We loved our stay (during low season) at Las Orquideas. We were close to town to walk and enjoy local Soda's, adventure, etc, yet far enough out that the noise level was good. My family loved the pools, hot tubes and beautiful landscaping on the property. Las Orquideas meals were amazing - the daily breakfasts included and the occasional supper we splurged on. The evening server, Esteban, was so friendly and helpful supporting us with local attractions and places he personally recommends or knows the tourists enjoy. Staff were available till 10pm to help and were constantly cleaning and landscaping the grounds/rooms. We enjoyed Las Orquideas that we would totally go back if we are in the La Fortuna area.

The grounds are very beautiful. That was probably the best part for me.
Our room left some to be desired. Whim comfortable enough it could definitely use some renovations. Our view was of the laundry are in the back of the office building.breakfast had only 2 options but it was sufficient.

While walking distance to town it's a good 20 minutes so keep in mind for rainy or really hot days.

Best part was definitely the pools(clean) and grounds which has beautiful plant life and birds. Staff was friendly and nice too. For the price this hotel was sufficient.

Wow, just wow! This hotel exceeded my expectations. Grounds are gorgeous! The sound of the river and the rainforest while lounging in the pools felt like heaven. The pool area is beautiful. The restraunt and staff top notch. El Salto swing a 5 minute walk away. This is where you want to stay. We will be back.

We loved our stay. The grounds were beautiful and we enjoyed the pool. Liked having a restaurant on the property and how close it was to town, yet secluded and quiet. Highly recommend.

Also recommend Pure Trek for canyoning and Arenal Mundo Adventura for Zip Line.

Wished the kitchenette was more equipped with utensils for cooking like large spoon, spatula, mixing bowl, knife, etc.

Our room was very large and the bed was comfortable. Overall the rooms are quite dated but it was clean. The hotel staff were very friendly and accommodating. We arrived early and they allowed us to store our bags and use the pool while we waited for our room. The breakfast was good and substantial and our dinner there was excellent. There was no safe in our room which we would have appreciated. The grounds were absolutely stunning and well cared for. Overall, it was a nice stay.

They put a lot of money in making the resort presentable (plants, landscaping, pool, jacuzzi), but the room lacks basic necessities - NO PLACE to hang clothes. Because La Fortuna rains so often, you definitely will need to hang your stuff to dry, and there wasn't even a hanger or a closet. We finally had to ask for 2 lawn chairs.
Water service also stopped with no warning at least 3 times (though each time didn't last too long) during the short stay (3 days) we had there.

Grounds are way more beautiful and lush than the pictures show. Pool area has cool and warm and hot pools. AC in the room was nice and cold. Excellent water pressure and hot water in the shower. Front desk helped us contact the rafting and chocolate activities we did. Location is 5 minute walk from the El Salto rope swing. A few minutes driving to get to the center of La Fortuna. Close to everything but just off the main road so very quiet - you don't hear any traffic - just the birdsong. There is also a rushing waterfall and river on the back of the property that made a beautiful soothing background noise. There is no closet/hangers or way to hang up wet things (or towels) unless you bring your own hooks/clothesline, which we did. Brought simple plastic over-the-door hooks which were lifesavers. Put the clothesline outside but nothing really dries unless it is in the direct blazing sun or inside away from the humidity.

I stayed 7 nights at the resort, it was beautifully landscaped,

restaurant staff, was great very attentive at the restaurant and brought drinks to the pool, food was above par and fast.

Cons: our bathroom didn't work for 4 nights out of our stay. having two kids, my Mother in Law, made it very inconvenient to have to walk down to the restaurant to use the bathroom for 4 days was ridiculous, morning and night. Telling hotel staff, seemed to bother them.

Hot tubs were warm for the first 3 days, finally by the last 4 nights they were HOT. BE AWARE THAT YOU GET ONE POOL TOWEL PER PERSON PER DAY, no exceptions.. going in the pool in the morning you have to use the same towel if you go in again at night, no exchanges. and really no where to hang them to dry. seemed little excessive with kids.

Restaurant: MENU VERY OUTDATED, didn't match pics

The hotel mattresses and furniture were super hard and outdated, really in a \"house\" they need more sitting options that are more comfy.

they did accommodate us with an extra mattress for our babies to sleep on the floor next to us.

