Service is outstanding. All staff were very helpful and friendly at all times

Our stay at Cielo Lodge was absolutely unforgettable and exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel genuinely welcome with their warmth, attentiveness, and willingness to help with anything we needed. Their hospitality truly made the experience extra special. The food was another highlight of our trip — every meal was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The local ingredients and creative dishes gave us a true taste of Costa Rica, and dining with such breathtaking surroundings made it even more memorable. Cielo Lodge offers an amazing variety of activities, making it easy to experience the beauty and adventure of Costa Rica. Whether exploring nature, enjoying guided excursions, or simply relaxing and taking in the scenery, there was always something wonderful to do. The grounds themselves are absolutely gorgeous — lush, peaceful, and immaculately maintained. What truly amazed us was the incredible wildlife surrounding the lodge. We saw colorful birds, monkeys, and so many beautiful animals right in their natural habitat. It felt like being immersed in a tropical paradise. If you are looking for a place that combines luxury, adventure, incredible food, outstanding service, and the superb wildlife of Costa Rica, Cielo Lodge is truly a hidden gem. We cannot wait to return.

It was absolutely gorgeous! Brand new and beautiful

This property is a true oasis. The rooms are top notch with all the amenities. The food is great. We stayed in the Riverside Villa Hideaway. We watched toucans in the trees while enjoying our private hot tub...doesn't get better than that! We were celebrating our anniversary, and the staff made it extra special with champagne and love decorations in our room. They were super friendly and helpful every day. The location is great. We had rented car, so everything was easily within driving distance. Cristel, in reception, made sure we had everything we could possibly need. Oskar was a fabulous bartender, who entertained us with his stories and shared his knowledge of his country. Jeisson was super helpful with our luggage and took the extra time to show us the location of the sloth before we left and shared his expertise of the animals on the property. Rolando and Tatiana were very attentive and had great food suggestions. We will definitely stay here again if ever in the area!

Amazing place to stay in La Fortuna. It’s absolutely gorgeous and the amenities and location make it very worthwhile. The included breakfast was amazing. And the staff were exceptional! We can’t wait to come back.
