A magnificent vista of fire and smoke awaits you each morning at Arenal Volcano Inn. Enjoy a cup of locally grown coffee on a private terrace and watch the gray clouds crowning the summit of the volcano, as if to separate the verdant mountainsides below from the billows of smoke and ash above. Only at this charming boutique hotel can you enjoy the spectacle of Costa Rica's most active volcano from a private terrace or the sparkling pool and Jacuzzi.

Excellent for price
For a reasonable price, the service and room cleanliness were excellent. We had a very good view of the volcano from our room, but I am not sure if all rooms have that pleasure. The restaurant has plenty of variety for meals. Breakfast was pretty good too although the menu does not change much every day. The staff at the reception were very helpful in arranging tours and transfers. The hotel also has a 10% discount on all tours. The only not-so-great part is the pool - small with the surrounding ambience being not so great compared to other resorts. I would strongly recommend this inn if you are not a predominantly pool person.

Hotel Description
Stunning Views From Arenal Volcano Inn
A magnificent vista of fire and smoke awaits you each morning at Arenal Volcano Inn. Enjoy a cup of locally grown coffee on a private terrace and watch the gray clouds crowning the summit of the volcano, as if to separate the verdant mountainsides below from the billows of smoke and ash above. Only at this charming boutique hotel can you enjoy the spectacle of Costa Rica's most active volcano from a private terrace or the sparkling pool and Jacuzzi.
With just 25 rooms, this cozy retreat is perfect for anyone who wants to escape the daily grind. It's far enough from town for real peace and quiet, but close enough to satisfy your cravings for a little excitement. Start with a couple's massage at the Garden Spa and let the tropical locale set the tone for the traditional relaxation techniques. Or maybe you'd rather sample the marine seaweed, volcanic mud and aloe vera wrap to nurture your skin.
For families on vacation, the kids will be happy to know that they can have pizza or spaghetti for dinner at Que Rico Arenal Ristorante & Pizzeria. Parents can enjoy food meant for more discriminating tastes, such as the steamed fish fillet topped with amaretto, almonds and butter. Or if you feel really adventurous, order casado--a typical Costa Rican dish with rice, beans, cheese, fried plantains and salad.
You'll find lots of exciting things in this area of Costa Rica. La Fortuna is just a few miles to the south and east of Arenal Volcano Inn. Hiking enthusiasts love the trails on the more active northwest side of the volcano. If you like horses and waterfalls, you'll love a horseback riding tour that takes you to the breathtaking, 213-ft La Fortuna Waterfall.
After a day of adventure, you'll be pleased by the comfort of the Standard Room. Sitting on the private terrace with its great view is the perfect way to unwind and plan tomorrow's adventures!
