"I came to Noah’s Forest to rest, sleep, recharge and explore the nearby rainforest. Wow it was just the perfect place! This place has a so beautiful with the lush landscaping. They have a “sloth walk” jungle area and I spent a lot of time there just listening to the sounds of nature. The restaurant is probably the best in the area (I especially like the Costa Rican lunch dishes). The best part was the staff, especially Jeisson, Oscar and Cristal."

8/10 Good
"stayed in the sunrise room: really exceptional. It is a wonderful hotel, but overall, falling too much in love as to how fancy it is. Case in point: the Celajes Restaurant. Gorgeous sunset views. Wonderful starter. Then came the 40$ filet. Worst filet I ever had. It was chewy, rather than melting in your mouth as it should. Told the waiter ( more politely), who brought the chef. Rather than receiving an apology, I got a lecture and was made to pay the entire bill. Perhaps I was too polite? Anyways, can‘t fully recommend it at that price. Get of your horse, Hotel Belmar! It is a shame, because all the employees are trying so hard. Ah, also, the sunrise room is truly fantastic. But it creaks and rumbles when the wind is blowing outside. I didn’t mind, but some may find that disconcerting."
