“The view of Arenal Volcano is undeniably the main draw, best enjoyed from the comfort of the rooms. Though somewhat basic, the cabins are clean and provide an immersive experience of the surrounding nature, especially the birdlife. The staff's friendliness and the restaurant's cuisine, are significant assets.”
