Nice staff, beautiful rooms with veranda close to a forest (nice to walk and see animals). Housekeeping could be improved (we had to ask to fill up soap and toilet paper twice though our room was cleaned before). Breakfast is too expensive for the small portions that you get.

Great location about 5 minutes from downtown la fortuna. Within walking distance is a mini market and a few restaurants. Very close to the la fortuna waterfall, salto rope swing, chocolate tours and so many other things! Grounds were beautiful, very quiet, great happy hour at the bar and river walk. Highly recommend for couples and families.

This property is so quiet and peaceful! It’s perfect for relaxation. We were taken care of so well by the staff and they were very accommodating! Kevin did a great job checking us in and showing us around. There is a fantastic restaurant that we ended up eating at 4 times just down the road, Chante Verde. Recommend reservations. The property isn’t in town but close enough to be picked up by tours and easy to get to town. There is a great river close by where we saw howler monkeys and other monkeys in the trees. We will definitely stay here again.

Nice hotel we enjoyed staying at the Rancho Cerro Azul. Your cabin is enclosed in a beautiful garden and you’ll be woken up by birds singing in the morning. Breakfast is good and abundant, restaurant not so much There is a nice trail down to the river and they arrange a night e walk in the property to see frogs and other nocturnal animals. It’s at walking distance from “El Salto” rope swing and at a couple of miles from the waterfall Very positive experience

We have just left Hotel Rancho Cerro Azul after four wonderful nights. It is a charming and tranquil setting for a small number of clean, comfortable lodges. The deck of our air-conditioned cabin was private and offered a wonderful view of wildlife. We spotted many birds during our stay. Breakfast was delicious and included fresh fruit and unlimited coffee. The laundry service was great and our hosts Kevin and Isaac were so warm, welcoming and helpful. We were a family of five, travelling with teenagers and we could not have been happier with our choice. We also ate at the restaurant for other meals a couple of times and the cooking was fresh with good service.

Amazing views of the ocean and surrounded by flora and fauna. The road was an adventure we loved and we also enjoyed the on site pool. It was hot but we were expecting that. Convenient to shopping & dining in Quepos and close to Manuel Antonio as well. Wonderful stay, thank you!

Everything was great however new prepared to have lizards inside the room and don't get panicked. Accept the nature and let them live their corners and if you're fine with this then this place is good.
