Absolutely perfect
Pros:

Our private room with pool was absolutely gorgeous. We felt safe, comfortable and very close to all the activities and tours we wanted to do. Our car battery died one day and they called the rental car company for us and made sure it was working properly by the time we got back from our tour. The staff was so wonderful and helpful, I cannot recommend the Fortuna Retreat enough.

Cons:

אהבנט
Pros:

המלון מהמם ביופיו, בעיקר הגינות והשטחים הסובבים.
מקלחת גדולה מאוד וברמה מאוד טובה.
החדרים בקומה שניה עם נוף טוב יותר להר הגעש..

Cons:

ארוחת הבוקר מוגשת במלון סמוך, מגוונת אבל לא היתה לטעמינו..

Perfect intro to Costa Rica with comfort, convenience, and nearby experiences
Pros:

We LOVED this location because it felt quaint and cozy, while being immersed in wildlife. The gardens were well maintained, beautiful, and immersed you in wildlife. We had a private patio with pool which we enjoyed with our 11-month old baby girl. The drive to the breakfast spot at arenal oasis took 1 minute and the walk to the restaurant allowed us to see and hear such amazing wildlife. Our room and facilities were so clean. We were very close to coffee/cacao tours, thermal springs, fortuna waterfall, nature tours, and of course the arenal volcano.

Cons:

I didn’t like that we only stayed 3 nights- we wish we could’ve stayed longer.
