“Beautiful garden”
The hotel is a big beautiful garden. I spent all my time there to photograph birds inside the hotel garden. I can easily spend my entire vacation without leaving the hotel.
“third time at this hotel. We will be back again.”
Wonderful location with a grand view of the volcano. The grounds are impeccable, alive with birds and flowers. The pool is nice,the food is adaquate. This is our third time at the Volcano lodge, we will return.
“Very nice place!”
We came to Fortuna to visit the hot springs and see the volcano and selected this hotel looking for just a place to sleep. The hotel exceeded all our expectations in service, features and price. Usually breakfast included can mean something small, in this case it was a full buffet plus an omelet bar etc all included in price. Grounds are fantastic as are the pool and hot tub areas and children's play areas. We would have gladly stayed several more days if we could have. Rooms are spotless and have everything you need plus a view of the volcano from each room. Security is excellent. I would highly reccomended this hotel.
“Excellent hotel”
Perfect hotel for a relaxing weekend.
“Great location”
If you have a car, it's only about a 5 minute drive into town. The view from your back balcony is gorgeous!! The pools are very nice. Front desk staff very nice to deal with, and the free breakfast was pretty good....... The downsides: Lots of ants in our room and the restaurant service was horrible!!! Most places in Costa Rica do add 10% charge for tip so caution to that.
“Great hotel for friendly service, location and price.”
We loved Volcano Lodge and Gardens. The rooms were very comfortable, nice layout. Great view of the volcano. Saw lots of beauitful gardens and toucans on the property. Close to everything that needs to be seen in the area. The service was fantastic. The Wi-Fi can really only be accessed by the restaurant or in the hotel lobby. Friendly helpful service for all our needs. The breakfast buffet was great. The Sura restaurant was the best deal in town with tasty great choices on the menu. Happy hour, pools and hot tubs....for the price it's the only place I would stay in the area.
“"AMAZING DEAL, should be rated FOUR stars!"”
Expedia gave this hotel three stars and I do not know why (it should be four stars). At first I had my doubt, but once I read the reviews I decided to give it a chance and booked it for one night. Place was AMAZING, CLEAN & staff were very friendly and the free breakfast had a big selections, delicious!! I ended up booking my room for two additional nights......Save your money, I totally recomend this hotel and will be returning. PS I loved the spacious bathroom and the patio!!
“Full service resort in Arenal”
We had a great 2-night stay at Volcano Lodge & Gardens during the green (rainy) season. Everything was great, starting from the very welcoming hotel staff at check-in. They provided very detailed information regarding our room and tour options available, as well as gave us cold welcome drinks, which were much appreciated. Following check-in, we were escorted to our room via golf cart. The rooms are quite large and very clean. There was an air conditioner and coffee maker, but no refrigerator or microwave. The back door opened out onto a patio with a gorgeous view of Arenal Volcano. The resort premises are beautifully manicured, with a short nature trail that leads through the many lovely plants and trees on the property. There are two pool areas; they are not large, but very clean and pleasant for lounging--we enjoyed 2-for-1 drinks poolside during their daily happy hour. Finally, the on-site Sura Restaurant is a real gem; we particularly enjoyed the coconut milk and scallion ceviche and smoked trout pasta, and the service was friendly and accommodating. The hotel does offer spa facilities (which we did not try), but note that there are no hot springs at the hotel itself, unlike some other nearby properties. If you are looking for a comfortable resort with a great view and good service, we would certainly recommend Volcano Lodge & Gardens.
“Relaxing & luxurious but out of town”
Thoroughly enjoyed the Volcano Lodge & Gardens. The grounds are lush and lovely, and some of the fruit and vegetables served come from the hotel's own trees and gardens. The staff all speak English and are very helpful, the pool and restaurant area are extremely nice, and the rooms are very comfortable. It seems that every room has a view of the volcano, although it was not active during our stay. However, the hotel is 7 km out of the town of La Fortuna, so if you don't have a rental car, you will need to either take a taxi or an organized tour to the local attractions. If you just want to stay put and relax, you will find this to be a great location!
“beautiful grounds and great views”
staff were friendly. room was spacious and clean. grounds were very well maintained. pools were nice. great views of the volcano. breakfast was very good. other meals and drinks were a bit expensive. tours are cheaper if booked in La Fortuna.
