Corralillo Vacations from $747

Nice family place with excellent included breakfast options

Luxurious five star property that checked all the boxes. Amazing and highly attentive staff, exceptionally well maintained property, with countless pools and natural hot springs, and its own activity center on the Arenal River that runs through the property. Our room was spacious, with a large bathroom with spa tub, and large balcony with ideal view of the volcano. The property was tucked into a forrest 15 minutes from town. Being on site is an experience in itself. The only downside was the pull of being on site can limit interest in taking more advantage of the surrounding area. The dining options were good, not great, but the bar bites by the pool and river were all satisfying. All in all, one of the finest properties we have ever stayed at. Looking forward to a return visit.

Getting onto the resort our car check in was thorough, which gave us a sense of security during our stay. We booked a room with one king bed, but were given a room with two queens pushed together. There was a nice hammock attacked to our room which was private and had a beautiful view of the water, but the room itself was slightly dirty. The pool was beautiful!! Our only complaint was that they closed the pool at 7pm so swimming was often cut too early. The food was... ok. There were plenty of options but the quality was not what you would think for an all inclusive.

The resort is beautiful, and we had a fantastic time.

The property itself is beautiful. However, getting to most restaurants, the national park, or other places in town outside the property requires a car, taxi or use of the resort shuttle. The staff was incredibly helpful though in arranging for taxis or using the hotel shuttle to drop us off at restaurants on the way to their scheduled stops at the national park.
