"The staff was all around fantastic and hospitable. The place was as clean as could be. I did not like finding clean towels sitting on top of dead bugs. The garden, pool, and small trail were absolutely gorgeous!!!! It was a nice view to wake up to."

"My partner and I booked this property however when we arrived at 7pm, there was a large gate blocking the entrance and no one was there. We tried and tried to call and message the property and never received a response. La Fortuna is somewhat out in the country without many on the spot lodging options. It took us until 945 pm before we were able to get a far from desirable accommodations. We were preparing to sleep in our car by that time. We have yet to receive a refund or response. There...

"Fabulous experience. if you want the wild/lodge experience but still a staffed hotel with a bunch of services then this is for you! We were in the middle of the wilderness, with birds and sloths on site, but still had room service/clean up and buffet style breakfast and a pool! Absolutely recommend. good distance to all the sites/activity but far enough from the tourist trap that is la fortuna!"

"Loved the vibe of this place at night!! We got there late afternoon, nice and cool on the mountain side, chilled outside while it was raining and enjoyed the sunset and atmosphere of the place! I'd definitely stay here again!"

"We had such a lovely stay at Nuaku! The hotel is tucked away in the middle of a beautiful, lush jungle, surrounded by wildlife, greenery, and all the wonderful sounds of nature. The property felt very peaceful, clean, and safe, and throughout our stay we genuinely felt at home.
The staff made our experience especially memorable. Francisco, the manager, was incredibly kind, welcoming, and hospitable. He was always willing to help and made sure we were comfortable throughout our stay. We truly...

"What can I say about the Tabacon except OMG! 3 things that stood out were the customer service, the impeccable coordination of the facilities, and of course the exquisite thermal spa. Ton checking in a golf cart takes you from the lobby to your room. Everything is accessible via the electronic bracelets that are provided at check in (this serves as your room key, gym access, (the gym is very clean), and allows you to charge things to the room such as gift shop purchases, meals, poolside service etc.)
The breakfast buffet is available for a fee ; we got lucky to see the toucans each day high above the trees
And the highlight of course was the magnificent thermal springs. It is normal to walk out of your room with your bathing suit on, and with a bathrobe over it (the one provided in the room) and saunter over to the lobby. The shuttle comes by every 5 mins; when you arrive at the springs, simply go to the towel dispensary and also get a locker key. And then off you go - exploring spring after spring. Some are cold (eg the hexagon pool), and others are warm; some have water falls and others are serene. One note is that the pools have different flooring (with some that are paved, and others that are a little rocky and mossy) - so tread cautiously till you figure your way around.
Exclusive to hotel guests is the upper most secluded area called Shangri La comprising several pools and cabana side service. The whole experience is remarkable, unforgettable and restorative."
"El hotel le doy 10 estrellas, una limpieza absoluta, el trato de los trabajadores fenomenal te hacían sentir en familia, la comida todo exquisito, las habitaciones había de todo, los alrededores muy acogedor, el paisaje hermoso, sin duda lo super recomiendo quedamos mi familia y yo encantada, si algún día volviera a Costa rica me hospedaría sin duda ahí otra vez"
"Beautiful immaculate property. Great helpful staff, so many hot springs and pools, with really fun monkey slide. Enjoyed onsite activities like tubing, rock climbing, horseback riding (through the river was wild). And love the free laundry we can use. Food is pretty good too. Highly recommend!"
"The Lost Iguana was a highlight of our trip to Costa Rica. The staff was helpful and the breakfast was delicious. My kids enjoyed the pools and exploring the nature trail. We also enjoyed the feeling of seclusion and the ability to see cool plants and animlas on the property. Highly recommend! The only challenge is getting there...we don't recommend making your first drive to Lost Iguana in the dark."
"We had an incredible stay at Arenal Manoa! We stayed in one of the Chato Suites and the view of Arenal volcano from our patio was absolutely incredible. The private pool was super warm and incredibly relaxing after a long day of exploring Fortuna. The springs on property were great for that as well. The staff was helpful and visited our room twice daily for a clean and a turn down service. We always had enough towels for our family of four and even some extra sweets and fruit left by the staff. Couldn’t recommend Arenal Manoa enough!"
"Rooms were extremely nice and clean. Restaurant food and staff were awesome. Location and view were no douth the best in Costa Rica. 100% recommend this to my family and friends..."
