This is the most interesting resort I've ever been to. Beautiful grounds and views. Very good food and friendly staff. The Los Canones zipline tour is great (dedicated and professional staff), and conveniently located right on the beautiful grounds of the resort. This place has something for everyone; romantic atmosphere, fun & adventure, and kid friendly at the same time.... More

We stayed for 1 night. They have many hot pools and 3 slides which are all really fast!!! They have a small butterfly, frog, crocodile farm and they have a hiking trail to see the best view of the volcano. We saw lots of birds hiking around the property. We were quite pleased with the howler monkeys, the JC lizzards... More

Incredibly relaxing place, 3 swimming pools, 4 springs, waterfalls, excellent views of the volcano, private overlook 2.5k hike away. In La Fortuna, you either stay in town and get transportation to the waterfall / cerro chato / hot springs or you stay at a resort that is out of town and get transportation to the waterfall / cerro chato, but...

The location was wonderful and the rooms were huge! There was a front door and a back door, both with patios and both with incredible views; in the morning I could have coffee on the back patio and watch the sun come up and then go around to the front and have a picture perfect view of the volcano. Breakfast... More

This is a great place for travelers with kids. 11 pools, 5 of them heated with water slides. Swim up bar for adults. Butterfly garden, alligator enclosure, great zip line, frog garden, monkeys in the trees. 2 restaurants. Great experience. Restaurant a little pricy.

The hotel was clean and the rooms were very nice. I really enjoyed the ant and butterfly farms. And the views are amazing. We don't usually stay in resorts, so the grounds seemed a little like a mini golf course to us. But the pools and hot springs are great and kid friendly. The staff at the ant farm were... More

We stayed 2 nights at Los Lagos. This was a big hit for my 11 year old grandson who LOVED the water slides. Our room was at the top of the hill so we had to drive down to the pools (or there was transportation). Our room was very spacious and clean. No Wi-Fi except in common areas. Reported a... More

We were booked in this resort hotel for a night by our guide on an overnight experience. Hotel is a bit of a nisnomer as there are separate building a walking distance from the check in. That said I like exercise so that did not bother me. I found the rooms were quite adequate although by no means plush, they... More

We loved staying here. Amazing views. Away from the very touristy La Fortuna. You need to take shuttles from the facilities to your room. Plan ahead or you do a lot of walking. Tours set up by the Lodge are pricey and not the best places to visit. Venture out with others (Sky Trek, Pure Trek, Wave Expeditions...). They will... More
