Lost Iguana Resort and Spa

Amazing location and view of the volcano from our balcony and room. The giant outdoor tub with jets was nice in lieu of a hottub at the pool and loved by the kids. There was plenty of space in the room for the 5 of us with 2 large beds and the mini kitchenette. Short walk to breakfast and the pool. Nice umbrellas provided. The included breakfast was wonderful with the egg/omelet bar daily. We loved the family (20+) coati that lived on the grounds and made many appearances. We also saw a wild boar, toucans and other birds, lizards on the premise. The trails with bridges (accessible from the hotel, not the separate Hanging Bridges) was wonderful to explore and walk to from our hotel room. Swim up pool bar with smoothies was fun for the kids too! Large porch balcony with rocking chairs was very relaxing.

Lovely location with beautiful views o Arenal Volcano. Breakfast buffet had good variety of options, excellent omelette station. Relaxing pool area after a steamy morning of wildlife searching. Two lovely leather, locally made rocking chairs on the balcony.

Fantastic views of the volcano and comfy beds and loved the rocking chairs on the balcony which overlooked the gardens that were teaming with hummingbirds. The pools were lovely and the bar a real social hub after 4pm each day. You'll need a car unless you're going to only go out on hotel organised trips - this shouldn't detract from booking this amazing hotel!! It's 5 mins drive from Mistico Bridges (just to give you an idea of how far out of La Fortuna it is). Paved winding roads from the airport - take a car as very easily drivable. Loved it and would stay again.

- First and foremost, the staff were a breath of fresh air and very friendly faces each and every day :) We had great waiters for breakfast and dinner, mostly a a few shout outs to Derek and Ronaldo! Great guys and really funny, as well as being professional too. - The pool area was a nice spot to spend a day to chill out and enjoy some sunshine. We made sure to make the most of the daily happy hours from 4-5pm and the cocktails were tasty. Having a cool pool, plus a warm pool, was a good change-up as well. - Best view of the Arenal volcano we had from our room! This includes actually doing the 1968 trail where we walked around it. Be aware, one day it’s a clear, wonderful view and the next day, you’ll wake up to complete cloud cover and it’s vanished haha. - We spotted a Coati on our patio upon our arrival which was a very dry warm welcome from a local. Throughout the days we also watched a handful of Hummingbirds hovering around. We loved being back in the rainforest after a few days in mountains.

Absolutely beautiful spot in the rainforest close enough to the tourist activities, but distant enough for a complete disconnect. The view of the Arenal Volcano from our room was stunning. Facilities made of exquisite woodwork. Lots to see. Great pool area. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful.
