Arrived at 1pm and was greeted by an extremely friendly team, Allan sat with us and told us all about the hotel and offered some advice on local tours. First impressions 'Wow!' As our room wasn't yet ready we headed to the restaurant for lunch. A small, intimate style restaurant, maybe 15 covers, set amongst the most beautiful, lush, colourful and vibrant surroundings. I've reviewed the restaurant on a separate review, but I'll mention here that all of the food we are at the restaurant was so tasty, and we ate breakfast, lunch and dinner here most days / evenings. Breakfast had cereals, toast, pastries freely available and you could then chose one plate from the menu - photos attached. Our bungalow, number 2, was a river view room and had a king-size bed, a sofabed for our Daughter, coffee machine, fridge, safe, wardrobe, his and her sink, double rain head style shower and the highlight - a private hot tub. I'd messaged the hotel to say it was my Husbands 50th birthday trip and they put a card, and a bottle of cava in our room and made a cake display out of towels and flowers. My daughter loved the towel creations which were in our room each day, The grounds of the hotel are absolutely beautiful, stunning trees, plants, flowers , so much colour. Then there are the birds which vary in size and song but provided us with much entertainment during our stay. Then there was the sloth. We were so fortunate to see a Sloth in the hotel grounds every day.

Uma experiência incrível e privativa numa região muito gostosa de Monteverde. A estrutura do quarto è impecável e todos os recursos foram maravilhosos. Disponibilizaram comidinhas no frigobar e também outras coisas mais.

Very unique and beautiful property. The staff was wonderful from Sol at the reception and on the property jungle tour where we saw sloths and an owl and to Arlen and the fabulous staff at the restaurant. The breakfast and dinner were great. I would highly recommend.

Gorgeous property with a wonderful staff. Our garden view room was so peaceful and clean with all the amenities we needed. We wish we had time to extend our stay this was our favorite place in Costa Rica.

What a great place to stay. It is very secluded and quiet. the rooms are big and clean, love the shower area with two rain showers and the window int he shower makes one think you are bathing outside. The beds and comfortable and the outside sitting area in great for a evening. The hot tub outside is very much needed after a long day of walking and exploring the near by town. it is within walking to all the shops and restaurant. We had a car but it is easily walkable. The breakfast is delicious, especially the Typical Costa Rica breakfast. Service for all staff surpassed out expectations. I will definitely be back soon!

I am mixed on my review. Beautiful place, comfortable bed, nice room. But they were doing construction and it was noisy in the afternoon and early in the morning. I think they should have disclosed that. I went to relax and really couldn’t.

I had an incredible stay at Noah’s Forest, and I cannot recommend it highly enough! From the moment I arrived, the front desk staff—Allan, Sol, and Anna—went above and beyond to ensure I had a wonderful experience. They were welcoming, attentive, and accommodating in every way. I especially appreciated their kindness in allowing me to check out a bit late after my spa treatment ran over. I felt so bad about the delay, but they assured me it was no issue at all, which truly exemplified their exceptional hospitality. One of the most memorable parts of my stay was waking up to the soft sound of rain in the rainforest. It was so peaceful and serene—an experience that truly allowed me to disconnect and embrace the natural beauty of the surroundings. The restaurant at Noah’s Forest was another highlight of my stay. The food was absolutely delicious, with a wide variety of beautifully prepared dishes that exceeded my expectations. A special shout-out to Arlan and Adrian, who were phenomenal. Their kindness, warmth, and professionalism truly brought the “Pura Vida” spirit to life. They made every dining experience memorable, and their outstanding service added an extra layer of enjoyment to my trip. The live music in the evenings created the perfect ambiance, making for a truly special experience. Overall, Noah’s Forest provided an unforgettable experience with top-notch service, amazing food, and a team that genuinely cares about their gues

We had the best time at Noah's forest! The staff was so nice and the place was beautiful and tucked away in the jungle. I also highly recommend their night frog tour... we saw SO MANY frogs! Would have stayed longer if we could. Thank you!

Secluded property in La Fortuna. Each room was a free standing building, with its own hot tub. Shower was excellent. The included breakfast was excellent and coffee was available all day. So many activities in the area. Highly recommend if you are not looking for the hustle and bustle of a large hotel. Pool area was nice and there were added amenities such as a pool table

Excellent property! Would highly recommend and would stay here again in a heartbeat. The staff was tip notch helping point out the sloths in the tress around the property as well as accommodating us for a special night tour of their sister property because we were only there one night before we left to head back home. Would have loved to stay longer in this area and explore more that it has to offer.

Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. They helped set up telescopes so we could see the birds and sloths in the trees. Hot tub outside our room was a nice touch. Rooms were large and comfortable. Only downsides were there really isn’t a bar or place to have evening drinks. Also the cost of bottled water was ridiculous ($30 for two bottles of Fiji water).
