Family stay in nature
Fabulous place in gorgeous nature. The cabins are very fun and feel private with all the vegetation around. We had excellent service from the staff, and a great, rainy night tour on the property from Carina. Very quick walk to mini market and restaurants but off the main drag so it’s nice and quiet

This property is nothing short of spectacular! It is a family run business and the genuinely care about you having your best visit to Costa Rica! The property is beautifully kept and the staff are super friendly. In my opinion if you don't stay here... you might regret it. We are world travellers and this place is one of the most memorable.

Such a lovely place. There is a trail behind the property where you can watch the frogs. Chocolate tour is a walking distance. We booked a few tours with the property which we greatly enjoyed. We’d love to come back one day

Great property and amazing staff. Bathroom needs renovation. Close to downtown, easy to be picked up for excursions and Uber, quiet.

10/10 Exceptional

The property itself is very beautiful, especially the trail nearby. However, there are definitely insects that can be found in the room as one may expect being at an eco-lodge. Bathrooms need to be renovated. Uber drivers are around and you are between 5 to 10 minutes to downtown La Fortuna
