Everything was great and the staff was really nice. They ran out of coffee though. :( We're early risers and were working in the mornings. That part was a bit tough but everything else was great!

The property is located out of town, across the parking lot from Mystico - the bridges place. The cabins are beautiful, with lovely views of the volcano. Good bird watching from your balcony in the morning and evening. A comment about the staff: I left a battery charger, and the staff was very helpful and patient in packing it up and sending it on to another lodge we were to stay at towards the end of our trip.

Our stay at the Sangregado Lodge was excellent. The staff worked very hard to make our stay as smooth as possible. The restaurant on site was excellent with the friendliest service around. The food was wonderful too. The servers accommodated us with special requests and assisted us with shuttle service back and forth from the restaurant to our room.

By far exceeded our expectations. The view from your room is to die for. Left us speechless when we pulled our curtains open in the morning. Lovely grounds. Stuff is super helpful and attentive. Fantastic breakfast on the nearby property. 5 star all the way!!! Oh, yeah, and my absolute favorite part is the ambiance, the sounds of the rainforest, Could listen to it forever!

The staff at Sangregado are awesome! Wonderful service - friendly and attentive. We were greeted with coconut water in actual coconuts. There is a free shuttle to the restaurant nearby. The view from the room was lovely. Being able to walk next door to Mistico Hanging Bridges was really cool. The area is gated and safe. You need to drive up a big hill to get in but we found this everywhere in Costa Rica as we traveled. Grateful we rented an automatic 4 wheel drive. It handled all the roads beautifully and we travelled to four destinations! Highly recommend Sangregado Lodge.

The rooms are wonderful and the views were spectacular. I wish there was more to do onsite and that breakfast was on the property. There was a bit of a misunderstanding with a tour that was booked. I never received confirmation and made alternate plans. Due to a late cancellation I would have had the full price. After speaking to the manager he was able to make the necessary corrections for us. Overall, the property is beautiful and the staff is attentive.

Fantastic Stay at Sangregado Lodge!
We had a fantastic stay at the Sangregado Lodge. The view and room were fantastic and just as advertised. Very convenient for the hanging bridges and an easy 20min drive to the hot springs and La Fortuna. We felt very safe the whole time. I did not feel like a 4x4 was necessary and we were there during the rainy season. I loved waking up to that great view of the volcano and the sounds of the forest. Shower/tub could have been a little better, but it was fine and had a great view as well. Breakfast was good each morning.

This property looks out on Arenal Volcano. Nature is outside your window and it is walking distance to the Mistico Hanging Bridges Park. Beds and facilities are very nice. There isn't any food on site, a quick drive down the hill to a nearby restaurant. Really feels like you are in the jungle at Volcano.

This hotel was absolutely magical. It's like you're in the middle of a rainforest with an incredible view of the Arenal volcano! Having breakfast at Blue Hibiscus was a treat and being able to walk right out of the room to the Mistico Hanging Bridges was incredibly convenient! We even saw two Pecaries in the early morning right on the resort grounds.

Gorgeous Stay
We stayed two nights in unit 11. We had an amazing view over the valley and of the volcano. Mistico Hanging Bridges is literally across the parking lot. We went on an amazing night tour there as well as a self guide day walk. The view is amazing. There was a full sized refrigerator with freezer, microwave, very fast Internet, and an amazing shower (with views over the valley). We were very happy with our stay.

Hands down, one of the most amazing views of Arenal Volcano from your bedroom! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful while I was there, even offering to have my breakfast boxed for me the next day since I had an early morning excursion. I spent a whole afternoon enjoying the views and wildlife from the comfort of my room. One of my favorite stays so far!

Sangregado lodge deserves 6 stars. Location was phenomenal being next to the hanging bridges park. The workers were amazing and helpful in answering every question. The views are amazing with a clear view of the local rain forest and the volcano. Keep the back doors open all day and night to feel like you are camping in the rain forest but from a luxurious room. Early hikes through the hanging bridges park and a night hike with a guide were the perfect combination to understand the surroundings. Both breakfast options were excellent!

Best hotel out of 3 we stayed with!
This was an excellent location to stay at, we had so much wildlife around, it was incredible. The Coati's were around our porch regularly and we could book all excursions at a competitive rate directly with the front desk staff who were incredibly helpful. We were able to get into Mistico bridges when they opened and beat the rush without feeling hassled to gather the family which was priceless. Complementary breakfast was directly across the street at La Roca Bistro or Blue Hibiscus down the way, they even put together a breakfast box for us when we were scheduled to be picked up for an excursion at 7am and couldn't make it to the restaurant. Would highly recommend, there is nothing that could have made our trip better!

Our favorite hotel in Costa Rica. Such a unique experience with a wall of glass overlooking the jungle. Great location if visiting hanging bridges but a bit far from everything else. Breakfast was great at lost iguana, but a bit annoying having to drive to another resort for included breakfast

Such a beautiful setting. The view from the shower and bedroom is extraordinary! It is up a steep windy road across from Mistico. It was perfect for us to stay there and go to Mistico first thing in the morning. It is far from town but closer to the volcano and hot springs. The breakfast is down a steep hill that requires driving (or their shuttle) and was a good buffet.

Beautiful location, clean, quiet, and safe. Terrific staff. We loved the fresh coconut water upon arrival, and mini bar was well priced. Breakfast down the road at Blue Hibiscus was terrific and we saw lots of birds and coatis in the area. We would definitely stay here again. Partner and I both wished we'd planned for a bit more down time to sit out on the balcony and enjoy the view during the day (morning and evening were quite cloudy). We really appreciated the effort made to reduce bird window strikes by placing bird silhouettes on the windows, however there might be more effective options like paracord or reflective film. (We unfortunately found a dead bird on our balcony before we left, not sure how common that is though.)

This lodge is like stepping into an episode of National Geographic! We had so many birds, monkeys, and coatimundis around us at different points during the day. I was a little concerned about traffic noise since it's close to Mistico but that was never an issue. All of the staff went out of their way to make sure we were well cared for but Lui and Francisco really made it special. Breakfast at the Blue Hibiscus was delicious and in such a gorgeous setting! You're right next to Mistico Hanging Bridges so make sure you get a reservation for that and the Arenal National Park and Arenal 1968 hiking trails are just a short distance. The drive to La Fortuna is breathtaking also! The lodge provided everything we needed and the only reason I gave them a 4/5 on ecofriendliness is because of the travel sized toiletries that were in plastic. They even had large umbrellas for us to use! They also helped us ordering meals to be delivered when we were too exhaustd to go back out to eat. If you're looking for privacy while being surrounded by everything the rainforest has to offer then this is your spot! I honestly wish I could buy our bungalow and just live there forever. Waking up with the Arenal Volcano right in front of you as birds and Howler monkeys call out is just magical. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend this to anyone wanting to get away from the tourist crowds and experience the natural side of Costa Rica. Pura vida!!

If you want to be in the middle of nature with a stunning view of Arenal Volcano and a 2 minute walk to the Mistico Hanging Bridges then this is the place for you. The individual rooms are designed to fully maximise the opportunity to see birds from the balcony (lots of toucans!). There is wildlife in the grounds too. There is no restaurant, but they have arrangements with the Lost Iguana hotel down the hill for breakfast. We didn’t have a car. There is a free hotel shuttle for breakfast and again for dinner, which was on time apart from once when it was a few minutes late. We loved our stay at the Sangregado Lodge!
