This is the second time I have stayedd at Manoa. The first time was about a year ago. MY first stay was great as well with the exception of the food. I dont know who they had as their chef back then but outside of the breakfasts the food was so bad I preferred to drive back into town and... More

We had originally planned to stay at a different hotel but it was booked when I tried to make reservations so we decided, instead, to stay at the Arenal Manoa Hotel. We were not disappointed. The property was great, the rooms were big, clean, and bright. Our private patio was surrounded by well manicured flowering plants and shrubs and had... More

This property is really amazing with the tropical plants and fauna and river everywhere and well maintained. We stayed here for three nights and the view of the Arenal volcano from the hotel at almost every angle was so wonderful. The staff are so friendly, cheerful, and helpful it made our stay feel so welcoming. In comparison to another four... More

If I were to complain at all, it would be with the beds and the TV. The beds could be a bit better and updating... More

The Arenal Manoa was our first hotel while traveling through Costa Rica. The grounds are gorgeous and well maintained. The view of the volcano is just as portrayed in the pictures and you can view it from most any room. The rooms were very spacious, but the bedding could use some updating. The bedspreads were slightly stained and the sheets... More

We stayed 4 nights in room #102 and had an absolutely fabulous time. We watched the birds every morning. 102 is close to the check in area and a hike to the pool and restaurant. It was great for bird watching.
