Hotel Lomas del Volcán

Hotel Lomas del Volcán

10/10 Excellent
"This place has a breathtaking view of the Arenal Volcano. A hike in the national park doesn’t even get you a close. The location was great, just 10 minutes from the hustle and bustle of La Fortuna. It felt like a jungle retreat more than a resort and the breakfast buffet was delicious."

"This place was just lovely. We loved the Monteverde region. A gem and often overlooked for the nearby La Fortuna/Arenal region. The staff here was attentive and incredibly friendly. The place had a grown up hostal vibe. Cannot recommend Camino Verde enough!"

10/10 Excellent
"Upon arrival we were upgraded to a villa with our own private swimming pool. It was a very pleasant surprise! Beds, sheets, and pillows were super comfy! AC was ice-cold. From the moment we parked our car, our luggage was hand-delivered to our room. Same when it was time to leave. Coffee/cocoa machine in the reception area was a very nice touch. Breakfast was phenomenal! We enjoyed everything about our visit."
