breakfast was great with different choices every day. So many activities in the area. La Fortuna is a 10 minute taxi ride. The hot spring pool is a bonus. We sat on the veranda at the front of the bungalow with binoculars in hand and watched the birds and squirrels with the volcano backdrop. We had lunch by the pool which was good but didn't try the restaurant in the evening as we ate in La Fortuna. The walk from the reception to the bungalow at night is a little dark so a torch is an idea. Watch out for the crocodiles in the lake which can be seen warming up in the sun at breakfast time from the restaurant. Be warned to expect rain in the green season.

Cons: Umbrellas in the rooms would be useful in the green season.

Pros: Excellent location , stunning views of the volcano. Breakfast and dinner were fantastic. Grounds were gorgeous , Luisa and exceptionally clean. Staff was very accommodating. Definitely would return !

Pros: We were a group of 53 people traveling together and the staff was amazing and very friendly. We will definitely return. Thanks for all the smiles and attentiveness ... PURA VIDA!!!

Pros: Good location, nice volcano view, exotic and romantic place! Nice and pleasant staff members.

Cons: There was a renovation/reconstruction on one of the buildings and it was making a lot of terrible noise from very early in the morning. They started at 7 am every morning Very uncomfortable pillows.

Pros: Breakfast was good and a lovely setting.

Cons: The room we had was very small for the price we paid.

Pros: The location is great, near a lot of attractions. The staff are professional,helpful and friendly. We had a private bangalow with a volcano view and a private patio, it was beautiful and calm.

Pros: Perfect location, great service from all the staff and beautiful view! Would love to come back any time!! Very accommodating and helpful to our needs of transportation or questions about attractions sites.

Pros: Excellent location away from the town with an excellent view of Arenal Volcano. Lots of wildlife around the hotel too, plus private trails to walk. The restaurant was good.

Cons: We found the room a little dark.

Pros: The view from our balcony with jacuzzi, the pancakes and the pool area was amazing. Location was just out the way for peace and quiet, short taxi to town and to other trip locations.

Cons: Squeaky bed! Very noisy! Only thing I can comment negatively on

Pros: The price, location, and view of the volcano cant be beat!

Cons: Internet was very spotty in our room and we never had a strong, consistent signal the whole time we were there.

Pros: Great place ! View on volcano! We saw animals on our backyard . Love love love the place.

Pros: Staff super friendly and answered any questions we had. The property is super clean and well kept as well as the rooms. Food was also great!

Pros: The breakfast was extremely nice!

Cons: The room was smaller and did not match up to the photos posted in the site

Pros: I loved the hot springs! The staff was very accommodating and resourceful

Pros: AWESOME!!!! SO WORTH IT! The hot springs are beautiful and amazing. Staff is friendly and helpful. We had the pools to ourselves in the afternoon. Lovely and wonderful!

Cons: nothing could be better - this place was wonderful!

Pros: Good and spacious rooms

Cons: The hot springs are available for public for an entrance fee, therefore the pools are flooded with people who do not stay in the hotel. The restaurant has the quality of a cantine which includes breakfast as well as dinner!

Pros: Breakfast was OK, nothing special. Property was beautiful but open to public!

Cons: For $300 USD/night, I expected some privacy. Room had noise issue with street and near by club music until 3:30 AM

Pros: My husband and I liked the fact the hotel and springs were quiet and not overcrowded. We liked the tropical surroundings (fauna and flora). We thought the staff were very friendly and helpful. Paradise Hot Springs is an ideal place to relax.

Cons: There was nothing to dislike.

Pros: Staff was amazing and very helpful rooms were clean pools were amazing

Cons: Lighting in the room was very dim construction around the property was a little noisy

Pros: Beautiful hotel and absolutely amazing foliage.

Cons: Selling day passes? At check in we are told entire grounds and pools are for guests until 3pm then day pass people come. That is not true, families of people started arriving around 11:30 ( private car) each day with bus loads showing up at 3. For $200+ per night and having to deal with screaming kids why trying to relax is ridiculous. My wife and I would happily pay $400 per night not to have kids running around all day/night.

