    basic amenities
    highway noise

    stayed in a supposed ‘Double Room Lake View’ but lacked basic amenities like a fridge, which would have been nice for the price! The cottages were also so close to the loud highway, it was distracting—what a letdown! I expected a special welcome gesture but got nothing, I just couldn’t give them a good review, sadly.

    gourmet dining

    magical, magical, magical

    We experienced a magical atmosphere with fine views from our One-Bedroom Bungalow. The morning breakfast was served family-style, allowing us to engage with other guests and share delicious food as we took in the lovely surroundings. Chef Eyal introduced each gourmet dish at dinner

    do recommend 😍🥰

    noise disturbance

    Cottages near the highway experienced noise from passing trucks which occasionally disrupted the peace. A fridge in the room would have been a useful addition, though not critical.

    unique setting
    poor wi-fi
    limited parking

    lush jungle setting, open air shower, themed decor

    The Wi-Fi signal in this jungle hotel is nearly non-existent!!! If you plan to stay here, be prepared to disconnect completely!!! Also, the parking situation is less than ideal with limited spaces made worse by tight corners.

    themed decor
    highway noise

    The themed decor in our room was truly remarkable and added a unique touch to our stay, making it feel special and immersive in the jungle atmosphere.

    Unfortunately, the proximity of the cottages to the highway resulted in occasional noise disturbances from passing trucks, which detracted from the tranquil setting.

    The themed decor in my room was truly remarkable, creating a special atmosphere during my stay. Breakfast with views over the lake was a highlight, and I was impressed by Chef Eyal's creative dinner offerings. However, the noise from the nearby highway occasionally disrupted the tranquility of my experience.

    extraordinary seafood

    It was just an optimal selection for a weekend trip in Nuevo Arenal with great value-to-price ratio. The chef prepared extraordinary dishes that still linger in my mind, especially the seafood special! Make sure to check the road directions before arriving as it can be tricky.

    delicious food
    helpful staff
    highway noise

    Had a great time with friends! Chef Eyal's food was top-notch. don't miss his special desserts. Natalia was so helpful, giving tips on local spots. We visited the nearby lake for some fun in the sun. Just a heads up, the Google Maps directions to the hotel were a bit off, so keep that in mind.

    We experienced some noise from the highway which distracted us a bit during our stay.

    inviting atmosphere
    delicious breakfast
    cramped parking

    cozy environment but parking could be better

    The atmosphere felt like a warm, inviting home. The breakfast views over the lake complemented the delicious meals. The open-air shower added a wonderful touch to the lush jungle experience.

    Parking could be better, as it felt cramped at times.
