My family loved at our stay at Casa Del Rio. Everything was very clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. Only complaint was the water slide was not running while we were there, but we loved our private hot tub on our patio! Would definitely stay again.

Staff were attentive to any questions or issues we had and were there right away. We arrived in the dark and were told we would get a tour of the property the next day but never received that. We toured ourselves and the property is quite pretty, some construction happening while there. The restaurant was okay.. we had better food off the resort. The resort itself is gated which made it feel very safe and the rooms are very private which was nice!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Hotel property and grounds are quiet, secure and beautiful. Our room (Barracuda) is a very large two bedroom with plenty of space right above the river. Enjoyed morning and evenings on the patio with the river roaring in the background. Delicious daily breakfast included made for an easy start to each day. Great proximity to La Fortuna town and activities.

Really lovely hotel! The room was spacious, the property was beautiful and green, very close to the river. The staff was very friendly and the restaurant was fantastic. We stayed there for 3 nights and really enjoyed the breakfast and dinner. The restaurant staff was very helpful and gracious. Shout out to Summer from the restaurant who was very kind and friendly and provided excellent service and menu suggestions!

Wonderful experience! From the front desk staff to the incredibly attentive restaurant staff, the hospitality was wonderful. Pros: beautiful property and rooms, helpful and friendly staff, good food and plenty of areas to explore. Truly, the property is absolutely gorgeous and blows any negative out of the water. Cons: lack of gym, numerous construction projects going on in multiple locations around the property (which did not impact our stay with excessive noise, but it did make the gym and several walking paths off-limits), and our specific room (“Gallo” - perfect arrangement for our family of 4!) was situated directly below the restaurant, so we woke up every morning to cheerful families starting breakfast right at 6 am. All in all, these didn’t outweigh the amazing time we had and wonderful employees we encountered. Would definitely stay again! Pura vida! ❤️

This place is amazing! The water slide and all the pools are incredible! The landscaping is a classy beautiful tropical garden and it lent privacy to the rooms. There is a huge gate when you enter and it will make you feel safe, taking away the unknown risks of traveling. All staff were warm and friendly. Johstyn and Maria were very helpful and answered so many questions gracefully. The staff at the restaurant are great too. Don’t pass on the shrimp ceviche at the restaurant, it has a perfect spicy citrus flavor, unlike the others that we’ve had that are too sweet. Wish we found this place earlier so that we can stay longer.
