"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Stay in La Fortuna! We had an amazing stay at Magic Mountain Hotel! The location is beautiful, with an incredible view of the Arenal Volcano. The hotel has nice pools and hot tubs, which were perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring La Fortuna. Breakfast was included and was one of our favorite parts! It’s a buffet with plenty of options, including delicious traditional Costa Rican food, fresh fruit, and made-to-order omelets prepared right in front of you. We also really enjoyed Happy Hour! The drinks were delicious, reasonably priced, and the 2-for-1 special was definitely a plus! 🍹😄 Our room was very clean and comfortable, the bathroom was spotless, and the room service was great. The staff provided excellent service throughout our stay and made us feel very welcome. We had such a great experience and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended if you’re visiting La Fortuna! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Santa Clara?

You'll find local shops, restaurants, and services clustered around the park and along the main streets like Avenida 1 and Calle Central. It's a busy spot where daily life unfolds, offering a practical base for exploring.For travellers interested in local culture and convenience, staying near the Central Park is ideal.

When is the best time to go to Santa Clara?
