"The bungalow had a great rustic feel. The view of Arenal Volcano was spectacular out of the large windows in the morning. The property is 9km out of La Fortuna, but it's only 3 or 4 minute's drive from many of the hot springs and about 10 minutes from the restaurant hub in La Fortuna. The staff were very friendly (I've yet to meet a Costa Rican who wasn't) and I would recommend staying here to anyone."

Suwa Villa Arenal is one of the best places at which I have stayed! We had four guests and stayed for four nights in mid-March. Beautiful rooms with an outdoor patio and chairs, and A/C. Very clean and fully stocked communal kitchen, with a super cute and lush lounge area on the side. There are laundry machines available to use, with 2 free detergent pods provided.

The Staff here are AMAZING! We stayed for only one night before returning to SJO airport. We needed assistance with transportation and the staff here bent over backwards to make calls and help us. This property is clean and has a nice breakfast. The ONLY negative I would give it - the noise. If you cannot sleep with earplugs, you may want to look elsewhere. Otherwise, you cannot go wrong booking La Fortuna Lodge.

We stayed here for 4 nights. It was very nice and comfortable with a beautiful view of the volcano when the clouds weren’t low. It was close to many things we did in the area.

This place is great
There is nature all around. I very much enjoyed swinging in the hammock looking at nature.
It is about a 30 minute walk to City center, but there are a few restaurants within 10 minutes. There is also a grocery store two minutes away
There is an adventurous "river walk" on property that we enjoyed.
The few cons were the breakfast wasn't the greatest for the price. Also the air conditioner weezed the last day... But we never notified them about it, so can't blame them for...

Outstanding place to stay! Beautiful grounds, great accommodations and excellent staff! We saw so many wonderful birds thanks to their feeding station. We did their night walk tour and it was fascinating! I’d highly recommend staying here. You won’t be disappointed if your looking for beautiful grounds, great service and bird watching.

Room was nicely decorated. Staff was friendly. Nice view out back of room into the woods.
We had a 7:00 am tour so we couldn’t utilize regular breakfast. They made us a sandwich, fruit, and juice which was appreciated, but if all that was done, they could have just as easily fed us normal breakfast a little early. Also, a little difficult to check out and still be able to access your car when you return.
Overall, enjoyed it!

Host was a family and very friendly and helpful. Property was beautiful. We did have a leak during rain but host was quick to respond and bring towels. We also had a dog barking during the night from next door property but host offered to contact neighbors. Would stay here again. Very neat and unique property.

The staff was a 1000/10. Extremely nice and helpful! The cabin itself was cute, although I thought it was going to be a bit bigger. Did have a spider inside the room but it’s CR, couldn’t expect anything less; the staff was nice enough to come kill it. Even though the area is small, it’s beautiful to walk around, even has a little stream in the back. Would definitely stay here again. Oh and breakfast was amazing. Again, thank you to Karen and Andrea.
