The property is amazing. There are opportunities to see tons of wildlife just from your room or just walking around the trail and even just on the way to the restaurant. The staff were extremely approachable, helpful, and went out of their way to make sure I was having a good time. I came for wildlife photography and many of the staff often pointed out different birds to me and even took me to their favorite spots on the property for wildlife viewing. The concierge service via WhatsApp was also super helpful in booking stuff to do and arranging transportation. Really awesome stay, I was extremely impressed.

We had the most amazing stay at this property! We were absolutely impressed with everything from the courteous staff, the available transportation, the great dining experience, the stunning views, and the lovely and respectful philosophy of the property and its respect for nature and animals. Very close to mistico and tabacon which were the two excursions we explored during our short stay. Highly recommend this location to anyone passing through!!!

We had a Great time at the Lost Iguana. The rooms are simple but clean. The large balcony had an incredible view but could use better furniture for extended sitting and sightseeing birds. The included buffet breakfast was delicious!

We had lots of fun watching the World Cup at the sports bar (food was good and happy hour drinks during the World Cup was appreciated)!

The pool is too cold and the hot tub is too hot. Would be nice if they could adjust the heat on both.

Overall a great stay - I would recommend:)

Lost Iguana Resort & Spa exceeded every expectation. The property is absolutely stunning, surrounded by lush rainforest with incredible views of Arenal Volcano right from the balcony. Waking up each morning with a cup of Costa Rican coffee overlooking the volcano was unforgettable.

What truly made my stay special was the staff. Everyone was welcoming, friendly, and genuinely cared about making my visit memorable. A special thank you to Diego, Yader, Daniel, and Pamela for their outstanding hospitality and kindness throughout my stay. They made me feel right at home.

If you’re visiting La Fortuna, I can’t recommend Lost Iguana Resort & Spa enough. Beautiful property, breathtaking views, amazing food, and exceptional service. I can’t wait to come back!

The property was very unique- literally set in the rainforest! It was so lovely to sit on the patio and hear the birds, watch the hummingbirds, look at the volcano and be at peace. We stayed in the suite deluxe room which was incredible. We especially loved the open air rock shower! The rooms were very comfortable, spacious, and were cleaned daily. The property is quite steep but very doable to walk around if you don’t have any health conditions. The resort offers rides in golf carts at any time if needed to get around. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
The property is beautifully maintained with a number of trails to walk around and enjoy.
We loved the large swim up hot tub and pool with food and bar service available.
The included breakfast in the restaurant was delicious with different fresh items offered daily as well as an egg making station. We ate at the bar and restaurant and found the food to be very good!
As far as the location, it’s about a 25 minute drive from the town of La Fortuna, located minutes from Mistico hanging bridges tour. While some may want to be in the town closer to activities, we found the location to be a major positive. We felt thoroughly immersed in nature and removed from the hustle and bustle of the town. It was super easy to get into town with a car. Overall, we can’t recommend this place enough. It was perfect for our vacation.

Excellent resort situated in an incredible rainforest setting. We are a family of four (kids aged 6 and 8) and everything about our stay at The Lost Iguana was better than expected. The resort is close to all the key attractions in the area, yet tucked away in a tranquil rainforest. We saw countless birds and heard howler monkeys right off our balcony. At night, you can see various types of frogs including red eye tree frogs around the property. This is a a real gem of a resort and one that my family and I cannot wait to come back k to visit.

A special shoutout to the restaurant staff, especially David and Fraritzio, who truly elevated our experience. Their service was exceptional, friendly, and made every meal feel memorable.

The setting is honestly breathing! Surrounded by lush landscape and incredible views of the volcano, you feel completely immersed in nature. You wake up and immediately appreciate how beautiful and peaceful everything is. That said, the location does come with a bit of a trade-off. It’s quite far from town and most excursions, so getting around requires some planning (and time). If you’re hoping to pop in and out easily, this might not be the most convenient option.

The property itself is charming but the rooms are a little dated in terms of decor and overall feel. It didn’t take away from the experience though.

The he only real disappointments was the pool, it’s quite small considering how large the property is, and it felt a bit underwhelming given the otherwise expansive setting.

Also worth noting: be prepared for a workout! The hotel is built into the landscape, so there’s a lot of uphill walking. It adds to the unique character of the place, but definitely bring good shoes and be ready for some stairs and climbs.

Overall, it’s a beautiful, peaceful escape with stunning surroundings—just go in knowing it’s a quiet offset resort from the more touristy area of Fortuna.

This was our second stay at Lost Iguana and it was just as wonderful as the first time. Our room was very spacious, and we especially loved the outdoor shower and the incredible view.

The rooms feel like you’re staying on a private property while still enjoying all the amenities of a great hotel. We traveled with our three children and found it very family-friendly. The restaurants have plenty of food options for kids for both breakfast, lunch, and dinner and they especially loved the pool area.

The location is also fantastic—close to many La Fortuna activities while still feeling quiet and secluded. We would absolutely stay here again.

This is the most beautiful, middle of the rainforest, hotel! The staff was amazingly friendly, the property is beautiful, and the food at the restaurant is very good. A great perk: the hotel has it's own hiking trail 'Puma Trek,\" which has a hanging bridge so you don't even have to leave the property. You can do the trek on your own, or book it at the reception desk, with a guide - I would advise booking it with a guide so you get all the rainforest information and details, and the guide is great at spotting wildlife. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. Each room looks straight out to the Arenal Volcano - it is total peace.

The evening dining has good ambience and the food is delicious. They have internal transport and they are quick to pick you up. We walked from the resort to Mistico hanging bridge. It took us approximately 15 minutes but it is hilly and maybe strenous to some. The resort is 3.5 hours away from SJO but traveling to this place is truly worth the trip.

The only thing I would recommend is having a setting area to eat food at, which you can bring food back from town or order room service.

Rooms were very clean, views were amazing, requesting rides to pool and restaurant was fast and easy. The hot water pool was delightful. Awesome breakfast. Beautiful property and location.

My stay at the Lost Iguana Resort was truly unforgettable. From the moment I arrived, I felt completely immersed in nature—like I had my own private escape in the middle of the rainforest. Waking up to the sounds of the jungle and seeing the Arenal Volcano right from my balcony was honestly magical.

The room was spacious, clean, and felt incredibly cozy, with details that made the whole experience feel special. The staff went above and beyond every single day—always welcoming, helpful, and genuinely friendly. You can really feel that they care about making your stay perfect.

I loved spending time at the pools and walking around the trails on the property. Everything is peaceful, quiet, and beautifully maintained. It’s the kind of place where you can truly disconnect, relax, and just enjoy the moment.

If you’re looking for a place that blends nature, comfort, and amazing service, I absolutely recommend the Lost Iguana Resort. I would go back without hesitation.
