Surrounded by 860 private acres of tropical rainforest and featuring an on-site lake, a swimming pool, a sun terrace and games room, Arenal Observatory Lodge & Trails is located within the Arenal Conservation Area, only 2.7 km from the Arenal Volcano.

The views and the staff where fantastic. The location of the resort is amazing, quiet and right beside the volcano, right in a rain/cloud forest. Beautiful walks and hikes and they can arrange events if you like.

Breakfast is available every morning, and includes à la carte, continental and American options. At the lodge you will find a restaurant serving local and Grill BBQ cuisine. Vegetarian and dairy-free options can also be requested.

The stuff was super friendly and prepared the best casado we had during our trip to costa rica (have to try the homemade chilie sauce). Also unexpectedly good was the included free frog spotting tour. Even though the chalets were rather tiny they felt spacious and were indeed very private. This is definitely no 5-Star Hotel but as best as eco-friendly individual tourism could get.

Jay and Nohelia were amazing - we couldn't have asked for more. They cooked incredible food in the morning for breakfast which you can eat whilst watching the wildlife and there is also the option to eat in the evening. They gave us brilliant recommendations to see things in the area and were genuinely one of the nicest couples & hosts we have ever met! The location is a bit off road so bring a 4x4 but once you are there, it's peaceful and beautiful. The room we had was well equipped and clean. 100% would recommend!!

    The rainforest setting is so beautiful. The lodges are completely immersed. Dozens of birds can be heard. Three friendly dogs and 2 cats live on the property and come visit. We stayed in a 3 bedroom private lodge that had everything we needed to sleep comfortably and prepare food. The owner and staff are very responsive and help book tours and rides.

    These lodges are amazing value! The location and views are excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful, providing us with a packed breakfast on our first morning as we were leaving early for ziplining. The next breakfast was freshly cooked with options to suit everyone. Our chalet was a little dated but really large, clean and well furnished.

    The lodges are very comfortable. The ceiling fan works really well at keeping the room cool. The restaurant is nice and there are bird feeders next to the dining area where you can watch the birds as you eat. There is a small forest and garden area. They have more feeders in the garden which attracts a good variety of birds.

    Felt like a small piece of paradise - several lodges with sufficient space between, nicely maintained vegetation and natural-looking swimming pool with jacuzzi. We particularly enjoyed the quiet and bird-watching, including humming birds having breakfast from the flowers around the restaurant. We liked tge location - close to town, yet very quiet and full of nature/close to river.

    Lovely little budget place, close to town but not too close so was still nice and quiet. Our kids loved the small pools and generally had them to themselves. Breakfast was easy and staff were friendly. Lodges were comfy - fridge was much appreciated. The site is very attractive and overlooks the sloth sanctuary - we saw many while sitting at the pool. Great view of the volcano.

    Beautiful view and a great location if you have a car as it is a bit away from the main town. The lodges are super spacious. We really enjoyed the breakfast and the staff in the food hall! We ordered some evening food there too and it was delicious. The reception staff were absolutely lovely.
