With a spectacular view of the southeast side of the volcano, we have the advantage of being at a slightly higher altitude than La Fortuna, thus cooler. Also, we are off the main road enough to avoid the sound of grinding gears that are audible from almost all other hotels.
The rooms are very spacious (32m2) with 1 double and 1 single bed, a large private bath with hot water, screened windows, ceiling fans, verandas with table and chairs, and landscaped grounds abundant with tropical flowers and birds. Full breakfast, available lunches, horse rental, laundry, internet service and secure parking lot.
With us you will have the opportunity to enjoy and learn from Costa Rica’s mix of cultures. Come to know how tourism can be a positive influence on local communities. By hiring local guides, patronizing locally owned restaurants and lodges, and buying local handicrafts, you can help convince residents that wild and historical places are worth saving. We collaborate with conservation organizations and government agencies to find ways to improve Costa Rica’s environmental programs.
The lodge provides information about local tours: Bird Watching, Horseback Riding to the Waterfall, Canopy Adventure, Arenal Volcano, Mountain Biking, Caño Negro Wildlife Refuge, Hiking to Cerro Chato Lake, Boat Trip to Monteverde across the Arenal Lake, Arenal Reserve, Venado Caves, White Water Rafting, Tabacón Hot Springs Resort and more.
Owner/Proprietor, Miguel Zamora, is fluent in English, knowledgeable, and very helpful to guests directing them to attractions in the area and throughout Costa Rica.
If you are looking for the perfect place to rest, relax and enjoy yourself, then you have found it.
