Overview

Arenal Observatory Lodge is one of the closest hotels to the Arenal Volcano. The view to this colossal is impressive. You will defiantly be impressed when you enter your room, the sense of peace and tranquility can be felt in every corner. On a clear night you will have the chance to awe at the incredible lava show that the Volcano shares with everyone. You will see the large boulders emerge from the Volcano cone, leaving behind a glow of lava and at the same time your heart will beat with every breath and rumble that the Volcano makes. The mere opportunity of being able to witness such a spectacular show put on by Mother Nature is a Blessing in itself.

You wake to the chirps and singing of small birds, breathing in the sweetness of the Rainforest will rejuvenate you in a most remarkable way. The hotels gardens are full of bright flowers that attract a variety of birds and butterflies. The flora and fauna that surround the hotel, the untouched forest that is full of life and the Volcano that never seams to rest, all brought together in one place to guarantee its guest a balanced feeling of adrenaline, admiration and a sense of inner peace.

The restaurant boasts an incredible view to Arenal Lake and the volcano, again keeping you in balance with your surroundings. A swimming pool in the middle of the rainforest, a Jacuzzi that melts you into your surroundings and natural hiking trails for those wanting to emerge themselves even closer to nature. All of this in one place, one hotel that offers so much excitement yet in a peaceful and harmonious way.

Observatory Lodge Arenal is a Mountain hotel offering its guest 37 rooms to choose from. Divided into 4 building, yet all surrounded by the rainforest and beautifully manicured gardens with full view to the Volcano, allowing all its guest the opportunity to enjoy their experience with the Colossal "Arenal Volcano".
