Beautiful place for a couple.
Enjoyed our overnight stay here. Absolutely beautiful design. Convenient location though it could really benefit from a sign near the road. Took us a few attempts to locate the entrance in the dark but once we did they whole property was a lovely surprise of beautiful design. Extremely comfortable bed and pillows! American and Dutch couple! Fairly private as well which was nice.

The private hot tub was the highlight. Clean, heated, accessible. Beautiful shower, comfortable room. Convenient location. A bit off the main drag, which was a big plus but would be a negative if we didn't have a rental car. Highly recommended.

Outstanding!
Beautiful facilities, relaxing atmosphere, modern decor, comfortable beds, and great location. This was much nicer than even the most expensive hotels we have stayed in. You get a feeling of privacy, which you never have in a hotel.

New hotel in la fortuna with a volcano view
Loved this hotel. Pretty centrally located only a $3 uber ride from the town center. We walked over to the North Fields coffee and chocolate tour which was only a few yards away from the hotel. The team was super responsive through WhatsApp to any issues we had. The rooms are so cute with a hot tub right on the patio. The regular rooms have two viewing areas with one facing the volcano, although the access to them is outside, so not ideal when it’s raining but like whatever it’s the jungle. We ended up getting upgraded to the villa which wow. It has a pool and we had a little frog jump in with us. I would definitely stay here again and bring some friends to really appreciate what the villa has to offer…

The property feels brand new. It has the feel of a very nice AirBNB without any of the drawbacks you usually see these days.
BAUMA has excellent housekeeping and responsive service for whatever issues arise. The villa was comfortable and spacious. The private pool was large enough for our family of four to enjoy every evening with Arenal peeking just past the greenery privacy walls. The design and utility of the space is perfect. My kids preferred the hotel to most activities we did in the Fortuna/Arenal area.

We rented the loft and it was exactly as described. It was a conveniently allocated about a 5 minute drive or Uber to La Fortuna. We enjoyed drinking our morning coffee on the upstairs deck and coming home after hiking to use our private jacuzzi.
