"Enjoyed our stay, great location and love the hot springs bar!"

"Fabulous hotel and resort. Big, comfortable and clean rooms. Outstanding and outstandingly friendly staff. Great thermal hot tubs and pool. Excellent food. Do not hesitate to book this place. Worth the money. "

"Lovely rooms and very comfortable beds. Wish the hot tubs were more functional. Manager Juan went out of his way to make us comfortable after a delay in transportation. All staff were very sweet and helpful. The hotel has a bar which is not used cause its not advertised much. It has the opportunity to even convert to a club or lounger.. awesome design there."

"Wonderful place!!! Beautiful Volcano views and grounds are so colorful and immaculate!! Great service. Buffet breakfast was amazing and included. Loved restaurant, every dish was delicious. Didnt even bother wandering out of resort to each. VERY REASONABLE prices on food and drinks! Try a Monkey Business drink!!! Only $6"

"The beauty and phenomenal amenities were only surpassed by the excellence and kindness of the staff! Pros: each room is oriented towards a breathtaking view of the Volcan Arenal so that, if you're so inclined, you can sit on your balcony from early morning until sunset enjoying the various moods of the mountain. The rooms are spacious and well apportioned with high vaulted ceilings, very comfortable beds, and many extra amenities (and spotlessly clean). Morning breakfast is nothing short of phenomenal with offerings for every taste served in the main dining room with 20 ft windows opening up to views of the volcano. The numerous pools and hot springs on the property were immaculately clean, not crowded and had plenty of relaxation areas. That said, the best part of the stay hands down was the staff. Professional, kind, extremely attentive and above all friendly, their efforts catapulted this stay into something so memorable! Cons: while a minor point, the restaurant needs some re-tooling in their menus for lunch and dinner as the fare is fairly pedestrian and to our palate, bland for Costa Rica. A better bet is the nightly BBQ offered by the pool- tons of good food and a wonderful atmosphere. Overall: having stayed at both Tabacon and Arenal Kioro, this is far and away the better of the two for value, excellence and location (it is much closer to the volcano than Tabacon). Thank you for the wonderful stay! "

"Our room had an amazing view of Arenal and was very large and comfortable for our family of 4. The warm pool and swim up bar was awesome. The hotel is a bit far from town, so be prepared to drive into town in the evenings for dinner. "

"This is a very clean place with good customer service and thoughtful touches. The best room they have is worth it with a direct view of Volcano Arenal and a private hot tub. Well done."

"The gold carts to get around "

"We absolutely loved this spot! It’s really hard to know which is the best when looking online, but we would say this is one of your best options if the following are considerations: 1) value - the cost vs value is certainly there. This is a very affordable yet very clean and comfortable hotel. We were very impressed. 2) Breakfast was included! Breakfast each morning was served. Eggs, Bacon, Pancakes and Fruits + Coffee and Juice. They were willing to accommodate/adjust the meal how you liked. You could request items not to be included if you had an allergy, and you could also ask for a little extra of something. Again, the value is 100% here. 3) Location - only a couple blocks from the Main Street. Close to grocery stores where you can buy very reasonably priced fruits, coconuts, etc. Great coffee shops and treats like ice cream close by. The other great thing about this location is it’s quiet at night. No loud music, you could hear the animals and are still close enough to all amenities. 4) view/amenities - view was superb and grounds are well maintained and lush. Volcano is right in view each morning. Pool is great for a cool down. I would say only big enough for one family at a time, but didn’t seem to be an issue during our stay. Free parking. 4) Service - very good. The people who work hear are gems. Very helpful, will do their best to assist and recommend items to get you a better deal. "
