אהבנט
Pros:

המלון מהמם ביופיו, בעיקר הגינות והשטחים הסובבים.
מקלחת גדולה מאוד וברמה מאוד טובה.
החדרים בקומה שניה עם נוף טוב יותר להר הגעש..

Cons:

ארוחת הבוקר מוגשת במלון סמוך, מגוונת אבל לא היתה לטעמינו..

Perfect intro to Costa Rica with comfort, convenience, and nearby experiences
Pros:

We LOVED this location because it felt quaint and cozy, while being immersed in wildlife. The gardens were well maintained, beautiful, and immersed you in wildlife. We had a private patio with pool which we enjoyed with our 11-month old baby girl. The drive to the breakfast spot at arenal oasis took 1 minute and the walk to the restaurant allowed us to see and hear such amazing wildlife. Our room and facilities were so clean. We were very close to coffee/cacao tours, thermal springs, fortuna waterfall, nature tours, and of course the arenal volcano.

Cons:

I didn’t like that we only stayed 3 nights- we wish we could’ve stayed longer.

Ruhige Lage & fantastische Aussicht
Pros:

Wir schätzten besonders die ruhige Lage etwas ausserhalb des Zentrums. Das Zimmer auf der ersten Etage war gross und hatte einen fantastischen Blick auf den Vulkan. Das Bett war etwas unbequem, was sich leicht gebessert hat, nachdem die Matratze nach der ersten Nacht auf unseren Wunsch umgedreht wurde. Alfonso am Empfang war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Frühstück und den Pool hatten wir nicht genutzt.

Cons:

Der Wasserdruck in der Dusche war sehr spärlich. Auf dem Balkon hätten wir uns einen Ständer für die nassen Badesachen gewünscht. Ein inklusives Fühstück wär in der Preisklasse angemessen.
