10/10 Exceptional

We had an incredible stay at Tifakara! We would love to return the next time we visit Costa Rica. The property was far more beautiful, spotless, and magical than we expected, and every part of the experience exceeded our expectations. The staff was exceptionally friendly and welcoming, and their service made our stay even more memorable. Special thanks to Kevin, who helped us with check-in, for being exceptionally professional and kind. And to Antonio, who took care of us at the restaurant, for being incredibly kind and attentive, and for providing truly exceptional service. We want to thank him sincerely for making our mornings so wonderful.

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and we were blown away. This is a gorgeous property with an excellent restaurant. Everyone on staff was amazing (Lucy, Kevin, Hansel, Rey, Jay, Jaimer). The stay was relaxing, the room was comfortable and the food at Bosque restaurant was exceptional. The hotel is located close to many local attractions plus the free frog tour on property every night is a must do. We highly recommend a stay here.

Great location, walking distance from La Fortuna waterfall, short drive to downtown. Good amenities, good food, very friendly & helpful staff. Well appointed, clean rooms. Kevin’s frog tour was a highlight for us! Definitely recommend.

10/10 Exceptional

Truly one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. The staff are friendly and make you feel at home from the moment you arrive. Impeccable service throughout our stay from everyone we had contact with. Attention to detail throughout the hotel and the little touches really made our stay. Rooms are modern and clean - we had a superior room with a jacuzzi on the balcony overlooking the forest. Food was outstanding - both breakfast and in the evening (it was so good we didn’t feel the need to venture out). The night walk was such fun. This hotel is an absolute gem. We would love to go back one day.
