“Perfect location from which to see the best of La Fortuna!”
Lovely comfy cabanas with good facilities. Host was amazing. He helped us with great advice on local tours and also did a fantastic night walk around the gardens, where we saw many different types of frog species. Staff were very helpful - highly recommend.

“Great stay near La Fortuna”
Breakfast was the best we've had during our 2 week travels and cost of it was reasonable. Great coffee and variety from day to day with pancakes, eggs or omelet and fruit and veggies, fresh juice. The hosts were very kind and welcoming, and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was pleasant. We really enjoyed the night tour, kids loved spotting all the different frogs, that was such a nice little bonus to our stay. We also saw a monkey and a toucan, the host helped view them thru his scope. Beds were very comfortable and the place had everything we needed for our stay. The pool was lovely and perfect for cooling down in the afternoons and we liked the forest and little trail in the back for exploring.

“We would definitely recommend staying here. It’s not fancy but it is perfect for a family with 3 good size double beds.”
The location was great (short drive from La Fortuna and the waterfall and walking distance to La Salta rope swing). Breakfast was also good and the staff were super friendly. We enjoyed the frog garden and the night tour. We saw a free red-eyed tree frogs on the night walk and loads of poison dart frogs exploring the garden one morning before our white water rafting. The kids enjoyed the pool and we saw several toucans in the big tree at the back.

Really well located for everything we wanted to do. Clean, spacious and lots of cooking equipment. Pool was lovely after a hot and sticky day and really enjoyed the complimentary night tour looking for frogs in the dark. A great experience.

“Lovely place to stay with a nature loving host.”
Absolutely lovely place to stay, spacious self catering bungalow with a warm pool and wonderful owner/manager. A lovely night walk in his jungle garden to search for (and find) frogs. A bird feeding station so you can enjoy them visiting whilst eating your excellent breakfast.

“Loved this place! Loved the staff!”
The cabañas were just great. Lots of space, very big beds. Clean. And such a friendly staff! Especially Mairene at the reception, but also the staff at breakfast. The breakfast was also very good! Good parking space next to our cabaña. We also did the night walk with Michelangelo. He took some great pictures of al the small night animals we encountered. By car close to the center of La fortuna where you have lots of shops and restaurants. I definitely recommend this place!

“The warmest welcome to Costa Rica”
The staff were all really friendly and happy to share their own personal recommendations for things to do in the area. The rooms were huge, great for us and two kids who are too old to share beds. The location is great. We did the frog tour on site and loved it!

“Charming family friendly accommodation with great staff”
The staff were thoughtful, flexible and facilitating. The breakfast was wonderful with the birds and creatures. The swimming pool was a great rainy day activity. The night tour was informative and we saw several frogs. The highlight of this property for us, was how friendly and helpful the staff were. Would recommend for families.

“it was nice enough that I came back.”
all 3 beds were wonderful. The appliances in the kitchen were fabulous - I mean who would expect a waffle iron. Everything was very clean and comfortable. I'd stayed there a year ago and it was a pleasant as before.

The apartment we had was very spacious and with a fully equipped kitchen, which is great if one doesn’t want to eat out all the time. The little garden in the back was a cute piece of nature and we had birds visiting during breakfast, which we enjoyed a lot. The pool was clean and nice.

“What a welcome to Costa Rica”
What an amazing place! It’s the owners and staff at Cabañas del Rio who make this place so special. We were welcomed and looked after very well and time spent answering our questions and talking to us about the birds, wildlife and day to day life in Costa Rica. We all (myself, husband and 2 children) loved spending time in the pool and breakfast was delicious every day. We didn’t have a car but were able to walk to town and nearby restaurants as well as using Uber to get around. We would return in a heartbeat and will definitely recommend to friends and family
