Best place in la Fortuna/Arenal
This is the best place to stay in la Fortuna/Arenal Just at the resort you have great views of Arenal, plus the fauna and animals are amazing. You have hot spring baths or relax in the pool. Breakfast is unbelievable everything you could want. Staff can arrange for any excursion you would like with pick up and drop off at reception area. They offer private hot tubs on patios of some rooms, which are nice to relax in after a day of trekking. This was my fourth stay here and as always there will be another soon.

The property is beautiful and it has everything you need. The only thing missing for us was bed side lamps. I had to get up and turn off the big lamp and there was no sitting in the bed with just a bed lamp. We always had to have the big light on. Very inconvenient when you try to relax at night before bed.

Very family friendly, my family enjoyed hot springs and pool a lot. Breakfast also had good options. It is well maintained and beautiful to take photos or walk around. Some unwanted visitors (spiders) were noticed once. Overall very good experience.

We had a wonderful stay. The hot springs were very relaxing after fun filled, active days. The restaurant had a variety of dishes to choose from. It was close to all our excursions in La Fortuna. The only problem was our air conditioner broke twice during our stay. They can to fix it right away.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property was extremely noisy. The rooms were paper thin. We had a person next door who was having a full-blown party. You could hear him from two doors down. Everyone in the building complained. The staff did nothing and I mean nothing but start problems with the people who complained. At one point they offered to refund me if I left, which I thought was crazy considering I had to catch a flight the next day. We even had a guy come on our patio and leer into our room and they did nothing about it. The guy at the front desk named Keylor was extremely unhelpful and rude and made a situation a lot worse than it had to be. I asked him for help, he did nothing. They didn't refund me for the last night even though this day was awful and would no way shape or form be considered a vacation. I did not feel like I was respected at this place. I also felt like the facilities were very dirty when I was in the hot springs. I always would get other people's sunscreen and body oils in my hair and on my body because they wouldn't clean themselves before they entered. The pool. Had a lot of cracking. The room was fine. We just didn't like the peeping Tom next door and that the resort did absolutely nothing to make right. We felt completely violated at this place. The place is cheap because you can literally hear absolutely every conversation and everything going on next door to you. The manager here does not care. Does not take any type of time to talk to customers. Worst resort

Good, albeit older property with dated bathrooms and dim lighting. On the positive side, they have a great location, attentive staff, good breakfast and hot springs on location. We found using the hot springs at night after long hikes during the day very convenient and relaxing! Lots of beautiful birds can be sighted on the property. Would recommend but don’t expect luxury!
