They have a pond like area not maintained. Electrical panel main box was exposed, no covers. I stayed in cottage 42. Lights need upgrade to more brightness inside home. Need trimming of leaves at entrance.

We had a great stay here. The rooms were clean and had everything you need, including a/c. The property itself is very lush and beautiful. It is very walkable. You can take a short walk to La Fortuna where you can find any type of food you desire. I loved the area and my stay at Arenal Montechiari.

The property is old. The bathroom is small. Shower was good but the toilet and sink were finicky - had to operate them just right so they didn't drip. We were assigned a cabin right next to the heavily trafficked area so got noisy at times. There were empty cabins away from the reception area but not sure why we were not given those. Breakfast was good. Wifi only works near the reception and breakfast area.

Hotel is in a great location. Close to town for easy walking but far enough to not hear town noise. Staff are great and very helpful. Rooms were clean and comfortable. No wifi in cabins. Breakfast was good.

This place is beautiful and the staff was friendly. It's walking distance to the town square. The rooms have air conditioning which is nice because it can be so hot outside so nice to walk into a cool room. My son loved the pool. Breakfast was yummy and served buffet style. It also changed slightly each morning. The staff even showed us the ice machine which was nice to fill up our water bottles. I found this place by a recommendation from my friend and I would recommend.

The check in was terrible. The guy was rude and it seemed we inconvenienced him. There is no wifi in the rooms and you have to walk in the rain to the restaurant or reception for service. The shower pressure was not strong and the toilet did not flush. To make matters worse my wife was bitten all over the body.. we assume bed bites. Overall poor experience.

The pool couldn’t be used, the wifi didn’t work, tv didn’t work, the place was noisy due to construction starting before 7am, the room was not ready at 3 pm and they only provided 2 towels for 4 people, the toilet back up, we got move to a different smaller room and there was not running water after 9am. I do NOT recommend this place to anyone. I wish I could get my money back.
