Arenal Hotels

La Fortuna de San Carlos is considered one of the most exotic and popular sites in Costa Rica thanks to its imposing host: the majestic Arenal Volcano. Thousands of people from all over the world travel to our country to see this gigantic volcano up close, which is impetuous and strong due to its perfect conical shape. Although it is not active, volcanologists say it could re-display its spectacular fiery lava eruptions at any time. During its last periods of activity, this volcano, which is located in the Arenal Volcano National Park, has not represented any danger to its inhabitants or to tourists. Due to its popularity, you can find in Arenal Costa Rica hotels a variety of types and budgets: there are luxurious high-end hotels, although the majority are lodge-ecological accommodations surrounded by nature. Remember: Lake Arenal is another attraction very close from the volcano. It’s an artificial reservoir that serves as a hydroelectric dam, formed after the construction of a dam in 1979. There you can take catamaran and kayak tours.

Arenal has some of the best hotels and resorts in Costa Rica. From budget-friendly options in the town of La Fortuna to resorts in the outskirts of the National Park, Arenal has something for everyone. Learn more about Arenal hotels, B&Bs, lodges and more with your personal concierge.
