Disliked: Amenities
They didn’t give us enough towels in our cabin for the number of people we reserved for. Had to go all the way back up to the reception from the cabin driving to get towels. They breakfast was okay and no restaurant or bar onsite. It was cool being in a cabin but expect to hear all the wild animals all night as the doors are glass and they animals are loud. Not many activities can be done onsite but there’s a trail you can follow from the lodge. Mostly tree views from our cabin. They don’t offer late check outs at all and were not very flexible in that regard but the gentleman at the front did offer to allow us to enjoy the pool for the day since we got in so late…. There’s a coffee machine but no filters apparently you’re required to request it if you need to make coffee….

The smaller villa we stayed in was beautiful, all external walls were glass and in the middle of nature. It had two bedrooms and two bathrooms. You don't really need to go elsewhere to see the rainforest or wildlife. The included breakfast was good. Tour buses do pick up from this location. However, it is highly recommended that you have a car if you stay here.

We liked the location and size of the Condo but the property felt old and tired. The restaurant on site was under construction and the condo was poorly maintained and had uncomfortable beds. The included breakfast was not as advertised. No bacon or sausage and cold food. We left and for d food in town that was way better A short walk to the waterfall was a great location however I would not recommend

Our stay at Arenal Waterfall Lodge was the BEST and MOST comfortable too. The air condition unit in our room was working very well and it met my standards. The waterfall place down the street was so Amazing and Premium quality TOP NOTCH DELICIOUS food AND wonderful drinks at RIO LOUNGE bar. The rio steak sandwich that I ate at the bar was the BEST I had in Costa Rica. Arlette and Steven both serviced us at the bar with pleasant and welcoming service.
