Hotel Secreto La Fortuna was a nice secluded place that was close to the hustle and bustle of town. We only stayed 1 night but wish we had stayed longer. I felt like we were staying in a secret garden. The staff is wonderful and very helpful with our excursions. I would highly recommend a stay here.

Great property 3 blocks from the Main Street Quiet location beautifully maintained gardens and pool. Staff was very helpful. Overall a good experience. This was my second time staying at Secreto La Fortuna. The only downside for me was the mattress was too hard not to firm, but to hard.

Great location right downtown. Walkable to everything. Grounds are beautiful. Mountain View room did not have view from the room but did have a view if you walked out onto the shared balcony. No amenities but good for the price paid.

I can’t say enough about the staff here. Friendly, helpful just an all around pleasant attitude. The grounds are lovely and well kept. The breakfast is very good and the location is walkable to downtown la fortuna. My one complaint is that the walls are very thin which, unfortunately for us, resulted in a prolonged extremely early wake-up when a young child was loudly crying for quite awhile at 3:00 in the morning
