My wife and I just finished a four day stay at the Heliconias Nature Lodge, and in summary, it’s been near the top of our list of any place to stay in the world! Lots of places look good online, but rarely do you find one that exceeds everything you’ve seen or read about…this is one of those rare finds. The deluxe bungalow we stayed in was absolutely beautiful, and very private, tucked into the woods in the back corner of the property. Incredibly clean and comfortable, with a back deck that had two hammocks and looked right into the forest behind it. The two restaurants, one for breakfast and one for lunch and dinner, were beautiful venues, and the service and food were terrific. It was great being greeted each morning by Alejandro, who approached you like you had been friends for years. Tavo was there to greet us when we checked in and took great care of any needs we had throughout our stay, and stayed in touch with us when we had questions. The location was perfect, about 15 minutes outside La Fortuna, and a little further to the Arenal volcano, but what we enjoyed was how it was away from the more heavily populated tourist areas around Arenal. Finally, this review wouldn’t be complete without a comment about the Lodge itself. It sits in the middle of one of the more beautiful nature sites you’ll ever see. The owners have done an incredible job of creating a masterpiece of color and beauty all around you, and the walking trails are amazing. We had spent six days at the Costa Rican beaches prior to arriving at Heliconias, and our only regret was that we hadn’t planned a longer visit to the Lodge. We can’t say enough good things about our experience here and can highly recommend the Lodge to everyone!

The perfect stay! We stayed the night in the suite room which was stylish, had it's own balcony, a very comfortable bed, great shower, an enormous television, AC, free coffee and a mini bar. It was like a hotel room and had loads of space. It was quiet while also being in a hostel where you could mix and take part in activities. The food was brilliant, the dogs were cute and the staff were really friendly and helpful (and taught us loads of Spanish!). There was a pool and even a spa on site that had great deals (we sadly couldn't go). On checkout they stored our bags until we were ready to move to our next accommodation and we got a Selina bracelet as a souvenir for our stay.
