Puntarenas Cheap Vacations

The staff at the hotel were very friendly and kind. The hotel has a great location accessible to many of the tours and things to do at La Fortuna. Breakfast buffet was amazing!

Great breakfast-loved the fresh fruit. Rooms were amazingly comfortable and a great shower. The whole vibe was peaceful and relaxing. Just what we needed to recharge.

Best hotel in La Fortuna. I would rate my experience a 10 if I could. Do yourself a favor and book this hotel. The staff and service were

We had a fantastic stay loved the boat ride to the lodge, rooms were spacious, lovely big bathroom Balcony had a lovely swinging seat overlooking the river Breakfasts were fruit plus fish of your choice and was excellent Trails around the hotel were great to see frogs and birds We did a fantastic magical kayaking trip which is a must We visited national park to see turtles laying eggs, unfortunately she Borykng the hole before laying eggs but we did see the turtle going back to the sea and the hole shed dug, still a memorable experience A highlight were the iguanas lounging around the pool with us and the macaws hanging out in the trees

Room was clean and spacious, large bathroom, shuttle staff were very friendly. Had a great view from room and able to see lots of different wildlife - recommend watching sunset and night tour - was disappointed had to pay additional $20 to hike trail at the top of the hill. Breakfast buffet was ok - traditional Costa Rica breakfast options. Wish the pool bar was opened longer to have time to swim and relax after done with tourist attractions and supper

Very clean room. Staff is efficient and friendly. We had a great view into the cloud forest. Wish I could have stayed longer but definitely on the list if I rebook.

Property doesnt offer much more than just a pool and 1 restaurant. No other activities or shows. No area for kids to play. No night time activities. Property sits further away from all the restaurants and shops, so you would need to get an uber every time.

Fabulous stay in a wonderful location. The staff are truly top-notch. Attentive and friendly. Every request was answered with “Of course, with pleasure!”. Food was excellent. Morning coffee with steamed milk delivered to our room early morning so we could sip and watch the sunrise from our balcony. A variety of on-site tours are included. The guides are excellent. Special shout-out to Sandra for finding the small Red-eyed tree frogs during the night tour. Scarlet macaws flying all over the lodge, monkeys everywhere, all sorts of beautiful birds and interesting critters right outside your room. The grounds and views are beautiful. Hike to a waterfall within ten minutes. Pool is nice too. They will take you down to the secluded beach and set you up with chairs and cooler. The beach is beautiful but very rocky. We had the Matapalo suite. Very nice though close to the entrance and main road so the intermittent traffic noise was a minus. We had a small issue with a large wandering spider and then a bark scorpion getting into our bathroom (each just once) but they responded within 3-4 minutes both times. They installed a door sweep on the bathroom door within hours to prevent them entering the bedroom- very speedy response. The view was outstanding however. Overall Lapa Rios is an outstanding lodge with wonderful staff, and I cannot recommend it enough. Five stars.

We absolutely loved out stay at Senda Monteverde. The grounds are gorgeous and have access to a beautiful hiking trail just out the back. They have a new pool and hot tubs that made our experience even more relaxing. Their restaurant is delicious. We ended up eating there for multiple meals and were happy with our choices every time. The staff were all extremely helpful and kind. They are very thoughtful and helped us with any bookings we needed. We needed a ride to the airport at 2am and they easily arranged this for us and even had a to-go breakfast ready for us with the security guard at the front desk to take with us. We would 100% stay here again!

Lots of fun for the kids. Wish they had more activities throughout the day.

Site magnifique - nous avons tout aimé, seul désavantage -impossible d’accéder à des restos ou activités extérieurs à l’hôtel sans voiture.
