This is an eclectic place near the lake in a very small town. The people who ran it were fantastic and the food was delicious and plentiful. They upgraded us for free. We were there during a storm and there were few other places to go to eat so we did feel like we were out in the middle of nowhere. Which might have been more fun if we’ve been able to do some hiking and driving that was impossible due to the rain.

We absolutely loved our stay. Our cabin was beautiful and cozy. We loved the paintings on the walls and cozy jungle vibes. The view was amazing. The food at the restaurant was so good as well and they were very accommodating to my garlic allergy. The staff were all very friendly. The outdoor pool and hot tub were beautiful as well. The view again amazing. We wish we’d stayed here longer.

The hotel has a stunning view and a wonderful restaurant. They went out of their way to accommodate my child with multiple food allergies. We loved the infinity pool and infinity hot tub pool.

Our whole family loved our stay at La Mansion Inn in the Arenal area. The hotel grounds were absolutely beautiful in every direction. We stayed in Villa #4, which had a King bed in one room and 4 twin beds in the other room. The hotel staff were very friendly, and there were incredible views from the pool. The only downside is the location in relation to other activites. It is located in the general Arenal area, but it is a bit secluded from the other main areas of Arenal (tours, restaurants, etc). That does make this hotel very peaceful and quiet, but there are not many options for dining other than on the property within 15 minutes drive. Overall we loved our two nights at La Mansion.

This property was great. We got there and the staff was very attentive and the place was clean. My husband's and I only concern....they need to expand their menu a bit. But overrall, stay was great. FYI, I would recommend if you want to do excursions by La fortuna, check elsewhere. This is a bit far out. I would stay here for a relaxing, calm getaway.

This is a beautiful property next to the lake in a very serene environment but there is nothing else to do around it. Food options are limited.

Property was beautiful - the only downside is it’s not walkable to any activities and many activities don’t pick up from the location. I would rent a car if I were to go back. The team found us transportation - it would have been more convenient to drive instead of having to pay each time you left the property.
Staff was wonderful , rooms were perfect, food was excellent , view was amazing - quiet and relaxing ..defintley would go back

La Mansion Arenal was a comfortable, quiet, and accomodating property for our family trip to Arenal. It is quieter than La Fortuna and afforded beautiful views of Lake Arenal. Everything we ordered from the restaurant was delicious and enjoyed in a beautiful open air setting. The staff was kind and accomodating in all aspects. Allan at the front desk offered great tips on tours and the best places to enjoy activities with the family. I would easily stay here again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a unique place to stay in Costa Rica.

The location of the property is its biggest feature. It is located scenically right above the lake. The gardens are gorgeous and well maintained and the infinity pool and jacuzzi are perfect for relaxing. The rooms themselves are nicer than camping cabins but they do still have cracks in the seams that allow nature to come inside. The beds were comfortable and air conditioning was a welcomed must. The staff were friendly and attentive. With the slight inconvenience of being a 40 min drive away from La Fortune, the solitude and views accommodated for that.

This property is magical. The view feels like a private oasis in the mountains. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The accommodations are exactly as pictured but the views are impossible to capture. The pool is a great with cool water and in room coffee and a fridge were unexpected treats! Housekeeping came each day to refresh and restock supplies to keep us tidy.
Horseback riding with Mingo booked through La Mansion was the best experience of our entire trip! It was just our family of 4 through the farmlands, mountains and rain forest. He took as at our speed and let us jog the horses a little. The animals were beautiful, well-behaved and well cared for! We got even more out of this experience because we speak some Spanish but you will love it either way. We spotted lots of toucans in the trees and the views with picture spots were great!
We enjoyed a light dinner and a full meal on two separate occasions and they were both good! Daily breakfast included in the rate made it easy to start the drives to activities easier. The staff in the restaurant are all super accommodating and friendly!
There is a Spanish restaurant w/in walking distance along with shops for snacks and coffee. We didn’t try them but were happy to see after reading earlier reviews. Our favorite spot was a pizza and burger place just a few minutes away. Eclectic and great vibe! Driving at night without street lights is tough on the curves so eating nearby felt important to us.

