Pura Vida!!! I absolutely loved my stay here. There was more than enough room for me and I am looking forward to coming back with my children for a stay. The entire grounds are beautiful and they have so many added value for you to truly take in and enjoy the beauty of Costa Rica. All the staff were so friendly and went above and beyond. The pools are so pretty and clean, hammocks, nice seating areas on the porch. I have no complaints. 12/10 recommend.

Wonderful location, not too far from downtown La Fortuna (about 10 min) but it’s far enough from the noise and traffic. Our family stayed for 3 nights and felt completely safe. But what makes this place a gem is the wonderful staff (Silvia, Nicole, and Ana). They made us felt welcome and treated like family. It’s a place I would definitely stay again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend!

The room was clean, the staff was great the property was beautiful with a lot of nature. Very close to downtown La Fortuna with lot of activities and a free rope swinging river El Salto. Close to many restaurants, grocery stores, fruit markets and a short drive to hot springs and a volcano. My favorite part was the river in the backyard where I swim and relax.Big yard space where my toddler run around, explore nature, took a walk on the trail and play on swings plus the balls in the yard. I would definitely stay here again.

I had everything I needed in a very nice, well kept setting. You need to bring your own coffee but you a have a coffee maker. The setting is very nice with a water stream in the backyard. My room looked at the water stream which was very nice. Communication was great. The price is reasonable and I felt it was a good quality/price report. Would stay here again!
