With La Fortuna Waterfall reachable in 5.7 km, Arenal Xilopalo offers accommodation, a restaurant, an outdoor swimming pool, a garden and a shared lounge. Both WiFi and private parking are accessible at the lodge free of charge.

Staff was amazing, all the place (room, balconies, gardens, etc.) were absolutely amazing! We were really sad to leave and next time we're in La Fortuna this is the place to go. Super comfortable room, amazing breakfast with 3 choices (pancakes/waffles, omelette or typical Costa Rica breakfast). The view is really beautiful. We just loved this place!

Surrounded by 860 private acres of tropical rainforest and featuring an on-site lake, a swimming pool, a sun terrace and games room, Arenal Observatory Lodge & Trails is located within the Arenal Conservation Area, only 2.7 km from the Arenal Volcano.

The location was absolutely stunning with amazing views of the Arenal volcano and lake. We loved the various hiking trails, one even led to a water fall where you could swim, so bring your swim suits! We saw so much wild-life nearby on our walks including coyotes, toucans and monkeys. The room was spacious and very comfortable. We loved every meal and found the staff to be super friendly and helpful, wish we could have stayed longer!

Eduardo and his Family were very kind and helped out with anything I needed. The place is very peaceful and in the middle of nature. It’s a little bit outside of the village - I recommend a car to get around. I recommend the typical breakfast, which was delicious and also dinner was a delight.

Kalambu Hot Springs is 7.8 km from the lodge, while Mistico Arenal Hanging Bridges Park is 23 km away. The nearest airport is Fortuna, 7 km from Cabañas Sueños del Arenal, and the property offers a paid airport shuttle service.

The property was perfect for us as a couple. Close to La Fortuna and far enough away that you were out of the busyness. The kitchen was stocked well enough to make simple meals. King bed was comfortable. The view of Arenal Volcano was amazing when it wasn’t too cloudy. The patio was sheltered from the rain so you could still enjoy coffee outside in the morning. Property felt secure with remote control opening and closing.

This eco lodge is located 1 km from the Arenal Volcano and 2 km from hot springs. It features an extensive garden, tours and outdoor activities arrangement and free Wi-Fi throughout.

Arenal Oasis Eco Lodge & Wildlife Refuge has an on-site restaurant serving local dishes and regional cuisine.

Everything. My plan behind staying at this property was to be in contact with nature and more specifically, to take the night tour and see snakes. We saw 6 snakes in total, plus a bunch of other animals (frogs, insects, spiders, etc…). Besides that, things that were great: staff was great, they gave us a better room than the one we got, wifi was actually great, breakfast was awesome, and the accommodation is not far from Downtown La Fortuna.

    The rainforest setting is so beautiful. The lodges are completely immersed. Dozens of birds can be heard. Three friendly dogs and 2 cats live on the property and come visit. We stayed in a 3 bedroom private lodge that had everything we needed to sleep comfortably and prepare food. The owner and staff are very responsive and help book tours and rides.

    These lodges are amazing value! The location and views are excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful, providing us with a packed breakfast on our first morning as we were leaving early for ziplining. The next breakfast was freshly cooked with options to suit everyone. Our chalet was a little dated but really large, clean and well furnished.

    The lodges are very comfortable. The ceiling fan works really well at keeping the room cool. The restaurant is nice and there are bird feeders next to the dining area where you can watch the birds as you eat. There is a small forest and garden area. They have more feeders in the garden which attracts a good variety of birds.

    Felt like a small piece of paradise - several lodges with sufficient space between, nicely maintained vegetation and natural-looking swimming pool with jacuzzi. We particularly enjoyed the quiet and bird-watching, including humming birds having breakfast from the flowers around the restaurant. We liked tge location - close to town, yet very quiet and full of nature/close to river.

    Lovely little budget place, close to town but not too close so was still nice and quiet. Our kids loved the small pools and generally had them to themselves. Breakfast was easy and staff were friendly. Lodges were comfy - fridge was much appreciated. The site is very attractive and overlooks the sloth sanctuary - we saw many while sitting at the pool. Great view of the volcano.

    Beautiful view and a great location if you have a car as it is a bit away from the main town. The lodges are super spacious. We really enjoyed the breakfast and the staff in the food hall! We ordered some evening food there too and it was delicious. The reception staff were absolutely lovely.
