Overview

Casa Luna is an eco-friendly hotel that abides by a decidedly green philosophy and encourages those who stay there to do the same. The property lies on the outskirts of the Costa Rican town of La Fortuna and is one of the smaller accommodation offerings in the area. It’s located just a short distance from the stunning Arenal Volcano National Park, a popular protected area known for its towering volcanoes, diverse and colourful wildlife and abundance of hot springs.

There are 40 rooms in total, and three levels of accommodation to choose from: there are Standard Deluxe Rooms, the Luna Superior Rooms and the Luna Junior Suite. All rooms cleverly combine modern architecture with a rustic feel and they offer plenty of modern conveniences such as a minibar, tea and coffee making facilities and a flat screen TV with cable channels. Each room also has a balcony or terrace area with outdoor seating, as well as captivating views of the surrounding area. Some rooms look out onto the two nearby volcanoes, Arenal and Cerro Chato, while others have views of the hotel’s immaculately-presented gardens.

There’s an extensive list of over a dozen organised activities on offer. Some of the many options include cave exploring expeditions, trekking around two lakes formed in volcanic craters, a wildlife spotting boat trip, a visit to a nearby farm, nocturnal forest walks, breath-taking hikes over a thrilling suspension bridge, bathing in hot springs and white-water rafting, all with expert guides.

When not out discovering what the wider area has to offer, there are plenty of on-site facilities to make use of. The restaurant serves freshly prepared local and international cuisine and there’s also a a swimming pool surrounded by loungers, along with a spa offering a good range of tempting treatments. Guests are free to explore the gardens and may even encounter some of the many birds that inhabit the local area, such as toucans and hummingbirds, not to mention howler monkeys, iguanas and lizards.

Children of all ages are welcome, and those up to three years of age stay free of charge. Child rates apply for those aged 4 to 11, and from 12 years of age adult rates apply. The standard and superior rooms have two twin beds which is ideal for young families of 4 – and the superior rooms make for a more spacious choice. There is a children’s menu at the Luna Grill restaurant and a babysitting service can be provided on request, although there is an additional charge for this. Due to the rural location of the lodge, parents are reminded to ensure that children remain under constant adult supervision.

  • We had such a good holiday. You did a fantastic job!

    The house in Marrakesh was ridiculous. We effectively had it to ourselves. The accommodation was borderline palatial.

    I actually think that the time we had in Marrakesh was sufficient. We could potentially have done a day by a pool but I think we’d done enough souk-ing by the end of Day Two.

    The hotel in the mountains was a shade more rustic than I was expecting, but all great fun. Stunning views. The guide / mule / cook team were excellent and our guide (Hassan) tailored the treks to our capabilities well. He was superb, and really made an effort with the kids. The second and third day of trekking were particularly good. Such an adventure for the kids.

    All the logistics worked seamlessly. Every aspect went like clockwork. Top marks. The advice on tipping was also much appreciated (I hate thinking that I’m getting mugged off or am potentially not giving enough…).

    From my seven-year-old son:

    I thought it was GREAT. The food was amazing and the culture was very interesting. My favourite bit was scrambling up rocks in the Atlas Mountains.

    In retrospect, I’d probably do the trip in reverse. Flopping on the roof terrace after the rigours of the mountains would have been even more satisfying.

  • We just wanted to thank you for an absolutely amazing holiday. Everything went exactly to plan and we were blown away with the quality of the guides, transport and accommodation. The itinerary was perfect for our family with a great mix of guided and free days and the different destinations complemented each other well. We will definitely be using Tourdust again for our next trip! Particular highlights were the Ha Long Bay cruise, Hanoi, and the morning cycle tour in Siam Reap