Pros: It’s great, it has a wonderful restaurant that we can spend a whole day at the resort .

Cons: None

Pros: The springs were awesome. The staff was very friendly and polite and although it was very foggy and we couldnt see the volcano, me and my girlfriend had a great time.

Cons: Parking could be improved. Not enough spots, but besides that, everything was great.

Pros: A boutqiue hotel in La Fortuna with beautiful grounds. We arrived slightly earlier than check in time however were upgraded for free and seen to our room as soon as it was ready which was a great surprise! The location is on the main road (quiet road) and a short taxi ride to the main town where there are many restaurants to choose from. There were a variety of hot springs to choose from varying in temperature. One of the main pools also had a swim up bar which was perfect for sipping on a cocktail whilst soaking up the hot springs! The restaurant was great. We had breakfast each morning which had a lot of variety to choose from, and the dinner buffet was also delicious. The staff were super friendly and helpful, nothing was too much to ask and they really do take care of their guests. The hot springs are especially nice in the evening :).. I would definitely recommend this hotel over the larger resorts that are double the price!

Pros: This was our first stop in Costa Rica and we were looking for something with a view of the volcano which they provided. We had a double deluxe room that was extremely spacious with an excellent bathroom. The pool are was an added bonus in the heat. A buffet style Costa Rican breakfast was provided each morning which was great for filling up before hiking or other activities. The staff were very helpful. We arrived early on check in day and they allowed us to use the facilities until our room was ready. Location was great for access to La Fortuna and for activities in the surrounding area. We used Uber taxis for the majority of our stay which were excellent.

Cons: More loungers by the pool for the number of guests.

Pros: Quiet, clean

Cons: Everything looks good

Pros: The staff here is what really makes this place amazing. Friendly, helpful, and go out of their way to help their guests. The rooms although dated are SUPER CLEAN. Margarita at the front desk was amazing.

Cons: The wifi was non existent for our stay. We have to work remotely during the week, and the spotty wifi made this nearly impossible. It had a high wifi review, so we booked this place. Unfortunately it may have worked for an hour a day if that. The restaurant is highly priced for sub par food. It was definitely quantity over quality. Be advised to check the weather forecast. We got a room with a view of the volcano, yet the weather was so foggy , we were never actually able to see it. Not the hotels fault, but if you pay extra to have a view of it, you might just opt for something cheaper with out a view.

Pros: Located nearby the tabacon thermal place and others , clean room and very friendly staff

Cons: Updated room with old furniture , very basic, Cheap breakfast , no fresh bread and marmalade , just heavy food very difficult to eat in the morning, wry bad coffee

Pros: The landscape, the views, the breakfast buffet, and the friendly staff made this an easy 10 out of 10!

Cons: N/A

Pros: Best breakfast we had on our whole vacation.

Pros: The view from our room was beautiful. Even though the weather wasn't great for us to see the top of the volcano, everything else was lovely. We loved hanging out on the front porch of our room just shooting the breeze. The rooms were good sized. We were a group of four girls and the room was fine for us four. Having a fridge was nice to keep our store bought beers nice and chilled. The shower was great with large shampoo and soap dispensers. Note that there is no conditioner for the long haired folks. The premises has a little walking trail that goes into some of the lush that is Costa Rica. We saw a lot of bugs and birds. The complimentary breakfast was a nice to have to grab some coffee and the usual Costa Rica eats. Sometimes certain dishes run out before the supposedly end of breakfast time. The restaurant on the premise is a nice to have. We ate there a few times, lunch and dinner. They say they have gluten free options but it wasn't always available. It wasn't our favorite place, but for convenience, it was good enough. The bar has a TV. We never hung out there but saw a few people that did and it looked chill. They actually have 2 restaurants on the premise but never saw the other one open. The hotel is located in between La Fortuna and Tabacon hot springs, which was great for us as we went to both places and never felt like we were too far from activities when driving around.

Cons: While the pool and jacuzzi were great to have, more lounge chairs would have been nice. There were a few wall cracks in our room which introduced ants into the place even though we didn't have food exposed.

