Small resort with pool and larger warm 'hot spring' water pool with swim up bar. Great views of Arenal when no fog/clouds around. Easy to get around, though not flat. Each room is it's own building. Room was basic without a lot luggage space. Bath was fine with hot shower and small sink. Covered balcony/patio on back of each facing Arenal. Breakfast was quick with 4-5 options from Omelet to Pancakes and was offered at your choice of 7-8am or 8-9. Dinner was good with reasonable prices and we ate there both nights. Road sign can be hard to notice. Though google maps worked well.

Beautiful property in a beautiful area. The little casitas were not the most comfortable however the location, service, on-site hot springs and great views more than compensated. The on-site restaurant served good food and had a very relaxing atmosphere.

The best hotel we could’ve hoped for. Every room has a view of Arenal Volcano, as do the restaurant and pools area. The best part was having a hot spring in the property and getting to use it every day after excursions. It was also great to soak in a hot spring while using the pool. Service was great and everyone was friendly. I would definitely go back!

Wonderful views of the volcano from the casitas, pool and restaurant, privacy, excellent, breakfast and coffee every morning, the friendliest staff, who really went above and beyond for me. Great location if you don’t want to be right downtown but want to be close enough. Not walkable to town but easy to take an affordable Uber as long as you don’t stay out too late. Ubers will stop running!

A must stay! The entire staff was stellar. When we arrived the service for the entire stay operated a high level. The restaurant provided high quality food and service. The pools were clean and we loved the on property Thermal pool. Estrella, Marianna, Kevin, Ryan, Felipe, Keylor and Randall are staff you must meet on your stay. Wi-Fi is available and reliable! The only thing that I would recommend is brush up on your Spanish because satellite tv is provided, but in Spanish which tested my skills (lol). A plus is from any location on the property you have a spectacular view of Arenal volcano, especially in the morning for breakfast and at sunset for dinner. I would definitely recommend this hidden jewel!

Great views and ok enough hotel for the price. However, two very bad things for us where that 1. the hot springs at the hotel were green and disgusting, we didn't went in (visited others in the same area with clear water and clean pools) and 2. We were on vacation, we wanted to relax, not do alarms and early runing around, so our breakfast was included, we got to the restaurant at 8:30 am (the fact that we didnt want an early morning does not mean we spleep until noon) and the guy at kitchen told us they were closing at 8:40 so very sorry for us but no breakfast service, and indeed we were serve none. Not the type of service and treatment you will expect at a retreat hotel where the only reason they get people in is vacations.
