Top Cantón Upala Hotel Reviews

La Mansion Inn Arenal
8/10 Good
"We had a one night stay at this hotel and it made for a good stopover. The chalets were comfortable. Ours had a double and twin room connected by a bathroom, and had a sofa and fridge. The beds were comfy and with netting over the windows, you could open them to let a breeze in and hear the frogs without worrying about insects. Each chalet has a private terrace with a beautiful view of the lake. The swimmimg pools were a real highlight, with an amazing backdrop of the lake. The warm pool was a real treat. Breakfast was basic and we decided to go elsewhere for our evening meal. Don't bother with the path down the lake, it is a bit underwhelming and litter-strewn and was very boggy in places after the rain!"

Best Western El Sitio Hotel
8/10 Good
"It's a nice place to spend the night while waiting for a flight. However, the food could have been much better. Example of this was the bland and large portion of food. I wouldn't recommend the restaurant."

Malekus Mountain Lodge
10/10 Excellent
"Absolutely magical. Pictures do not do Malekus Mountain Lodge justice - it's truly so special and lovely, a work of art not just a place to stay. Roger and Rosey were kind, attentive hosts. The location was beautiful. We had wonderful breakfasts on site and a fantastic dinner just 600 meters away. With only 7 rooms and an intimate feel, this would be a perfect place for a family reunion, small destination wedding, or friends trip. Do know going in that the rooms are small and intimate, and there is no air-conditioning. However, the climate was temperate and the rooms and lodge are well-suited and comfortable. We loved everything about our stay - except for that we didn't get to stay longer! Already hoping to come again!!"

Blue River Resort & Hot Springs
10/10 Excellent
"Beautifully maintained property and super clean. We loved our complimentary breakfast each morning. Staff was very kind. We felt very relaxed there and enjoyed our stay in the country."

Origins Lodge
10/10 Excellent
"Most beautiful property I’ve ever stayed. Breathtaking views. Amazing flora and fauna. Amazing sounds. Beautiful lodge. The best!"

Cataratas Bijagua Lodge
10/10 Excellent
"The grounds were beautiful"

Kakao Lodge & Garden Río Celeste
10/10 Excellent
"The nicest people and wonderful hosts. I mentioned that we would be celebrating our daughter’s bday while we were there and they knocked on the door with a huge slice of chocolate cake and a candle and sang Feliz cumpleanos. It was the sweetest thing and so special for our family. It was such a kind gesture and it set the tone for the rest of our time there. Breakfast was a lovely production. We entered the dining room and they just started bringing out entree after entree, fruit, eggs, gallo pinto, pancakes, jam, fresh juice and yogurt. It was a genuine Tico experience. The hotel is on a side street and walking around you get to see everyday life. It was fun to people watch and explore. The grounds were lovely. We saw a blue jeans tree frog."

La Anita Rainforest Ranch
10/10 Excellent
"This was a great place to truly experience the beauty of this part of Costa Rica. It is a long drive and one must be careful to take the right roads but we had a great experience and wish we could have stayed longer."

0ski Logde Rincón de la Vieja
8/10 Good
"Honestly, Senora Elma was amazing to my children and I. Although many of the staff we encountered did not speak our language, they were patient with us and did not make us feel uncomfortable. There are many attractions close by, as well as food options. Breakfast is included, ans they were willing anf able to accommodate us with our plant-based meals. The pool was not avaolable for use, but there were so many other things to do. The staff even offered to take us to the attractions. Please note that Lunch and dinner are not included, and there are no prices listed, so ask in advance. Also, please meals are not made to order- you get what is being made for that meal at that time, so everything is fresh!"