Pros: Perfect view on the Vulcano and the nicest staff I’ve ever met

Cons: Pool is much smaller than it looks like on the pictures

Pros: Amazing view off the volcano

Pros: Loved the little huts for the room. The showers had wonderful water pressure and were hot and steamy. Room service was on point.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Pool and hot tub were nice. Beautiful volcano views. Lots of privacy. Nice attention to detail. Great restaurant on property. Close to all attractions. Great free breakfast!

Cons: There was nothing to dislike.

Pros: Great hotel. Very nice jacuzzi area with 4 "private" jacuzzi surrounded by vegetations making it feel like you're in the middel of the jungle. Excellent restaurant.

Pros: Very friendly and helpful staff that speak perfect English. Accommodation has a nice facilities, restaurant is good although bit pricey. Pool is everything you need, jacuzzis are big bonus. Room itself is very nice and clean. Bed is very comfortable.

Cons: Location is a bit away from the city center. Due to the terrain quite a walking distance. As every accommodation in La Fortuna the price is on the high side.

Pros: Space and surroundings

Pros: The whole complex is beautiful, the pools are incredible and the hot tubs too! I stayed with two girlfriends and we got massages which were perfect in an open-side spa in the rainforest. Good location not in the centre of La Fortuna but walking distance. Breakfast was delicious and in a really nice setting. Would definitely stay here again.

Cons: nothing

Cons: Our room was smelly.

Pros: Great rooms and facilities. Good food and location. Great staff.

Pros: The property grounds are well maintained and aesthetically pleasing. Beds are also comfortable. All staff members were accommodating and willing to meet all of your needs. Breakfast provided was decent, with a variety of fruit.

Cons: Being in Costa Rica, you must expect to encounter bugs—especially if you’re room is situated on the first floor. Be aware that for rooms, at least the one I stayed in, windows and doors have a small space, which gives more opportunity for bugs to enter.

Pros: Such a beautiful place! Surrounded by trees, plants, flowers, birds, and a wonderful view of the volcano (when it is not too cloudy). The hot tubs nestled in the trees were really cool! And they also have a path on the hotel property that goes through the trees and along a river! Very peaceful! The breakfast and food from the restaurant (especially the pizza) were really good and the staff was friendly and helpful! The room was spacious and comfortable. Loved the balcony and volcano view. Great value for the money, too! Highly recommended!

Pros: The resort was a beautiful setting lots of greenery and a very friendly and accommodating staff. Had a plumbing problem first day but it was quickly resolved. Food was good and location was close to town but still tucked away.

Pros: Nice lush green garden Always fresh fish from own Tilapia farm Close to the Waterfall View on the Arenal Nice room with lots of light Excellent hotel restaurant The bird ballet at the feeding station next to the restaurant table

Cons: Missing wifi in all the rooms, only in public areas like pool, reception... 4G network is also bad in the area to make the matter worse.

Pros: The place is beautiful. The pool and hot tubs are great. When we checked in we took advantage of the special at the spa. The spa is amazing the massage was fine but the location is unbelievable, the room was open on one side facing the jungle and river I have never been to a spa before where the nature sounds were real and not played through speakers.

Cons: It's the jungle do you have to expect some bugs. There were tiny ants everywhere at the resort they did not bother anything but seeing ants crawl through the room lowers the cleanliness score to 4 stars. That being said I would stay here again in a heartbeat even with the ants.

Pros: Amazing breakfast and staff service, the buffet was very complete, they have happy hours at the restaurant and at the pool bar, the bartender is very friendly, if you want to relax and be pampered this is the place!

Pros: The food was excellent the service was excellent The view was magical we loved the property.

Cons: The bed was not very comfortable but everything else was great

Pros: It is a beautiful setting

Cons: Bugs

Pros: The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The grounds were amazing and we loved that we had access to the National Park trails. The Jacuzzi was a nice treat after a long day of hiking. The views were breath-taking! Access to other activities was relatively easy but the roads are not great. Town was about a 30 minute drive away. Nice breakfast buffet provided free of charge!

