Beautiful Lake View, Nice room
We enjoyed our stay very much. The lake was beautiful and we explored the surrounding area driving to La Fortuna and back. The hotel was new or had been recently renovated. We had a large balcony with a great view of the lake. We only had soup at the restaurant but it was very good. The owners are very friendly and welcoming.

Fantastic hidden gem along Lake Arenal. We travelled to many places in Costa Rica and this was by far our favorite. Family run, very homey, cozy and friendly. The view is breathtaking, a view you won’t find anywhere else in Costa Rica. Staff and service is exceptional and the restaurant at the hotel is extremely delicious.

Hidden Gem by the Lake!
Despite a glitch with the booking, Cindy still offered me a wonderful room on the property. The room was very spacious and clean and also included a kitchenette and a patio. I had a very comfortable stay. The restaurant on the property was very good with a breathtaking view of the lake and wonderful fresh food and drinks. Due to the property being on the lake, I was able to go kayaking the the next morning. I would highly recommend the property for couples or a family who is looking for peace and seclusion. The property can be a bit difficult to find even with GPS as it does not show up on the navigation system. I would recommend traveling in the day to make it easier to find. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Vue magnifique sur le lac de la chambre. Très propre. Possibilité de baignade dans le lac. Bon restaurant qui ferme tôt! Tranquille et sécuritaire. Prix raisonnable.

kleines Hotel mit traumhaftem Blick auf Lake Arena
sehr freundliche Gastgeber, großzügige Zimmer mit Rundum- Verglasung, alles sehr neu und sauber. Die Familie bietet einen perfekten Service mit gesundem Essen in einem kleinen Restaurant direkt am See. Sehr faire Preise. Um den See herum gibt es viele Ausflugsmöglichkeiten und eine traumhafte Natur.
