if you want to be in the middle of nature then this certainly your place. Don't forget earplugs if you are a difficult sleeper because it can get noisy a bit once it turns into night :-) Also the staff is very friendly, they arranged for us the cacao tour with a local family and business but also gave us pointers on things to see on our trip through Costa Rica.

We stayed a week and wish it was longer! The people here made this one of our favorite family vacations. There was so much to do in the area (hiking, sloths, hot springs, volcano, rain forest etc). The food at the hotel was wonderful! Loved the breakfasts with fresh fruit and juices. Everything was made from scratch. We are vegetarian and they had no trouble accommodating us. They checked daily to see what time we wanted to eat. My college age kids didn't want to eat anywhere else. Coffee was fabulous! Luis is a wonderful chef! Giovanni is extremely nice and made us feel at home. He helped us plan our activities and booked several things for us. All of his recommendations were spot on. My kids enjoyed the pool and the excellent wifi.

Hotel Secreto is fantastic! Excellent value, central location, rooms are spotless and very comfortable. All the staff were so friendly and helpful. We had a room with a beautiful volcano view, and spent hours floating in the pool looking up at Arenal. The garden is lovely, lots of hummingbirds and butterflies, as well as Dany the sloth!

The place was in an ideal location for us, just around the corner from Adobe car rental and our morning shuttle bus to the airport. Good communication from the owner who provided us with clear, precise instructions about how to access the property. Secure parking in front of to the property. Good value for money.

This exceeded our expectations! From the friendly arrival (with coco loco!) to the jacuzzi, the friendly & efficient cleaning staff, and the excellent communication, our stay was perfect. Such comfortable beds! We also loved sitting outside and watching the hummingbirds buzzing around the garden. Location close to the main square with easy access to restaurants and shops. There is a small mini fridge and coffee maker in the room, and the spotless shared kitchen has everything else you need.

Perfect location close to the airport. We were starting our Nomad America trip and this place was close by and allowed us to do our chores etc before going. Highly recommend this place for those on a budget looking for a clean, comfortable, friendly place in a good spot to be close to the airport and in walking distance of shops/restaurants