Cons: It would be nice to have screens on the front doors as well so you could have both the patio door (which had a screen) and front door open to allow a cross-breeze. The room became a bit stuffy and buggy during the day without this. Also it would be good if t pool was heated to allow swimming year round. The prices for food at the restaurant were expensive. The Happy Hour (2 for 1) would be better if they allowed for 2 different drinks vs. 2 of the same kind of drink. Finally a shuttle to town that ran even just 3 times a day would be a great perk!

Pros: We loved having so many hikes/walks to do right on the property and a very good restaurant as well. It was so nice having nature and animals outside our door each day. The staff was warm, welcoming, helpful and friendly. There were plenty of activities to do on the grounds for all ages: pool, foosball/game room, checkers, books, TVs in the main buildings and a hot tub.

Cons: Be aware that the Lodge is a 20-25 minute drive from La Fortuna up a somewhat rough dirt road. If you have your own vehicle it's easy to get to and from, but without a bit more challenging. There are taxis that cost $30 each way or a shuttle 3x/day from the lodge.

Pros: It is set in an amazing location, with amazing trails, beautiful grounds, stunning views, lots of wildlife. The swimming pool and jacuzzi are an added bonus. The frog pond and the Nest are must visits. The food is great and there is a well stocked bar. The service is excellent with friendly and happy to help out staff.

Pros: Black beans and rice. Plantains and plenty of fruit. Every sever was enthusiastic about there job.

Cons: No refrigerator no ice in room. Would also like a small microwave.

Pros: The breakfast was good with a nice selection. The carrot cake was excellent. My view of the overall facility was favorable for the areas I visited.

Cons: Internet was spoty at my room. Also the ceiling fan was a little nosey maybe its getting time for maintenance.

Pros: The view was fantastic and the monkeys were fun to watch.

Pros: The free breakfast was perfect to fuel us for our daily hikes and excursions. It usually consisted of eggs, sausage, fruit, cheese, plantains, cereals, yogurt, and different types of pastry/bread items. Coffee, juices, water, and hot tea were also available. The observation deck located right outside of the restaurant offers amazing views of the volcano and many different types of birds. We were able to observe both spider and Capuchin monkeys swinging in the trees right from our patio which faced the forest. The free morning hike to the waterfall is a must-do! A visit to the frog pond at night is incredible, though you must bring a flashlight and watch for snakes. All of the staff members are helpful and pleasant, and the souveniers are 1/2 what you'd pay for in La Fortuna,

Cons: Nothing--this was my 3rd summer in a row staying at AOL, and I continue to visit for the reasons mentioned above.

Pros: The trails in the hotel are good! They allowed us to explore, to be adventures and to see different wild animals. The spa was also very good. Margiri made us to feel relaxed. Happy hour was priceless! It was a very good hotel indeed.

Cons: We missed the TV but it was ok to take a break from the outside world.

Pros: Location, amenities, staff

Cons: No WiFi in rooms... only I’m common areas

Pros: the breakfast was great, the coffee excellent, assorted fruits and fruit drinks, fresh rolls, yogurt-great assortment of food

Cons: A little bit off the beaten track, but the view of the volcano is amazing!

Cons: Good needs work

Pros: Great location as well as great staff. Very friendly. Beautiful grounds.

Cons: Can’t think of a thing

Pros: Perfect place, friendly staff, in the heart of nature and great view to the volcano:)

Cons: I loved it and no complaining at all

Pros: Great location!

Pros: Amazing view from the room, delicious breakfast

Cons: The bed was uncomfortable, we had a leak in the room the first night, as well as a huge spider roaming around (we realize this is the tropical forest, but that didn't occur in our other stays). Facilities looked ok but we didn't or (no one else we saw) use it. For us it was just probably not necessary, and we should have tried to go for a cheaper place, but to be honest it's probably similar everywhere in La Fortuna, which is a real tourist trap.

Pros: This is a gorgeous place to stay and the staff is extraordinary. Beautiful flowers, animals, views and the food was excellent.

