The Observatory Lodge is about 45mins drive from La Fortuna, Near Arenal National Park and el Castillo town.
The Arenal Observatory Lodge has a location that you just can't beat. It is very close to Arenal Volcano, an active volcano near La Fortuna, Costa Rica.
Also The Observatory Lodge has fantastic views of the Arenal Lake and surrounding forest.
The grounds are incredibly beautiful. It is a tropical garden you can wander through with many plants and flowers labeled.
The Rooms rooms with Volcano view are spacious, clean and nicely decorated with a small balcony. The 'deck' out in front of the restaurant is a great place to 'hang' and watch the volcano, birds, spider monkeys, howler monkeys, Coati and what ever else happens to be passing by.
There is a pool, hot tub and beautiful gardens to wander.
Free guided morning walk is included and you can learn and see a lot, especially if it is your first time here.
Note - All important - this is the 'lava side' - the side of the volcano where you could see rocks etc being ejected and coming down the mountain side. At night you would see this 'red' lava flow which can be pretty spectacular
