We really liked this hotel. Our family of four had plenty of space in our 3 bed room. Plenty of room to move around. The lush greenery everywhere made it feel like you are in the middle of nature. It was lovely. Very clean and well maintained. Would definitely stay there again.

From the moment we stepped foot on the property , the front desk was so pleasant and helpful, we arrived early so we had to wait to check in but the young lady directed us to town, to spend time while our room was ready. Breakfast was made to order, not continental like other hotels. The grounds were beautiful, and the room was clean. But overall the service and hospitality by the staff was amazing!

The nicest people! So helpful! Every day house keeping would make the bathroom towels into the shape of different animals. It’s just the little things they did that made a big difference.

I really enjoyed my stay at Hotel Tangara Arenal. I booked the bungalow option, and it was a great choice. The bungalow was surrounded by plants and trees, with outdoor seating perfect for relaxing or reading while it rained—and when it rains, it pours! The metal roof made the sound of the rain noticeable, but I found it soothing, like white noise. We visited during the wet season and had the usual afternoon showers, but it never bothered us. The room was spacious, with a smart TV, mini fridge, and work area. Even with another bungalow nearby, we barely saw or heard anyone. The hotel is easy to find on the main road to town. You’ll need a car or taxi to get around, but since we had a car, it was simple. Breakfast was included and served plated at the on-site restaurant—we ate there daily and also enjoyed dinner one evening. The food was tasty. The location felt safe and quiet, with a police station just a short distance away. The only area for improvement is the shower. The handheld showerhead didn’t have a holder, and there wasn’t space to set toiletries. Adding a mount and some shelving would make it more comfortable. Overall, this hotel offers great value, a peaceful atmosphere, and convenient access to activities. I’d definitely recommend it.

Lovely property, spacious rooms, beautiful landscaping and an excellent on-site restaurant which is not owned by the hotel, but independently operated. We ate breakfast there every mornng, and one evening had dinner there. Great food each time. Owner very kind and helpful. Mades left beautiful towel scupltures on our beds every day which was a delightful surprise. Would definitely stay here again.

For the price, it was a comfortable room and I enjoyed the breakfast. The bathroom could use some storage/shelves and the shower was difficult to use. We had to google how to use it! To get hot water the water pressure needs to be down low. You couldn’t stand under a stream of water as there was no holder for the shower head on the wall any higher than waist level. The location is a close drive to restaurants and shops, but not really walkable. There was a fair amount of road noise. The staff were helpful and I enjoyed having paid laundry service available.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay in a bungalow at Hotel Tangara Arenal. The bungalow was beautifully furnished with everything we needed and the lush tropical trees surrounding it gave us privacy. We felt like we were on our own private retreat. For our free breakfast, the Tangara offered a breakfast menu with several great choices. We were really impressed with that! We also ate at the restaurant the first night and the seafood pasta was excellent. We had a great experience at the Hotel Tangara Arenal and would definitely stay here again.
