We had a fabulous room with a private thermal bath and a spectacular view of Arenal volcano. The dinners were fabulously gourmet ( though expensive). The pools were wonderful, staff helpful in booking excursions. It was a great place to stay. Lovely birds on the property, away from the noise and bustle of La Fortuna. I would definitely stay there again. Breakfast was a wonderful buffet.

Beautiful grounds, great location

We loved this place and after our stay were very surprised we didn’t see it recommended more. The grounds especially,well maintained the birds in the area were gorgeous and a highlight of breakfast a lovely pool to enjoy with hot springs either side of the pool which were fab. The pools were all open really late which meant we could enjoy a cocktail while the kids played in the pool after a busy day In the fab area. It’s located at the top of the road from downtown fortuna but we didn’t have a car and never struggled to get an Uber either down to the town or around to the main attraction like the volcano hikes or zipling etc. Staff at both the restaurant and front desk were both super welcoming and friendly. The only think if I was being picky is our room was a little dated looking, a bit dark and the shower was a bit of pain to use but overall we LOVED our stay here.

Perfect getaway

It’s an amazing property ! The best part of the place is the private thermal hot water in some of the rooms ! We had the best time ! We also loved the dense vegetation and the birds who nest in the property , truly a delight to see specially in mornings .. The restaurant is a little over priced and superbly slow specially in dinner time - I would recommend going to the restaurants outside the resort which are 10-15 min max and much. Cheaper and better food !

An excellent rain forest resort if you're looking for beautiful grounds with gardens, large thermal pool and Jacuzzi options, good variety of tasty restaurant options, full included breakfast buffet, pool, swim up bar by the Jacuzzi pools, jungle sauna, short perimeter hiking trail (too many roots for running), and friendly/helpful staff. Rooms are comfortable and adequate. A great getaway for couples, and good variety for families (including playground, pools, chill-out lounge with pool table, foosball etc). Would definitely return 👍
