Awesome hotel
Private jacuzzi and backyard
9.3
We loved the private backyard of the room. It feels like there's only your room and the jungle. We had a junior suite and it had a private jacuzzi and 2 rocking chairs in the backyard, a huge bathroom with a regular shower and a waterfall-like shower. The staff was great. Awesome wet-bar: The guaro sour I had here was the best in the whole Costa Rica trip.
Restaurant Tip:
Try the guaro sour at the wet bar.

Mountain Pardise
Volcano view, natural beauty, nice sized rooms
7
This property is beautiful regarding the volcano view and plantlife. Heated pool was nice. You are in close proximity to the local town, many restaurants, volcano, hot springs. Overall the staff was cordial except for the restaurant waiters. Watch out for the golfcart drivers! This hotel property is ideally situated. Rooms are large. The only difficulty was finding the proper signage off of the main road.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
You can find free hot springs under a bridge off of the main road.

Beautiful hotel, with amazing views.
Views, lovely rooms, good breakfast.
8
We stayed at Mountain Paradise for 6 nights, and really enjoyed it. The room was spacious, with an attractive, king size bed, and a choice of two showers... we preferred the waterfall shower, it's a really nice feature.
The hotel grounds are lovely, and all the plants and flowers attract lots of birds, especially humming birds. We had a frog outside our room one night, and some lizards would bask just round the corner or our room each day. We saw an iguana at the pool on the last day that we were there, and several times spotted a basilisk there as well. A blue and gold macaw came to visit one morning too. It's a good choice of hotel if you like wildlife.
The spa bath on the terrace was nice, to relax in after our adventurous days, but unfortunately, it didn't work very well, and although the jets made the water move a little, they were not strong enough to make any bubbles, so it was more like a normal bath really.
The power shower had four massage jets on it, but only two of them worked, which made it quite pointless to use. Very glad there was the waterfall shower as an alternative.
My lamp also did not work.
The staff tried to be attentive, but sometimes needed asking twice before things got done.
The breakfast was good, but some days it was a buffet, and others it was a set menu.
The worst thing about the place was the shuttle. It is supposed to go at set times, but we used it on three different days, and it never went on time. Also, it often took a detour, to drop off staff or guests at different spots, and once, when we were half way back to the hotel, it stopped at a supermarket, picked up some people (not sure if they were guests or not), and they wanted to go into town, so the driver turned round and when back into town, before taking us back to the hotel! Very frustrating when you have plans.
The plus points definitely outweigh the negatives here, and I would not hesitate to stay there again.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
There are lots of things to do in the area, so I recommend staying more at least a few days. We did a trip to Cano Negro, which was really good, and the canyoning was so much fun!
I would advise against the horse riding trip to the waterfall. We were told we would be riding for 2 hours, and in fact it was about 40 minutes! Also, my horse really struggled with the trek. I felt really bad for him. The reins were made of rope, and had made his nose sore too.
The ecological park near the hotel is worth a visit. The guides are very enthusiastic and informative.
Also worth mentioning that the associated restaurant, Koita, although a bit pricey, does do some very nice food.

Found this luxurious property on the internet and was overwhelmed by it's charm and beauty. The rooms were spaciously designed to make you feel right at home with everything done first class. With 2 5 star restaurants, a delightful spa, elegant surroundings and a very helpful staff, who could ask for more. Would recommend highly to any one looking for a great hideaway.

Be prepared for an excellent exciting adventure

Great hotel, large rooms, clean
i love the location, cleanliness of the rooms, pleasant staff

our stay at the hotel mountain paradise was absolutely great !
the staff was so nice without exceptions. thank you johan, the bar tender at the pool bar for a great service and great music.
the hotel room was great, very roomy, with one king bed and one queen bed. each room has its own view to the garden and jacuzzi tub, which you probably won't use because the pool area is so nice to hang around.
the only negative thing about this room was that it didn't have a refrigerator or microwave...
the complementary buffet breakfast was great, lots of food, included hot dishes. i would return to this hotel anytime, and would choose it over crowded , overpriced baldi hotel anytime.

Wonderful Place!
Boutique atmosphere, all detached suites, great staff
9.7
We booked a Premium Suite but found that the view was blocked by the many plants that had grown up in the garden outside our suite. So we upgraded to a Master Suite. We had our own pool and an amazing view of Arenal volcano.
Travel tip:
Go during the "Green" (off) season if you can. The hotel and the entire area is uncrowded and very laid back. For an excellent meal at a great price, eat at Soda Ara in La Fortuna.

Crazy bathroom
Huge huge bathroom, nice pool, resort feel
8.3
ok the bathroom is seriously crazy. it is about the size of an apartment, with two shower areas - one a waterfall feature complete with fake rocks and plants. the resort was not quite what we expected- it reminded us of a cheesy disneyland but without mickey. the grounds are nicely kept with beautiful tropical flowers, and cars have to be parked at the front so you either walk or ride the golf cart to your suite. the rooms (like the bathroom) are huge but tackily decorated. the individual outdoor jacuzzi tubs with views of the volcano are a nice touch, but i can't see any guests actually using them because the rooms are ground level so other guests could literally walk up to you while you were sitting in your jacuzzi.
for the price ($ a night), can't complain. it was an interesting experience.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
The volcano does not glow anymore

The resort was fantastiic!!. We were so enthralled by the view of the volcano and the beautiful grounds at the resort. The staff was attentive and our accomodations were top notch. The waterfall shower was an amazing experience. The breakfast choices were abundant and the choices were healthy and delicious. We highly recommend Mountain Paradise.
