“Sunset Inn sits perched perfectly for Arenal Volcano views. I appreciate the rustic, almost glorified camping feel, which truly connects you to the surrounding forest. The family who runs it are fountains of local knowledge and make a cracking breakfast - a welcome reward after navigating the steep access road.”
