It was the first time traveling as a family of 5 (our kids are ages 4, 3 and 8mos) and they were very welcoming and made our stay very comfortable. Everyone there was very friendly. The breakfast is great. A nice property and a great price. We forgot our passports there and they were so nice to bring it to... More

We stayed at Kokoro in May of 2013 and were so impressed! The staff made the hotel spectacular as they went out of their way to help in any way possible. Definitely recommend this hotel, Fernando is the best! The only downside is it the location as it costs about $8-10 each way to get downtown.

We were so pleased with our visit to Hotel Kokoro! The staff was super-friendly and knowledgable and helped us immensely with choosing, and coordinating our excursions- all of which were excellent! The breakfast was fresh, very delicious and huge, with exceptional service. The coffee was the best we have had in CR...beautiful grounds, pool and thermal springs... We are so... More

The reception desk guys were amazingly welcoming, knowledgeable, and patient as we asked them question after question after question. For our canopy tour, we... More

My friends and I only had the opportunity to stay here one night but it was well worth it! Friendly staff and very well appointed rooms (with a great view from the patio!), Great value here and a very quick drive to Arenal. Highly recommend.

Kokoro was by far the best hotel I've ever stayed at (even better than any 5 star resort) because of the entire experience! The people are what makes it the best! They go above and beyond to make your stay feel comfortable and like you are family. They help you book tours and have great recommendations for what to do... More

This lodge has it all! Great rooms at affordable prices. Located on an amazing piece of property with tons of animals! Great for families. When in La Fortuna, you have to ask for a tour with Giovanni. He is a local tour guide who knows when and where to find any animals! His tour is just amazing! And very affordable.

We just returned from an incredible 10 day Costa Rica trip (Arenal, Monteverde, Manuel Antonio) planned through Catalina at CR Referrals (highly recommended). We are a family of 3 including our adult daughter. We were looking for nice but not extravagant hotels with a spacious room to accommodate the 3 of us. Plus an additional challenge of Easter week and... More
