Immerse Yourself in Nature at Amor Arenal
The lush rainforest around Arenal Volcano is the perfect background for a secluded Costa Rican vacation, and even more so if you are pampered in comfort.
Awe-inspiring views of the volcano, exuberant nature, hiking trails, and luxurious cabins are all part of this experience. Amor Arenal is a destination to enjoy the best of both worlds!
Amor Arenal is a boutique hotel hidden in the rainforest, tucked in the folds of Arenal Volcano. It honors its name, showcasing its love (Amor) for the natural wonders of the Arenal while providing world-class service.
Rustic Luxury & Nature in Amor Arenal
Waking up to the songs of birds is just the beginning of a typical day in Amor Arenal. Each casita (or villa) is designed to have the coziness of a wooden cabin in the jungle, and it’s constructed with materials and adorned with colors that bring up the forest outside.
Large windows, high ceilings, and open spaces enhance your connection with the surrounding nature.
Step to the terrace to admire the canyons covered in green while peeking at the iconic Arenal Volcano on the horizon. Watch out for the monkeys and birds that travel across the treetops around you.
The terrace has a private plunge pool with warm mineral water ideal for relaxation and chilly afternoons. Enjoy a cocktail and admire the view from the deck to the songs of frogs and crickets.
Amor Arenal wants you to be comfortable, so it provides top-of-the-line amenities, fine linens, and extra-large pillows for a good night’s sleep.
Enjoy Plenty of Outdoor Perks
Even if it’s tempting to stay in the room all day, the hotel invites you to step out and enjoy the property. The main facilities were built to merge with the trees and flowers that peek everywhere. They also provide panoramic views of the San Carlos Valley and the volcano.
Take up the hiking trails that run across the forest to catch a glimpse of the iconic flora and fauna of the area.
Discover clear water streams dripping along the rocks, and visit the two hidden pools with heated mineral spring water. Then, hike up and down the canyons, or take a guided horse tour to picnic among the hills.
The Arenal Volcano National Park is also close by, and if you want to pump it up, there are adventure tours in the area.
Arenal is known as the adventure capital of Costa Rica, and there are all kinds of options: zip lining, whitewater rafting, and canyoning are just some options of what to do.
World-Class Dining & Wellness
In addition to natural wonders and comfortable rooms, Amor Arenal has well-appointed facilities to enhance the experience.
Meals, drinks, and snacks are not a concern at Amor Arenal. Just as the hotel showcases its love for the area, it also does for its food. There are two on-site restaurants and a wet bar where you can try an all-organic, farm-to-table menu that meets international standards.
The Tuanis Wet Bar is in a pool of warm mineral water. Relax, enjoy the view, and socialize. El Rancho is open for all three meals. Try some homemade gluten-free bread to enjoy something truly unique.
La Jaranita is the on-site gastropub, also known as the “fun zone” and tapas specialty restaurant of the hotel.
Here you can have a gourmet journey into different styles and tastes. Then, head to La Jaranita at night to enjoy the musical offers. Live music, DJs, karaoke, and even complimentary Latin dance lessons during the happy hour, depending on the night.
