The room had a smell that wasn’t great. But appeared exceptionally clean! The resort is very big and we unfortunately got put at the farthest unit from all the activity areas…but with that said. The staff was amazing, food was fantastic! And the swim up bar and thermals where awesome

Arvindkumar, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The people, except at check-in desk, were incredibly friendly, polite and professional. The food was excellent and the bartenders were amazing. The room was small, the TV very small. I could not access an electrical outlet anywhere near the bed. The mattress was firm and comfortable and everything was clean throughout.
Kenneth, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Loved the hot springs on site. Friendly staff and excellent location. My only complaint is the mattresses definitely need to be updated. But, for the price, this was an excellent stay, I would book again.
Stacey, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Everything was great, the room, the breakfast and the customer service. The only feedback I have, is that pillows were not comfortable. I came with neck pain and my husband too.
Milena, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

the location is perfect but the property is little old and bathrooms need an upgrade and will not recommend for people who are looking for 4 review.
prithvider, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Food was not the best, plus the thermal water pool looked green and murky. It didn’t looked like the other thermal waters around the area. The room was nice but some how not well maintained. I found a spider web around the light next to the bed and bathroom mirror was little dirty on the first day. After that, the lady who cleaned the room did a great job on cleaning the room. The whole facility is beautiful.

Cottage style rooms are very nice. Breakfast is good with many choices. Bathrooms are a bit let down.

Great property in the La Fortuna area! Incredible views of Arenal Volcano, and the staff were EXCELLENT!
Craig, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Pros are they have hot springs in the property with a beautiful view of the Arenal volcano in all rooms. Property is well maintained with beautiful landscape and tropical plants. They have a wet bar, swimming pool and good dining options. Breakfast buffet is good. Cons are the rooms are old and dated and need better lighting and felt a little cramped for space. Suggest looking for a villa if you are traveling with a large family
Chandramouli, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Arrived Wi to family members one relative got keys immediately upon check in, I had to wait 3 hours to get keys. Property landscape is beautiful and well maintain. Rooms outdated. No plugs for phones , could not find light switch . Bed made noises when you move. Tiles in bathroom patch not good .hot springs not hot enough.

One stop shop for relaxing in the rainforest!

We love to relax at this resort. If you want to just lounge around in the rainforest, this is a great place to do it. The cabins are modest, but the facilities are a little more updated. This resort has everything you need so you don't have to leave if you don't want to. The massages at the spa are amazing. There is a zip lining adventure right in the resort if you want. And the food is great too. Our favorite thing to do is to soak in the mineral pool with the swim up bar for a cocktail and bird watch while getting glimpses of the Volcan Arenal from time to time.
Gary, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The grounds and views of the volcano were amazing. The villa was spacious and comfortable. We did have a leak after heavy rains and reported it but never heard back. A TV viewable from the couch would be nice and lower priced food options in the snack bar would be good. The hot springs were relaxing. Beautiful property.
DELYSE, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

There were few people in the check in and restaurant; so we have to wait a little bit longer. The hotel is very beautiful and nice view of the volcano.
Juan, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Beautiful hotel with an amazing view of the volcano. Property is beautiful l, well maintained. Really liked the different hot spring pools with different temperatures. The wet bar was pretty nice. Liked better the breakfast than the lunch but very good food in general. Room looked old, specially the bathroom. They would need to take care of that. Overall a very nice hotel with friendly staff, good amenities, beautiful infrastructure and a great view of the volcano.
