This place is heavenly. If you’re looking for some peace, serenity and breathtaking views… this is the place! I had an incredible view of the lake and volcano from my room. Pool and hot tub were nice. Calm crowd. The complimentary hot breakfast was also yummy. Drive to downtown La Fortuna is about 30 minutes and not bad at all.

The room was cleaned daily and the views were truly spectacular!! The door system needs to be changed. If one person wanted to leave the room the other person only has the choice of locking themselves in or leaving the patio door unlocked if they wanted to leave. The hot tub needs to be much hotter- it’s not much warmer than the pool and considering how cool and rainy it gets that would’ve added a huge bonus to the stay.

We had a lovely three night stay. The view from our hotel room was spectacular. The room we extremely spacious and the AC worked well. We loved the sound of the rain on the roof at night. The pool and hot tub were a hit with our kids and we had several meals at the restaurant that were good. We appreciated that this hotel was away from the busy part of La Fortuna but would recommend this for guests with a vehicle due to the location.

A great place to stay for exploring Arenal and La Fortuna. The views from the property are stunning. A particular highlight was breakfast at the bar seating overlooking the view and a bird feeder that attracted so many beautiful birds.

Friendly, helpful staff in this quaint hotel with absolutely stunning views of Arenal and 3 other volcanos. We also saw many birds including toucans! Great breakfast was also included with room and you got to choose from a traditional Costa Rican fare or one with an American flare. You will not be disappointed with your stay here
