The location is right below the waterfall and if you want to be in the jungle- this is it! The staff are very helpful but this property has seen better days and needs some investment in the grounds and the rooms and villas. The villa we rented was spacious and we thought clean but upon looking closer you see mold in the bathrooms and the villa had some type of critter in the walls that will keep you up at night. There is also a very treacherous path for your car to get to the villas so be warned. It was not what we expected and I would definitely not stay there again.

I love the fact that as soon as we arrived on the property, we saw a slot! I guess there’s a family of them. The front desk staff was super friendly. Our bungalow in the jungle was secluded and awesome. You need to know that it was dated, however. A little bit like camping in the woods. It was probably the best value out there.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The rooms feel damp and there is absolutely no soundproofing so you can hear all your neighbours in their rooms or in the hallway. Ideally you need a car to get to the property. I used Ubers to get to the main town which were about CRC3,000 each way. The breakfast was good & the views are fantastic. There are no shops/restaurants close by which is not ideal if you don’t have a car.

Overall, it is really good. However, their breakfast portion is very small and it is little convenient to go during allotted time period ! The should be more open in providing extra towels - not just one on one exchange.

It’s a beautiful property has a lot of potential. The Internet doesn’t work, which is great if you wanna completely disconnect. It’s about 15 minutes away from downtown Fortuna so you’ll have to rely on taxis or Ubers to get back-and-forth to different activities. The showers are exposed completely so you can only hope that someone doesn’t walk behind your lodge when you are taking a shower. Getting to some of cabins is tough for elders (multiple stairs).
