Amazing little resort in the rain forest. Super helpful and friendly and a lot to do. It is a bit far from La Fortuna however.

Nature retreat and quiet atmosphere
The property is amazing for the nature lover. It’s a bit remote so no food options other than their restaurant around. Rooms are mediocre (cabin like). The staff is really nice and hard working. The thermal pool is lukewarm temperature not really hot.

STAY HERE!
The service was fantastic, the rooms are beautiful and they thought of everything, right down to soft blankets to snuggle with in the hammocks. We loved the walking paths, the hot springs, the breakfast was fantastic, we loved our stay and would love to come back!

Beautiful resort. Pool was nice and hot springs are lovely. Really enjoyed the opportunity to explore paths on the property and see flora and fauna (we saw a sloth on the first day, toucans, parakeets, and much more). We stayed in the treehouse and it was a wonderful treat. Would stay again here.

Jose Jesus, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was really, really a fun place for us! We stayed in the deluxe Treehouse #1. The treehouse and the grounds were just wonderful. The staff was super friendly, the treehouse was clean and SO COOL with all the glass windows. The meals were excellent. We loved the pool and hot spring tubs. Highly recommend!

Great treehouse for a family!
Amazing treehouse and staff. Our kids had an incredible time exploring. We saw toucans right on the property. The drive to the resort is scenic and we found it enjoyable, so much to see and great sodas and markets along the way.

We loved our stay at Heliconias Nature Inn. The bungalows were clean and had a wall of glass to view the jungle. The grounds were peaceful and well maintained. The restaurant on site was very good and convenient. We would definitely stay here again.

The lush, tropical landscape

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed in a glass bungalow, which had glass walls on three sides. It was really an incredible experience. The people there were so helpful and friendly. The Hot Springs pools was a really unique experience. We would definitely go back.

Nice quiet experience. Very friendly staff restaurant was very good. Would have been nice to have better location to store luggage, and personal items in the suites.
Martin, 3-night trip

We loved this hotel! Kids had a blast with the hammocks and hot springs! Only recommendation would be to have stronger AC. Room was very warm when we checked in and took a while to cool down.
