About the neighborhood

Located in Peñas Blancas, Arenal Vista Lodge is in the business district and on a lake. While the natural beauty of Lake Arenal and Arenal Volcano can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can check out Baldi Hot Springs. Arenal Eco Zoo and Butterfly Conservatory are also worth visiting. Kayaking and windsurfing offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with mountain biking and cave exploring nearby.