I tried to communicate with the manager to address the toilet issue to help in a finical discount for the inconvenience but haven't heard anything from them since we checked out late, 5, assuming they don't care..

Beautiful place and close to town are a plus

breakfast had 3 of the same options every morning, idk know why they couldn't' offer something different when your there for a week, it got old

The property was very nice and the service was excellent. A few things to know about the property:

1) the grounds are stunning and much nicer than he Expedia pictures. Very lush gardens leading you to both the pool area and the restaurant.

2) very good parking so no issues there.

3) they include free breakfast which very nice and tasty and the service at the restaurant was excellent. One night we chose to eat dinner there as well and the food and service were also very good.

4) the property is about a three minute drive from the centre of town so easy to get anywhere. Since parking is not that easy downtown, we chose to take uber which was about $4

5! My only small complaint is that the rooms are very basic. We had a room with two queen beds but there is no room for storage, no shelving for clo tub es and no hooks for towels.

Overall, great place to stay and would stay here again.

I got the two bedroom and our rental smelled moldy and the wall had black mold. I told them about it but we didn’t have a choice because they said they had no more rooms available. Also, at check-in they put a $100 hold for deposit and said it would be released at check out time. They never released it, I called several times. I got the runaround for three days and kept telling me that I would get a call back and that they did not know why it wasn’t returned. I never got a call back. I had to dispute the transaction with my bank.

This Hotel was lovely! The tropical property was lushly landscaped and well-maintained. The restaurant area was open-air, service was efficient, and the food was good! Breakfast was enjoyed by the whole family. We also utilized the pool and admired the wildlife. The room was spotless and huge. Staff was very nice and let us store luggage on our last day and have late check out.

We took Ubers to town and activities and they were readily available and reasonably priced. El Salto rope swing was nearby, which my boys loved.

Overall It was a very comfortable and pleasant stay and it was a fantastic value. Recommend!

The property was very pretty with the gardens. The restaurant had great food choices and they were delicious. The staff was very accommodating. The pools were nice, but the main hot tub was never available to us (empty for most of the days and not heated when full). The rooms seem like they are still being finished. It would be nice to have a coffee table and have the refrigerator on top of a cabinet for storing food. It would be nice to have curtains over the kitchen sink, as people outside can see into one of the bedrooms. It would be nice to have cooking implements (like a spatula) and coffee filters to go with the coffee maker. It would be nice to have end tables on both sides of the bed, and have electricity wired to both of them. We made do with our extension cords and the extra chairs. Still, we would stay here again.

This property exceeded my expectations and their photos do not do it justice! We realized we were booking a more budget hotel, but the property and service was incredible. Rooms were very basic but comfortable beds and great AC. There is very minimal storage in the room but we brought a few hooks and it was fine. The pools are gorgeous but the hot tubs could be warmer. Restaurant was so good, I loved the grilled chicken and guaro sours were the best we had in Costa Rica. We noticed a tour place right next store but had already booked our tours through another company. Property is just on the outskirts of town, could be walkable depending on if you are ok walking 10 minutes or so. El Salto is a free swimming hole with a rope swing and maybe a 3 minute walk. My only recommendation is to make the lobby more visible. We arrived at night and had a hard time finding it since there wasn’t a sign. We had a fabulous stay and will definitely be back!!!

Our casita was like a duplex casita whereby we could hear our immediate neighbors snoring, coughing, and talking because of thin walls. There was no doorknob on our door, where the key was required to either open or close/lock the door. In the casita there were no face cloths or dish cloths even though there is a kitchenette. On the showerhead there was an electrical wire going to the showerhead with exposed wires, so we did not have a shower.

Fantastic garden and pools

The grounds and pool were very pretty and well maintained. Loved the little bubbling brook through the garden. The free breakfast had 3 choices that were all yummy. If you plan to cook in your kitchen there is a hot plate, microwave and coffee pot. Very limited kitchen but doable. Only complaint was no curtain over kitchen window so could not walk from bedroom to bathroom without being seen. Had to throw clothing on to go to bathroom or give the suites across the walkway a show. Good value god your money.
