We had the best time staying at Noahs Forest. The staff were very freindly and helpful and always took the time to check on you. We loved the facilities especially the pool and ping pong tables, as well as the jacuzzi in the room. Everything was very clean and the best possible standard. Thank you for finding the sloths everyday, we'd never of managed without the helpfully positioned telescope and map! Special shout out to anna for organising the frog tour and always smiling with the best energy. Muchas Gracias!

This was truly a five-star experience. The rooms are gorgeous, And the grounds are luxurious and well landscaped. And to be able to see multiple sloths and animals on the property without having to leave or pay for a tour is tremendous! There was a sloth outside the breakfast area our last morning. What a special treat. .Anna, Sol, Kevin, Adrian, Charlie, Allen, Allan, Modesto, every single person on staff is professional, courteous and friendly and willing to help at any time. The property offers a complimentary nature walk on site as well as a complimentary night tour on their sister property, these are tremendous and such great values and pretty much were better than anything. We ended up paying for the rest of our trip. Highly recommend This property I can't say enough about it

Unforgettable stay at Noah’s Forest. Gorgeous location, super comfortable, and close to everything while offering the privacy and relaxed environment we were looking for. The service is incredible, and they truly go above and beyond to make your stay something special. Anna, Sol, and Allan offered the best experience for us; thank you so much for all the surprises and gestures. Special shout-out to Henry for all his attentiveness to our toddler at the restaurant. Highly recommend to anyone visiting La Fortuna, CR.

10/10 we loved our honeymoon here.
My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and we absolutely loved it! The staff was so friendly and kind. We loved our room and how it was surrounded by plants. We got to see sloths in the morning on our walk to the restaurant for breakfast. The breakfast was great as well. We also booked a couples massage and the receptionist helped us with it and got it booked. Overall we highly recommend to stay here

We really loved the quiet and the privacy every room offers. Wonderful breakfast and ambients. Perfect for couple on honey moon or celebrations. The staff were amazingly helpful to us. We had to set up a phone card and they helped us until we solved the problem. I was however disappointed when the manager didn’t refund us the last two nights of our stay since we had to leave due to Milton hurricane in florida. They didn’t approved our refund even if our circumstance was an emergency. When I arrived at home and be approved by Expedia, I tried to call the hotel several times but they hang up on my call and sent me a message in WhatsApp instead denying the refund. I understand we book with third party Expedia but they only needed the approval from Noah’s hotel to refund us. It didn’t happen. With this being said I’d go there again because I loved the hotel.

Si pudiera darle una estrella más se la daría , este lugar es un sueño. Costa Rica es como dicen Pura Vida. El hotel , el servicio , las personas. Yo quería abrazarlos a todos. El desayuno es excepcional los cocineros cocinan con amor y los meseros siempre están felices. No tengo una sola queja que pueda mencionar. Kevin nos ayudó cuando llegamos y además nos dio un tour en la noche con mucho conocimiento. Definitivamente regresaré con mi familia !!!

The people at Noah’s forest were the nicest people we met they go out of their way to make sure everything is just perfect for you. We had the pleasure of making friends with a man who allowed us to look thru his telescope and see sloths and iguana sitting on the branches on the property you will be more than happy that you chose to stay at Noah’s forest

Vibes are unmatched
Our stay was absolutely phenomenal. We were greeted at reception with excellent service. The room was fantastic. Upon arrival we were surprised with a complimentary bottle of champagne and a thoughtful note congratulating us on our anniversary. The room itself was perfect, the bed and sheets were one of the most comfortable we have slept in, it was like sleeping on a cloud. Housekeeping was pristine. Mariluz was our housekeeper for the duration of our stay and she did an amazing job, we came back to different towel animals in our clean room daily which was a sweet gesture. The towels and robes were all very clean. The private jacuzzi in each bungalow was spectacular. After a days adventure hiking the waterfall it was so nice coming back to our own private jacuzzi to relax. The atmosphere of the hotel itself is very tranquil, relaxing, and beautiful. We felt very well taken care of, all of the staff were friendly and attentive. Jay and Erick were some of the staff members we interacted with the most and they were very kind, helpful and personable. The property was stunning and very well maintained. Our experience here was so great the other stays we had after this one seemed lacking compared to Noahs. Definitely will be coming back here next time im in Costa Rica. If you are reading this review and are contemplating selecting this hotel, i hope you do, so that you get to experience the outstanding hospitality and ambiance we did during our stay.

We absolutely loved our stay. It was our best day in all Costa Rica. The property is absolutely gorgeous and it feels like you are in the middle of the jungle staying in luxury. But the absolute best part of this resort is the staff. We have travelled to many places and it is by far the best service we have ever experienced! Allan at the front desk is absolutely the best! We just want to keep sending him WhatsApp Messages because we miss talking to him every day. All of the bar and restaurants were fantastic… And the drinks and food were good too!

Stay at Noah’s
We had an amazing experience at Noah’s. Wow! We had a large room with a private hot tub. The pool was perfect and the kids loved the billiards table and hot chocolate machine. This is a private, relaxing place to stay with live music in the restaurant in the evenings. Wonderful food. Excellent service. Can’t recommend this enough!
