Arenal Waterfall Lodge

Arenal Waterfall Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"This place was incredible! Made me very nervous at first because there was no website and no one to call other than through the travel agency (please correct me if I’m wrong)… but the staff was so friendly, always smiling! The bungalows were stunning, spacious and have everything you need. Also, literally in the jungle! Fell asleep to the sound of animals every night and some rain. So peaceful. Also Geckos is AWESOME! Please help their shelter donate necessities and basics for the pups. You can volunteer too!"

"This place was so beautiful and peaceful! We went during rainy season and it was still soo pleasant! The greenery around the hotel was beautiful! We also felt very safe because they didn’t just let anyone come in after hours. It’s very peaceful walking around! The breakfast from the menu was the best! The buffet breakfast is okay. The staff was very helpful also and it was very clean! We have a great view of the volcano (when it decided to reveal itself) from our room"
