Top Santa Rosa Hotel Reviews

Camino Verde Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in the only apartment. It. Was across the street from the rest of the hotel. OVery spacious. One l large bedroom with a queen size bed, living room with record player and a few old records, a sofa/ sleeper, open dining area, and kitchen with tableware, a few pots and pans, tableware… No dishrags or drying mat. Very cozy The staff friendly and helpful. Great home made breakfast. Great view all the way to the Atlántico 0cean. Very enjoyable stay. Great soda and convenience store next to hotel. The town is 5 mins walk from hotel. Quite A steep walk. The town does not have much to offer. Get the hotel to reserve activities for you. We did most of the planning and reservations by email."

Hotel Los Lagos Spa & Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Is very nice hotel and have a very good location."

Arenal Manoa & Hot Springs Resort

8/10 Good

"Very good location - easy to go into La Fortuna and other attractions. Out room is the Volcano Room which is basically a duplex connected with another half of villa. It is the front row of the villas with direct volcano cone view off the patio (we only see the volcano once in three days due to cloud and rain in the rainy season) the room is spacious, clean and well equipped with an oversized washroom. The management also provided a chocolate plate as a welcome gift, which is a nice touch. However we found the hot springs ponds not warm enough ( which was improved the next two days) the regular hot tub is much warmer in comparison…also the included breakfast is under par with non fresh fruits and foods. We still tipped the omelette station anyhow."

Koora Hotel by Sandglass

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very clean. We had an issue with our safety deposit box when we got there, but the staff was easy to contact and very quick to resolve the problem. Staff are very knowledgeable about the area and very helpful in booking activities. The included breakfast was delicious, so were the 2 dinners at the restaurant. Very friendly staff."

Sangregado Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Fine"

The Royal Corin Thermal Water Spa & Resort - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing hotel, very clean and very nice views on Arenal Volcano."

Tabacón Thermal Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. My partner and I went to celebrate our anniversary, and it was an excellent choice. The spa, the food, the hot springs—can't wait to go back and take more people with us. We had a couples massage and did yoga while we were there. Our massage therapists were excellent and the setting of the spa pagodas was idyllic. So relaxing and refreshing."

Arenal Observatory Lodge & Trails

10/10 Excellent

"It is a very beautiful and peaceful property away from all of the touristy stuff"

Hotel Linda Vista

10/10 Excellent

"El hotel estaba en muy buen estado, el personal fue muy atento incluso me buscaron un postre para el cumpleaños de mi amiga aunque avisé a último momento. Ellos limpian la habitación diario, la piscina está en buen estado y el desayuno es bueno aunque preferiria un poco más de variedad. La vista es espectacular aunque el camino para llegar tiene muchas curvas. Yo volvería sin pensarlo."
