Overall Ratings & Reviews Hotel Rancho Cerro Azul

Amazing experience. The grounds were so lush and beautiful. The restaurant was also great- fairly priced and quick. Drinks were soooo delicious. Also overlooks the lush trees and even saw monkeys from here!! Another highlight is the staff. Specifically Kenneth in the bar and Isaac at the restaurant. So friendly, welcoming, helpful and knowledgeable. This is less of a resort feel and more mountain cabin, but still has really great perks like the jacuzzi - we went in every night. Amazing spot!

Es un hotel con mucha naturaleza y jardines bien cuidados. Lo mejor fue como se siente la lluvia en la noche sobre el techo de zinc.

This was our favorite spot that we stayed in Costa Rica and we all wish that we stayed longer. We loved our little cabinita and it was perfect for the 5 of us. The blooming plants along with the walkway was beautiful. The bar was an extra bonus that we really enjoyed - so nice that it was right there on the property. The AC worked great too! Of course it was very nice to relax in the jacuzzi after a long day of travel.

Loved everything about this location

This place was perfect for our family of 4. We loved the back patio with table and mini kitchen. It was beautiful to sit and eat breakfast on the patio watching the hummingbirds in the flowers. The staff was helpful and friendly. They helped us book a couple excursions as well.

Great property right in the middle of La Fortuna. Within 30 mins drive of all the places and things you want to see/do. Beautiful view of the volcano. Friendly staff. Rooms are in very lush vegetation which gives a mystic vibe. Amazing experience all together.

Property was lush and very tropical very private space around the cabins lots of bids and a trail through the woods the bed mattress was pretty firm but other than that the place was very pleasant.

Lots of birds, trees and flowering plants from our front and back porch. Restaurant food was good. The bed was comfortable but furniture and lighting could be improved. Good location with other restaurants either walkable or short drive away.

Nice property.

Loved our stay at Hotel Rancho Cerro Azul. The staff were all super friendly and helpful and the property was beautiful, quiet, and serene.

Amazing hotel! Recommended!

We rented cabin number 9 which is located at the rear of the property and is much more secluded than the other cabins on the property. The best part about this cabin is that it’s not located near the road and it also looks out into the jungle from the rear porch. William in concierge, Kenneth the bartender, and other staff members were great and incredibly helpful. Our cabin was a bit rustic however it provided everything we needed and we enjoyed hearing the sounds of the jungle and river below. The location is good if you don’t want to be in the hustle and bustle of La Fortuna. However you can walk into town which will take you 15/20 minutes each way as a fit individual. The property does have a bar and restaurant on site, a couple other restaurants, and a convenience store that are located on the same street. It’s still close enough to town that all of our excursions were able to pick us up at the property without extra charge. They offer paid laundry which we took advantage of, and we really loved their in house breakfast which is also an extra fee but reasonable. If you want to be off the beaten path a little bit, but still close enough to everything than this is for you. As a heads up the other cabins are closer to the road and I imagine there might be considerable road noise. Its a humble resort for humble people and families in my opinion. We would go back.

I honestly don’t understand how this hotel got such a high rating. I rarely leave bad reviews, but my experience at this hotel was really disappointing. The room was nothing like the photos—small, outdated, and not very clean. The bathroom had a weird smell of urine that didn’t go away. We were so grossed out by the beds that we just slept in our clothes. I brought my wet towels to the front desk and asked for replacements. To my surprise, the owner told me those were the only towels they had! He said he would dry them and have them sent to my room within 30 minutes. Of course, that never happened. I'm still baffled that a hotel doesn’t keep extra towels on hand—it’s honestly unacceptable. I couldn’t wait to check out. Save yourself the trouble and book somewhere else.

Cozy little cabins with great property around. The restaurant right beside it called chante verde has amazing food

Hotel Ranch Cero Azul is a peaceful retreat with charming cabins by a gently flowing river. The serene setting and warm hospitality make it a perfect escape into nature.

Very nice environment and setting of the property. Room is clean but could do better with bathroom facilities.

Very good experience with everything. Staff were helpful and friendly. The bungalows are large and very unique. Close enough to the city but far enough away to feel safe. Great location next to the jungle and the river walk. The Howler monkeys woke us up early each morning but that was part of the whole experience. Very good food at the onsite restaurant as well. We would definitely stay there again.

Good stay and room view is beautiful. The front desk staff are friendly and helped us book tour.

Beautiful property, great location, friendly helpful staff, great price, highly recommend

Friendly staff and very helpful. Bed was comfortable. Room large, but poor lighting. Food was excellent in their restaurant.
