"We stayed in a 3 bed 2 bath bungalow type rental at Bungalows Las Iguanas. The beds were comfy and the property was very clean. No trouble with bugs. We had a 19 year old and 24 year old with us and they loved the private outdoor pool and hot tub. This is a small family-owned business and they were all very friendly and welcoming. They offered a great free breakfast every morning and we could text them any time we had questions. Another plus, we saw a pair of slothes less than a mile from the...

"This resort is amazing and I wish I was back there now. We only stayed here 2 nights of our 8 night stay in Costa Rica, but it was our favorite. We have a family of 4 and we stayed in a deluxe treehouse which fit us nicely. The grounds are beautiful and walkable and the staff is friendly. We were able to see multiple sloths and plenty of other wildlife. One afternoon, my teenaged daughter accidently left her wallet (with cash) in the restaurant, but it was kept safe by the staff (Luis) until...

"This property is stunning. I’ve been to La Fortuna before but this blue me away. From the moment I stepped on the grounds to the moment I left the staff were so amazing. So sweet and kind and hardworking. They really care about customer satisfaction here. I had the prior year stayed at a 4 star resort called the Royal Corin, my experience there was horrible but I fell in love with the town. I came back and stayed here and what I experienced can’t be put in stars. It’s what you are looking for....

The room was really small but we weren’t there so it’s ok. There was no hot water in the shower. The family who owns it was REALLY nice and friendly.

"The place is beautiful and we felt safe while staying. I understand that no matter where you stay in Costa Rica there will be bugs and such staying with you. We felt the resort could have put more effort in maintaining that the doors to the room closed without gaps that allow bugs to get in so easily. There was a large gap under the entrance door and also a gap between the sliding doors. At night we had to keep the lights off to not attract the critters into our room. I woke up each morning to...

3.0 star property
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (723)
"The idea of this hotel is lovely- a tropical oasis with well planted gardens on the edge of the very busy town of La Fortuna, 5 mins walk to the main streets. The rooms are fine and spacious. The main problem is that the pool is tiny (more of a bath and crowded with children most of the day). If you don’t need a pool and want a base for exploring La Fortuna and the adventure activities in the region then the hotel is good. If relaxing by a pool is more your thing then this isn’t the place."

"Hotel was in a great location, a few minutes walk to the main area full of shops and restaurants. The property itself is great value for money, it has an older feel and room quite small but that did not bother us at all, we really felt comfortable staying there and loved the seating areas outside each room to relax in. A higher floor had chairs facing the volcano which was fabulous. Pool was brilliant and perfect temperature. Breakfast was lovely and plenty of choice. Tea and coffee available...
