Top Venado Caves Hotel Reviews

Hotel Los Lagos Spa & Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Is very nice hotel and have a very good location."

Arenal Manoa & Hot Springs Resort

8/10 Good

"Very good location - easy to go into La Fortuna and other attractions. Out room is the Volcano Room which is basically a duplex connected with another half of villa. It is the front row of the villas with direct volcano cone view off the patio (we only see the volcano once in three days due to cloud and rain in the rainy season) the room is spacious, clean and well equipped with an oversized washroom. The management also provided a chocolate plate as a welcome gift, which is a nice touch. However we found the hot springs ponds not warm enough ( which was improved the next two days) the regular hot tub is much warmer in comparison…also the included breakfast is under par with non fresh fruits and foods. We still tipped the omelette station anyhow."

Sangregado Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Fine"

The Royal Corin Thermal Water Spa & Resort - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing hotel, very clean and very nice views on Arenal Volcano."

Tabacón Thermal Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. My partner and I went to celebrate our anniversary, and it was an excellent choice. The spa, the food, the hot springs—can't wait to go back and take more people with us. We had a couples massage and did yoga while we were there. Our massage therapists were excellent and the setting of the spa pagodas was idyllic. So relaxing and refreshing."

Hotel Arenal Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay. Long way up the mountain, but once you get there its a great view!! The bar closes at 8:00 pm, so if you are in the middle of a pool game, too bad!! The lights are out and you have to leave!!"

Volcano Lodge Hotel & Thermal Experience

10/10 Excellent

"Excelente como siempre"

Montaña de fuego Mountain Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Great resort! We stayed for 7 nights with the all-inclusive package. The food and drinks were incredible, and ALL staff were lovely and a pleasure to see every day. There was confusion with the all-inclusive package vs. the premium all-inclusive package, that was mis conveyed upon booking. Overall we were very pleased with our booking and stay, but would encourage to check the details of your booking prior to. It gets BRIGHT early in the day, and our room did not have any blackout curtains. Highly recommend packing an eye mask if you would like to sleep in. The views were absolutely AMAZING. I am so happy I found this resort & so happy we booked our stay here."
