Great location in walking distance to the town center. I had a spacious, bright and well thought out room on the upper floor with spectacular vulcano view from my balcony! Staff was amazing...Mariela and Keyna were always smiling and super helpful! I used Uber to get around...very convenient if you don't want to rent a car! Would stay there again without hesitation! Pura Vida!

The lodge has a great location, but the strongest point is the staff. They are always willing to help with recommendations, contacts and services. The staff looks for options to make your stay more comfortable. For example, we arrive to the location before check in time and they allowed us to to early check in, also provide some contacts and suggestions for the tours.

Excellent service from staff. Clean and new facilities and property. Breakfast was delicious and you can choose amongst any 4 options. It’s close enough to Arenal that you can get to places like Mistico in 30 minutes but far enough away that you can actually take in the spectacular view of the volcano from all over the city. Loves our stay here.

Amazing hotel!! There are beautiful views of the volcano from this hotel! The rooms are clean and very comfortable. Breakfast is great. Staff are extremely kind and helpful. We had a miscommunication with a tour pickup and staff helped us call the tour and figure things out. Staff truly went out of their way to make sure we had an amazing experience! 10/10 would stay again and again
