Excellent Arenal Location

Wonderful location for a family stay around Arenal volcano. Extremely nice staff and just far enough off the beaten path to avoid crowds while still being close to it all.

Tyson, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very Nice Hotel off the beaten path. Tucked away on the hillside each room had a nice view of the volcano without seeing the other rooms. The room was big and nicely appointed and comfortable. The Hot tub was sparking clean and the outdoor shower room was a elegant touch. The staff was friendly and very helpful with room requests were handled very quickly. Parking is a bit tricky but it was just a short walk to your room. Each room had two BIG umbrellas for your use. Coffee service in room was ok and the mini fridge was really cold.

Amazing Stay at the Lost Iguana Resort & Spa

The Lost Iguana Resort & Spa was amazing! The resort property is a beautiful rain forest. They have a hiking trail through the property with a hanging bridge. There are flowering plants all over the property. We had a perfect view of Arenal Volcano from our balcony. It was a truly wonderful experience to stay here. The onsite restaurant was very good. We will return to this resort again!

Amazing setting and great location

This was one of our favorite hotels as we traveled through Costa Rica. The view from the room was incredible of the Arenal volcano and it was set in the rainforest. We woke up to seeing toucans flying around not far from our balcony. The location was a perfect for all of our activities of La fortuna. We would love to stay here again in the future if in the area.
