“Great experience, Jeff and Jill”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 26, 2013

An amazing place with amazing people that really care. We traveled from Florida to Costa Rico for the first time and it was better than we imagined. The resort was one of the nicest we have ever been to and we travel a good deal so I feel comfortable saying this. The rooms were big and over the top beautiful with so many amenities you do not normally see, like DVD players, free movies and free wi-fi. The resort has so much to offer as far as activities. We loved the jungle cat tour and the monkeys in particular

“Best place we have been”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 26, 2013

Absolutely great time. Incredible service, food, views, pools, you name it they have it and its better than anywhere else. It is not that expensive as people say, 20 for buffet, sushi is a dollar more per roll than in states. 4.50 local beers. If you looking for a quite get away with not very many people around this is the place!

“Exceptional Resort”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 26, 2013

A resort that has everything! Large beautiful modern rooms with fantastic views of Arenal Volcano. Hot springs of various temperatures abound with waterfalls in a natural setting.. Offers plenty of outdoor activities on the property from horse back riding, white water rafting to tubing. I had a great deep tissue massage in the luxurious spa. Hotel is first class with great restaurants and great service. Would definitely go back.

Room Tip: All rooms face the volcano and are built into the hillside. A golf cart service is available if you...

“Excellent”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 23, 2013 via mobile

I had an outstanding time in this resort. I celebrated my 30th bday here and theres no other way i would've wanted to spend it. The service was on point. The food was very good. The springs were relaxing and perfect after a long day. John the manager was very nice and knowledgable and made my experience that much better. Overrall it was top knot ch. I recommend it to everyone young or old.

“Wonderful place to stay for a honeymoon!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 23, 2013

We went here as our first stop on our honeymoon and I only wish that we had stayed here the entire trip! The hot springs were incredible the room with a view was amazing and the dinner and bars were great! I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone who enjoys a classy nice place to stay free from stress, loud noise and the world. I felt like I was on a private island with just my husband.

Room Tip: Ask for a room with a view of the volcano
