Chachagua Rainforest Hotel & Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent
"This resort was incredible- Location was secluded and away from the main parts of town and was truly a diamond in the jungle. Spent 3 nights with family and had replanted tours with other good operators and later found out Chachagua also offered these services too. The property was well manicured, the hot springs were awesome in the rain, as well as some of the nature walks/night walk. The food on property was great and staff was super accommodating and strived for perfection. Would definitely stay again!"

Camino Verde Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent
"The overall set up of the building was very cool. Loved how the rooms were set apart from the main area, in our case, through an outdoor walkway. And what a great common area inside and outside on the deck! The deck overlooked the countryside. The breakfast options provided were wonderful and we felt well taken care of. The decor of the building and rooms was truly unique, loved the white stucco, open beams and coloured glass bead designs! Very comfortable, clean and accommodating stay."

"We had a group of four with two rooms and all of us had an amazing experience. We took advantage of the restaurant, pool bar and spa and could not be happier. The hot spring pools were clean and visually stunning, surrounded by gardens. The resort staff were kind and helpful. Even with passing rain showers the pools were a perfect way to relax and enjoy La Fortuna."

"We loved everything about our stay at Noah's Forest! Cristal was very helpful at check-in and the welcome drink was delicious! The property was beautiful, clean, and well maintained. Jeisson was helpful with our bags and had a telescope set up to show up slothes in the trees as soon as we arrived. Josue and Stephan (not sure if I am spelling his name right) were amazing as our waiters every day for breakfast and other meals. They were attentive, learned all of our names, and welcomed us daily. Pool and hot tubs were clean and enjoyable. We always felt safe. I would highly recommend staying here!"
