This is an amazing stay. If you got the change, you should definitly stay here. First of all, the owners and staff are super nice and helpfull. They helped us book our tours, but also.. we arrived later then planned, but one of them waited for us and was very kind. And made sure we arrived save and sound. Second of all the view is incredible. Ofcourse nobody can controll the weather, but even with clouds and rain its gorgeous. Third of all the tours they can book for you are with really good company's. Normaly I prefer to explore by myself, but considering the time we had in La Fortuna a tour was best use of time. We booked a massage and it was GOOD! Also booked a combination tour and that company was also very good. Good wildlifespotters, nice humor and respect for the nature. The pictures are like it is, so you really now what to expect. No surprises.

    Definitely the best place we stayed in Costa Rica. It was so great waking up in the tents with a fantastiv view on the vulkano. The tents were very comfortable and awesome. In the morning we even saw some tucans. The best part of our stay were Wendy and Roger. The wete so welcoming, heartwarming, helpful, and fun and it was always nice to have a little chat with them

    Great view of the volcan directly from the bed. Staff really nice and helpful. I had a payment problem with one card which resulted as the amount frozen on my account. They did the necessary to resolve it quickly. And Christian, one waiter of the restaurant is very friendly and funny and give good tips about what to do in the area.

    We travelled with our children (3 years old and 8 months) and it was a dream destination! We were prepared for the « bumpy » road to get there, and it was much less difficult than expected. Nepenthe was a magic place to stay for our family. We loved: 1-The LOVELY and welcoming staff at Phoenix restaurant. Our son already misses his « friends » 2- The view from our villa was breathtaking. 3-The calm, the birds, the weather and all the activities in the area! 4-The villa #7 itself was well furnished and very spacious
