Un endroit pour se ressourcer
Pros:

Les eaux thermales et les piscines, ainsi que leurs horaires d'ouverture étendus.
La nature et le calme.

Cons:

À noter : Il y a une erreur sur les informations mentionnées sur Booking.com : ce n'est pas possible de se rendre aux parcs environnants aussi rapidement que l'indique ce site ("1 minute à pied pour aller au parc national du volcan" et "3 minutes à pied pour se rendre au parc écologique"). Le personnel de l'hôtel nous a indiqué que la façon la plus rapide de s'y rendre est en voiture/Uber.

Pros:

Nous venons de séjourner en famille au Vocalno Lodge.
L'accueil à la réception était parfait . Les chambres étaient spacieuses et propres.
La restauration est correcte, une carte plutôt internationale que locale. Le petit-déjeuner sous forme de buffet est copieux .
L'espace thermale est fantastique . Nous avons apprécié les différents espaces de sources chaudes et un petit plus pour les jacuzzis et son bar.
La situation de l'hôtel est proche de toutes les activités que La Fortuna peut proposer.

Cons:

They put the playground right between the pool and the view of the volcano. A different location for the playground might have been better..

Pros:

Ambiente muito bom. O jardim é lindo e bem cuidado , muitos pássaros , o jardim da suite é muito lindo , também o ofurô do quarto é um complemento muito bacana , onde relaxamos na volta dos passeios. O café da manhã é muito gostoso , o restaurante aberto a noite é uma facilidade. A cordialidade dos staff foi incrivel. Adoramos a estadia.
