I recommend staying in room number 1 or 2... they had amazing views of the volcano with nothing blocking us... we stayed here as part of an all inclusive tour package Pros: - Amazing views of the volcano - Friendly staff - Really good food - Cheap cab ride away to town (hot springs, restaurants, bars, shops) Cons: - Not... more

The view from the front door/porch is amazing...it's a spectacular view of Arenal Volcano. The grounds are beautifully landscaped. The shower is very cool with stone wall and an in-shower garden! more

We recently stayed 2 nights at this hotel. We had an awesome view of the Volcano. We did not get to see the lava at night because of the clouds but we could see it smoking and hear it making noise during the day from our room. The hotel is very nice and definitely a resort atmosphere. The hotel is... more

This is a nice smaller resort located just a few minutes away frrom La Fortuna. We stayed only two nights and then headed to Flamingo Beach, but wished we would have stayed longer. The rooms are of a decent size and have a neat shower that appears like it is outiside. The dinner/lunch menu is overpriced and not that good.... more

I would recommend requesting a room in the first couple of rows for the best Volcano views. The grounds are beautiful, well kept and well manicured. We... more

Hotel gardens and setting are super beautiful, shining and very well taken care of. Breakfast was excellent. We had lunch there too; service is a bit slow. It is not very close to La... more

We really enjoyed our stay at the Arenal Springs resort. Every room has an amazing view of the volcano.. we were lucky enough to have our first 2 days sunny and clear! The staff was very friendly. We saw a lot of monkeys, birds, sloths,hummingbirds, lizards, etc during our stay. Most of my great flower, bird and fauna photos came... more
