Bright, comfortable lodge with two pools in a great location overlooked by Arenal volcano.

Volcano Lodge has first-class views, surrounded by dense tropical rainforest, looking out towards the spectacular cone of Arenal volcano.

The bright, modern guest rooms are set around two swimming pools and a pleasant garden. Each room has a private bathroom and terrace, and many enjoy outstanding views of Arenal.

The hotel offers many adventurous excursions including hikes to waterfalls, kayaking, river rafting, horse riding, canyoning and quad bike rides.
