Handpicked boutique hotels
La Fortuna is the town at the foot of Arenal Volcano, a near-perfect cone that dominates the landscape. Around it are hot springs fed by volcanic heat, waterfalls, hanging bridges and wildlife in the surrounding rainforest. The best stays are the small lodges and hot-spring hotels outside town, many with volcano views.
The volcano is often covered in cloud, so views are best in the early morning. Book thermal spring visits ahead, and bring a rain jacket in any season.
