The property for what we paid was “okay” but had the potential to be a great resort . The room we were allocated was very tired and needed a refresh and lacked tea and coffee making facilities . I should note that there was an outdoor kitchen nearby but did not have milk , sugar etc. Some rooms are near a fast flowing river which is extremely noisy (this may not bother everyone). The resort is quite large and could do with being signposted. The pool area was good. Breakfast was great and it was an added perk that this was included in our rate. Strangely and this has never happened before, the hotel requested a USD500 deposit to be held which was super excessive and exceeded the cost of the hotel. The onsite spa is very reasonably priced and the massages are highly recommended.

Staff were attentive to any questions or issues we had and were there right away. We arrived in the dark and were told we would get a tour of the property the next day but never received that. We toured ourselves and the property is quite pretty, some construction happening while there. The restaurant was okay.. we had better food off the resort. The resort itself is gated which made it feel very safe and the rooms are very private which was nice!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Hotel property and grounds are quiet, secure and beautiful. Our room (Barracuda) is a very large two bedroom with plenty of space right above the river. Enjoyed morning and evenings on the patio with the river roaring in the background. Delicious daily breakfast included made for an easy start to each day. Great proximity to La Fortuna town and activities.

Really lovely hotel! The room was spacious, the property was beautiful and green, very close to the river. The staff was very friendly and the restaurant was fantastic. We stayed there for 3 nights and really enjoyed the breakfast and dinner. The restaurant staff was very helpful and gracious. Shout out to Summer from the restaurant who was very kind and friendly and provided excellent service and menu suggestions!

This property is a beautiful oasis, off the beaten path. The property is gated for security. The grounds are breathtaking. The room was large, comfortable and well maintained. The staff at check in was efficient and friendly. You get free breakfast with your room. It’s a generous meal with coffee, juice, fresh fruit, pastries along with your choice of a full delicious entree. The dining room is beautiful and inviting , with views of Arenal Volcano. But the highlight of Casa del Rio has to be the staff at the restaurant. They were kind and warm and most of all patient! I cannot recommend this hotel enough.

Wonderful experience! From the front desk staff to the incredibly attentive restaurant staff, the hospitality was wonderful. Pros: beautiful property and rooms, helpful and friendly staff, good food and plenty of areas to explore. Truly, the property is absolutely gorgeous and blows any negative out of the water. Cons: lack of gym, numerous construction projects going on in multiple locations around the property (which did not impact our stay with excessive noise, but it did make the gym and several walking paths off-limits), and our specific room (“Gallo” - perfect arrangement for our family of 4!) was situated directly below the restaurant, so we woke up every morning to cheerful families starting breakfast right at 6 am. All in all, these didn’t outweigh the amazing time we had and wonderful employees we encountered. Would definitely stay again! Pura vida! ❤️
