The family that tends to the cabin was so kind. It is very helpful to speak a bit of Spanish, but they do they’re best if you don’t. There was a nice breakfast for $5/person that we enjoyed while watching the many birds out front at the reception area, and having a completely private cabin with a back porch overlooking the garden was very nice.

good value, sweet family run business
This was a sweet place out of the main Fortuna area, but still quite close. My only complaint was we expected at least one stove burner for a little cooking. The people are super-sweet. Breakfast was adequate. Nice gardens and walk down to the river. Quiet.

Great little place to stay. The setting is very beautiful and it feels remote even though this is quite close to La Fortuna town, La Fortuna waterfall and Cerro Chato. The breakfast at the Cabina was also a great example of a typical breakfast. Highly recommended!

These little cabins were very clean, some newly renovated. Amenities were a little lacking, like there was no safe or AC, however there was a refrigerator, a kitchenette as well as a porch overlooking the river with a hammock. table and chairs to enjoy the afternoon. Breakfast was supplied for an additional $5 per person that was homemade and delicious. Our host was also a bit of a bird whisperer, having made friends with a local humming bird that felt comfortable enough to land on his hand. All-in-all, it was a nice place to stay, near the volcanic area and reasonable in price.

My family (two adults and 2 teenagers) had a nice stay at Cabinas La Catarata. The cabin has a balcony with a great view of the river and the surrounding forest. Tranquil environment!

Wonderful bird-watching!
Toucans and parrots and many other birds appeared on the trees viewed from the kitchenette/balcony. The sounds from the trees and the cataracts below were very refreshing. We could experience the outdoors even on the day it was raining.

Fantastic Little Cabins!
Really fantastic little cabins! An amazing value. Rustic with modern bathroom and some appliances. Excellent hosts. Helpful and efficient. Loved the cabins and the scenery, flora, birds, environment completely enchanting :) It does help to speak a little Spanish, but not necessary.

Comforts of being at home in the jungle
A beautiful surrounding and peaceful sleep with only the rush of the river in the background. Close to town, but far enough from the hustle and bustle. Friendly and eager to please family run accommodation. The breakfast is a great deal with beautiful bird feeding as your morning entertainment. I can't say enough about how we loved our stay and would come back anytime. As well as recommend this to our friends.

Decent location, good pool
The pool and the free breakfast were probably the best parts out of our stay, the restaurant workers spoke a little English but not much. We went to the restaurant for supper, their chef is originally from Italy and hand cut the pasta noddles. The casino part of the hotel is under renovations and their gym is a little old/rusty but I was still able to get a good workout in there. If we ever travel back to Liberia, we will definitely stay here again.
