“cool place”
The staff was very friendly. They helped us with everything we needed. It was a very nice touch that they left their own homemade coffee in the room every day.

“Very good place to stay when visiting La Fortuna area”
The property was very comfortable, rooms were good and staff were very friendly and helpful. Good restaurant on site with an excellent range of meals. Parking onsite which was good. We enjoyed being away from the frenetic pace of La Fortuna and coming back to a very peaceful environment after our day.

“Beautiful stay in gorgeous surroundings!”
Absolutely beautiful surroundings - the photos really don’t do it justice. Amazing to be able to do a 30-40 min hike in the property. Property felt intimate and well designed. Breakfast was massive and really tasty! Lots of options. We ate dinner there 4 nights and really enjoyed the ‘casados’ (local dish) - really big portions. The staff are SO friendly. Diego took us on a lovely tour of the property on arrival, and Alejandro greeted us like old friends. I had a fabulous massage!

“A pleasant and relaxed place as a stop over whilst travelling round.”
Very relaxed, easy going place. So the "hot springs" hot tubs were secluded and nice to chill in for an hour, but not the warmest. Also the trail through the woods was nice, short, and the stream pools were great for a morning dip. The cabins were fine, as expected. The onsite staff were very kind, including advice and activities.

Beautiful property! Only there for 1 night but we had a fantastic experience. We did the night walk tour with Victor and got to see amazing wildlife. It was a highlight of the trip for my kids. Also saw a mama and baby sloth on the property. The grounds are stunning. Restaurant was really good too. We loved our bungalow with the hammocks. The hot springs were a bonus. Would definitely recommend this to others!

“Great stay at Arenal area”
Hotel location is “middle of nowhere” but that’s great because it’s not massive touristic and it’s literally in the middle of rain forest. The staff is very helpful and kind. They always tried to help or to answer any questions he had. Standard room bungalows has clean and had all necessary commodities. Pool is not deep but does its work. Was great for refreshing during rain forest and humidity. Springs are very nice. 6 pools with different water temperatures. 1st and 2 warmer were great. Very recommended hotel.
