Recent Reviews in San Francisco

The Springs Resort and Spa at Arenal

10/10 Excellent

"Had the most amazing stay at Springs Resort. Luxury, ecolodge with plenty of hot springs for adults and pools for kids. Close to adventures . Restaurants on property were delicious ! Will definitely return 💓"

Tifakara by the Waterfall

10/10 Excellent

"Peaceful, unique, and the staff made our stay We stayed at Tifakara for 5 nights. The property is truly unique, and the quiet and peace here are exactly what we were looking for. The staff was amazing. At the front desk, Kevin, Daniela, and Fernanda went above and beyond throughout our stay. In the restaurant, Israel, Orlando, and Carlos were our favorite servers and made every meal feel special. Breakfast was a 20/10, easily one of the highlights of each day. We can't recommend Tifakara enough and hope to be back soon!"

The Royal Corin Thermal Water Spa & Resort - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"I had an amazing stay at The Royal Corin in La Fortuna! The hotel was gorgeous, exceptionally clean, and offered some of the most incredible views. The included breakfast was delicious, with a great selection, and the staff were genuinely friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout our stay. Everything about the experience was wonderful, from the beautiful property to the hospitality. I couldn't have asked for a better place to stay in La Fortuna. I would absolutely recommend The Royal Corin and would love to come back!"

Chachagua Rainforest Hotel & Hot Springs

8/10 Good

"Staff made this place feel like heaven! They are the best! The property is beautifully curated. The rooms are gorgeous with sliding doors opening into the lush green vegetation. I could spend the whole day on the bridge over the stream. They have a small waterfall on the property. The complimentary nature hike in the afternoon was informative, engaging and beautiful. Some of us did the night wildlife tour with the same guide, it was excellent! The water slide was so much fun! We had requested sugar cane juice (they grow their own), they made special arrangements to bring it to us. We truly appreciate that. Mucha Gracias! My only gripe - the "hot water springs" are not real. Water in the pool is heated by heating systems there. They are not natural. While they were still relaxing, its not the same. Not to mention the name is quite misleading. Relatedly, the pools could use a good scrubbing. They were grimy and slippery in places. They could do so much better in the food department. We've tried both restaurants on site, they were just ok. We loved their on "Gallo pinto". All the other breakfast options are American, unhealthy and not well made. They are about 30mins drive from Arenal town, so its not exactly convenient to head out for food."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in San Francisco?

The best area to stay in San Francisco, Alajuela Province, is the central district around the Parque Central de San Francisco.

This area is the heart of the town, offering a convenient base for exploring. It's generally a pleasant place to walk around, with local shops, eateries, and services concentrated around the main square. The park itself is a local landmark, often bustling with community life.

For couples looking for a relaxed yet well-connected stay, this central area is ideal. You'll find a selection of comfortable hotels and guesthouses, and it's easy to access amenities and local transport for day trips to nearby attractions like coffee plantations or the Poás Volcano National Park.

Families will also find this central location practical. With local restaurants and the park close by, there are readily available options for meals and outdoor activities for children.

When is the best time to go to San Francisco?
