Where do I even start!? The staff, hands down, make this place a gem. Lucy greeted us and welcomed us with a warm smile and very kind demeanor. Arlen delivered room service in the pouring rain on our first night after a super long travel day. They are expanding and improving the property so there was a little construction and temporary fixes in place while the property was being improved and it didn’t bother us one bit. The location is phenomenal, easy access to everything. The grounds are immaculately kept. Plenty of places to lounge around. It’s also very private and romantic. I have not one bad thing to say about Noah’s Forest. With so many places to stay, I’m glad we chose to stay here and would stay there again on future visits. Lucy, Arlen, ChiChi, Eric, Kevin and the rest of the team go above and beyond to make sure you are taken care of. Thank you for making this trip unforgettable! Pura Vida!!
Kevin took us on a night tour. He is full of in depth knowledge of the local wildlife.
Kevin made sure we got great shots of the amazing night creatures of the rainforest

We loved our stay at Noah’s Forest. The property is beautiful. The food and employees at the restaurant were great and they had the most amazing orange ginger ice cream. We sat outside on our patio and listened to the noise of the forest every morning and every evening. The entire staff went out of their way to be friendly and helpful. They helped us with everywhere we wanted to go. We would highly recommend Noah’s Forest and we will definitely be staying there next year when we go back to the Arenal area.

This place is really sweet to stay at it’s about 5-10 minute drive from the center of La Fortuna you can definitely walk as well. It’s very convenient and the staff is so wonderful they will make anything happen for you so it’s just nice to feel welcomed and acknowledged. The surrounding area is quiet although it’s close to the center where’s there a lot of people you stay in an area that’s really quiet. The rooms themselves are beautiful as well. And very well kept this hotel does great upkeep on their property
