Arenal Volcano Region Hotels

We loved our 7-night stay here. Comfy beds, meticulous housekeeping, well-maintained grounds, pleasant pools and hot springs, decent restaurant with free breakfast, fantastic volcano view, small porch with rocking chairs outside every room. Short and easy cab ride (approx $10 each way) to and from town. Other reviewers say the soundproofing is bad, but we didn't hear any of our neighbors at all. A few things some people may consider cons: rooms aren't carpeted, there are no fridges in rooms, shower only (no bathtub), the hotel provides a shampoo-and-shower-gel combo in a dispenser in the shower, hotel reception is about a 10-minute walk from the main pool and restaurant and hot springs, the breakfast buffet is the same every morning.

Very quite, cozy, relaxing atmosphere. The staff were very accommodating, and informative. The Restaurant left a little bit to be desired for Dinner (chicken over fettuccini came over egg noodles) and was a bit pricy, but the free breakfast made up for it. The deluxe 2nd floor room was nice, with a comfy bed, an A/C that kept it cool, and a fantastic view of the Arenal Volcano from the balcony. There are plenty of activities within a short drive (most provide transportation for a small fee $10-15) and some within walking distance, and the trail is quite nice too. I would recommend this place for those looking for a nice, quite, nature seeking vacation. We spent 4 nights here, then traveled to the Pacific coast for a less secluded stay. I enjoyed both equally well, while my companion preferred the seclusion of the Lost Iguana. One thing that totally amazed me, was that never once was I bothered by insects during the entire stay. I took 3 bottles of repellent, but never used any.

Felt relaxed from the moment we arrived. Hotel is lovely, staff are great, spacious rooms and reasonable food. Could sit and look at the volcano for hours!

Beautiful views on top of a little hill of the lake and volcano. 20 minutes further away than the fortuna hotels but closer to the volcano and lake. Suprisingly good and interesting food. Nice infinity pool and hot tub overlooking the lake. Great hotel in its price category. 20 minutes further away from La Fortuna but close to many things.

What a great place. The staff was great, the room was great. This is a really romantic hotel as well. We came to see the waterfall and river AND had two nights of romance. When I come back to Costa Rica, this hotel will be on my itinerary.

Wonderful and lovely highly reccommend very clean lovely views

This hotel is great, full glass window with view of the volcano. Nice rooms and pretty bathrooms. Breakfast is included and has a big buffet. Nice hot springs. This hotel is well priced and I got more than I payed for!

It was a nice hotel. The springs were beautiful. Lots of families and kids so a bit crowded.

Within two minutes of arriving at our very private cabin at Lomas we saw two toucans, and a handsome pair of wild turkeys. During our stay we were constantly enthralled by the beautiful and varied wildlife including our first ever hummingbird experience. The hotel is set about one kilometre into the hinterland and seems to sit at the very base of the Arenal Volcano. The grounds are immaculately and beautifully kept; full of haleconias, wild gingers and other exotic (to us) plants. The rooms are lovely. Ours was a simple wooden 'cabin' with a verandah out the front with a bench for admiring the forest and a good sized balcony out the back with a table and chairs from where we could delight in the fireflies at night and the birds, and passing cows, during the day. Breakfast are lovely - lots of the delicious local fruits and plenty of other offerings, Lomas is excellent value for money and we would most definitely stay there again if we ever returned.
