Suwa Villa exceeded my expectations, they were so accommodating the property was beautiful, friendly staff, great location! I would definitely recommend!
Everything about this spot is great. Walking distance to main square, lots of food options, and accommodations were incredible. The room was clean and private with a common area and shared jacuzzi. Staff was very welcoming and made us feel at home

Suwa Villa Arenal is a lovely small lodge right in town. Staff is wonderful and very helpful. Rooms are small but elegant. Very pleasant common area, nice amenities.
This place is great! I would definitely stay here again! It’s clean, safe, easy to check into, close to tour meeting points, restaurants and markets, but far enough to be quiet.

The best part of my trip to La Fortuna was staying at this hotel. The rooms were nicely furnished, absolutely spotless, A/C was extremely efficient, and having laundry on site was very useful. Rooms had Smart TVs with Netflix and other streaming channels.
This is the only place I will stay at in La Fortuna going forwards.
