Casa Luna Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent
"The room was very clean and the balcony was great with a table in chairs. My recommendation would be for the hotel to add a table and chair in the room itself because the only place to put stuff was on the bed. The breakfast was great and the restaurant was great as well for dinner, which came in handy during a rainstorm (which happens in the rainforest). The staff was great. We booked several excursions through Casa Luna and our hot springs visit was great and a great value because it included dinner. Our rafting trip was spectacular and was very convenient with transportation included. Overall I would recommend Casa Luna as a wonderful mid-priced option I. La Fortuna."

"My Granddaughter become sick while there. We had booked a tour that you were supposed to cancel 24 hours before. The morning of, we called the hotel to let them know we could not do the tour. The woman at reception said she would contact the tour company and try to get our money refunded. She did get out money back.
