We had a mega combo tour which included Rio Fortuna waterfalls, hiking on Arenal vulcano, canopy tour with hanging bridges and hot springs. Our guide Charlie was incredible!!!!! Very cheerful and sympa, he’s really the right guy to build a team! He’s also many expert: he found for us 3 tarantulas in their hole! We will always remember this day with pleasure😁

Great location and courtyard. However, we booked 2 “ Deluxe” rooms. 2 beds and a bathroom. They hand you 2 bath towels. No washcloths or hand towels. We had sheets and one thin blanket but our friends only had a sheet on their bed! They also had one tiny wastebasket in the bathroom, and since you can’t put anything in the toilets here, that’s a problem! Diago ( who checked us in)was terrific. Welcome drink is a four ounce strawberry daiquiri, literally served in a small plastic champagne glass. The grounds are well done, just wish they would put a little effort into the rooms.
