Hotel Lomas del Volcán

10/10 Excellent
"This place has a breathtaking view of the Arenal Volcano. A hike in the national park doesn’t even get you a close. The location was great, just 10 minutes from the hustle and bustle of La Fortuna. It felt like a jungle retreat more than a resort and the breakfast buffet was delicious."
