The staff at LaPradera was wonderful. They went out of their way to help us with every question we had. They even booked us a zip line tour. The facilities and pool area are first rate. We stayed in one of the bungalows and it was comfortable and spacious. Overall, it was a wonderful experience to stay there.
Beautiful views, good location

We stayed at Hotel La Pradera for 4 nights and enjoyed a sunny view of the green side of Arenal Volcano for 2 of those days.  (keep in mind that if you are coming here strictly for the volcano view, nature may be against you).  The grounds/gardens are well kept and make for an enjoyable atmosphere.  We were in a cabin with our own porch with 2 chairs, a table, and 2 rockers and a beautifu l view (on sunny days).  As we were 3 people it would have been nice to have a third chair for the table.  For the most part the hotel and our room were in good shape although small repairs were needed in our shower and other hotel areas.  Our room was clean and comfortable.  A small note:  the hotel only has bath-size towels - no hand towels or wash cloths.

The staff, and locals, were all friendly and helpful and the front desk booked a couple of tours for us.  We ate in the restaurant a couple of times and the food was good but not spectacular.

We enjoyed the location of the hotel very much as we were a 5-10 minute walk to small restaurants, souvenir shops, and a grocery store.  If you aren't afraid to walk and want to get off the beaten path, you can walk about an hour to a cacao farm for a Chocolate Tour, or an hour plus to La Fortuna Waterfall,  both of which we did and thoroughly enjoyed.  Also we walked about 1/2 hour to a site for a Night Walk which was great.  We found that walking afforded us a different view of the area that wouldn't be seen speeding by in a tourist bus or taxi.

The only down fault, and it was small, was that wi-fi was only available at the restaurant and reception area and not in our cabin.  When you travel with the younger generation this is a desired feature.

All in all a good stay at La Pradera.
