“Rancho Cerro Azul sets itself apart with cabin-style rooms and a location that favors the jungle's edge over La Fortuna's center. I appreciate the handcrafted king beds and private balconies-small luxuries that enhance the quiet setting. The easy access to trails leading toward the Fortuna River is a definite plus.”
