We spent 3 nights exploring the rainforest and the town of La Fortuna. Noah’s Forest is a thoughtful and well laid out property that gives the guest privacy, dine al fresco with the birds and frogs, and maybe see a sloth. The rooms are impeccably clean and comfortable. Even with the downpours of rain that we because accustomed to you can sit outside on your porch and listen to the rain and birds. Very calming. The hotel staff, in particular Anna, took care of many of our needs - booking a couple of last minute tours, massages and because we didn’t have a car, arranged our trip back to SJO. She is just lovely, genuine and professional in her communication. Breakfast is included and definitely needed when you have day long activities so don’t miss it. Because we didn’t have a car, we ate dinner at the resort as well and were not disappointed at all. They have local musicians play from 7-9. The team is attentive and genuinely welcoming towards us. A big thank you to Arlen our server!! I always say the experience is in the smaller details and Noah’s Forest did not disappoint.

Absolutely beautiful

Arrived at 1pm and was greeted by an extremely friendly team, Allan sat with us and told us all about the hotel and offered some advice on local tours. First impressions 'Wow!' As our room wasn't yet ready we headed to the restaurant for lunch. A small, intimate style restaurant, maybe 15 covers, set amongst the most beautiful, lush, colourful and vibrant surroundings. I've reviewed the restaurant on a separate review, but I'll mention here that all of the food we are at the restaurant was so tasty, and we ate breakfast, lunch and dinner here most days / evenings. Breakfast had cereals, toast, pastries freely available and you could then chose one plate from the menu - photos attached. Our bungalow, number 2, was a river view room and had a king-size bed, a sofabed for our Daughter, coffee machine, fridge, safe, wardrobe, his and her sink, double rain head style shower and the highlight - a private hot tub. I'd messaged the hotel to say it was my Husbands 50th birthday trip and they put a card, and a bottle of cava in our room and made a cake display out of towels and flowers. My daughter loved the towel creations which were in our room each day, The grounds of the hotel are absolutely beautiful, stunning trees, plants, flowers , so much colour. Then there are the birds which vary in size and song but provided us with much entertainment during our stay. Then there was the sloth. We were so fortunate to see a Sloth in the hotel grounds every day.

This property is stunning. I’ve been to La Fortuna before but this blue me away. From the moment I stepped on the grounds to the moment I left the staff were so amazing. So sweet and kind and hardworking. They really care about customer satisfaction here. I had the prior year stayed at a 4 star resort called the Royal Corin, my experience there was horrible but I fell in love with the town. I came back and stayed here and what I experienced can’t be put in stars. It’s what you are looking for. If you’re looking for a sign, this is it. This is the Costa Rican experience you want and will never forget.
