Discover the charm of Hotel Secreto La Fortuna, a quiet retreat in the heart of Fortuna, Costa Rica. Just 300 meters from the park, our hotel offers air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi and breakfast included, ensuring a comfortable and pleasant stay. Our stay here was even better than expected! The entire experience exceeded our hopes, starting with the excellent food, the location, the outside area . the garden is full of hummingbirds 😊 What truly stood out was the cleanliness of the place. The rooms were spotless and well-maintained throughout our stay. A big thank you to the ladies who cleaned the rooms — they were kind, efficient, and always had a smile on their faces. Their attention to detail did not go unnoticed. A special mention must go to Fabricio at reception, who was without a doubt the best receptionist we've ever met. He went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and taken care of, helping with everything from local tips to making sure our needs were met. His professionalism and friendliness truly made a difference. We would gladly return and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great stay!

Staff are extremely pleasant and attentive and always went out of there way to help you, even pointing out some wildlife in the trees above, ( literally a sloth living in the trees above the restuarant every where around you you see something interesting!) The grounds around the Finca are also astonishing you have a few walks you can do around the grounds and you are guaranteed to see all sorts of wildlife, they also do some tours onsite as they have a massive reserve of land, we did the night tour and it did not dissapoint, we saw a multitude of wildlife as the forrest literally comes alive at night, from the most colourful of tree frogs to giant fruit bats there was always something to spot, our guide was also extremely informative and had eyes like a hawk for finding things. The restaurant and bar are situated right next to the pool is well furnished and relaxing place to chill for a very good cocktail or a Craft beer that is made by a local small brewery. The food here is exceptional with the menu changing daily and provided locally from the farmlands of the finca itself, the breakfast was also fantastic, made to order eggs and fresh yoghurts, fruit etc.. even the honey is made onsite from the stingless bees. We even had to leave very early before breakfast on our last day there and they kindly provided some fruits and juice for us to take. The pool is large and well maitained and also the jacuzzi is located nearby, thre is also a spa area should you wish to have some treatments, Overall a breathtaking place and you will not be dissapointed should you choose to stay.
