Hotels with Swimming Pools in Ventanas

"The unit was nice. But the driveway from reception to the road to the unit was terrible. We got a flat tire from it."

"PLUSES: Surroundings are gorgeous and lots of trails and things to do; full of birds for Birders, and various other animals. The staff was (mostly) professional, knowledgable and friendly. The grounds and rooms are very clean. The included breakfast is quite tasty with a variety of options. CONCERNS: The property is isolated, as it is 40 mins w/ no traffic or road issues to La Fortuna and other activities outside the property. Some may love this. Dinners were more of a 3/5. Something I overlooked is that there is no air-conditioning, though this is on me for not realizing. During the warmer "dry" season we would have preferred air-conditioning. PS: For all of the Arenal area (not just the Observatory) if driving from the West (say from Tamarindo beach area), once you hit Lake Arenal, it's about a 1 and 1/2 hour drive to the Observatory, and 2 hours+ to La Fortuna, and this is with no road issues and little traffic."

"We didn’t stay long enough to enjoy the property. But it was a nice place. I didn’t like how far parking was from the property, and that my luggage had to roll through rocks."

"We enjoyed the whole stay at this property. It’s absolutely beautiful, friendly and a perfect location to enjoy the nature."

"Small but has everything you need! The location and the views to the Volcano were perfect!"

"La comida de los restaurantes con reserva excelente pero el bufet deja mucho que desear ya que los platos no están bien elaborados y con poco sabor. La atención del personal excelente, fue lo mejor, siempre amables y atentos. Al menos en mi habitación habían una cantidad muy grande de mosquitos (mate al menos 30 - 40), otros insectos pequeños y hasta una pequeña cucaracha. El baño no olía bien, y la puerta del baño deja pasar toda el agua cuanto uno se baña por lo que hay que secar todo el piso luego."

"Great buffet for breakfast. Lots of fresh fruit!"

"Room and property are beautiful. They offer breakfast but wasn't able to try it due to our scheduling didn't coordinate with their 7am start time. That is one thing I would change is maybe have breakfast start at 6 for people going on tours so they can eat first. They did provide one day a to go box the night before with sandwich and fruit which was nice. The pool and hot tub were relaxing and they have a .25 mile hike thru woods on their property that is awesome. The view of volcano was exceptional."

"Love the hotel the service very exepcional and very clean "
