Tifakara Boutique Hotel & Birding Oasis

I loved my stay at the hotel. The local area and hotel grounds are simply beautiful. Quick walk to La Fortuna Waterfall; Yummy breakfast. The workers/receptionists were very nice. Orlando was very helpful. The only issue I have is that the sliding door to my room was rather wonky. The bottom section was very hard to open and close, other than that, I would stay again.

The service was great, both at the reception and the restaurant, the lodge was excellent (apart from the shower door which is extremely heavy) right in the middle of a birding spot, the outdoor shower was a lovely feature, the location was excellent (5 minute walk to the most famous waterfall in that area), nice and quiet surrounding in the middle of the jungle, they went out of their way to make our meals vegetarian friendly, breakfast was very good.

Hôtel situé proche du centre (5’ en voiture) et à 1/2 heure du volcan. Immergé dans un écrin de verdure où nous avons vu différents animaux ( paresseux, colibri, écureuils ..) il y a des restes de travaux derrière la piscine et le parking qui atténuent un peu la beauté de l'ensemble. Accueil correct mais il faut poser des questions pour connaître l’ensemble des services (prêts des serviettes piscine qui sont d'ailleurs Souvent en rupture ..., parapluies, activités, mise en route du jacuzzi ...). Le personnel ne parle pas toujours anglais ce qui est dommage vu le standing de l’hotel. En conclusion : bon hôtel mais l’accueil a besoin de progrès. Je pense que les couples y sont mieux accueillis que les familles ....

I had one of the most amazing experiences in Costa Rica. And Tifakara made it better. Great people, great service. Orlando and Daniela were amazing. My family loved it. We will be back on December. Jessica

Booked this hotel Bc of its location. Everything was great and as pictured. Next time we will prob stay in a hotel with volcano views. But only for the views. Not Bc there was anything wrong with this place. We walked to the waterfall and took maybe 15 minutes to get there.
