This magical tropical plant farm on the edge of the rainforest, a great place to spend a few days. It has many species of tropical fruits and exotic plants, including some that are in danger of extinction. There are 8 bedrooms to accommodate up to 20 guests. The rooms are beautifully decorated, have ceiling fans, and private bathrooms with hot water.There is a large terrace, with a stunning, superb view of the Arenal volcano.

After a long trip from San Jose I stopped a few miles before la Fortuna at a small soda just to get out of the car. Started to talk to some nice locals asking them about the accomedation situation in the city...when they said...no senior stop here and go up in the mountains and you will find something unusual!! (but in Spanish of course)
Wellll...but worth trying with my 4X4 even though the "road" seemed so so.....but once up there...WHAT A PLACE!!
It is not at all like a hotel...it´s a beautiful house in several levels and who designed the garden??!!....must be an absolut freak for plants!!...and it is...the landlord Jonathan!!...nice old sport indeed!!

Just go there and enjoy the high altitude overlooking both the Arenal but also a small canyon below stuffed with plants, flowers, a small river, a pool with natural water not to mention the veranda at night drinking a cold beer in the absolute dark seeing fireflies as well as the eruptions from the vulcano in the background....cool place and very relaxing!!

In the daytime you can hike in the valley with its beautiful fauna and untouched river as well as you can walk further up the mountain road just to get some exhausting exercise...or turn left at the gate and roll down to the soda and make them prepare some real "gallo pinto" for breakfast....thats what you eat in the morning as a "Tico"...or continue 10 minutes more and you´ll be in the actual center of la Fortuna!!

Pura Vida!!

ps. Back in Sweden again we have -20 celcius and around 120cm of snow here I live....puhhh. Guess where I would like to go back to......??!!

I stayed at the lodge with a group I was traveling with (16 people + 3 guides). It is a totally magical place to stay. Not far from Fortuna, but another world. You are in the middle of a beautiful rain forest and from where meals are served (which are amazingly good!) you look right into the forest, see numerous tropical birds (including two kinds of Toucans), as well as a view of the Volcano. The manager of the lodge is sweet, friendly, kind and extremely knowledgeable about the environs. Take his tour of the tropical plant farm and the river walk to the waterfall. Both are also magical. The staff is also wonderful, helfpful, and kind. The food is delicious, served family style. The fruit served with breakfast is as fresh as possible, and ridiculously good. Juice served with meals is homemade and also amazing. Rooms are comfortable and clean. No need for AC there, as the climate is temperate. There are fans in every room. I highly recommend this hotel if you are going to be visiting Fortuna. It is a once in a lifetime experience staying here.
