Arenal: La Fortuna · Costa Rica
A sense of the place
Why it's in the collection
Because the simple facts should be all the motivation anyone needs — villas in a national park at the foot of a volcano, each with its own spring-fed pool — and then the house goes further than it has to: restaurants and a spa of a quality the setting does not require, and a menu of adventures with no end, from elevated walkways through the canopy to the hike up the volcano itself, half the reason to come.
- At the edge of Arenal Volcano National Park, La Fortuna; independent house, adults only.
- Villas with spring-fed plunge pools, indoor and outdoor showers and handsome traditional furnishings; two restaurants; the spa of open-air pavilions in the treetop canopy; canopy walkways, river safaris and volcano hikes.
- Three MICHELIN Keys in the 2025 selection; holds five-star standing.
