This is a lovely typical Costa Rican hotel with beautiful landscaping and a wonderful restaurant. Staff was so nice and helpful. Beds are comfortable and food very good. It is about 40 km from the airport so a perfect stop after a long flight. We have stayed here more than once.

Our junior suite was a great room, with lots of space. Unfortunately it was infested with flying ants on the walls. There was also an animal living in the ceiling, and black fecese continually fell onto our bed. They did not have any of the same room types for us to switch into, so we stuck it out for the night.
These rooms are tucked back quite a ways from the reception , but they end up very close to the highway. So we heard continual noise from passing cars. We were also disappointed in the restaurant, both for breakfast and dinner. The warm yogurt with fruit ended up making me sick afterwards. The dinner food was ok, but the service was almost non-existent. Overall, I was quite disappointed in our experience.

The staff was so nice. Our family booked the villa and it was lovely and right next to the beautiful pool. The restaurant has a nice menu. I highly recommend this hotel if you are traveling from Fortuna back to Iberia airport. It’s a perfect stopping point for an overnight to relax before a travel day and it is only about 45 minutes from the airport.

We arrived right as it got dark. Check in went quick. We stayed here one night to avoid too much driving in one day. We stayed in a little cabin back in the woods. The sliding doors in the room didn’t completely close and it felt like we had a lot of bugs visiting us. Many ants on the floor, woke up to a scorpion in the sink. That said, we are in Costa Rica and some of that is to be expected and we are okay with that. I think next time we need to stay in Liberia and a place with more people around. I was nervous the whole night and didn’t sleep well. The main door did lock. It was the sliding door that made me nervous.
I did get a fruit plate and gallo pinto and both were delicious:)
we arrived at 6pm and checked out by 8am so we didn’t spend much time looking around. Breakfast was $9 each, so reasonable, but I misunderstood and thought it was a buffet and it wasn’t so that was my fault. Overall, although the staff was nice, we most likely won’t be back.

A little gem

Stayed here as a convenient stop on route, but it exceeded our expectations. Although just off the main highway, Hacienda La Pacifica has a lovely setting. Its so quiet and tranquil, with our superior room more like a rustic cabin set amongst the trees. It was a good size and very clean and comfortable with a nice bathroom and large shower area offering plenty of hot water. There was a private terrace at the back with rocking chairs where we sat and watched an abundance of wildlife. There is an inviting, well maintained pool too. The restaurant is lovely, with both inside and outside seating. We enjoyed the included breakfast and had dinner here too, which was also very good with ample choice. Having the white tailed deer visit as we ate was an added highlight. The staff were also very friendly and accommodating. We're glad we found this place. Just a short walk away is Las Pumas animal rescue centre, which is well worth a visit. They do such good work and we learned a lot from one of the rehabilitation staff who enthusiastically guided us around the facility.
