“Best Place Ever!!!”

Wow, What a find! This place was perfect in just about every way. The views over the lake were specacular. Add in all the birds, tucans, flowers, and monkeys and you almost never have to leave the hotel. The staff was super friendly and helpful. They even washed my water shoes while I was out doing a canopy tour and ziplining! Funny that we saw more wildlife at the hotel than on the tours. The breakfasts were also top notch! So much good food. It was so wonderful to have breakfast right there with that same view out over the lake. Daniel, the owner, was super friendly and knowlegeable about the area, and his staff really made you feel at home. Location was perfect for us! It was just about 20 min from Sabalito where we windsurfed with ticowind, and 35 min from Fortuna where we took in views of the volcano while sipping on mixed drinks in the hotsprings at Tabacon. (We also ziplined and had a canopy tour in Fortuna.) My girlfriend and I had an exceptional time here and would recommend the location to couples and families alike. A topnotch place.

“Really enjoyed our stay!”

Villa Decary is located in a beautiful setting with great views of Lake Arenal. We loved our room with its vista of the lake and colorful decoration. But most important of all, was the good attention we received from Suzy, the owner, and her staff. Suzy is very involved in the running of her B&B and likes to interact with her guests. She will recommend activities and places to visit which is very helpful to the first-time visitor to the Arenal area. She handled making the reservations for our white-water rafting trip, which turned out to be a great experience. We were sorry to leave Villa Decary.
