I had an incredible stay at this hotel! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and cared for. Camila at the front desk stood out for her exceptional service—she was incredibly helpful, offering great advice on local activities and ensuring everything was perfect for our visit. Ana at reception was also very kind and attentive, adding to the overall positive experience. The service throughout our stay was excellent. The restaurant deserves special praise—everything we tried was delicious, especially the pumpkin cream. The live music added a wonderful touch to the evenings, and breakfast was simply amazing. The Eggs Benedict, fresh fruit, and coffee were the perfect start to the day. A big thanks to Joseph, Jay, and the dinner servers, Eric and Melany, who were all so kind and attentive. We also treated ourselves to the tropical massage package, which was exceptional. Rachel was outstanding—the facial and overall service were thorough and relaxing. The Jacuzzi added a nice touch to our spa day. Overall, the experience was unforgettable. I highly recommend tifakara hotel for its fantastic staff, great food, and relaxing amenities.

Ti-fakara hotel was fantastic. The service at the hotel was outstanding. Our air conditioner stopped working in the middle of the night and a repair man was sent immediately to fix it! Breakfast was wonderful with hot options, fresh fruit and juice, and buffet style continental options. Dinner at Bosque was the best meal we had in La Fortuna. The hotel is near the falls an oOn a clear day you can see Arenal from the restaurant and pool area. The only downfall was that the rooms are quite small. If you need space, I would recommend booking a room with two queens even if you dont need both beds. Overall we had a great stay!!

Property is new feeling and very clean. All the staff went above and beyond. Lots of frogs on property to see and they do night tours. I didn’t like that the pool was right in front of the restaurant and check in area. Besides the restaurant and frogs, there’s not much to do at this property. But overall great place and amazing staff

Hotel left me conflicted. On the one hand, it had a great frog tour on the property , fantastic service, and a location which is walking distance to the waterfall. On the other hand, the room was too small and offered to little privacy for a ~$300 price point. Noise was an issue (my partner and I were woken up to the sound of a pressure washer) and the food was just ok. If you need a place for a day or two which is within walking distance to the waterfall, this is one of the few options available and I'd still consider it for that. For anything else, I'd struggle to recommend this hotel given the plethora of excellent options available in La Fortuna.

This hotel is wonderful! Surrounded by jungle with great views of the Arenal volcano. The rooms are very nice and clean, comfortable. The staff is absolutely wonderful, very kind and genuine. Joshua and Randel was very helpful. Their restaurant offers great breakfast and dinner menu. Food was delicious! You must join the night tour of their frog sanctuary. This place was a highlight of our trip!

Ti-kafara is a beautiful property nestled into the mountains by Arenal volcano. The flora and fauna were amazing. There were tropical flowers everywhere we looked and the birds were plentiful. We had a fun night time frog walk led by Kevin which we enjoyed a lot. The breakfasts were great with fresh fruit and a great assortment of meals offered. We also ate at the on site restaurant several times and it was delicious. We had a semi-outdoor shower which was amazing. We loved our stay here!

I cannot rave enough about Ti-Fakara. Honestly the best service, the warmest hospitality, and some of the best hotel food I’ve ever had. I’ll get the room description out of the way. We had a larger room, two full/queen beds. The hotel is set up as 18 rooms surrounding the reception/restaurant/pool area. There’s a refrigerator and an AC unit. The bathroom is very humid due to the outside shower. Now… if you want to be one with nature (and all of her bugs and lizards) this is quite nice. We did not! Our fault, we thought we picked a room with an enclosed shower. Due to this, our room had frequent bugs and gecko visitors. The staff are so wonderful. They installed a tarp over our shower and removed some friendly critters for us, too. Everyone is truly just so warm, welcoming and friendly. The gardeners caught me walking back to my room and asked if I wanted to see a frog he just spotted. They offer nature walks throughout their two hotels (Noah and Tifakara). The breakfast, which is included, is cooked to order. Freshly baked goods, fruit juices, fantastic coffee, and even your own personal coconut to drink out of! The restaurant on site, La Bosque, has really delicious meals for dinner. It’s nice to have this option since it’s very difficult to get around La Fortuna without a vehicle. There’s so many personal touches throughout that would make this review toooo long so I’ll just say, if you’re wanting to stay in La Fortuna, please make it a point to stay here.
