My partner and I went to Costa Rica mostly to surf but decided to stop by lake arenal on the way back to San Jose and we are so grateful we did! This lodge and the majestic ceiba tree that it overlooks are magical. The entire property is thriving with wildlife. Sergio, the owner, is so welcoming and knowledgeable about the local ecosystem. Breakfast is also to die for—both the food and the view are top notch.

This B&B was very relaxing, clean and comfortable and has a beautiful large garden. One of the highlights was Carlos who is a wonderful host and chef cook! The breakfast was delicious and we even managed to spot some toucans from our breakfast table. We would recommend this place to anyone.

A Hidden Paradise in Arenal – Unforgettable Stay! Villas Santa Maria is an absolute treasure! From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed into a little slice of paradise. The property is stunning, surrounded by lush greenery, breathtaking mountain views, and a peaceful atmosphere that makes it the perfect getaway. The villas are beautifully designed—spacious, spotless, and thoughtfully equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The attention to detail in both the accommodations and the hospitality truly sets this place apart. One of the highlights of our stay was the incredible breakfast prepared by Paul and Carol. Every morning, we were treated to a delicious homemade feast with fresh, high-quality ingredients. From perfectly cooked eggs and crispy bacon to fresh tropical fruit, homemade banana bread and the best locally sourced coffee, each meal was a delightful way to start the day. Their warm and welcoming nature made the experience even more special, making us feel right at home. The location is ideal—just a short drive to Arenal’s main attractions yet tucked away in a tranquil setting that allows you to truly relax and reconnect with nature. Whether you're here for adventure or relaxation, Villas Santa Maria is the perfect choice.

It all started with a nice and warm welcome from Huberth and Anyara. The place was super clean and had everything you needed to be considered a Home-Kitchen and cookware, clean bedsheets, bathroom amenities, towels...everything. The rooms were very spacious, and the living room had a lot of natural light. We had morning coffee on the balcony while enjoying nature. Also included is a very nice pool which we used every single day. It's an must have for all people visiting Costa Rica. We had a really great time.
