      I don't know how you can choose better!”

      Arenal Manoa had it all! Beautifully manicured and spread out facilities (meaning I didn't see if we even had neighbors during our stay!). The pool area was more than enough and complete with a bar and pizza oven. The hot springs 'termals' were well done, and yes, a bar was there too. The restaurant was beautiful, plentiful variety and very well staffed. Our room was well apportioned with a fridge, coffee bar, big armoire for luggage/clothes, a couch, two tables, 2 chairs, 2 nightstands, a desk area, and a kingsize bed. With plenty of walking space. Large outside patio with 2 rocking chairs and a table. We sat there every morning and every evening for hours watching the birds and the volcano RIGHT THERE in front of us. Very nice bathroom amenities, a live plant next to the shower! And very very clean. All staff was wonderful, including COVID testing for the flight home. Again....I don't know how you can choose better!

      Wonderful views, beautiful complex ”

      We enjoyed our weekend stay in this wonderful place. Waking up to the views of the volcano, having a tasty traditional breakfast, not much of international choice though, like I could go with some fresh bread instead of the square toast bread, but that was not a big problem really as the choice was pretty big. They have cold and hot pools, which aren't next to each other, but we didn't mind, as we wanted to spend time in hot ones anyway. Staff friendly. I can't wait to visit this place again.

      Beautiful Gardens”

      This hotel is located a good distance from the little town, however, the grounds are absolutely beautiful, lots of flowers, birds and butterflies and a great view of the Volcano. Breakfast is great with lots of choices and local dishes included. If you want to experience hot springs, you have to go to specialized hot springs locations like Ecothermales and Tabacon. The hot springs at the hotel Arenal Manoa is only a warm pool, nothing to write home about. The food at the restaurant is okay and reasonably priced. You need to take a taxi to get into the town where there are lots of restaurants, supermarkets, souvenir shops etc.

      My mom, sister and I stayed here for just a couple of days before heading to the caribbean coast. We liked it so much that we came back after the coastal visit and stayed 3 more days. The grounds are incredible, staff super friendly and efficient, the rooms clean and spacious, and the food and drinks delicious. And just in general the whole place has such a good feeling that I will likely be back again sometime in the future. No complaints at all!

      Amazing stay if you’re looking to relax!”

      My fiancé and I loved ending our trip to Costa Rica here. It had hot springs and regular pool, both with swim up bars to eat and drink. Our room had a straight view of Arenal Volcano and was so breathtaking to wake up to every morning. The massages were also incredible and highly recommend. It was a private little cabana that overlooked the river where all you hear is the water flowing and sounds of nature. They don’t have much entertainment/nightlife but if you’re looking for pure relaxation, this is a place for you.

      I recommend this resort 100%. I am a hotel snob so please feel very comfortable booking here. The staff is very accommodating and friendly. They will take care of whatever you need. The rooms were very clean, comfortable and exotic feeling looking out at tropical foliage with a huge volcano, as you lay in bed or sit at the table outside your sliding doors. It is about a 3 hour drive from the airport so I think next time I would drive to San Jose the night before my flight. Great drive though! Don't be afraid to do it and you do not need a 4×4. So don't pay more for one.