Pros: The property was lush with wildlife and beautiful plants and the views of Arenal were beautiful! The staff was so friendly and very responsive to anything we needed. The breakfast each morning was delicious and the onsite restaurant was great! Our kids loved the swim-up bar and pool.

Cons: Nothing!

Pros: The location is amazing, food is delicious and the spa it's awesome

Cons: It was difficult to get to without a car. By that i mean, a shuttle from la fortuna to the hotel would be great.

Pros: Excellent service and beautiful rooms with beautiful views. The welcoming was amazing, the grounds were beautiful, the pools were amazing and all the staff were extremely polite and helpful.

Cons: A little far from the main town of La Fortuna, but we didn’t have a car.

Pros: The Rooms: the renovated rooms are top notch in terms of comfort and views (Volcano). Rooms offer a de-humidifier to keep indoor humidity at manageable levels. Love the porch jacuzzi The property: many things to do even on the property—pool and hikes! The people: helpful and friendly.

Cons: Location has advantages and disadvantages—it is near attractions (Hanging Bridges and National Park) but a bit away from the commercial center (La Fortuna).

Pros: The place was amazing, bedrooms, garden, restaurant etc. Beautiful buildings in bamboo and gorgeus plants everywhere.

Cons: It took a long time to warm up the sauna.

Pros: Beautiful property. Loved the view and all the room amenities. Very quiet location. Beautiful pool and friendly staff. Would have stayed longer if we had the time

Cons: A lot of walking to the pool and restaurant.

Pros: Great little cabins set in the forest with trails and wildlife on the property, food was good and enjoyed waking up to the monkeys howling

Cons: Was really far out of town but that was to be expected if staying in the rainforest.

Pros: Location friendly staff and restaurant

Cons: Don’t book tours at the lodge but in la fortuna (when you have your own car)

Pros: The lodge preserves native vegetation for wildlife so there’s lots of opportunities to observe animals around the lodge. The birds were fantastic.

Pros: The gardens, the trails, the staff, the room! Great place to stay.

Cons: It was really far away and we didn't have a car so felt quite stranded. I would highly recommend this hotel if you have a car but not if you are depending on public transport as it costs a fortune to get to any restaurants or shops and an additional $30 added on to the cost of any trips just for transfers. If you have a car don't hesitate however! Perhaps the hotel could have a few things for sale at reception or offer a shuttle?

Pros: Loved the place. Excellent reserve with wonderful trails. Cabins were great with covered decks in the forest. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Cons: Rooms are horrible very poor

Pros: The restaurant's food was great!

Pros: Great staff, they took their time to get to know me and my friends. We stayed on a bangalô and had a awesome experience, waking up to the sound of nature every morning. Breakfast was simple and delicious, great drink options, food and etc...

Pros: location in the rainforest, hiking trail

Cons: Value for money was not as expected. For the price the amenities and conditions of the rooms was pretty basic. There is rustic, which is fine, but basic for the price paid was not as expected. Night staffing wasn't very receptive.

Pros: A very special hotel, located in a beautiful rainforest, which offers amazing hiking trails in the real jungle. The bed was comfortable and large. Very spacious room. There was hot water in the shower, which is not obvious in Costa Rica. Breakfast is very good. In the room there is a stunning view of the beauty of nature. Staying at the hotel offers an incredible natural experience in La Fortuna.

Cons: The room was not isolated from noise we could hear everything going on in the rooms next door. It was a bit tricky to take the suitcases to the room because the road from the parking lot to the room is a bit complicated for the suitcases.

Pros: The staff was exceptionally helpful and accommodating!! It was very cute and a close, short walk to town!

Pros: I left some usd in the safe and the hotel staff were soooo nice to inform me and help me arrange to send that back to San Jose

Pros: The room is large and spacious, was clean and well decorated. The bed was very comfortable. Free parking & Beautiful garden The staff was amazing, pleasant and welcoming. Helped us with everything we needed. Took care of every request, even a vegan breakfast. We left with a very good taste after staying there and we are hoping to return. To sum up this hotel is excellent and highly recommended!

Cons: The water in the shower was lukewarm, which turned out to be a problem in Costa Rica later on, with locals claiming that the weather is hot and no hot water is needed. At breakfast there is a menu from which you must choose one dish. If you want more, you'll have to pay extra money.

