Can hear the people next door loud and clear, phone didn’t work. I had to spend $10 on international call to call front desk multiple times. The rooms are very far from pools so there is a shuttle provided. With phone not working, it was challenging to get shuttle. Our key cards didn’t work either and we spent time waiting to get that fixed.

We liked the waterways and the natural springs. The hotel is what it is with regard to the design and layout. It's fairly outdated and inconvenient to have to wait for shuttles to pick you up and drop you off at various areas of interest across the property. The level of service and cleanliness is not adequate though. Only stayed there for one night but that was long enough to experience long delays when it comes to shuttle service and for the washrooms to stop working completely. My family wanted to use the washrooms when leaving the pool/springs area and the washrooms in multiple locations had the water turned off. You can only imagine what the toilets looked like with people unable to flush for hours. And when I brought this up, they were aware of the problem but no solution was given. The staff themselves seem nice with warm smiles but a note to management. Please give the employees the tools they need to make the customers stay more comfortable. For instance many times we asked for a slight alteration to how the eggs were prepared, or if we wanted a specific item with room service, we were politely told it was not possible. If travelling on the cheap and your expectations are very low I would say you may not notice these shortcomings but if you value, well value... Stay somewhere else.

Overall, it is a large resort with beautiful grounds. But the rooms were VERY dated and in our opinion gross. Our room was musty smelling, unwelcoming and uncomfortable. We checked out a day early and ended up booking an extra day at the resort we had planned to go to second. The breakfast was decent for being included, lunch/dinner restaurant was not good at all for the price. The bar food was great and the service there was wonderful. I booked this resort with lower expectations as I was booking “budget” as we had lots of excursions planned during the day and really wanted this to just sleep. We dreaded coming back here after our long day of excursions and in the future would pay more to stay at a place with rooms that didn’t smell, were comfortable and clean. When we checked out the receptionist said “you are checking out a day early” and my husband said “yes, we are unhappy. The room was gross and smelled” and he just replied “okay”. La Fortuna was a great and wonderful experience but we would definitely stay elsewhere next time!

We had a wonderful time at this property. It's maintained perfectly and the views are gorgeous from the rooms. The breakfast was such a treat everyday. The hotsprings were a cherry on the top. We loved every bit of it.

We enjoyed our stay at Los Lagos. The location wasn’t too far away from town and other activities. The pools were the highlight of our trip. The staff were friendly and helpful. We would stay here again.

Nice
Nice resort, friendly/helpful staff, nice pools. My room was a good size with minimal furniture (could have used a chair). The property is very large and spread out. There is a shuttle that gets u to/from room. Know that this resort is a bit out of town, but fortunately Uber is super reasonable here. I enjoyed my stay and would stay here again.

I would highly recommend this property. I came on a girl's trip for 6 days. There are several thermal pools that are heated to a range of different temperatures so you can find what works for you. There are also natural pools with slides and the place seems quite family friendly as well. Breakfast is included and it was great. Lunch and dinner were pretty good too, but we enjoyed catching a cab into town to the different restaurants. Food options downtown were great! Excursions were also easy to book from the hotel. Staff were all very friendly. I would absolutely stay here again and bring my family next time.
