The stay at Eco Arenal very pleasant and beautiful. The grounds are well kept with lovely local flowers and plants. The location is perfect, out of the hustle and bustle of town, but only a few minute drive to get to everything around. Would recommend staying here.

The location is excellent, offering a clean and modern room, and a superb breakfast with a wide array of choices. The staff provided exceptional service, demonstrating both friendliness and helpfulness. Its proximity to downtown is convenient, yet it is sufficiently removed to provide a sense of natural tranquility.

Clean room and property. Very peaceful and quiet. Close to most attractions. Everyone was hospitable and friendly. Only suggestion would be to improve the breakfast setup. The spread was great, but several food items, especially fruits, were uncovered and there were fruit flies all over them. Overall, a beautiful place!

We had such a great experience at Eco Arenal. We stayed for 5 nights as a family with three kids and it was perfect. The room was very clean, shower was very modern, beds were comfortable, and we never got tired of the many options available at the daily breakfast. The hotel is an oasis, just close enough to bustle of La Fortuna and all the activities but remote enough where you wake up to the sounds of the monkeys and can see plethora of birds flying around.
