"We stayed 7 nights in Junior Suites with sea views and private hot tubs on the balcony (we had separate rooms). We’ll remember this stay for a long time. The rooms are essentially as described: clean, well serviced daily, comfortable bed, fresh towels/robes, plenty of amenities, and a well-stocked mini fridge. The hot tub was a highlight (it takes a while to fill, but it’s amazing once it’s going). A quick, honest note: it comes across as “luxury,” but I’d call it a high-quality boutique stay that’s slightly unrefined around the edges. A couple of design quirks: the open shower can spray water onto the floor, and my friend’s toilet door was a saloon-style door. My AC dripped and got noisy one night, but the team seemed to spot and fix it without me even reporting it — no issues after. The setting is incredible for wildlife: white-faced monkeys crossed our balconies most days, with toucans and macaws flying past. The pool is excellent (and deep), the loungers are comfortable, and the adults-only option is a plus. Staff were the standout — genuinely kind and helpful. Breakfast was good and varied daily; restaurant food was solid and reasonably priced. They also booked tours at fair prices. Bonus: There’s a complimentary golf buggy shuttle around the local area, which made getting around much easier."

"Beautiful resort to spend time with family. Vegetarian dinner options were limited at La Casa restaurant and kind of expensive (nevertheless, you have a lot of restaurants outside at La Fortuna, but everything else in the resort was very nice and awesome! Staff were very friendly, rooms were clean, resort is clean, pools, hot springs were great! Excellent resort!! FIVE STARS! We went in December 2025!"

"What an amazing vacation we had. After 5 days most of the staff had become good friends. It was sad to say goodbye to them. The location is stunning too with 180 degree views of 2 beaches. Outside our room we had a monkey highway as each morning 10 monkeys would walk across the vines outside our room. The wildlife are real happy there as we saw sloths, friendly lizards and lots of monkeys. And last but not least, the food was amazing at both restaurants. We cant wait to return!"
