Arenal Manoa & Hot Springs Resort

Arenal Manoa & Hot Springs Resort

10/10 Excellent
"My family of 4 had such a nice stay at the Arenal Manoa Resort. The grounds are absolutely stunning! The gardens are breathtaking and we enjoyed a lovely view of the volcano from our room. The room was spacious and clean and we received the nicest gift before our departure. The staff was so welcoming and friendly, especially Kevin who took the time to point out the sloths on the property and made sure we got good pictures of them. It was a little chilly during our stay but we still enjoyed the warm pools and hot spring pools. The breakfast buffet was impressive and delicious! A huge thank you to the staff for keeping the coffee flowing and for making our stay at Arenal Manoa so enjoyable! Would highly recommend staying at this resort. "
