Only a short uber ride into La Fortuna and a very short walk to the waterfalls. Definitely recommend it.

Pura Vida Hotel 4 stars

Alajuela City

Pura Vida Hotel is located in Alajuela and is surrounded by extensive tropical gardens. All the accommodations here feature garden or volcano views, plus it has a restaurant on site serving gourmet dinners with previous request. Great place for a first night in Costa Rica. We arrived late from the airport and received a warm welcome. Owner Berni was very communicative and helpful by email before arrival. He supplies a wealth of information about Costa Rica in written form and in person, as he was around at breakfast to chat with the guests about their upcoming travels. The hotel has a beautiful garden and breakfast was fresh and tasty.
