Absolutely wonderful resort!

The two gentlemen working the front desk truly were more like concierge’s. They were in constant contact with me as this was my first trip to Costa Rica with my son. They arranged all of the activities the driver to pick us up from the airport. Breakfast was absolutely wonderful gorgeous layout. My only disappointment was with Hotels.com as we had to leave a day early which we knew long before our trip due to work schedule and they wouldn’t let me change the reservation. I had to cancel it entirely, but then I wrist not getting this hotel again this hotel great location. We walked everywhere to dinner. Would definitely stay there again.

This hotel looked amazing in the photos, which hardly did the spot justice. There was a garden in the center of the property with a pool and patio area and many exotic plants. Breakfast (three options) was served in a open air patio area. The staff put fruit out to encourage the birds to visit, providing a colorful, entertaining show. Our room was brand new, with a semi-private balcony. It was very quiet and felt safe and secure. There were both a two toed and a three toed sloth in residence in trees next to the hotel, which was exciting since we had not seen any on our trip to Costa Rica to that point. So happy we stayed there!

Oustanding La Fortuna Location!

Outstanding location in the heart of La Fortuna. 3 minutes walk to downtown restaurants and shops. Beautiful gardens in the Courtyard that feel like you are in the Rain Forest (well, technically you are!). Accommodations are simple but clean. Everything works, and the Air Conditioning is very pleasant.

Christmas in La Fortuna

The property is conveniently located to many shops, sodas/restaurants, banks, and attractions . Parking lot is safe. The breakfast is typical Costa Rican fare that tastes just okay. The staff was very friendly. The rooms were basic, but clean. The mattress was pretty hard and the pillows were very thick.

Room was nice in Costa Rican standards and was clean. Staff was amazing.The tv should be upgraded to a smart tv and at full volume you could barely hear it so it needs replacing. Breakfast also had teal bacon, something you usually don't get. Bonus!

Secreto feels like you are in the middle of a rain forest - it's beautiful. The best part is the many birds that visit the property. We also saw a sloth one night and a tree frog. Staff were friendly; housekeeping staff greet you with beautiful art with towels on the bed each day. Will definitely stay at Secreto again!
