The hotel is remarkable. The first thing I noticed was how incredibly friendly the staff were to hotel guests. I felt like I was special and valued as a guest from the moment I checked in..to when I left. Smiles, friendly attitudes and genuine, likeable people who stayed at the hotel really made a difference, IMO. Next, the Welcome Drink ticket we received was a first-timer for us and we couldn’t be happier. The server who made us that drink is 10/10! I cannot remember her name, but she was kind, helpful and knew how to make an amazing fruity cocktail. From peaceful, relaxation in the hot tub to comfortable, cozy bedding, you had the perfect slumber combination. And what a treat to open your curtains and have those breathtaking views every single morning. Family, Friends, Solo Traveller visits are all welcome here. You will not regret booking with this property!

My family and my sister's family visited Hotel Magic Mountain for 3 days over Christmas. The amenities were good - clean and comfortable rooms though very dimly lit with poor hot water pressure. It rained a lot so we didn't take advantage of the outdoor pool much, but the hot tubs were a lot of fun. The sports bar above the restaurant has a fun outdoor seating area where we had dinner on Christmas Eve - service there was extremely slow - several other patrons were noticeably upset at the delay in getting their food. We would have eaten at the main restaurant, but they were charging $85 per person for Christmas Eve dinner. That may have been worth it if it had been a special dinner, but they were serving a basic buffet. It kind of set a bad tone for the rest of the trip for me because it felt like they were trying to gouge their guests.

We had a comfortable two night stay here. We enjoyed that it was on the edge of town. We loved the breakfast buffet. We did enjoy lunch by the pool one day and would recommend the enchiladas and fruit drinks. The pools were nice. It also seemed like the staff were busy making sure the property looked good; we saw people cleaning outside and someone painting. We would definitely stay here again!

Vacation with family. We stayed for 5 nights at the property. We have the Junior suite, balcony volcano view. The view was amazing. The staffs were very friendly and kind. The property is located in the center of everything, walk distance to town, convenient to all major attractions, pharmacy and urgent care is right next door if needed. We will stay again if we ever plan to visit La Fortuna again!
