I had an incredible stay at Noah’s Forest, and I cannot recommend it highly enough! From the moment I arrived, the front desk staff—Allan, Sol, and Anna—went above and beyond to ensure I had a wonderful experience. They were welcoming, attentive, and accommodating in every way. I especially appreciated their kindness in allowing me to check out a bit late after my spa treatment ran over. I felt so bad about the delay, but they assured me it was no issue at all, which truly exemplified their exceptional hospitality. One of the most memorable parts of my stay was waking up to the soft sound of rain in the rainforest. It was so peaceful and serene—an experience that truly allowed me to disconnect and embrace the natural beauty of the surroundings. The restaurant at Noah’s Forest was another highlight of my stay. The food was absolutely delicious, with a wide variety of beautifully prepared dishes that exceeded my expectations. A special shout-out to Arlan and Adrian, who were phenomenal. Their kindness, warmth, and professionalism truly brought the “Pura Vida” spirit to life. They made every dining experience memorable, and their outstanding service added an extra layer of enjoyment to my trip. The live music in the evenings created the perfect ambiance, making for a truly special experience. Overall, Noah’s Forest provided an unforgettable experience with top-notch service, amazing food, and a team that genuinely cares about their gues

Secluded property in La Fortuna. Each room was a free standing building, with its own hot tub. Shower was excellent. The included breakfast was excellent and coffee was available all day. So many activities in the area. Highly recommend if you are not looking for the hustle and bustle of a large hotel. Pool area was nice and there were added amenities such as a pool table

Excellent property! Would highly recommend and would stay here again in a heartbeat. The staff was tip notch helping point out the sloths in the tress around the property as well as accommodating us for a special night tour of their sister property because we were only there one night before we left to head back home. Would have loved to stay longer in this area and explore more that it has to offer.

Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. They helped set up telescopes so we could see the birds and sloths in the trees. Hot tub outside our room was a nice touch. Rooms were large and comfortable. Only downsides were there really isn’t a bar or place to have evening drinks. Also the cost of bottled water was ridiculous ($30 for two bottles of Fiji water).

We had the best time staying at Noahs Forest. The staff were very freindly and helpful and always took the time to check on you. We loved the facilities especially the pool and ping pong tables, as well as the jacuzzi in the room. Everything was very clean and the best possible standard. Thank you for finding the sloths everyday, we'd never of managed without the helpfully positioned telescope and map! Special shout out to anna for organising the frog tour and always smiling with the best energy. Muchas Gracias!

This was truly a five-star experience. The rooms are gorgeous, And the grounds are luxurious and well landscaped. And to be able to see multiple sloths and animals on the property without having to leave or pay for a tour is tremendous! There was a sloth outside the breakfast area our last morning. What a special treat. .Anna, Sol, Kevin, Adrian, Charlie, Allen, Allan, Modesto, every single person on staff is professional, courteous and friendly and willing to help at any time. The property offers a complimentary nature walk on site as well as a complimentary night tour on their sister property, these are tremendous and such great values and pretty much were better than anything. We ended up paying for the rest of our trip. Highly recommend This property I can't say enough about it

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and we absolutely loved it! The staff was so friendly and kind. We loved our room and how it was surrounded by plants. We got to see sloths in the morning on our walk to the restaurant for breakfast. The breakfast was great as well. We also booked a couples massage and the receptionist helped us with it and got it booked. Overall we highly recommend to stay here
