The place looked just as advertised, it was beautiful. The staff was amazing !!!! We were there on our honeymoon. We would definitely be back and would highly recommend it !!
Guadalupe, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very nice place to stay in La Fortuna, supermarket, restaurants in walking distance, friendly staff, beautiful rooms with direct view to the volcano, the breakfast is served in a place nearby where you have a very simple breakfast but you can observe the birds during your breakfast, worth to go
3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely place with amazing views of the volcano. Felt so peaceful and relaxing.
3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Our stay was wonderful although the restaurant is not onsite walking to the restaurant was just a few mins (2-3 mins) which was wonderful and made sense since the restaurant has a beautiful location where one can watch birds and take a walk for free, or pay for a tour and go watch other birds and have a tour guide walk you through the place. The retreat is nearby La For tuna and many food options which I highly recommend trying several Soda places which are where locals go to eat.

Overall Nice Experience

Nice hotel - they don’t clean unless you ask but close to town and overall good design and comfort. Breakfast is a bit down the road but not far.
Theresa, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Absolutely wonderful property that I almost want to keep secret… but I won’t. Lovely rooms, lovely views. Must book for couples or relaxation
Kristi, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

An absolutely beautiful property - views are stunning, rooms are wonderful. It’s a calm and tranquil vibe. Ideal for couples. Location is close to everything yet still secluded from the craziness of touristy downtown Fortuna. Can’t recommend enough!

10/10 Exceptional

Lush and clean inside the property. Loved the nearby outdoor breakfast... Dine with the jungle birds. Surprised that the Butterfly Dome was included too... Beautiful!
Dan, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very relaxing place! I enjoyed the private pool after the tours and loved taking a shower surrounded by the private garden. The rooms were clean and the host was very friendly.
Andres, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved our stay at Fortuna Retreat. Our room had a stunning view of the volcano. Property and room were very clean and well kept. Our breakfast was included at a nearby small restaurant in a lovely setting, just a short walk down the road. The property is a short drive from the main town and we enjoyed the peace and quiet.