Pros: Shower was big and had hard beam with warm water. Beds were really nice.and pool was lovely not big but nice. Personal was also very kind!

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: The breakfast and the staff were very nice!

Cons: The rooms are far from the gardens, so you don’t get to enjoy the nature. The bathroom is very small!

Pros: The staff gave us great tips of trips and thermal spa. Also the breakfast staff are been very nice. Garden with beautiful pool and many colorful birds around.

Cons: Nothing...

Pros: The staff was amazing! We arrived very late (after midnight) due to flight delays and Heriberto waited for us. Melany and Sonia were very sweet and helped arrange our activities, ensuring we get a good price. They called our taxis and shuttles, and always greeted us with a smile. Location is located off beaten road but very close to downtown and restaurants.

Cons: There were very small ant like bugs around the sink and around the windows. They were harmless but we ended up taking some of them in our suitcase on our clothes.

Pros: This place was fantastic. We stayed there for 2 days. Clean room with AC. Delicious breakfast, super nice people! Great value too!

Pros: The staff was very helpful and kind. Location is fine.

Cons: We had some heavy rains and it starter to leak a little bit. Nothing to worry about though. WiFi was not working in the last cabina.

Pros: The breakfast was delicious and the staff was friendly and accommodating. The rooms are cute :)

Pros: Location is great, breakfast included, place is adorable!!

Pros: Nice showers. The wifi is better than most places weve been.

Cons: Room lighting was difficult to operate in. Breakfast was poor with little choice either. The roof is metal - we had big amounts of rain while there which kept us both awake as it sounded like continuous thunder. There are cockerel next door, so when the rain stops, you will be woken again. Nobody present when we arrived so we were stuck outside for some time.

Pros: David and his family were great hosts. The hotel is well maintained. The rooms are clean and the pool is serviced regularly. It's a good location, about 1 mi out of the city center, but with multiple restaurants and a super market nearby. The Red Frog Coffee shop (little yellow building next door) is a great place; try the empanada. They also offer use of a communal kitchen that has the necessary cooking tools. David can also help you book taxis, tours and transfers.

Pros: They had great service and they had everything clean. They were friendly and exceeded our expectations. I would recommend this spot to everyone.

Pros: Good breakfast options and the pool was really nice. Everyone on staff was really friendly and helpful. The casa was perfect for us - two rooms and the kitchen was exactly what we needed.

Pros: Gabby, the owner was great, very friendly and always helpful. the 2 cafes in the front were excellent and we ate there everyday. It's an easy walk to the beach and restaurants. Bank with ATM is across the street. So, all in all, very convenient and good value for the money.

Cons: there is a club on the other side of the the street that played very loud music on friday and saturday until at least 3pm. Sounded like it was in the hotel! Not good!

Pros: Excellent!

Cons: Mother Nature did not cooperate. It was raining all the time!!!

Pros: We were able to check in a little early and were greeted by the very friendly and helpful chap on reception. Breakfast was really nice and the free bike hire was a bonus. The red frog restaurant next door is also highly recommended for food!

Pros: Hotel Bijagua is a sweet little spot on the outskirts of La Fortuna. It was a perfect place to land after a long travel day. Breakfast and coffee were delicious. The pool was a great spot to rest in between adventures. Hotel Bijagua is safe, clean and I would recommend it for anyone.

Pros: Good location outside of town but La Fortuna was a cheap taxi ride or walking distance away if you don't have mobility issues. The room was clean and there was good quality bed linen. Breakfast was great. There were some things which I didn't want to eat and the staff were willing to be flexible with my choices. The staff also had some great advice about the trips/tours which I could fit in and were incredibly helpful with booking them.

Cons: There were a few families with kids during my stay, which made it difficult to relax in and enjoy the pool. But that isn't the hotel's fault I suppose. If you are booking during school holidays in USA, Europe and Canada bear this in mind.

Pros: Nice apartment close to town.

Pros: Scenery, quiet and clean

Cons: Nothing
