Exceptional stay

We had an incredible stay at the Arenal Manoa Resort in the Chato Suite. The welcome and guest services were exceptional—warm, professional, and genuinely attentive. The staff made sure every part of our stay felt personalized and smooth. The Chato Suite itself was spacious, clean, and perfectly positioned with a breathtaking view of the Arenal Volcano. The private pool was secluded, clean, and a perfect spot to relax while enjoying the scenery. It added a luxurious, peaceful touch to our experience. Breakfast, included with the stay, was solid—plenty of options, fresh ingredients, and a pleasant setting with great views to start each day. Whenever we encountered a small issue or had a question, the staff responded quickly and efficiently. Their attention to detail and commitment to guest satisfaction was clear throughout our stay. Overall, the Arenal Manoa Resort delivered an unforgettable experience—comfortable accommodations, top-notch service, and stunning views. Highly recommended, especially the Chato Suite for that extra level of privacy and beauty.

The beds were very comfortable and our room was clean, well maintained and had a gorgeous view of the volcano. Great variety of breakfast options. Try the hot chocolate! Had a lovely massage by the river. The staff was truly amazing. Great people! My two nit-picky wishes for MANOA are: 1. Try a different dinner menu at Saca or chef-unfortunately the food was bland, lacked seasoning and needed salt. 2. Using electric vehicles would make for better air quality for those walking on the property.

Exquisite

Arenal Manoa is everything a resort should be. The staff is not only very well trained and polite, but they are competent and eager to help make your stay good, they also speak English very well. The facilities were immaculate. I found not a single detail that had been overlooked, the room was large, comfortable, and modern with a nice, large and private patio with amazing views. The breakfast buffet had something for everyone, plenty of fresh fruit, cereal, oatmeal, traditional Costa Rican dishes, sausage and eggs, and even an omelette station. The restaurant is a very nice place, although I found the selection just a bit limited and it might have made a difference if I was on an extended stay, but it was perfect for my needs. They make a great pizza, too, by the way. The only thing close to a complaint I had is really not a complaint at all. The thermal pools are not very "thermal" They were about 30 degrees (86 F) and while warm, it was basically like a heated pool and not the sizzling hot jacuzzi like water I had expected. But the pools themselves are beautiful. There are several of them and they are typically about 10' in diameter, perfect for an intimate afternoon. They also have the people from the pool come around to ask if you want drinks, which is a plus. I loved my stay here, and I think you will, too.
