We started our stay in Costa Rica at Arenal Springs. We booked through Latin Destinations; and we thought it was a great place to stay. No bugs (keep your door closed), no smells, just a lovely location and a chance to escape from the hectic pace. The concierge service was friendly and connected us with affordable guided tours of the... more

My sister and I enjoyed our stay at Arenal Springs Resort. The cabins are simple, nice and clean (although I wouldn't want to stay near the back of the property as it would be far to walk!) I noticed some reviews mentioned bugs and smells -- we thankfully had neither! Our view from the porch (loved the rocking chairs) was... more

Someone else mentioned that the rooms smelled of cat pee and that was the first thing I noticed when I walked in the rooms! The amount of bugs present was pretty annoying and we had to spray our beds with bug spray every night before going to bed. This was true of most hostels and low end hotels in CR... more

Once we arrived we were all in awe at how green and lush the resort property and all of the area was. Staff were... more

Rooms are good-sized to accommodate a family of 4, and in-room amenities are just what one needs - not more, not less. Restaurant is ample and provides a nice of the... more

My husband and I stayed at the Arenal Springs Resort for three days during our vacation. We did have a car, so I cannot comment on the tourista bus connections, but I can tell you that by 8AM, the buses were loaded and on the move. People told us that the Conceirge was very helpful, but with a car and... more
