It was absolutely perfect! I can’t wait to stay here again the next time I’m in La Fortuna. From the friendly staff and spotless rooms to the surrounding rainforest, everything felt so comfortable and welcoming. The food was incredible, and the nightly live artist at the restaurant was such a lovely bonus.
