Great place to staying.
Lesder, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was a fantastic property, private, quiet, and beautiful views off the back covered deck! The hammock and lounge chairs were an added plus to enjoy the view and our own private infinity pool was a bonus!
melton, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Such an amazing place. We loved the cottage space, pool and the view of the town was unreal. I already miss it a few days later and want to go back. Amazing place for a family to stay and experience nature. Highly recommend.
Daniel, 2-night trip

We stayed in one of the villas, clean, great view, nice small kitchen, for the price great.

We enjoyed our stay with this property. We had a small problem and management was great, very quick to correct and very nice. Would recommend, especially villa 13 and 14- both had good pools and amazing views!

Maria Guadalupe, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a wonderful time at our little bungalow. It was a two bedroom with a kitchen and our own private pool. We were in the jungle so we had a lot of activity at night, but it was fun and well worth it.

They were amazing the rooms were clean

The private villa specifically, is an absolute gem

This is an ideal spot for anyone low maintenance, and can get the private villa, on sale. We stayed in villa 14 which was excellent, but it's definitely not modern or 'sealed' off from nature. There are broken curtain rods, missing pool and bathroom tiles here and there, ants, spiders and numerous other native bugs, but nothing that detracted from the wonderful experiences our family had here. The showers and water, heat were great. The private pool was ideal as the hotel pool is by the main office, and the cabins are a rocky, steep walk away. The included breakfast is also off premises, so you will need to drive there every morning if you're interested. The road in and off premises is also a bit tricky to navigate if there's 2way traffic as it's very narrow.
Villa 14, highly recommend for the private pool

Arenal lodge was a complete dream come true, my mother and I stayed in the Tucán lodge, she travelled from Italy to meet up with me, and felt completely relaxed once reached arenal lodge. The lodge was clean and spacious, it was very comfortable and beautiful. We were immersed in the forest and had a hammock on the mosquito safe terrace. It was beyond beautiful. We also had breakfast included and a hike that was beautiful. That hike we saw lots of Congo monkeys and a yellow snake.

Beautiful hotel in La Fortuna, hotel service was perfect too.
Francisco, 2-night trip

It’s a quaint, rustic lodge that is on a great location and some great views especially of the volcano. For the price, you can’t go wrong if you’re looking for lodging that’s economical.

Danny, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I had a great stay at Arenal Waterfall Lodge and I’m looking forward to going there again in the future! Great rooms, view, and breakfast. It was walking distance from the Arenal Waterfall which was very convenient, and a short drive from everything else in the area. The view from the hotel really made it stand out.
Claire, 2-night trip

Very cool Costa Rican jungle experience. Not the Hilton, but more than navigable and livable for travelers with a modicum of adventure in them.
Zachary, 2-night trip
