"Amazing good. The thermal experience is worth it! Views of the volcano and wildlife I felt relaxed and connected with nature! Friendly staff with amazing and recommendations on activities and local food Amazing time!!"

"Great all round, with even better views of Mt Arenal when the clouds disappeared !!"

"From the moment we arrived at Amor Arenal—welcomed by Abigail’s calming energy after our long drive from San José—to the moment we checked out, everything was exceptional. Every team member we met was warm and attentive. Crystal stood out for her friendly, knowledgeable guidance on the local wildlife; Griselda for her restorative, soulful wellness session; and Jhonny for his consistently kind and thoughtful service. The team at El Rancho was also wonderful, and the food was outstanding—fresh, flavourful, and beautifully authentic. Every meal impressed us. Our spa experience was memorable as well—from the soothing aromas and ginger-lemon tea to the Sleepy Sloth ritual with Tibetan bowls, hot stones, and essential oils. And our casita was the true highlight: beautifully designed, with incredible volcano views from both the private hot pool and the breathtaking shower. The only regret was that we didn’t stay longer…could not recommend this destination more. "

"The view was amazing. Service was great. Clean. Safe. "

"Courteous and kind staff Beautiful and well maintained hot spring pools - not sure if it's because it's not high tourist season or if they are making sure things are well kept Large breakfast selection We had a rental car but hotel provides a convenient shuttle all day and night "

"Hotel and staff were excellent. We had to ask management to quiet down a group of drunks who took their own speakers to pool and spent 3 hours screaming like animals. The second we asked, the hotel did everything right and addressed the situation in a classy and professional way. It was well handled. Not hotel’s fault— shame on the people. "

"Free breakfast was amazing! Our room was unreal and the service is the best I’ve ever had. Only issue was there was no nightly entertainment. Or at least I didn’t see any? "

"Hidden tropical paradise! The room and amenities were lovely, and the staff went out of their way to make the experience wonderful. The view of the volcano was excellent too. Ended up seeing a sloth and toucans on site which was a bonus. Much appreciation to the hotel staff. "

"Very quiet place, good atmosphere "
