Nice but construction
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.

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.

10/10 we loved our honeymoon here.
My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and we absolutely loved it! The staff was so friendly and kind. We loved our room and how it was surrounded by plants. We got to see sloths in the morning on our walk to the restaurant for breakfast. The breakfast was great as well. We also booked a couples massage and the receptionist helped us with it and got it booked. Overall we highly recommend to stay here

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).

Unforgettable stay at Noah’s Forest. Gorgeous location, super comfortable, and close to everything while offering the privacy and relaxed environment we were looking for. The service is incredible, and they truly go above and beyond to make your stay something special. Anna, Sol, and Allan offered the best experience for us; thank you so much for all the surprises and gestures. Special shout-out to Henry for all his attentiveness to our toddler at the restaurant. Highly recommend to anyone visiting La Fortuna, CR.

We had the best time staying at Noahs Forest. The staff were very freindly and helpful and always took the time to check on you. We loved the facilities especially the pool and ping pong tables, as well as the jacuzzi in the room. Everything was very clean and the best possible standard. Thank you for finding the sloths everyday, we'd never of managed without the helpfully positioned telescope and map! Special shout out to anna for organising the frog tour and always smiling with the best energy. Muchas Gracias!

The people at Noah’s forest were the nicest people we met they go out of their way to make sure everything is just perfect for you. We had the pleasure of making friends with a man who allowed us to look thru his telescope and see sloths and iguana sitting on the branches on the property you will be more than happy that you chose to stay at Noah’s forest

We had a wonderful stay at Noah’s Forest by Tifakara. It is a small and very intimate resort. The grounds are immaculate and all of the staff are helpful and friendly. We really appreciated the self serve coffee machines as well as the complementary breakfast. With its location only 10 minutes from town it makes for a perfect stay in La Fortuna.
