Hotel Faro Arenal

LLEGAMOS ANTES DEL HORARIO PARA EL CHECK INN Y SU PERSONAL MUY AMABLE NOS RECIBIO Y PROCURO TENER LAS HABITACIONES LISTAS. EL PERSONAL ES MUY AMABLE Y ATENTO A LAS NECESIDADES DE UNO. LAS HABITACIONES AMPLIAS, CONFORTABLES Y LIMPIAS. NO HAY ABSOLUTAMENTE RUIDO SALVO EL DE LA NATURALEZA. EL DESAYUNO AUNQUE NO INCLUIDO DE MUY BUENA CALIDAD Y CANTIDAD. QUEDAMOS MUY COMPLACIDOS EN GENERAL DE ESTE HOTEL DEL CUAL NO TENIAMOS MUCHAS EXPECTATIVAS

Beautifully maintained gardens. Breakfast was very delicious. Room was comfortable with AC. Convenient location to get to other attractions around the area.

It's a decent property with simple and clean rooms. Location is right out of town, quiet and convenient. Breakfast is adequate. It's fun to watch birds in the garden while having breakfast because the staff put out fruit for the birds every morning. I got some nice bird photos out of it. The only complain I have is that, the second night I was woken up by "Happy Birthday" songs in various language close to 11PM - apparently some staff member's birthday and my room was right across from the breakfast area where the celebration was going on. Then it's loud conversations and laughter. I complained, and they stopped after a short while. However, afterwards there were sounds from some sort of repair outside until around 12:30AM - it kept me wide awake and I was unable to fall asleep after that. It's just too bad the place seems not to observe "quiet time". Otherwise it's a nice place.

The property is family owned and operated and they do an exceptional job to make sure the guests are happy. Only issue was the hot water mechanism did not heat the shower water enough. We were very happy with the breakfast choices. The restaurant had wonderful views of the birds (attracted to the fruit set out for them). We only stayed one evening, but would stay again if we return to the area. They do not have their own hot springs, but the area has several places you can choose from if you want that option.

These little huts are like private cottages and close to town. The birds on the grounds are amazing; saw 4 toucans and other neon blue birds... we saw more than we saw on our hike to the mountain. Lol. Also they have an amazing gardens that surround you. Overall very good stay.

Lovely and knowledgable hosts, friendly staff, great breakfasts and outstanding location. highly recommend.

The couple who own this property go out of their way to make sure you have a wonderful stay. Our room was very clean and cozy. The surrounding property was well maintained with beautiful gardens. Great view of volcano from property. The breakfast each morning was amazing. If you are feeling ambitious walking to la Fortuna takes 30-45 mins or is a affordable cab ride. If I return to this area I would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful grounds, The owners were very accommodating when our flight was delayed and arranged for us to gain access to the property. The cabins are clean but you can hear everything going on outside at all hours of the day. Breakfast was lovely. There were a few restaurants within a 10 to 15 minute walk but you will need a car or taxi to get to the main town area

Faro Arenal was the highlight of my stay in La Fortuna! Yorleny (the owner) is an absolute gem! She helped to make my stay a memorable one. If you have a car in La Fortuna, don't worry about finding things to do. Yorleny helped to book my activities and communicate as my spanish isn't that great (her english is perfect) The hotel is a hidden oasis in the city. Its far enough off the beaten path but close enough to downtown. Dont be worried about the low price as compared to other hotels, it does not mean the place is low quality. Great value, great host, and great area. Absolutely no complaints, I would recommend anyone to stay here! PS, the breakfast and bird gardens are top notch!

The host was very friendly and upbeat. The area of Arenal is beautiful with lots of thermal springs.
