Good value but just OK.
This place is ok and has a good location. We stayed in one of the cabins and there was a mouse or rat living (or visiting) in one of the walls at night. The breakfasts are pretty standard and the restaurant staff is really nice. The beds are quite hard. Good value but I would probably stay somewhere else if we go back to La Fortuna.

Great hotel, it was very charming, nice rooms, clean and the staff is very kind. You can also book activities at the reception, like Atv tours, sloth tours, zip-lining, etc. I enjoyed my time there and would definitely revisit.

The staff checking us in were friendly but told us that our room was not ready upon check-in, which we did after check in time. The grounds were safe and kept clean. The cleaning crew kept insisting to clean our room even with us present in the room and had to be told to come back to clean the room when we were not present. The breakfast served were good portion sizes and served traditional meats typical to the region - do not expect any breakfast meats similar to the US. The pools and hot pools were very nice amenities to the property as well as their parking spaces. The view of the Arenal Volcano is as advertised on a day that is not too cloudy. Overall, I would stay here again for the safety and simplicity of the property but the cleanliness can be improved.

The view to the volcano view was beautiful but the bungalow was not clean. There were bugs in my bed and around the corners of the head board. I asked for extra pillows and we got 4 hard as rocks decorative throw pillows. The shower head had a large hole and the tile just was old and cracked. I would have stayed at Los Lagos had I known the discomfort of this place. This is the first review I have ever written on anything...I wasn't super excited to be here 3 nights.

Nice, quiet and well manicured grounds. The bungalow type rooms were super nice, clean and had all the amenities you could need. Staff was great, the pool and restaurant area were great. Location is just outside of La Fortuna, and a quick drive and you were in town with plenty to see and do. Highly recommend this place!

Great service from Sol and Daniela at reception. Jackie and everyone at the hotel restaurant and bar were great. We enjoyed the food. The room cleaning service needs improvement. Sometimes dirty towels were not taken and left on the floor. Sometimes towels were not replaced. Some trash was not taken. The Souvenir shop at this hotel has a lot to offer.

Loved our stay here! Clean room and a nice pool. We drove into the main part of town for dinners and shopping but it was nice being out of the hustle and bustle of La Fortuna downtown. Closer to the volcano and hot springs too.

This is a good (not excellent) budget friendly hotel with a beautiful view of Arenal Volcano (when the sun is out). Our rooms were clean -- but the decor is pretty outdated. A small matter when you spend most of your time on excursions in this area. The overnight rain showers were dreamy on the roof as we slept. The breakfast was delicious and service staff were very helpful. I do suggest that when offering excursions through the hotel, the time allocated for each adventure is really off. We had a 3-hour sloth park, coffee & chocolate excursion that lasted nearly 6 hours... and the next day we had booked a 6 hour, 3-part excursion and were put on the bus that held us captive for the FULL DAY, meaning 4-parts, 12 hours away -- we didn't pack properly, and were wet most of the day. We know we're in a rainforest, and we had rain jackets, but one meal and one drink included in a 12-hour excursion is lacking.

We loved our room, it had amazing views of the Arenal Volcano, and we saw an armadillo in the garden. Bathroom was very clean and spacious, and had plenty of pools. Staff were very friendly. Our only con was breakfast, it was our least favorite hotel breakfast of the trip with both the options available and taste. Beds were very comfy with lots of pillows, room included a mini fridge and a very high quality ac unit.

Stayed 3 nights. Room with beautify view of the Arenal. Woke up to lovely birds chirping in the morning. Nice resort, with basic room. Nothing fancy but adequate for our need. Convenient walkable to most restaurants and shopping area. Breakfast was good, not too many options but adequate, went mostly for the traditional. Easy driving distance to Arenal area. Area around the resort felt safe even at nights. Only con : can get load during the nights as it is on the main road.
