Lesder, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Such an amazing place. We loved the cottage space, pool and the view of the town was unreal. I already miss it a few days later and want to go back. Amazing place for a family to stay and experience nature. Highly recommend.
Daniel, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This was a fantastic property, private, quiet, and beautiful views off the back covered deck! The hammock and lounge chairs were an added plus to enjoy the view and our own private infinity pool was a bonus!
melton, 5-night trip

Maria Guadalupe, 6-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We had a wonderful time at our little bungalow. It was a two bedroom with a kitchen and our own private pool. We were in the jungle so we had a lot of activity at night, but it was fun and well worth it.
Denise, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Arenal lodge was a complete dream come true, my mother and I stayed in the Tucán lodge, she travelled from Italy to meet up with me, and felt completely relaxed once reached arenal lodge. The lodge was clean and spacious, it was very comfortable and beautiful. We were immersed in the forest and had a hammock on the mosquito safe terrace. It was beyond beautiful. We also had breakfast included and a hike that was beautiful. That hike we saw lots of Congo monkeys and a yellow snake.
Isabella, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

Main living area, kitchen, and bathrooms need a remodel. In my opinion the sofa was completely unusable. The showers soaked half the bathroom floors. TVs and better AC would have been nice. Beds were comfortable and Private pool was convenient.

WOW, over and beyond what we expected!!! All separate houses spread apart. Other than birds, total silence. Had a Toucan right outside our window. Location maybe .025 mi from LaFortuna waterfall. HIGHLY recommend
James, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very cool Costa Rican jungle experience. Not the Hilton, but more than navigable and livable for travelers with a modicum of adventure in them.
Zachary, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Great proximity to the falls and hiking trail included.
Andrea, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

It’s a quaint, rustic lodge that is on a great location and some great views especially of the volcano. For the price, you can’t go wrong if you’re looking for lodging that’s economical.
PAULA, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I had a great stay at Arenal Waterfall Lodge and I’m looking forward to going there again in the future! Great rooms, view, and breakfast. It was walking distance from the Arenal Waterfall which was very convenient, and a short drive from everything else in the area. The view from the hotel really made it stand out.
Claire, 2-night trip
