Top Venado Caves Hotel Reviews

The Royal Corin Thermal Water Spa & Resort - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay! The staff were very nice and helpful. Our room was great and grounds are beautiful. Loved the pool and swim up pool bar. Would definitely recommend!"

Sangregado Lodge

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed Sangregado Lodge. Upon arrival, we were greeted and offered fresh coconut water, which was a nice touch. The highlight of this lodge is the spectacular view of the Arenal valley. The lodge had very few to no amenities but its location high up in the mountain made it feel more remote and less touristy than the resorts on the main La Fortuna road. The room was spacious and we slept comfortably. The lodge doesn’t have a restaurant so they partnered with the Lost Iguana resort (which is a 3 min drive) so that guests can have breakfast or dinner there. It worked well but if you’re looking for a hotel with amenities and the convenience of a restaurant, this doesn’t provide it. All in all, we enjoyed our stay here and felt the view from the balcony was second to none."

Tabacón Thermal Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at Tabacón for one night, and it was the perfect way to experience the property. The thermal hot springs are absolutely beautiful and feel very natural, with multiple pools and waterfalls surrounded by lush rainforest. It was peaceful, relaxing, and unlike any other hot springs we’ve visited. The grounds are immaculate, and the staff were warm, welcoming, and attentive throughout our stay. The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. My only wish is that we had stayed longer to fully enjoy everything the resort has to offer. If you’re visiting the Arenal area and want a luxury experience immersed in nature, Tabacón is well worth it."

Arenal Kioro Suites & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Arenal Kioro! I could not have been happier with our choice! The rooms were so nice and spacious, huge windows, comfortable and clean! The view of the volcano and hotel grounds was spectacular. The on site and off site hot springs were beautiful comfortable and everything I hoped for! I only wish our stay was longer to more fully enjoy everything the location had to offer. Every last one of the hotel staff was kind and helpful. I can’t wait to go back!"

Hideaway Rio Celeste

10/10 Excellent

"My family and I loved all of it. Is it perfect? No, but it did not have to be? In order to be fair I need to rate the individual aspects and put them in perspective. Hotel Overall the hotel is a 5 star. Its clean, well maintained. exceptional service, beautiful foliage and atmosphere. Location 5 (Rio Celeste Area) Rooms 5 Big, beautiful, clean and outdoor shower my favorite. Pool Area 5. Why? It is super clean. relaxing and Service is always available. Even if your are the only person or family at the pool area they have full service (Food/Drinks) Kantala Restaurant 4.5, Food 5, Star, Price 4.5 only because portions are small. If you have children and are at diner they will accommodate ordering from the lunch menu, just have to ask. What a wonderful accommodation!. Tours booked thru hotel: 5, Why? You pay a little bit more but they provide wonderful door to door service and the extra charge is worth it. Hotel Staff 5: We encountered wonderful staff in all areas, not one single complaint. I would say EXCEPETIONAL! We stayed for 5 nights. We will surely return and stay for longer within the next two years. I was able to relax and my wife and children would love to do it again. We will not chance changing hotel on our return simply because our experience was complete. The hotel's location is wonderful and there are many attractions nearby. Feel free to explore the area. You don't need car but I recommend one if you want to explore freely the surrounding, Simply WONDERFUL!"

Volcano Lodge Hotel & Thermal Experience

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay! The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and always willing to help. Both the regular pool and the hot springs pools were amazing and very well maintained. Everything was clean throughout the property, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The breakfast was also delicious, with a great variety of options. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!"
