Hotel Arenal Lodge

“We had an awesome experience! The hotel staff is extremely helpful and nice. The Arenal Volcano view is unbeatable)”

“A magical place with great view on Arenal volcano. Lovely pool and garden as well as fruit and nature trail Great atmosphere and kids friendly. Host and staff were very kind.”

“Our stay at Arenal lodge was a great experience. It’s a short drive from the centre of la fortuna but the views out way the drive. The flora and fauna surrounding the property are incredible. You will be watching an array of birds and other animals as you eat breakfast. There are SO many hummingbirds. The two walks around the property were amazing and better than arenal national park itself. It’s family run and the owner is extremely friendly and will give you advice about your onward trip. Try the house riding! We had a great stay would definitely recommend. P.s. You will need a car.”

“This was my first time traveling out the country and this place was amazing. The staff was more than friendly from last minute accommodations, extra cafe hours, and sung me happy birthday songs on my birthday. The owners were gracious as well. A small firework show was performed on New Years and everyone made it feel home! Of course the property is older and driving up the mountain driveway was scary but the views did not disappoint.”

“The best views of the Arenal Volcano! I had friends that stayed at a much more expensive hotel and their view wasn't nearly as good. Many beautiful private trails and gardens on the property, you can spend hours exploring. The room was large and clean. There was no mold on the couch or beds. The staff was incredibly friendly. The owners made me feel like family. It is best to come to this hotel by car because it is situated at the top of the mountain (the driveway up from the main road alone is 2km and it is far from town). The owners were very nice and gave me a lift into town when I needed it since I didn't have a car but taxis here are extremely expensive, costing 30$ for a 10-15min ride.”
