Absolutely beautiful

Arrived at 1pm and was greeted by an extremely friendly team, Allan sat with us and told us all about the hotel and offered some advice on local tours. First impressions 'Wow!' As our room wasn't yet ready we headed to the restaurant for lunch. A small, intimate style restaurant, maybe 15 covers, set amongst the most beautiful, lush, colourful and vibrant surroundings. I've reviewed the restaurant on a separate review, but I'll mention here that all of the food we are at the restaurant was so tasty, and we ate breakfast, lunch and dinner here most days / evenings. Breakfast had cereals, toast, pastries freely available and you could then chose one plate from the menu - photos attached. Our bungalow, number 2, was a river view room and had a king-size bed, a sofabed for our Daughter, coffee machine, fridge, safe, wardrobe, his and her sink, double rain head style shower and the highlight - a private hot tub. I'd messaged the hotel to say it was my Husbands 50th birthday trip and they put a card, and a bottle of cava in our room and made a cake display out of towels and flowers. My daughter loved the towel creations which were in our room each day, The grounds of the hotel are absolutely beautiful, stunning trees, plants, flowers , so much colour. Then there are the birds which vary in size and song but provided us with much entertainment during our stay. Then there was the sloth. We were so fortunate to see a Sloth in the hotel grounds every day.

This property is stunning. I’ve been to La Fortuna before but this blue me away. From the moment I stepped on the grounds to the moment I left the staff were so amazing. So sweet and kind and hardworking. They really care about customer satisfaction here. I had the prior year stayed at a 4 star resort called the Royal Corin, my experience there was horrible but I fell in love with the town. I came back and stayed here and what I experienced can’t be put in stars. It’s what you are looking for. If you’re looking for a sign, this is it. This is the Costa Rican experience you want and will never forget.

Uma experiência incrível e privativa numa região muito gostosa de Monteverde. A estrutura do quarto è impecável e todos os recursos foram maravilhosos. Disponibilizaram comidinhas no frigobar e também outras coisas mais.

The bungalows are gorgeous! You’re in a secluded, wooded area with beautiful landscaping and lights. The sloth trail is cute. The hot tub (private) was heaven and the staff are very friendly. Very private setting. The coconut (alcohol free) beverage upon arrival is delicious!! If we ever go back to the La Fortuna area we will definitely stay again!

What a great place to stay. It is very secluded and quiet. the rooms are big and clean, love the shower area with two rain showers and the window int he shower makes one think you are bathing outside. The beds and comfortable and the outside sitting area in great for a evening. The hot tub outside is very much needed after a long day of walking and exploring the near by town. it is within walking to all the shops and restaurant. We had a car but it is easily walkable. The breakfast is delicious, especially the Typical Costa Rica breakfast. Service for all staff surpassed out expectations. I will definitely be back soon!
