We loved our stay at Noah’s Forest. The property is beautiful. The food and employees at the restaurant were great and they had the most amazing orange ginger ice cream. We sat outside on our patio and listened to the noise of the forest every morning and every evening. The entire staff went out of their way to be friendly and helpful. They helped us with everywhere we wanted to go. We would highly recommend Noah’s Forest and we will definitely be staying there next year when we go back to the Arenal area.

This place is really sweet to stay at it’s about 5-10 minute drive from the center of La Fortuna you can definitely walk as well. It’s very convenient and the staff is so wonderful they will make anything happen for you so it’s just nice to feel welcomed and acknowledged. The surrounding area is quiet although it’s close to the center where’s there a lot of people you stay in an area that’s really quiet. The rooms themselves are beautiful as well. And very well kept this hotel does great upkeep on their property
