6/10 Good

Outdated rustic hotel
Very basic, rustic and outdated hotel. No adjoining walls in our unit and quiet. Hot water in the shower but not the sink. Poor value for money but not unusual in Costa Rica. Walkways poorly lit at night and slippery when wet. Had a great meal in the restaurant but breakfast was a bit disappointing. Plenty of birds around and also saw a venomous Coral snake by the open air restaurant. Pool area was popular with families. Can’t drive car up hill to unit, but staff brought luggage to/from rooms on electric golf carts. Room had good A/C, OK WiFi but was very dark at night. Light switches were inconveniently located and not many electric outlets ( typical in the time the hotel was built). Away from the noise and traffic of La Fortuna.

Don't eat at the restaurant!!!!
Our room was very clean and the pool was great. However, the tin roof on room 405 was extremely noisy. The rain and what ever was dropping from the trees made it vey hard to sleep. Also there were a lot of animals not too far away making a lot of noise. The restaurant is ok for breakfast if you are ok with birds eating the cereal before you get there. Evening meals....below sub par!!!!

The view at this resort was beautiful. The pool was a big hit with our family and ee werw able to get a taste of the wildlife (toucans, other birds). The rooms were beautiful, clean and spacious. The facility was well maintained. I'd recommend this resort for couples or for a family. A 15 min drive from the town center. Perfect if you have a vehicle.

Staff was very courteous. There were times when only one buggy was operating which made waiting times a bit long. Otherwise, everything else was good

8/10 Very good

Rooms are spacious and well kept. We stayed in the same room 12 years back and did not find any change in the furniture, bathrooms, and look and feel of the property.Considering we are vegetarian, dinner in the restaurant was not that great. Pool is small and could be crowded if there are lots of folks on the property.

Excellent Costa Rican experience
Vey private sprawling resort with gorgeous landscaping full of huge rainforest plants and bromeliads, plenty of space between bungalows. Great volcano view and fun pool bar. Excellent staff. Extra spacious rooms. Interior was a bit dated and not the comfiest beds. No mini fridge. Loved the private jungle view outdoor porch and Jacuzzi tub

4/10 Fair

Beautiful place, but deceptive practices.. they need customer service training. I made reservation changes in advance and they approved it but they still charged me for extra night even though I communicated ahead that it would not be needed. When arrived to the hotel they pretended like they never approved reservation changes….cost me extra night of stay and never upgraded us to VIP… as advertised
