5/5 Excellent
"Beautiful place and very relaxing. Electric power in our room was a bit interrupted occasionally … I feel that’s not uncommon in C.R.?.
I will say, it was the most touristy place we visited. If thats your comfort zone we highly recommend. If we are in Fortuna again we will return to enjoy their amazing property and excellent hospitality! Wonderful place didn’t want to leave!"

"It was one of the most beautiful places I stayed at in Costa Rica! Mine was a patio room looking right at the mountain with lush gardens right in front of the patio. If I ever decide to visit Costa Rica again, Arenal Observatory Lodge will be my first choice to stay in that area! I highly recommend this Lodge to anyone planning to visit Arenal Volcano at Costa Rica."
