Our stay in this Bungalow was magical! We enjoyed the most incredible sunsets from the balcony, with spectacular views and magnificent birds right in front!
The Bungalow itself was very… read more modern, clean and really had the best view around the lake! The whole hotel area was carefully thought of, and well taken care of. After our traveling in the jungle, this was the best possible place to relax and cool down.
The Owner Bastian was so very nice, he even showed us around and always had great stories and helpful tips for us.
Breakfast was incredibly good, with self made yoghurt and the staff was absolutely charming!

We would love to come again and recommend this place to anybody who loves nature and quiet!
Thank you for everything and all the very best! More

  This place was the bomb! Beautiful room, great food, wonderful hosts, and an amazing view. Super clean and comfortable, we enjoyed our afternoon just sitting on the deck in the… read more sun drinking beer and watching birds. Don’t hesitate in booking; you’ll love this place!

  This was such a beautiful find, and Julio and his mother are oh so lovely! Big smiling faces and genuine guidance throughout. We in fact skipped on adventures and extended… read more our stay so we could keep waking up to this view (and closing our days with it)! The rooms are wonderful little nests in the sky, and so peaceful. Also, tip– make sure you take at least one dinner with Julio– I am not very easily blown away (I think), but Julio’s dishes were beautiful and delicate and delectable! One of the places I will mark down as a sanctuary for future visits.

  Highlight of our Costa Rica trip! Beautiful and tropical. Hotel owner is welcoming and always available. Arrived late our first night and had a romantic personalized meal overlooking the lake.… read more Breakfast is amazing. When eating here, just say “yes”! Everything is great. The amazing stay was worth it for breakfast and dinners alone, also the view alone. 100% recommend. Lots of options in the area but this is worth the travel. Enjoyed myself more here than any 5 star resort.

  These bungalows were outstanding! It is impeccably clean, modern, and a very well-maintained property. The view is absolutely gorgeous. I have attached a photo that shows the view from… read more our balcony. There are only 5-6 bungalows, so it’s very quiet and private. The owners were extremely sweet and accommodating. They were helpful with sightseeing tips and suggestions too! Make sure you eat there, as the food is delicious and all made there from scratch! We will definitely be back!

  The view at this location is absolutely jaw dropping. Opening my eyes up in the morning to that view was insane! I stayed here with my boyfriend and we had… read more a lovely experience. The owners are so considerate and kind. Their communication was great and they were even able to get us into our room a bit early considering we arrived before check in.
The wildlife is great in this spot. I saw a ton of colorful birds, cows, a horse, and a toucan flew directly in front of my face!
Now the only thing I would consider a drawback is that the location can be challenging to get to. But at the same time, that is also what makes this a perk. It is not located in the main part of town (La Fortuna) where tourist life is bustling with restaurants and stores. The town it is in is called Nuevo Arenal. At the bottom of the hill it sits on there are only a couple of restaurants, one souvenir shop, and a small mercado store. It would be extremely helpful to rent a car if you are staying in Nuevo Arenal because getting a taxi to come get you and take you back can be difficult and pricey.
With that being said, I would not have changed my decision to stay here. The owners were so gracious, the location is out of this world, and the wildlife is amazing. It was beyond peaceful and I will never forget it.

  I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to stay around the La Fortuna/Arenal area. Absolutely stunning view! Going to sleep and waking up with such breathtaking views is totally… read more amazing.

The owners are the best hosts you can wish for. Very friendly and always ready to help.

We will be back!!!

  I have to say this is one of the most amazing places we have ever stayed at. The location is stunning and very peaceful. From the moment we arrived… read more to the time we left we felt welcomed and part of a really great place. Anna the owner provides outstanding customer service, she is so very kind and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. She even took us unto town and came back to get us. We arranged transport and Jose picked us up and was very friendly and helpful. The food is delicious and we had dinner there most nights. Breakfast is very good and always presented well and tasty. A very BIG thanks to Anna, Bastian, Jose and the team for making our stay so very memorable. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED More

  Who did these people pay to write the good reviews? First, you cannot get there without 4wheel drive. The road up is unbelievably bad. Next, the rooms… read more are smelly and the bedding stinks to high heaven. The food is greasy and overcooked. Ugh. The owners don’t seem to care.

  What a beautiful place. The room was delightful and we could have looked at the views non stop. And have plenty of pictures to prove it. … read more The breakfasts are delicous, the coffee superb. We chose to eat dinner there as well when we stayed at Hotel Laguna after our sight seeing days, and were not disappointed!! And Anna is delightful to talk to!
