"The staff here is absolutely fantastic! Even though our trip started a bit bumpy, they totally turned it around and made us feel so welcome and at home. Their hospitality was beyond amazing, and they were super accommodating to everything we needed. We're definitely coming back when we're in the La Fortuna area! They even helped us plan activities and surprised my sister for her birthday, which was so sweet! Big shout-out to Alejandro, Jimmy, Carlos, and Victor! Pura Vida !"

Top Cedral Hotel Reviews

Arenal Manoa & Hot Springs Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful Property close to the volcano and town center."

Hotel Secreto La Fortuna

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved our stay at Hotel Secreto in La Fortuna! The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, the breakfast was wonderful, and the rooms were beautiful. The grounds are gorgeous, with perfectly manicured lawns and lush greenery. One of the highlights was seeing sloths hanging out in the trees in the morning! The location is fantastic, close to everything but still peaceful and relaxing. The only small downside is that the walls are a little thin, so you can hear your neighbours at times. But honestly, that wouldn’t stop us from staying here again. Such a lovely little hotel! We would absolutely recommend it!"

Hotel Lomas del Volcán

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was incredible, the food was good, and the tours were amazing"

Hotel Boutique Casa Del Rio

10/10 Excellent

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A TRUE HIDDEN GEM IN LA FORTUNA, COSTA RICA! Casa del Río is one of those places that completely took us by surprise. When you first arrive, it is so unassuming that you truly have no idea what is waiting on the other side. But once those great big gates open—WOW! You enter what feels like a hidden tropical paradise tucked away in La Fortuna. The grounds are absolutely breathtaking—lush, beautifully maintained, and surrounded by the sights and sounds of Costa Rica. There are multiple pools, including a waterslide, making it wonderful for both couples and families. We also loved that the property is pet-friendly and family-friendly. One of the things that makes Casa del Río so special is its setting along the beautiful La Fortuna River. Being able to dine beside the river adds another wonderful element to the experience, and Cuenca Restaurante offers beautiful views of Arenal Volcano. Our accommodations were beautiful and comfortable, and having our own private Jacuzzi made the experience even more relaxing. There was something magical about sitting in the Jacuzzi surrounded by the rainforest, especially when the Costa Rican rain began to fall. The entire property has such a peaceful, sanctuary-like atmosphere, and the warm hospitality made our stay even more memorable. We honestly wished we had stayed longer. Casa del Río truly feels like a hidden tropical paradise, and it is a place we would absolutely return to."

"My husband and I stayed at Chachagua rainforest for 5 nights last week; Master Bungalow. The tree houses were sold out ☹️. Such a beautiful, peaceful, safe, and breathtaking resort . The scenery is gorgeous: hot springs, rivers, trees, flowers. Daily housekeeping: linens, towels, bathrobes are replaced by fresh and clean ones. Wonderful staff who payed close attention to our needs: Maria❤️🌸, Enersto, Ericka , Nathalie , Kimberly, Roberto, Gretchen , Emma , Karen. ( sorry I forgot some names). Staff of Thermo et Colibri restaurants; tour guy, the spa’s ladies; thank you💕. Driver Norman; thank you for driving us from Chachagua to Guanacaste safely. Thank you to the wonderful staff of Chachagua Rainforest resort for making our stay so memorable and unforgettable❤️."
