“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.”

The road is challenging, but manageable with confidence. An SUV is preferable. Parking on site is available.

BedroomComfortable Tent

The bed was comfortable in the tent. A canopy over the top created shade and kept the tent dry.
