Top Cerro Chato Lake Hotel Reviews

BAUMA

10/10 Excellent

"The property was really well maintained. the balcony has an excellent view of the volcano. the staff were very nice and accomodating. They were also very responsive when we messaged them. location of this property is also very good and close to all activities. A very excellent coffee and chocolate tour is right across the street from this property. a grocery store is also very close (30 second drive) to buy groceries. hot tub was clean and well maintained."

Tifakara by the Waterfall

10/10 Excellent

"I cannot say enough good things about Tifakara. Our stay was magical. From the wildlife off our back balcony (the rare treat of seeing a whole troop of monkeys!), the frog tour was thrilling, the daily included breakfast delicious and a perfect way to start a day of adventures in La Fortuna, to the luxurious accommodations (I’m forever spoiled by the remote controlled bidet toilet). All that would have been more than enough. But by far the best part about Tifakara is the staff. They were warm and accommodating and attended to us without feeling obtrusive. Everyone was beyond friendly and the warmth and genuineness was palpable. We loved every moment of our stay at Tifakara and if we’re ever fortunate enough to return to La Fortuna we would stay nowhere else."

Fortuna Retreat

10/10 Excellent

"This was the perfect location in La fortuna! We had the best view! Staff was very friendly and helpful. I will definitely come back!"
