The property is so beautiful! You are right by the volcano, the view from the pool is stunning. The staff was very friendly, especially Tania who was more than helpful to us. Breakfast was delicious and had a good variety.
the fact that you lived in Paradise looking at the famous Arenal. The location is great surrounded by many restaurants. Good eating prices are high in this area but food is very good.

AMAZING!!! Amazing view! Amazing breakfast! So clean so nice! Perfect location. Close to everything!
Loved the property! Room was spacious and clean. The view of the volcano from the property was amazing!! Breakfast was really great!! Amazing rice pinto and cheese made our day. Having microwave and small fridge would have been helpful!!
The location was clean, beautiful, and well situated towards La Fortuna and the Hot Springs. The breakfast buffet was great in terms of satiating us with traditional beans and rice, scrambled eggs, pancakes, toast, cereals, lots of fruit as well. The pools were nice and clean as where the bedrooms. My own suggestion would be to add conditioner to the menu of soap and shampoo.
Great friendly staff, location is near to two restaurants and 5 min walk to a cafe shop and tourist center. Breakfast is tasty, local food. They have a spot where you can View of the Arenal Volcano.
Great spot to stay. Impeccable views of the volcano. Easy 10 min drive to downtown La fortuna. Excursions pick you up here. Room has all the basics you need to have a great stay
Great quiet location. Amazing view of the volcano. Fabiola was super friendly and helpful. Everyone was super nice, sorry I can't remember everyones name but you all did an amazing job. I will definitely return and most definitely recommend this hotel.
Beautiful property grounds, nice restaurant and hot water. Staff is very friendly. Close to tours and and cafes as well as other areas with hot springs. Great budget option for visiting Arenal and la Fortuna
This hotel was beautiful! The views of the volcano are just like the pictures .The breakfast was great. The pool was nice. Loved hearing the sound of nature when I woke up. It was such a safe space for such a great price! I would recommend this hotel. Will be coming back here again si dios le permite. PURA VIDA!
