We stayed in the new block of rooms and felt as if we won the jackpot. Really nice spacious room with en-suite and a balcony looking out to the Arenal Volcano. Super clean and comes with air-con. For the price you pay it was well worth it just for the quality of the room. Across the road is Mary's BBQ which is a good place to eat if you don't fancy the walk into La Fortuna town.

Breakfast was very limited and the staff sometimes weren't present but were nice when they did interact with those staying at the hotel. It is a fair walk into La Fortuna town and the road has no sidewalk/pavement so at night does feel slightly dangerous however the area feels safe.

The breakfast was great. Rice and beans, plantains, scrambled eggs and some empanadas. Giant water cooler to refill bottles which was very appreciated. We were allowed to hang out by the pool after check out which was great. The rooms also were fabulous with a separate shower, sink in the actual room and toilet around the corner.

The shower room let in a lot of light. We had to block it with pillows so we could sleep. Otherwise no complaints.

Super friendly staff, Big comfy bed & spacious room, great breakfast (included), pool, lots of green & natural surroundings.

Hotel is located further out and there is only 1 restaurant around, so you do need a car. During the 1st half a year of 2024 they are fixing the bridge from downtown La Fortuna to where the hotel is located, so you must drive longer. Totally doable with a car, but not on foot.

The location was just right for us. Close enough to downtown La Fortuna, the sights but still away from the crowd. The staff is friendly, accommodating and incredibly sweet. My kids and even us adults loved that we had stockings filled with local candies that were hung on our doors Christmas morning. Lovely touch. Definitely able to see a lot of bird activity. Walking distance to one of the sloth trails as well and we spotted quite a few! Morning breakfast was very tasty and the spread was nice.

Our room while clean and comfortable didn’t have any kind of closet to hang our clothes. Not a big deal breaker (for us) but it is worth mentioning.

Nice surroundings. A little bit far from the hectic city center and roads. Nice breakfast

The bed is very uncomfortable and noisy since it has like a plastic surrounding on the mattress. There were bugs in the room. Very noisy. You can hear even the tv from the neighbour’s room.

nice place, clean rooms, very friendly staff, good breakfast.

good to know: if you want to go to la fortuna, you should have a car, because the hotel is a bit outside. (20-30 min walk.) the toilet room is open to the top. as a single traveler like me no problem. with two or more travelers, some privacy is missing. (this probably only applies to the rooms on the upper floors with sloping roofs).

We loved the howler monkeys and all the birds and frogs Thankyou to Gregory the groundskeeper. Also loved the clean large pool

The bed was uncomfortable and the breakfast buffet should be changed a bit at least every 2 days.

A to Z top notch resort hotel. Room, cleanliness, grounds design, facilities and a willing hands on helpful manager. The Eco Arenal in Hawaii would be $300/day. The most attractive aspect is that the grounds to the back and side are so extensive and untouched that the trails represent a true Costa Rican nature walk. In my 2 day stay I observed over 3 dozen species. It is 4-5 km from the town of La Fortuna.

The staff and caring service, the magical dining area amidst beautiful property and birds, amazing food and high end cooking.

Could be updated a bit, hot water in the little pool would be a great addition!
