As the title suggests-
it was good.
Pros: hotel property is beautiful, nice to have hot springs right there, the bartenders at the pool bar were very nice.A/C worked well. Delicious breakfast and Plato tipicos at the restaurant.
Cons: SO far from town. You will spend
at a minimum 5k colones, or $10 at the least, to get into town. The hot springs were lukewarm. Hotel staff seemed to be annoyed by having to do their jobs.

At the end of the day, I would recommend staying in la fortuna and using your money for a trip to baldi or tabacon.

The other thing the Internet and guidebooks did not say was that the volcano is currently
dormant. Nothing much to see from the resort at night.

Beautiful grounds with views of the volcano. Thermal hot spring pools landscaped to give privacy with varied temperatures so you can find the perfect temperature to suite you.. No need to pay extra to visit other hot springs in the area! The standard room was large, clean and well appointed. Nice hiking trails on the grounds where you can see monkeys. The restaurant has very good food and reasonably priced for a resort. Staff are very pleasant and accommodating.

A beautiful property facing the Arenal volcano in an area that hasn't yet been blasted off the face of the earth and is probably not likely to be, unlike others in this area. Great rooms in a beautiful setting, several regular pools and a chain of volcanic hot springs pools coming down the side of the hill--really nice. Pool bar, wet or dry, nice restaurant. Jumping off point for quite a number of activities in the area. Fast laundry service for those who have nothing to wear after several days in the rainforest. Our rooms were super clean and bug-free and there was ample hot water. No extra charge for the friendly cats on the porch.

The hotel room was not 5 star but was good enough for the short amount of time we were in the room. They room had some bugs and ants but was otherwise clean. The natural hot springs were cooler than I thought they would be but still a very nice part of this hotel. This meant we didn't have to pay extra to visit another hotel for their hot springs. The people were very nice but didn't speak great English and couldn't accommodate my food allergies. The free breakfast was very nice however.
