Villas Jawara

"Would highly recommend! Superb Villa with modern amenities and with incredible views of Arenal volcano. Santiago was very helpful, particularly in the lead up to us arriving. Is nice that you are also within the Los Lagos resort, whilst still being in a secluded area up the hill, as you have the option of using the hot springs etc. Would happily come back again."

Top Northern Plains Hotel Reviews
The Springs Resort and Spa at Arenal
10/10 Excellent
"It is a dream. Waking up to volcano views and spending days hot springs hopping is truly magical. All of the staff go above and beyond as well."
Tifakara by the Waterfall
10/10 Excellent
"I cannot say enough good things about Tifakara. Our stay was magical. From the wildlife off our back balcony (the rare treat of seeing a whole troop of monkeys!), the frog tour was thrilling, the daily included breakfast delicious and a perfect way to start a day of adventures in La Fortuna, to the luxurious accommodations (I’m forever spoiled by the remote controlled bidet toilet). All that would have been more than enough. But by far the best part about Tifakara is the staff. They were warm and accommodating and attended to us without feeling obtrusive. Everyone was beyond friendly and the warmth and genuineness was palpable. We loved every moment of our stay at Tifakara and if we’re ever fortunate enough to return to La Fortuna we would stay nowhere else."
The Royal Corin Thermal Water Spa & Resort - Adults Only
10/10 Excellent
"The staff here were very helpful and kind. Our room was cleaned very well everyday. The volcano view from our room was amazing! The breakfast everyday was delicious and had good variety. The hot springs were very relaxing. The location is not far from the city so it is easy to go out and get food or do activities. There was always parking available for our car."
Hotel Los Lagos Spa & Resort

"Muy bonito hotel, habitaciones grandes y con muchas actividades"

Volcano Lodge Hotel & Thermal Experience

"Nice hot spring outside of the room"
Hotel Secreto La Fortuna
10/10 Excellent
"I stayed at Hotel Secreto for one night as a part of my trip to Costa Rica and it is a great spot! It was beautiful, had delicious breakfast and the staff were excellent! I arrived around 11 with a shuttle from San Jose and they let me start the check in process early and held my backpack for me while I adventured until I was able to receive my key at normal check in time! When I made it back over it was drizzling and one of the kind reception workers actually walked me to my room with an umbrella. The next morning, I was waiting for my shuttle to Monteverde and another one of the reception workers actually called them to ensure my ride was on the way! I left around sunset for a hot spring reservation and got lucky with a gorgeous view of the volcano. And the next morning, I even saw a three toed sloth in the parking lot before getting into my shuttle!!"
Casa Luna Hotel & Spa
10/10 Excellent
"The staff were amazing and very knowledgeable about the area and all of the services offered and best tours to book. The tours directly through the hotel were staffed with interesting people who were very knowledgeable about their speciality as well as the country…very impressed with the whole experience!"
