Nice quiet place to stay and relax. Mostly see people only during the breakfast. All 3 days we enjoed the pool by ourselves. Meaning if you do not want just relax and watch wild life there is nothing to do. Bar/Restorant is closed, only serves limited breakfast

This was a more rustic property, not updated at all. The rooms were barebones and the water pressure spotty. The pool was in disrepair in areas, but clean. The breakfast service was great. Nothing to do in the area and we needed to drive to anything we needed to do. Overall it was just fine for a few days.

The view from the pool overlooking a rain forest valley was fantastic. Breakfast includes 3 options with very small serving sizes. The food was good, just not enough. We purchased additional eggs for $1 each to make due. The rooms are much better in the photos. If you like to watch TV prior to going to sleep, bring your own, the rooms do not include TVs. We were there celebrating our anniversary and the walls are paper thin. We could hear quiet conversations in the adjoining rooms and hallway. And the bed was the loudest, squeakiest bed I have ever slept on. This did not improve our marital status. Also, room cleaning is not standard and must be requested 24hrs in advance. We would get new towels as needed by going to the front desk and seeing if anyone was there to get us new one. 50/50 if the desk was manned. Overarching, the property needs a major overhaul to be competitive in todays market. I would give the location 4 stars, the food 3 stars, the facilities 1 star, and the staff 1-2 stars.

I had a great stay at Arenal Waterfall Lodge and I’m looking forward to going there again in the future! Great rooms, view, and breakfast. It was walking distance from the Arenal Waterfall which was very convenient, and a short drive from everything else in the area. The view from the hotel really made it stand out.

We stayed two days at the Arenal Waterfall Lodge. The cabin we stayed in was not featured in any of the pictures, but it was fairly nice. There were 3 queen sized beds, a full kitchen, and a nice balcony overlooking the jungle. The cabin was located approximately 1/2 mile down a steep and very rough Rd. It was nicely cleaned when we arrived and welcoming. Our greeting was very nice but limited in detail. The pool appeared clean, but we did not swim in it. The staff were all very polite, well-mannered and friendly. The breakfasts were very good. The property appeared aged, but the staff was working diligently at cleaning up the brush and making the large area more beautiful. The lodge was within walking distance of the Arenal waterfall and had many hiking trails to enjoy. We typically like rustic places to stay, but the beetles were a little overwhelming. The beetles, which measured approximately 1 to 2cm long and 1 centimeter wide we're harmless but annoying. At night the beetles flew around and ran into the walls and occasionally landed on the bed. During the day the Beetles would crawl on the floor, and we would kill them. At the end of two days there were approximately 20 beetles that we killed by stepping on them. There was no maid service during our stay, and that would not have mattered if it weren’t for a need to sweep up the beetles we stepped on.

It’s a quaint, rustic lodge that is on a great location and some great views especially of the volcano. For the price, you can’t go wrong if you’re looking for lodging that’s economical.
