An excellent experience. It's a very peaceful and quiet place, ideal for relaxing and disconnecting from stress. The rooms are beautiful, modern, very clean and comfortable, with decor that makes the stay very pleasant. Without a doubt, a place I would recommend to those seeking peace, comfort, and quality service. I would stay here again!
Excellent service from the moment you arrive until you leave. The rooms are practically luxurious and incredibly comfortable for relaxing after a day of work or while exploring the area.
Located in a strategic spot, with well-maintained facilities and beautiful, comfortable rooms. 100% recommended. The rooms have a refrigerator, microwave, and coffee maker, plus a balcony with a beautiful view—perfect for relaxing after a long day with a good cup of coffee!
Perfect for our needs. Friendly staff who responded quickly. You can make yourself a coffee. Lovely balcony with a view of the greenery and a place to dry your bikini and other clothes. About 30-40 minutes from La Fortuna, but no problem with a rental car. The hotel's restaurant recommendations were good.
Best accommodation we stayed in. Hosts are very nice, location is perfect if you are not into staying in the La Fortuna “disneyland”. It’s only a 20-30 min ride to the Arenal volcano. Everything is so calm and there are perfect cafes and restaurants nearby.
