Arenal Oasis Eco Lodge & Wildlife Refuge - La Fortuna

The cottages were spacious and clean, providing a comfortable accommodation. the restaurant served a delicious variety of meals, including tasty vegetarian options. - the location of the hotel was great, surrounded by nature and offering a peaceful atmosphere.

The lack of English-speaking staff at the restaurant made it difficult to communicate and receive proper service. The wait time for breakfast was long, and the staff seemed busy and unattentive.

the perfect birdwatching and wildlife lover's paradise, the cabins at arenal oasis eco lodge & wildlife refuge are clean, comfortable, and immersed in the sounds of the forest. the friendly staff goes above and beyond to ensure a wonderful dining and overall experience. we will definitely be back!

We got great value for our money with a comfortable cabin, spacious rooms, and our own kitchenette and bathrooms. The location was perfect, giving us an authentic Costa Rican experience with beautiful walking paths and wildlife right at our doorstep. The staff was friendly and helped us arrange amazing nature tours.

Breakfast items could have been more varied.

Es gibt nichts, was man nicht lieben könnte.

I had such a magical experience at this Eco Lodge. The friendly and informative staff made me feel welcome from the moment I arrived. The bungalow nestled in the forest was perfect for reconnecting with nature. The restaurant, rainforest stroll, and bird watching tours were amazing. The wildlife sightings during breakfast and on the trails were a highlight. The staff, including Kevin, were enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The kitchen staff prepared delicious food, even making special birthday pancakes for my daughter. The location was secluded yet easily accessible by taxi. Pura Vida!

100% Recommend this hotel.

The lodge has a friendly staff, excellent breakfast, and the option for bird watching. There are jungle trails, ponds with exotic frogs and snakes, and a fun Frog Night Walk. the cleaning team creates cute towel figures with flowers on the bed. Convenient parking is available.

Felt relaxed, no reason to complain.

We had an incredible experience staying at Arenal Oasis Eco Lodge & Wildlife Refuge. the staff went above and beyond to make our anniversary trip extra special. the cottages were spacious, clean, and comfortable. We loved the variety of delicious vegetarian options served in the restaurant for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Breakfasting with the birds was a highlight for us, as we got to see and photograph a wide variety of beautiful birds attracted by the fruit put out by the staff. the night/frog tour was a pleasant surprise, with Juan and Oscar providing us with their extensive knowledge and assistance in capturing the perfect wildlife shots. we can't recommend this lodge enough and would definitely return. Cons: Hard to think of anything 🤔.

Great breakfast and a unique experience in the rainforest. Love how the lodge is focused on preserving flora and fauna and educating others about it. the cabin design is excellent for hearing the sounds of nature at night.

The bathroom lacked a convenient place to put toiletries and there was no desk or table in the cabin.

our stay at the eco lodge surpassed all expectations. nestled in the forest, we were surrounded by abundant wildlife, especially the mesmerizing hummingbirds. the spacious and clean cabins, complete with a fridge and safe, made us feel right at home. the delicious food served in the open-air dining room meant we didn't have to venture into town. the friendly staff organized an unforgettable sloth tour, and the on-site nature trail was a wonderful bonus.

distance from town, but short cab ride

We stayed at Arenal Oasis and had an incredible time. The wooden chalets in the forest setting were absolutely stunning. We were welcomed warmly at reception and the staff were all very friendly. The room was clean and had lovely rustic furniture. The large bathroom had a great hot shower. The breakfast was delicious with a choice of main plate and fruit. The restaurant had good food at reasonable prices. We loved watching the birds and wildlife while eating. We would definitely stay again and wish we could have stayed longer.

I do recommend this hotel.

I loved the value for money at this rainforest oasis. The cabin was clean, comfortable, and had all the necessary amenities. The location was perfect, surrounded by nature and wildlife. The staff treated us with great hospitality, making our stay more fun.

Breakfast choices could have been more diverse.

The room was spacious and had 2 double beds. The patio had rocking chairs. The restaurant service was excellent. We saw more than 30 different types of bird in 2 days thanks to the bird feeders and the extra large hummingbird garden. The trails were well organized and we enjoyed the frog tour where we saw 11 different types of frog. The laundry service was convenient and the food at the restaurant was so good that we ate there for all our meals. it was a very good experience, especially for a family with kids.

We felt welcomed into the family and had no reason to complain.

Good value for money and friendly staff

Convenient location and close to nearby attractions. Enjoyed the unique rainforest experience

Lack of mosquito nets and noisy neighbor dogs. Ugly bathroom and worn-out bed.

Great location. Quiet and relaxing. Super friendly staff. Excellent food. Beautiful birds feeding. Knowledgeable wildlife guides. Rustic and eco-friendly. Clean and well-equipped rooms

Nothing at all.

I recently stayed at Arenal Oasis Eco Lodge for a week-long family vacation. The log cabin was beautiful and the nature trails right at our doorstep were a big hit with the kids. Alan at the restaurant was fantastic - he made us feel so welcome and was great with our children. The beds were incredibly comfortable and spacious, and the shower had plenty of hot water. We loved being surrounded by the jungle and seeing wildlife during breakfast and on the trails. The hummingbird garden was a highlight for my husband. All of the staff were friendly and helpful, and Kevin's night trail was both exciting and educational. I was also pleased to find that we could easily book tours directly from the hotel. The restaurant offered good food at reasonable prices, and our room had all the amenities we needed, including nets to keep out insects. our stay at Arenal Oasis Eco Lodge exceeded our expectations and provided a truly amazing environment for our nature-filled vacation.

Totally recommend this hotel.
