Top Venado Caves Hotel Reviews

Volcano Lodge Hotel & Thermal Experience

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast goes from 6:40am-10:00am. great selection of food from rice, beans, chilaquiles, meats, plantains, fruit, cereals, there's even an omlette station and waffle station. Tea selections include black, green and herbal. Hot coffee and hot milk available as well. Juices usually were orange and some type of red (our guess was papaya). Filling because it is all you can eat. "

Arenal Paraíso Resort & Thermo Mineral Hot Springs

8/10 Good

"Overall, we loved this resort. First night in bad room located right next to construction/maintenance area and was very noisy. Do not stay in room 37! Hotel Mgr was very accommodating and upgraded us to a nicer and quieter room. Grounds are beautiful, and great view of Arenal volcano. Thermal springs (at least the top 2 pools) were lovely. Nice outdoor pool patio casual restaurant. Big breakfast buffet, all food was very good. I’d definitely recommend a stay here! And don’t miss Mistico Park which is near by!"

The Springs Resort and Spa at Arenal

8/10 Good

"El personal es excelente, un plus que tenga lavadora de ropa y secadora , los cuartos amplios , estacionamiento adecuado y de nuevo el personal hace el hotel , además de sus diferentes pisicinas térmicas. Los costos para desayuno, almuerzo , comida es un poco alto pero de muy buena calidad. Tomar en cuenta que todas las actividades son extras o pagadas a parte."

Hotel Mountain Paradise

8/10 Good

"Pros: the grounds are really lovely and the pool area is really nice. The male staff were all very cheerful and pleasant whereas the female staff were almost all somewhat scowling and unfriendly. I can’t figure out what that’s about but we all noticed the same. Cons: the food offered at the restaurant is mediocre, limited, and overpriced for what it is, even considering how all food in La Fortuna and in Costa Rica in general is surprisingly expensive. The dinning area while not unattractive, is not particularly attractive. The rooms, while large, leave much to be desired as well with no hooks etc to hang wet towels, a minuscule closet and no other options to store or organize clothes and other things. A bit of of common sense and better management could improve all of the above."
