Hotels in La FortunaA small, family-run 3-star bungalow stay in rural Chachagua
8.7/10
A strong rainforest pick for personal hospitality, provided you bring a car.
This small, family-run 3-star bungalow stay in Chachagua is a strong pick for travelers who prefer greenery and personal attention to resort polish. Expedia and Tripadvisor guests repeatedly praise the welcoming hosts, comfortable beds and clean cabins; recent reviews also describe toucans and iguanas visible from the decks. Private terrace tubs add appeal, and breakfast and parking are included. We'd choose it for a relaxed, nature-focused base rather than downtown convenience.
The trade-offs are practical: guests commonly report a 20–25-minute drive to La Fortuna, steep access and limited space or clothes storage in some cabins. Several also say the tubs heat slowly or never get particularly hot, while breakfast draws mixed feedback. We'd skip it without a car, with mobility limitations, or if reliably hot soaking water is central to the trip.
