“Coati Arenal Lodge strikes a good balance: close enough to La Fortuna's main streets, yet removed for peace. The kitchenette in some rooms is a real plus for longer stays, and the 24-hour desk smooths arrivals and departures. I think it's a solid choice for those wanting a blend of independence and local access.”
