This place was an absolute gem just outside of La Fortuna. The grounds were bigger and more beautiful than we expected based on the photos. The staff were attentive and so lovely to chat with (thank you so much Jose and Fernanda for making our stay so special). The eight thermal pools were lovely for an afternoon dip, and we loved that we could sit at the swim up bar or be in the covered hot tub when the afternoon rains came. Our room was spacious and the wife loved the hammock and the jacuzzi. Thank you to the housekeeping staff for restocking our coffee, providing meringues, and making fun little towel animals each day. WiFi worked well, parking was easy, and we loved opening the screen door and listening to the rain each afternoon. Our absolute favorite part of the resort was the sloths. We saw them twice near the front office and got lucky to catch one crossing the road just before we left which was such an amazing end to our trip! The only negative about this resort is the prices in the bar and restaurant. The dinner quality is okay, but we had much better quality dishes in town. Drinks are very spendy so we didn’t spend as much time at the resort or by the pool as we thought we would give how expensive they were. We really wanted to like La Saca, but having two meals there with very dry chicken, we were a little disappointed. However the staff at the restaurant were amazing! We will absolutely return to the property on our next visit to La Fortuna!

It was our family vacation, and we all had an amazing time at this resort! Everyone was super happy with our stay. On our last night, the resort surprised us with a complimentary dinner — the food was delicious! The staff were friendly, helpful, and very responsive. If you have a rental car, you can conveniently drive and park right in front of your room, which was a big plus for us. Each room also has a balcony, and you can see the volcano right from your bed first thing in the morning — absolutely breathtaking!

My friends and I stayed at Arenal Manoa for a girls trip in the off season (September) and we had a fantastic time. The resort, is stunning, from the amenities to the views and food everything was really well done. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time and were so friendly, we particularly wanted to shout out housekeeping for their personal touches!

Family vacation.

We stayed here for a family vacation. It was such a beautiful place to stay. You walk out of room and you feel like you are the o Ly one there. The spring pools on property were amazing and they come and serve you drinks in the pool. The main dining hall is open and you can watch the wildlife (and volcano if it’s visible) right there when you eat.

The staff and the cleaning were impeccable. The breakfast was amazing that was included with the stay and while I didn't use the VIP credit it didn't really cover one service so it just didn't seem as worth it to me. It was still a wonderful stay. The hot springs were not as hot as I would expect but it's a natural temperature so it was nice just having the bar located near the pool.
