Great older resort located on the outskirts of La Fortuna. Needs some upkeep on the roofs and some of the siding, we could see outside through the cracks in our closet. But, great pool, hot springs, dining on site.

Excellent location, wonderful amenities and lovely staff. We went there with our 5 year old kids and had a wonderful time. The rooms are very well equipped and accompanied with a porch that has wonderful views. I only wish they had microwave in the rooms but the staff was kind to get our milk heated for the kids. Loved the place and will certainly be our go to spot when we visit La Fortuna again.

We really enjoyed our stay at this resort and wish we could have stayed longer. We traveled as a family with a pre-teen. They had everything we needed on site. The room was quiet and clean with a great view. We enjoyed the hot springs and wet bar and "snack" restaurant's wood fired pizza. Breakfast was a highlight with delicious hot food and fresh fruit.
