Arenal Observatory Lodge & Trails

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful place to relax and enjoy nature, clean rooms , delicious food and friendly staff."

Camino Verde Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"What a great place at a great location. The rooms were super comfortable. My wife was sick when we arrived but rested and got better. The location is great for getting around, but also a great place to sit as well. It has a sort-of hostel feel but with all private rooms and very clean and organized. We both recommend Camino Verde B&B"
