We liked our stay at the Arenal Montechiari Hotel. It was different from a usual hotel because of the small, individual houses. Positive things about the houses are ...they have air conditioning, are clean, have a room safe for valuables, have a TV, and the breakfast is adequate. Every unit has a small porch with two chairs on it. The price for staying there is very reasonable, and the grounds are pretty with flowers. The staff was friendly and helpful. Negative things are... the small houses are very rustic. You can see light between the boards on the door and there was a gap under the door. Despite that, we did not see any insects in the unit. Our house had two beds that were tightly squeezed into the room. There wasn't a chair for lounging. The small houses are very close together and conversations can be heard from people outside.

Beautiful! Large shower, comfy bed, adorable towel arrangements everyday by maid service, breakfast included! WiFi not available in the rooms so you can disconnect, but is available where breakfast is served so you can map out your day. We loved being close to everything we wanted to see. An adventure of a lifetime!

This Arenal Montechiari is a great deal for price conscious travelers it’s an older property and a little rustic, but very clean with exceptional service. It’s perfect for tourists in that it’s walking distance to many restaurants in downtown La Fortuna. Almost all of the local sightseeing activities offer shuttles to and from the hotel. Great breakfast too! No wifi in rooms but is available in reception and the restaurant. Would definitely stay again.

Fantastic property! Close enough to La Fortuna activities, yet away from the busy streets in downtown. Breakfast was great, more than many other hotel options. 2 days of rain so we didn't have volcano views but our stay with our daughters was great!

This property is ecological. I love waking up and hearing the birds. The only downfall is the internet service, which can only be used in the reception area. There was no shampoo or conditioner, only soap. Pool towels are given at the reception desk.

Lovely place good price

The property is very beautiful the plants on the property are gorgeous. The place feeds the birds in the morning so there are always plenty of birds to see right outside your door. The staff were helpful and friendly. We were told they do not have queen beds so we were given a villa with two double beds.

Check in was super quick, everything was laid out and ready to go upon arrival. The property is extremely well maintained, quiet and serene. The security guard does regular walks of the proterty which was very comforting for a young family. Had a wonderful meal at Restaurante Fortunena. Service was amazing, have never seen food come so quickly. Did the Mistico Bridges, it was an unbelievable experience. The entire experience is highly recommended.
