When my boyfriend and I stayed at Hotel Mountain Paradise last spring we knew it was a nice hotel, what we didn't realize at the time was how many valuable memories we were making. It's been nearly a year since our trip to Costa Rica and we often relect on the spectacular memories we made there, this hotel in particular.... More

the rooms here are very nicely appointed. There are 2 shower options, one a real waterfall and the other a rain shower, and, if that isn't enough, there is a jetted spa tub on the patio! good views of the volcano and lush grounds. the pool is thermal, jetted and has a swim up bar with well priced drinks. breakfast...

This is a not bad accommodation (bungalow style rooms) and very handy to most attractions. While it is about 10 miles outside La Fortuna there is a free shuttle in and out of town. NOTE: the last shuttle back to the hotel is at about 5:00pm so if you want to eat at one of the several restaurants in town... More

The room is large, the shower fun and interesting. Our room was set way back in the property, and the lighting on the paths leading to the room was poor. The room smelt musty all the time, I suppose it is to be expected when it rains almost every day, and it did while we were there, although beginning of... More

Just got back and the resort was wonderful, beautiful rooms a bit on the dark side, but spacious, well appointed, and the rainfall shower was a highlight, the grounds well maintained. The biggest plus for us was the heated 24/7 pool. Great way to kick back and have a drink at the pool side bar. Very convenient location. Breakfast each... More

I took my niece to Costa Rica as a high school graduation gift. We enjoyed this hotel more than anywhere else we stayed. The property was beautiful, the staff friendly, and the rooms large and nice. My niece said it was where she wanted to stay on her honeymoon someday. I especially want to compliment the restaurant. The traditional Costa... More

Rooms in separate buildings covering a few acres, paths lined with flowering plants and colorful palms, this is a breathtaking property. Each building is painted a different color, which sounds garish but truly enhances the ambience and becomes a photographers paradise. Our room was on a hillside with a perfect view of Arenal Volcano and was further enhanced by an... More

We arrived late and were warmly welcomed. We were taken to our rooms (suites) by golf carts and our luggage arrived soon after. The rooms are very large and well decorated but could use dressers. The shower is awesme and fun. We very surprised to find that we could catch a VIP football game on the TV there and so... More

This hotel is different in that all the rooms are separately scattered over the property amongst beautiful gardens and almost hidden so you are not aware that others are sharing your little piece of paraadise. The walk to your room is not far but there are many buggies around so you can often hitch a ride anyway. Wherever you are... More

While I read the previous reviews of this hotel which for the most part were very positive, my actual experience was of being pleasantly surprised. It went beyond my expectations. Upon our arrival, we were greeted with cool damp towels and a fresh fruit drink. We were then wisked to our junior suite which held one king-size bed and a... More
