While there might be occasional afternoon showers, mornings are usually clear, and you can often find better value on accommodation and tours. This period is great for couples who appreciate a slightly more relaxed pace and don't mind a bit of rain. ### Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia? ### How can I save on a Arenal hotel booking with Expedia? ### How much is the nightly rate at a Arenal hotel? ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - Accommodation - Flights - Packages - Other - [Aguacate Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aguacate-Hotels.d3000403377.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - [Gay-Friendly Hotels in Angeles ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Angeles-Hotels-Gay-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d553248635892160035-tGayFriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) - [Angeles Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Angeles-Hotels.d553248635892160035.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - [Gay-Friendly Hotels in Cañas ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Canas-Hotels-Gay-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d180423-tGayFriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) - [Cañas Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Canas-Hotels.d180423.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - [Gay-Friendly Hotels in Cantón Cañas ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Canton-Canas-Gay-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d553248635975748361-tGayFriendlyHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) - [El Coco Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/El-Coco-Hotels.d553248635975438449.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - [Libano Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Libano-Hotels.d553248635892155839.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - [Limonal Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Limonal-Hotels.d6361133.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - [Mata de Cana Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mata-De-Cana-Hotels.d6229350.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - [Naranjos Agrios Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Naranjos-Agrios-Hotels.d3000007684.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - [Nuevo Arenal Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nuevo-Arenal-Hotels.d6229352.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - [Palmira Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palmira-Hotels.d553248635974560122.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - [Quebrada Grande Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Quebrada-Grande-Hotels.d553248635892157878.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - [Sabalito Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sabalito-Tierras-Morenas-Hotels.0-n553248635976397142-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) - [Santa Rosa Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Rosa-Hotels.d829112758063620096.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - [Sierra Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sierra-Hotels.d553248635892154522.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - [Tierras Morenas Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tierras-Morenas-Hotels.d553248635892276836.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - [Tilaran Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tilaran-Hotels.d6159611.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - [Tronadora Hotels ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tronadora-Hotels.d3000007624.Travel-Guide-Hotels) - [Flights from Libano ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/553248635892155839/flights-from-libano) - [Flights from Tierras Morenas ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/553248635892276836/flights-from-tierras-morenas) - [Canas Park ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Canas-Park-Canas.d553248622620207969.Attraction) - [Cañas Holidays ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Canas.d180423.Holidays-City-Breaks) - [Visit Limonal ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Limonal.dx6361133) - [Visit Quebrada Grande ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Quebrada-Grande.dx553248635892157878) - [Visit Tronadora ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tronadora.dx3000007624) - [Things to do in Limonal ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Limonal.d6361133.Travel-Guide-Activities) - [Things to do in Tronadora ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Tronadora.d3000007624.Travel-Guide-Activities) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/mad-service/footer/bnaBanners/BEX_Footer.jpg) ## Go further with the Expedia app Save on select hotels when you book in the app. Our app deals help you to save on trips so you can travel more and manage it all on the go.
