Arsenals go to place.
Best place to stay in Arenal for price and comfort. Other places charge twice as much and don’t offer anymore than you get here. And the grounds, pool, hot tubs and food are great. Service is very accommodating and truly treat you well. They can set up any excursion you want to do and have you picked up at the hotel. They can also organize in room massages singles and couples.

GOOD VALUE but SO-SO ROOM
excellent breakfast buffet. Fresh fruit delicious. Resort property nicely landscaped with a huge variety of plants. Several pools that were clean, except not sure about hot thermals. Room ok except for bathroom. Mirror far too low. I am 6'2" and had to swat down to see my face. Inexcusable. Shower shampoo and bath gel awful. Neither would lather. I am alight sleeper and insect noises around the room made sleeping difficult. One was a constant (every few seconds) chirping the entire night. If I returned I would probably try a different hotel.

Affordable Luxury In The Volcanos Shadow
The Volcano Lodge and thermal experience was a wonderful resort. It was close to the volcano park and at the base of the volcano surrounded by nature. We saw sloths outside our room, various types of birds amphibians ( frogs) and reptiles ( iguanas, lizards, geckos) The food was excellent and the thermal pools really helped us relax at the end of the day and take the stress and soreness of the day away. Although we had our own transportation, the front desk offered activity packages including every entrance ticket and tour you could imagine of things to do in the area and they provided transportation. They even had an airport shuttle you could schedule in advance to pick you up at SJO or Liberia and bring you to stay with them. Luis was awesome and Joseph was the best employee. He helped me with an excursion issue I was having due to my Internet issues and my Internet provider. I would highly recommend this hotel and will stay there again when I’m in La Fortuna in the future. Very affordable rates as well. We were a party of 8 and had 4 rooms and stayed 3 nights.

Best place in la Fortuna/Arenal
This is the best place to stay in la Fortuna/Arenal Just at the resort you have great views of Arenal, plus the fauna and animals are amazing. You have hot spring baths or relax in the pool. Breakfast is unbelievable everything you could want. Staff can arrange for any excursion you would like with pick up and drop off at reception area. They offer private hot tubs on patios of some rooms, which are nice to relax in after a day of trekking. This was my fourth stay here and as always there will be another soon.

The property is beautiful and it has everything you need. The only thing missing for us was bed side lamps. I had to get up and turn off the big lamp and there was no sitting in the bed with just a bed lamp. We always had to have the big light on. Very inconvenient when you try to relax at night before bed.

We had a wonderful stay. The hot springs were very relaxing after fun filled, active days. The restaurant had a variety of dishes to choose from. It was close to all our excursions in La Fortuna. The only problem was our air conditioner broke twice during our stay. They can to fix it right away.

2/10 Poor

The property was extremely noisy. The rooms were paper thin. We had a person next door who was having a full-blown party. You could hear him from two doors down. Everyone in the building complained. The staff did nothing and I mean nothing but start problems with the people who complained. At one point they offered to refund me if I left, which I thought was crazy considering I had to catch a flight the next day. We even had a guy come on our patio and leer into our room and they did nothing about it. The guy at the front desk named Keylor was extremely unhelpful and rude and made a situation a lot worse than it had to be. I asked him for help, he did nothing. They didn't refund me for the last night even though this day was awful and would no way shape or form be considered a vacation. I did not feel like I was respected at this place. I also felt like the facilities were very dirty when I was in the hot springs. I always would get other people's sunscreen and body oils in my hair and on my body because they wouldn't clean themselves before they entered. The pool. Had a lot of cracking. The room was fine. We just didn't like the peeping Tom next door and that the resort did absolutely nothing to make right. We felt completely violated at this place. The place is cheap because you can literally hear absolutely every conversation and everything going on next door to you. The manager here does not care. Does not take any type of time to talk to customers. Worst resort
