"PLUSES: Surroundings are gorgeous and lots of trails and things to do; full of birds for Birders, and various other animals. The staff was (mostly) professional, knowledgable and friendly. The grounds and rooms are very clean. The included breakfast is quite tasty with a variety of options. CONCERNS: The property is isolated, as it is 40 mins w/ no traffic or road issues to La Fortuna and other activities outside the property. Some may love this. Dinners were more of a 3/5. Something I overlooked is that there is no air-conditioning, though this is on me for not realizing. During the warmer "dry" season we would have preferred air-conditioning. PS: For all of the Arenal area (not just the Observatory) if driving from the West (say from Tamarindo beach area), once you hit Lake Arenal, it's about a 1 and 1/2 hour drive to the Observatory, and 2 hours+ to La Fortuna, and this is with no road issues and little traffic."

"Todo hermoso"

"Property is located just outside of the square in La Fortuna and gives “white lotus vibes”. We did go in their off season but felt like we had the property to ourselves. Loved being able to message on WhatsApp and immediately get a response. Breakfast each morning was great! Would recommend! "

"Loved this place everything top service "

"Una vista increíble y rodeado de naturaleza"

"Property was Amazing and Excellent View s Staff was great enjoyed the swim up pols. And hot springs water"

"Amazing location in the very heart of La Fortuna, but tucked away from the main drags. Easy walking distance to shops and restaurants. Very easy to book tours and passes through reception, even at the last minute & their prices were cheaper than on the tour websites!"

"Small but has everything you need! The location and the views to the Volcano were perfect!"

"Great things to say about the hotel! Phenomenal shuttle service (10/10), driver Mauricio was punctual/patient. Upon landing he was ready w/ a nice cool van & drink cooler. The 2.5 hr ride was long, but he offered stops for food, restrooms, etc. He was knowledgeable w/ lots of recommendations & my 10 y/o loved that he had WIFI avail. Beautiful hotel w/ cute rooms, friendly/helpful staff & many animals. Lives up to its name, like a peaceful jungle w/ no noise. There’s a big fun farm mins from the rooms (horses, pig, cows, birds & chickens), we got to pick eggs, milk cows & visit an amazing veggie garden. Suggestions: More space for belongings. An extra person joined last min, the hotel provided an extra bed, but it wasn’t comfy. Food was SUBPAR, not my favorite. Great bacon, chicken croissants & fruit at breakfast. AMAZING Hotsprings, didn’t have to leave the hotel & ordered drinks/food right from the bar. My daughter made friends at the pool & we took beautiful photos w/ the volcano right behind us at the hotel. They called us a taxi to “El centro” for a good food/souvenir selection & it was easy to find one back ($10). Tried "Don Rufino" restaurant (good service/food/prices). We also shuttled from La Fortuna to Samara beach. The 4 hrs went quicker than expected & Mauricio was the best, stopping for great scenery/animals (monkeys, etc) & we felt very safe. The hotel’s convenient for each excursion (horseback riding, zip-lining). I would definitely come back! "
