Not very well located in La Fortuna, a good hike or short cab ride from town. There was a large variance in the rooms offered here, so I would suggest that you request to see the room prior to check in. Our room was great, however some rooms had far less amenities, such as windows, mini fridge and Tv. I... More

We stayed here as part of our EF Tour and found charming spacious Cabins with wooden floors air conditioning, comfortable beds and plenty of hot water. The room was spotlessly clean and the staff pleasant. The food was nothing fancy bit was fresh and satisfying. The grounds are very pretty. With a great view of Arenal Volcano. It is a... More

This "resort" consisting of nice cabins surrounded by pretty landscaping was OK. The room was attractive and comfortable...once we obtained a remote to operate the A/C (yes, wierd). The wifi didn't reach the room and our patio didn't have a chair let alone two. A bit of a walk to town but we didn't mind the exercise and it is... More

I stayed at Las Cabanitas during a tour with gAdventures. The "resort" consists of cabins and a small, slightly dirty pool. Nobody in my tour group took a dip in there. The cabins are nice and spacious with A/C and fans. There is Wifi in the reception area which was pretty far from my cabin. I didn't like the fact... More

We stayed here for three nights and it was gig enough for us. Cute cabins/bungalows with nice bathrooms. Nothing more than we expected for a three stars hotel. It raked about 15 min to walk to La Fortuna Centrum. Five min walk to the nearest supermarket and a gas station on the other side of the road. The hotel had... More

Beautiful little resort in La Fortuna, located on the outskirts of the town. Each room is a small cabin with its own bathroom and front decking area (with rocking chair). The cabins are all very clean and quaint. Theres also a swimming pool, bar and restaraunt located on site. The only downside to this resort was the fact that is... More

We arrived and initially thought the cabins were cute, but they were not really well kept, nor clean. We found ants everywhere the next morning and we were not even keeping food inside. Looking back, that's probably why everyone had their wet clothes hanging outside, too. The breakfast was nothing special and there were no options for lunch or dinner... More

I stayed here in June 2012 with a high school EF Tour. My cabinita was clean, comfortable & had good a/c once it was figured out. Poor water pressure and no hot water for the shower. No screens on the windows, so use care at night. I found huge insects in the bathroom when turning on the light. Pool was... More

My first moments at this resort were spent on the pavement as we unloaded luggage in the driving rain at night. There is very poor lighting (true all over Costa Rica) and there was a rise in the pavement that I couldn't see so I ended up sprawled out and bleeding from a huge scrape on the knee. Scars are...

Completely deceptive place. This place was supposed to have a pool, and AC for starters. In reality, the AC did not work, the pool was broken and there were bugs everywhere. For the price charged, this was completely unacceptable. From all accounts, this is standard business practice for the place. Don't ever stay here. If you find that your tour... More
