The property is beautiful and true farm to table dining but therefore a limited menu. The private cassitas are lovely and spacious with a large bathroom and private patio. However the bed creaked getting in and out and whenever you moved and the mattress was so hard I barely slept. The hot tub was too scalding hot to actually enjoy but the setup was stunning.

A very peaceful getaway!
The most peaceful experience I had while in CR, it is nestled in the mountains full of flowers, and birds! The food is fresh, affordable and tasty. We went to a few restaurants in the area and they were the best option. They carry Suiz y Tico beer, highly recommend. My favorite was laying on the hammock outside my room watching the rain, lightning, and hummingbirds!

This was my second stay at Fina Luna. I first came in 2015 through a college trip with True Nature, this time around I took my family. We stayed in a family bungalow and had a great time. We will definitely be back.

I recently enjoyed a delightful stay at this tranquil retreat. The pool provided a refreshing escape, while in-house and external tours offered immersive experiences. The farm-to-table cuisine was both delectable and sustainable, elevating every meal. The staff were not only friendly but also incredibly knowledgeable, ensuring a seamless and enriching stay. As a solo female traveler, I felt completely at ease and secure throughout my time here. Highly recommended for those seeking a serene and safe getaway.

This grounds were gorgeous. We saw lots of birds and with patience some sloths. The food fresh and delicious. The drinks unique and my kids loved the smoothies. The pool and hottub were cold but we didnt use it much. The chocolate tour and herb workshop very educational and fun. Ale gave one of the best massages ever. Adding the red clay was heaven. The staff superb. Overall a unique experience

Good but not great
Overall our stay at Finca Luna Nueva Lodge was good. We stayed in the Dome Suite which was great and very unique. However after reading reviews online I was expecting more from the hotel in general. The evening meal was a buffet as the restaurant does not serve the a la carte menu when there are over 25 guest dining - this was the case every evening we were there and we felt was disappointing. The breakfast buffet was very average, and if you arrived later than 7.30am there was no yogurt left (despite asking for more). The pool and jacuzzi area require a bit of an uplift too, a number of sunloungers were damaged and the jacuzzi needs a repaint. The staff were friendly and the service was again good but not great. We enjoyed our time staying at Luna Nueva but I’m not sure we’d stay again if we were to go back to La Fortuna.
