Crazy place! What a view, what a sound, really living nature. The most beautiful place we were in Costa Rica. The breakfast was excellent, a very tasty omelet that is prepared on the spot according to choice. We had a problem with the hot water but the service team solved it for us immediately and there was boiling water! Highly recommend the place.

Featuring an extensive garden, a sun terrace with swimming pool, spa treatments and free Wi-Fi throughout, this hotel is 10 minutes’ drive from the Arenal Volcano National Park and from La Fortuna Town Centre.

Stunning property, friendly staff, big clean rooms, enormous breakfast selection, loads of pool/hot tub choices with different temperatures and privacy. Watch the clouds clear over Arenal volcano as you enjoy your breakfast. We saw more animals here than in Arenal National Park (alligator, camen, iguana, goannas, squirrels, male and female curassow and even a monkey). Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend or stay again.

Offering an outdoor pool and a restaurant, Tifakara Boutique Hotel is located just outside Arenal Volcano National Park in Fortuna where you can enjoy stunning volcanic views. Free WiFi access is available in this hotel.

From the moment you first walk into the Tifakara Hotel lounge, you begin to experience the highest quality in customer service offered by this charming, unique hotel, which just happens to be home to hundreds of birds and trees. My friend and I were early for check in; however, Allan, the receptionist during the morning shift, offered to store our bags, prior to welcoming us to use the pool as well as the restaurant. We headed to the pool and shortly after Allan came to tell us our room was ready. We stayed in the balcony room with views of the volcano and beautiful greenery from where we were able to watch all species of birds fly by us as if no one was actually there. Amazing! In the morning, as we entered the restaurant, we were immediately greeted by Dylan, the most charming and service oriented waiter I have encountered in a long time. The lady behind the counter greeted us and kindly introduced us to the choices we could make regarding fruit juice, coffee and delicious pastry. This hotel is for couples, families, people that are looking for a bird watching heaven that offers a night tour through a magical garden filled with frogs and a few snakes. Why not? Moreover, if you are looking to hit the Fortuna Waterfall early, this is the place to choose. Yes, beautiful infrastructure to say the least; nonetheless, to me the finest customer service there is. Enjoy your stay fellow travelers. Before I forget, last but not least; the girl that cleaned our room found clothes I had carelessly left behind. She immediately packed it for me in a small bag and made sure she gave it to me before I left the hotel. Sweet? Yes!

The property itself is very well maintained and features beautiful flowers!

    The hotel is set away from the more tourist places in an oasis of calm - if that is possible in the jungle. Rooms were very spacious and well designed, set in luscious grounds full of wildlife. The team were very friendly and the service was probably the best we found in all of Costa Rica. I would recommend anyone to stay if they want a more relaxed, authentic stay in this beautiful country

    Lovely small boutique property with a lovely pool area and 2 jacuzzis. Staff were incredibly helpful and friendly and the property is set within an oasis of greenery. The wildlife, while wonderful, is very close so earplugs are recommended for restful sleep!

    Stunning property with great view of the volcano - we were lucky enough to see it without any cloud. Pool and hot springs area is amazing with its swim up bars. Rooms were lovely and always a buggy to pick you up if you don’t want to make the short walk to the facilities. Breakfast was delicious, with a great choice. Only a short taxi ride to La Fortuna if you want to go there for shopping, dinner etc.

    Beautiful property. The view of Arenal is unbeatable. Very well manicured. The hot springs at the Rio Club are amazing. Nice activities for the kids: including mini golf, game room, game tables, pool, pin pong, etc We had a room with two queen beds. The rooms was spacious but I felt like they needed a better interior layout design ( no real living space for the size of the room). The balcony was great with a nice view of the volcano. Everything was very clean. The staff was very kind and friendly.

    We had a great stay in this family Boutique hotel. Everything was clean and brand new. Nice birds and even a sloth 🦥 on the tree made our day. We were only for one night there but would recommend this accommodation to everyone.

    The property is beautiful. Carlos and his family have done an amazing job, really felt like home. Beautiful decor throughout. The beds were super comfortable and the outdoor space was gorgeous. Very clean too. Despite being on a busy road, it felt very secluded thanks to the lush greenery. It was lovely sitting on the balcony after the kids went to bed, listening to the wildlife.

    The reception staff were friendly and helpful. The room was really lovely with 2 comfortable double beds and an amazing view of Arenal volcano. We had a lovely porch with 2 rocking chairs where we could sit and relax in the midst of the volcano. The cleaning staff were brilliant and made our blankets into all sorts of wonderful designs!
