Everything at that place was perfect. Maybe somekind of night stand to leave your glasses-book with a little light would be a plus.

Our family of 5 had a wonderful stay at Cabanas Rio Escondido. The property is beautiful, and the pools were nice for relaxing in after a day exploring La Fortuna. Our family apartment had two balconies - one in front and one in back facing the river. Check-in and check out were easy, and we appreciated the recommendations for transportation and restaurants.

Very quiet little cabin, near all the activities and a few steps from the trails to the river. Being off season some of the amenities were out of service but we enjoyed the gardens and trails and the covered areas during the rain.

This was a quick in and out for us, just stayed so we would have time in La Fortuna and at Arenal. The home was minimal but just what we needed. The grounds were actually quite lovely, would have explored more if we had stayed longer. Check in and out was easy.

Good, but with a few changes, could be great

Good: the property is beautiful! The river sounds are soothing. The buildings are nicely designed and well maintained. The staff was friendly and helpful. It seems like it would be a lovely place to hold an event. Challenges: no hot water to the kitchen sink made us concerned for clean dishes. The wiring connections on the point of service heater on the shower head were a little alarming. Screens for the windows, a screen door for the back door would allow for enegy savings, when it is cool enough, while keeping the bugs and bats out. Also recommend keeping loft windows closed for that same reason. (The back porch bat were fun to watch outside but no one wants them in their room.) Doors need a bit Pland off the bottom to keep from scraping on the floors.

Our family of 5 enjoyed our 3 night stay here. The raging river so close to our balcony was impressive after a few days of heavy rain. Beds were comfortable, kitchen well equipped and we had plenty of space for 5. A couple of minor issues being advertised washer/dryer was actually a paid laundry service and pillow menu did not exist when requested although advertised.
