Rancho Cerro Azul was everything one could ask for in a serene, restful, retreat. The location was perfectly peaceful and quiet with a less than five minute ride into La Fortuna. The grounds and rooms were very well maintained and extremely clean. The air conditioning was a nice break when it was humid and the hot tub was a perfect way to end each day.

Wonderful cabins with lush tropical plants, trees, exotic flowers everywhere! Room good sized, approx 14 x 16 ft plus an outdoor covered patio with a hot tub. The attached restaurant has gourmet food as well. Staff are friendly and attractive. Will return there again.

The property is amazing! We enjoyed the amenities: nature trails, river, bird sightings, cabin, and clean Jacuzzi. For a fee, you can enjoy a Costa Rican breakfast including freshly squeezed orange juice and a fruit salad. We love the place and have stayed there several times.

We loved our stay! The staff were incredibly friendly, and helpful and they organized great private transportation for us to get from LIR airport at the start of our stay. We absolutely loved our room - the AC worked well, the beds were very comfortable and we enjoyed lounging in the hammocks and using the outdoor jacuzzi tub. We utilized the restaurant for a quick dinner on our first night, and for a couple of our breakfasts (came with coffee, fresh juice and a fruit plate in addition to a main). Walking around the property felt like a dream - it was so lush! The location was great for getting picked up for tours, walking to El Salto rope swing, and we could be in town in about 25 mins (walk) or 5 minutes drive. Would definitely come back!

My girlfriend and I stayed here for 5 days and had one of the best times! The staff was fantastic, super helpful with tours and overall hospitality and tips for what to do. The breakfast was so good, I recommend it especially for the price. Bar was awesome. Room was perfect, location was perfect. It’s a gem, will be returning soon.

Memorable, magical place I will never forget and the only place I will stay at in La Fortuna if we return. We stayed in Cabin 8, a "Romantic Cabin 1 King Bed". The cabin was bougie, so spacious, high ceilings and the bathroom was large with actual ample counter space. Shower pressure was great too. The grounds are beautiful & our cabin was completely surrounded by greenery so even though we knew some other people were staying there too, it certainly felt like we had the place to ourselves. Cabins 1-6 are a little more side by side. The king-sized cabins (7 and 8) I believe are set at an angle & are super private so worth the extra $ I think. Cabin 9 is at the very back of the propery & truly off all by itself. The private balcony with hammock and table with chairs was where we spent so much time, watching the birds (saw several toucans, hummingbirds, and a bunch of other I can't identify). We could see the Arenal Volcano from the side of our balcony too. We stayed in "rainy season" (mid to later June) and loved sitting on the covered balcony in all weather. It mostly rained only some afternoons/evenings. Service for us was above and beyond. After an 8+ hour flight delay, we ended up arriving at 3 am. We had messaged the front desk to let them know we'd be coming in after they closed at 10 and they told us a Security Guard would be watching for us. He was and showed us right to our room. Our cabin had a fridge, microwave, & coffee maker in a little kitchenette area

Tuvimos una excelente experiencia. El hotel estaba muy bonito, limpio y bien cuidado. Todo se veía impecable y las habitaciones eran muy cómodas. El personal fue muy amable, atento y siempre dispuesto a ayudar. Sin duda volveríamos y lo recomendamos a quienes busquen un lugar agradable para hospedarse.

We enjoyed our four nights. The food at the restaurant was amazing and Izaac was wonderful. His recommendations were spot on and the drinks were fantastic. William was great at check-in and helping us book our daily activities. The room was comfortable and the outdoor jacuzzi was a nice way to relax after a day of exploring. Would definitely stay again.

My daughter and I stayed here on a recent trip to Costa Rica, and we were so happy with this choice- it was clean and the hot tub/back deck area was perfect for us. I would highly recommend this property- it was clean, the staff were friendly and helpful and we had a great time- it’s close to everything we wanted to do I. La Fortuna

I accidentally stumbled into this location and boy was I pleasantly surprised! The property was beautifully maintained. Each lodge offers some privacy from others by using plant life. The tub was ridiculously large, fitting 4 people. it was quiet, peaceful, and a beautiful example of local hospitality. The staff was friendly and offered local tours (which we used). They are located very close to local sites and are within walking distance to a small market, shops, & restaurants.

The place was as seen on website. Met my expectations and more. The receptionist were very kind and helpful.

I could NOT recommend this stay more, it was absolutely amazing. The rooms are like private bungalows that have hammocks, a hottub, and a small fridge. The bar on sight is also a fantastic place to spend some time in the afternoon. It’s extremely close to the city center, the waterfall, and other activities. I wish I could have stayed longer!! I’d return in a heartbeat.

We loved our time at Rancho Cerro Azul. It was an awesome place with a friendly staff. The two bedroom cabin was perfect for our family of 5, plenty of space to all sleep comfortably without being on top of each other. It was clean and a great value for the price, it was also located close to restaurants and a lot of the area attractions. Our only complaint is that our specific cabin (#10) was right near the road, so there was a little bit of noise, and also the drain on the patio hot tub must’ve not sealed all the way because we couldn’t ever get it to fill up. But all in all, we would stay there again and recommend it.

We had Cabin #1 which had very nice and serine view of the lush tropical plants that surrounded the deck and hot tub. We were visited every morning by a hummingbird. Along the short walk to the river, we encountered their version of wild turkeys and steers, there we had a romantic lunch sitting on the rocks and enjoying nature. Be prepared for your 5:30 wakeup call by the howler monkey across the street in the trees from the hotel as well as the locals traveling to work, the hotel is close to the road. As far as downtown, shopping and attractions they are only minutes away. On a good day you can see and take pictures of the entire Arenal volcano. To eat, I highly recommend "Pollo Fortuneno" for their tomahawk steak...expensive but oh so divine! The hotel staff was very friendly and accommodating. The only thing that was an inconvenience for us (don't know about the others) was that there wasn't a microwave to heat up food or hot water kettle for coffee or tea, however there was a fridge. I will definitely return.

We had an excellent stay, the staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful. Our large cabin was on the edge of the Rainforest and would choose it again. The small bar had games to play and the bartender made amazing drinks - we made this a part of our day. On site we saw a variety of birds, including a toucan. 100% recommend this property, especially for visitors with their own rental vehicle.
