“Best day trip, hiking trails and volcano views”
I did not stay overnight here. We paid for the day pass (which included lunch). We had the most memorable experience here and cannot believe how many of the trails we hiked had so few people. I feel like it is a hidden gem with some of the best volcano views, mixed with waterfall trails and wild… more

Everyone was friendly, especially Priscilla and Christian in the restaurant. I did several … more

Lots of bonus amenities like a game room, bird watching decks, and on-site museum with a great, modern cafe. Our room was very comfortable with two king beds and a great… more

They had their own guided tours and plenty of trails to walk without a guide. I did the night tour seeing the f… more

You'll be away from the hustle and bustle of La Fortuna with an extensive proprietary trail network from which you can spot all … more
