This beautiful hotel immerses you in nature. From your room, you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the Arenal mountain. However, keep in mind that the nearest city is about 25 minutes away, so your evening dining and socializing options are limited to the hotel itself.

Love the volcano view with lots of greenery looking out from our standard room. The breakfast was great with enough options, and the service was exceptional. It does take about 25 minutes drive from the town.