This was a wonderful stay. The view was spectacular. We sat on the porch every morning and evening to enjoy the birds. FYI, there are lots of bugs- I would recommend bug spray. The staff is perfect.

We enjoyed it very much !
This is a less hectic area in the other side of the lake around 45 minute drive from fortuna.
The food was good and the staff very kind!
The view of the sunset from our bungalow was breathtaking.
The room was really nice and clean, comfortable and quiet
The bar and the pool closed a little earlier than we expected and if you are in Costa Rica in vacation having the pool closed a 7 pm is a bummer especially with the weather.
But overall this is a place I would love to go back and will recommend.

It is a beautiful property with a great staff. The food is good and for breakfast more than enough. The pool was beautiful and linked to the view. It was high season so Jacuzzi a bit murky but understandable. Our only issue was air conditioning which went out on second night. They offered another room but would not accommodate our party. I would have hoped for more than 15$ at checkout for our inconvenience but we would return and we do recommend.

Beautiful place. The views from the hotel is amazing. The rooms are huge and has a lot of area. Property is pretty big and provides very good views of the lake area. Swimming pool is very good. Food can be an issue if u are staying for multiple days. There are not many varieties, especially for vegetarians. Also, the property is a bit far from other general tourist attraction areas and other places to eat. So car is needed to get around.

We had the most wonderful experience at La Mansion! Our room/casita was perfect for our family of 5, and the views from anywhere on the property were spectacular, especially at sunset. The service was outstanding - from the restaurant staff to the reception hosts - making us feel welcome the minute we arrived. Our reception host walked us to our room, explaining the area and even getting us a couple of Imperials when we mentioned a beer sounding good after a long day of driving and hiking. We highly recommend La Mansion and would definitely stay here again and again!

We loved our stay here. The views over the lake from the suites, restaurant and pool are stunning. The suites have so much character.
It is close to tourist attractions. 40 min to most things but the drive is easy and we found the view, privacy and country stay preferable to busier options.
The included breakfast was delicious and staff were very friendly and helpful. I would stay here again and highly recommend it.

Property grounds were beautiful. Excellent communication with staff members prior our arrival. Nice hotel ambiance and an amazing staff ready and willing to help with anything you might need. Fantastic food and drinks at their Le Bistro Restaurant. Definitely a place to disconnect and recharge.
On a side note. the first night of our arrival was my daughters birthday, I have previously requested for our room to be decorated and also I have ordered a Passion Fruit cake to celebrate. Communication with Cesar (the hotel host) was easy, with constant updates and follow ups. Upon our arrival, the room was beautifully decorated with balloons and flowers and the cake was freshly made the same day and looks exactly as I have requested. The cake, OMG!!!! the most delicious, moistest passion fruit cake we have ever had. It didn't lasted 5 min :). we share it among my friends and with the staff members whom sang Happy BDAY to my girl. What an amazing memory for all of us. Definitely a place that I would love to return one day.

We stayed at La Mansion for one night and absolutely loved it. The property is incredibly beautiful and the views are breathtaking - just as pictured in the photos. Our villa was so lovely - spacious and with a front balcony with the most amazing view. The staff is helpful and the food and drink options are wonderful.
The hotel is relatively isolated - there aren't amenities close by other than a little convenience store. We stayed here as a stopover en route from La Fortuna to Monteverde, and it was perfect for one night.
We would highly recommend staying at La Mansion!

Mansion was a well-kept gem with top-notch service, food and accommodations. I would highly recommend them without hesitation, and look forward to visiting again in the future. A gentleman named Chris sticks out as someone who always went above and beyond, and provided service with a smile.

The natural beauty and the houses are absolutely wonderful, the staff is the best I have ever experienced. My wife unfortunately broke her ankle the first night we stayed there, a freak accident, and the staff was so caring!
Their staff loaned us a wheelchair and crutches. The food was absolutely fantastic as was everything! Can't say enough good things about the resort and staff!!!
