Bien! Pero la experiencia en el restaurante fue de baja calidad.
Pros:

La ubicación, los jarndines, las vistas, el wet bar, el servicio del personal, la cama, los perezosos, los cokteles, las termales.

Cons:

Las cabañas son cómodas pero están obsoletas, sin acabados finos, la Tv obsoleta con telecable de mala calidad, no hay Netflix.

El restaurante bien en el menu, pero, no es elegante, mucho ruido de la calle, mobiliario simple, la musica no se escucha, la cocina produce tanto ruido que distrae la paz, platos y cucharas caen a cada rato, el bufett es incomodo, la fila de los huevos al gusto se atravieza en el flujo de la fila, NO es un restaurante elegante.

La relación precio vrs el hotel no compenza, está sobre valorado, o quizá fue porque fui en semana Santa, pero en general le doy un 7.5 y no me dejó una sensación de querer volver, a pesar que la pasé bien y descanse.

Bajar un poco el precio o modernizar las instalaciones. Gracias!

Les deseo suerte!

Pros:

Location was fantastic for exploring all things La Fortuna. The staff were wonderful. The facility was nice, with everything on a smaller scale (you are not staying at a huge beach resort.) We also enjoyed the food! Book the excursions! Highly recommend the Twilight Safari Float, we saw so many amazing animals!

Cons:

The kitchen is very slow. Everyone was wonderful and the food was delicious, but they need more staff. So get to the restaurant early and order right away! Also, confirm what all inclusive you have when you arrive. There are different "levels" and options depending on the days of the week you are there (for us, the buffet was included on the weekends but during the week we were able to order from the full restaurant menu and it was included.)

Pros:

The hotel is located on a large area. Beautiful views. Even though we visited in the middle of the season, it didn’t feel crowded. There are hot springs, and you can take part in free walks (nighttime observation of wildlife or morning birdwatching).

Pros:

La bienvenida y el desayuno

Cons:

1-El jacuzzi estaba dañado
2-las cortinas son muy claras, la habitación quedaba como si fuera de día en la noche. No se podía descansar en el día. Mucha claridad.
3-cuándo llegamos, estaba lloviendo mucho y no encontramos el número de habitación, porque se encontraba por el lado adentro. No se visualiza desde la acera.

Pros:

Me gustó la calidad de la comida, la cama resultó ser super cómoda. La ubicación es fantástica frente al volcán, las instalaciones lindas, limpias
y el personal super amable.
Diría que si se desea priorizar la comodidad, el buen servicio al cliente y la aventura, este hotel es una gran opción.

Cons:

Si su prioridad es disfrutar de las aguas termales, este NO es la mejor opción. No solo porque son muy pequeñas para tantas habitaciones, si no porque estaban tibias o frías.
Por todo lo demás, es una excelente opción.
