Fortuna

We saw beautiful birds everywhere along with other wildlife. We considered the drive back to La Fortuna to be relatively easy, so did not mind that it was a little bit out of the way. Excellent breakfast and very accommodating and friendly staff. Highly recommend that horse trek here as well.

Great location only 5 minutes from La Fortuna waterfall. Rustic lodges in the rainforest, each having privacy from the others. Walking trails in back of lodges. Loved the high ceilings and the wood accents, the air conditioning, the coffee maker in the room, and the balcony with rocking chairs. We sat outside and watched birds upon our arrival. Shower was spacious. Breakfast was delicious. Host was very friendly and offered tours if we wanted them, including a night walk onsite.

The rainforest setting is so beautiful. The lodges are completely immersed. Dozens of birds can be heard. Three friendly dogs and 2 cats live on the property and come visit. We stayed in a 3 bedroom private lodge that had everything we needed to sleep comfortably and prepare food. The owner and staff are very responsive and help book tours and rides.

Beautiful location far from noises and roads. Really relaxing. An astonishing garden surrounds the lodges that are at the borders of the forest.

These lodges are amazing value! The location and views are excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful, providing us with a packed breakfast on our first morning as we were leaving early for ziplining. The next breakfast was freshly cooked with options to suit everyone. Our chalet was a little dated but really large, clean and well furnished.

The location set in the rainforest is so beautiful. While most of the route to the lodge is now paved, the last few kilometres is still on a gravel track. You feel that you are at one with nature. As a wildlife photographer I feel this is one of the best lodges to capture the amazing birds that visit the feeders Adolpho made us feel extremely welcome

Lovely little budget place, close to town but not too close so was still nice and quiet. Our kids loved the small pools and generally had them to themselves. Breakfast was easy and staff were friendly. Lodges were comfy - fridge was much appreciated. The site is very attractive and overlooks the sloth sanctuary - we saw many while sitting at the pool. Great view of the volcano.
