My husband and I stayed here during our Costa Rican honeymoon. We would never have found it on our own, and we were thrilled to have such a safe, reasonable place to stay. The owner knew it was our honeymoon and went out of his way to ensure we had a great time. On the night we arrived he drove... More

The owners were the kindest people ever. The rooms incredibly clean. The swimming pool a dream. The room very spacious. And a nice soda right in front of the hotel for breakfast. I highly recommend it!

Friendly little 7 room hotel. Nice little pool and relaxing areas. David the GM is the nicest, most helpful young man you could ever meet. We had a great view of the volcano from our room balcony. It is not in town but close enough so you don't have all the noise and its next door to a grocery store.... More

We loved Bijagua from the time we arrived and David welcomed us like we were family. The rooms and bathrooms were great with plety of hot water (use the cold side for hot bc they are reversed by the installer). We felt like we were on our own private vacation here! It's truly a hidden gem. Whenever we left the... More

We stayed for one night and as soon as we arrived, we felt like home. Despite the hotel is standing on the main road, it's really quiet when you get in the backyard. David found us a last minute wonderfull horseback riding to an impresive cataract and he also gave us to taste bananas from his garden. We had the... More

We stayed here for 2 nights during our 8 day trip to Costa Rica this March. It was our first accommodation in the country. While the volcano is what brought us to LaFortuna we couldn't see it at all for the low clouds and rain. That being said, the hotel was perfect and David (manager/owner) was amazing. The hotel is...

We stayed here overnight on February 20th, 2013. We were very impressed with all aspects of this hotel. Location, rooms, cleanliness, value and particularly the service, are all excellent. The grounds are well maintained and the pool and other common areas are very nice. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone staying in La Fortuna!

After only one night's stay, I wish I would not have had a cancellation penalty for my other Arenal hotel. Location, price, and service were top notch here. I wish I had seen reviews talking more location detail in previous reviews as this would helped plan better, so I hope this helps you. Location - Only about 2km away from... More
