Right in the rain forest! Loved the sound of the rain on the tin roof! Very peaceful! Lots of birds and wildlife! Toucans right outside of our cabin! Breakfast was great! We enjoyed going to the waterfalls nearby.

There were rats/bats living in the ceiling so I did not sleep at all - there was a huge gap in the door allowing any animal in and we found droppings all over our suite. The overall conditions of the hotel are quite old and run down and the photos are quite deceiving. The landscape was beautiful and being right beside the La Fortune Waterfall was very convenient but not worth the lack of sleep. Our suite was not cleaned one time by maids and they did not care that animals were all over the room.

I was not impressed with the room that I got. Room was small, no kitchen inside. Hotel is close to waterfall and overall location is good, close to restaurants and other attractions.

That Bed

Was in a very quiet place. Close to the La Fortuna Falls. The walls are thin so you can hear your neighbours. Breakfast that was included was delicious but smaller compared to others in the region. The bed and pillows were super comfortable. Slept like a dream. Would go back for that bed.

This is an excellent choice for beauty and value. Amazing hot breakfast. Elevated vista view over la fortuna. Many species of birds including the yellow toucan. Staff attentive Our unit # 10 could use a resupply of basics - dishes, utensils, icecube tray, and some small tables But a very good stay while in the area A good restaurant not too far is Chante Verde Thankyou!

Great stay at Arenal Waterfall.

Great location and price. The complimentary breakfast and observation trail makes it even better deal. The only down side was the squeaky old mattresses and neighbors running water for an hour at night.

The room was nothing like the pictures. It feels like those pictures were taken a long time ago. The hotel is a bit run down. Staff was courteous and it was clean. The environment was nice and very close to waterfall. There is no restaurant on site but breakfast is included and was good.

Ok. La Fortuna has better.

Cute place, loved all the glass. Breakfast was good enough, but to ask for an extra price of bacon you have to have exact change to pay extra. That was tacky and not very customer-friendly. Also, there was something living in the wall between bedroom and kitchen, probably a mouse/rat. And, to be clear, the lodge is not connected to the waterfall- you pay a separate outfit for that.

Very friendly staff, nice and quiet too. Fantastic wildlife all around as it resides a few minutes outside of La Fortuna, up against the rainforest. There is a popular hiking trail and a couple easy loops nearby, as well as a huge waterfall

The property is at the top of the mountain close to Arenal waterfall. It is best for you to have a 4X4 to go up there. The cabin is decent, if you like to be in a cabin inside the woods and have a nice walk in nature. If you like privacy this is not the place to stay. The cabin has windows everywhere for you to look out into the forest which is nice. However, the shower has windows and you just need to pull down the blinds to cover, however, someone could still see you from the outside while taking a shower. Our front door was made of glass without tint or blinds. We had to cover it with sheets to have pricacy at night time. If you are planning to cook, it has a stove, refrigerator, microwave, pots, and utensils. The cabin doesn't have a phone to call the reception. If you need to change towels you will need to go to the front desk to exchange them. The front desk staff is very nice. They will give you tips of the places to visit.
