I really enjoyed my stay here. The staff was above and beyond (atleast Blaz and Nazareth) Super pleasant, helpful and quick. The view of the Arenal Volcano was breathtaking from my room. Excursions were less than 15 minutes away. Cute little ducks be sitting outside the restaurant/lobby everyday.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
We were there 3 nights and several times we requested the room to be cleaned and it never was, which is especially important due to the requirement to put toilet paper in the bin. Our toilet was not working properly and they never fixed it. The walls are very thin and neighbors and the road were noisy.

My rating is this low only because I cannot select zero stars. I booked two rooms and a theft occurred in our room while staying in the Lodge. Someone, with a key, went in while we were out, opened a suitcase and stole jewelry. We spoke with another guest and the same thing happened to his wife at approximately the same time. We both complained to the manager and she said to "file a police report" before they would investigate. We both did and the police came and questioned the manager. She denied the theft even occurred. Our follow up with her received a blatant denial and refusal to even question her housekeeping staff. If you value your security and safety, I caution you to think again before staying at the Arenal Roca Lodge & Bungalows.

Liked: Staff & service
The staff was very hospitable and kind. I had a difficult stay in my bungalow because there were so many ants. Geckos would poop and ants would come and it was a huge ongoing problem. The bungalows are very rustic. It’s freezing at night event in the high 60’s because there is nothing between you and the forest except some wood paneling. When it rained it leaked through the roof. It wasn’t the most comfortable stay. The cycaidas were so loud and the geckos chirps….its definitely for a certain type of person and that person wasn’t me.

The hotel room was small and not updated at all. We had many bugs and a lizard in our room. Something kept biting me and my family all night long. I was so worried that there were bed bugs that we packed up and stayed somewhere else. The AC worked well and the staff was friendly, but that was the only good parts of staying there. I would not stay there again, like ever.

This place is a good place to stay near lots of La Fortuna’s activities. You will need a car to go to the hot springs, hikes, birdwatching, etc. it is very convenient to go to Místico Park. The real plus was our host, Isaac. Just a very competent, agreeable and accommodating individual. Though the place is mainly basic accommodations with a good breakfast, Isaac is just top notch. Got great directions we needed with his knowledge of the area. Just an all around pleasant person to have met.

Clean motel with comfortable beds, plush towels and AC. Staff is super friendly and helpful. Delicious breakfast with 3 options to choose from that include coffee and juice. Ample parking Pool is clean but inquire as to which days they empty and refill so as not to plan an afternoon poolside in an empty pool 😊 conveniently located to LaFortuna and many activities it is close to main road so noise may be an issue for some

Here's a balanced and detailed review based on your feedback: Title: Great Staff & Views, But Rooms Need Serious Improvement I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the positive side, the staff was incredibly kind and helpful, always ready to assist with any requests. The view from the room was fantastic, and the breakfast was a highlight—great selection and quality. However, the condition of the room was disappointing. It felt very old and poorly maintained. The shower was not clean, and there was no closet or drawers for storing suitcases or clothes. There wasn’t even a single hook in the entire unit to hang towels or clothing. The bathroom had no counter space, and the sink was outdated. The bed was uncomfortable, with insufficient pillows, and the lighting was poor—just one white ceiling light that made the room feel cold and unwelcoming. Overall, while the service and views were great, the hotel needs serious updates to make the rooms more functional and comfortable.
