Great value! Exceptional staff! Area is really beautiful. Great breakfast (buffet style), dinner option on spot. The pearl of the hotel is the hot springs (mineral water, pumped daily from 350m deep). Much nicer (and warmer) than the warm river options around. I will definitely stay here again, if returning to Arenal area.

The staff at Hotel Kokoro were pleasant, and accommodating. When we had a tour departing before breakfast opened they made 3 to go bags for us to take the next morning. If you’re looking for a quiet place that’s on the pick up list for day tours and not in the middle of the tourist area, Kokoro is great.

Amazing experience for half the price of resorts
This place was INCREDIBLE. The views were stunning and there is a 15 minute walking trail that makes you feel like youre in the middle of the jungle. Staff was very friendly and the food at the restaurant delicious. The mineral pools were only have full but it was nice and were included in the stay. Id skip the more expensive resorts and go here for a quaint but still top teir cabin lodging experience.

Beautiful grounds, clean and great food. Staff was very friendly. Great communication. Stayed late so we could check in (due to a six hour flight delay). Room was comfortable with a great view of the volcano! Easy to find and close to all the attractions in La Fortuna. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Kokoro is a serene and beautiful place to stay, a great hub for enjoying the outdoor adventures of Fortuna. The property has natural hot springs, a lovely pool, and refreshing outdoor dining area. The rooms are spacious and comfortable; only the lighting could be better. The staff are so kind and helpful! The location is just outside the hubub of the town, yet convenient to all you could want to do. We highly recommend Kokoro if you are in the Fortuna area!

Beautiful and well maintained grounds. The complimentary full breakfast buffet offered a variety of choices and was delicious. The mineral hot springs were very relaxing. Spacious cabin like rooms. Great view of Arenal Volcano. Close to downtown La Fortuna. I would highly recommend Kokoro.

my best sloth sighting :)
We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Kokoro - great view of the volcano and there was a hot spring too although not sure why on second day the water was very low and stagnant. Breakfast was good. Restaurant was only open for reservations so you need to plan ahead. The surprise.of our stay - there was a sloth in the trees by the pool!

Property is beautiful and lush but rustic and a bit run down in the rooms. Our room’s shower leaked profusely water all over floor, cracked tiles, bugs everywhere. There was only 2 outlets that could support a phone charger and laptop. Overpriced for the condition. But grounds were pretty and lush.
