Peace and tranquility in a hidden sanctuary.
We were very pleased with the location, staff, and area surrounding Hotel Kokoro. The grounds are so beautifully maintained and it is like a sanctuary. Staff were incredibly kind and helpful. The meals were very good and we really enjoyed our stay.

Great view. Beautiful garden around the property. The hotel has three hot springs, which is very convenient to soak in after hiking for a day. The restaurant is reasonably priced.

Great value! Exceptional staff! Area is really beautiful. Great breakfast (buffet style), dinner option on spot.
The pearl of the hotel is the hot springs (mineral water, pumped daily from 350m deep). Much nicer (and warmer) than the warm river options around.
I will definitely stay here again, if returning to Arenal area.

The staff at Hotel Kokoro were pleasant, and accommodating. When we had a tour departing before breakfast opened they made 3 to go bags for us to take the next morning. If you’re looking for a quiet place that’s on the pick up list for day tours and not in the middle of the tourist area, Kokoro is great.

Situated in beautiful natural surroundings, woke up one day by howler monkey cries, saw beautiful birds flew by room, watched a sloth moving down the tree while soaking in relaxing hot springs, relaxing massage while listening to nature sound was heavenly. Service was good, comfortable room. The only regret we have is getting sick after having dinner on site.

Beautiful grounds, clean and great food. Staff was very friendly. Great communication. Stayed late so we could check in (due to a six hour flight delay). Room was comfortable with a great view of the volcano! Easy to find and close to all the attractions in La Fortuna. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Amazing experience for half the price of resorts
This place was INCREDIBLE. The views were stunning and there is a 15 minute walking trail that makes you feel like youre in the middle of the jungle. Staff was very friendly and the food at the restaurant delicious. The mineral pools were only have full but it was nice and were included in the stay. Id skip the more expensive resorts and go here for a quaint but still top teir cabin lodging experience.
